but is there any way that we can choose select bloggers to show up as gray until we approve them? Some of the shit that gets passed off as legitimate around here is repulsive, and frankly, I'm getting a bit tired of it. With all the sidebar cross marketing, it is too easy to end up accidentally straying into the intellectual wastelands and getting pissed off at what lies in wait there. I mean, "racism bad, racist killer cop kills, racist team owner is bad man, Kill all the racists! 100 worst white men, ranked." Shit, racism is racism, white black indian mexican arabic, doesn't fucking matter. Yes there are bad people out there, many are white, many are black etc, etc, ek set er fuckin rah.

If you are going to all the trouble to protect us from commenters, can we at least get some protection from the staff as well?

Protip: Look at sidebar. Something catch your eye? Is the title properly capitalized? Now mouse over and read the link preview to confirm mainpage. If you don't like reading from a particular mainpage, don't click the link.

Well, I know that, but there are sometimes when I may go any given mainpage, but there are authors there that if I know a story is by them, I will not bother clicking through. I am simply hoping that gawker inc gives us the same approval rights for bloggers. As I see it, it would make a lot of sense to track which of their authors have higher approval ratings than others, and it makes sense to authors as they can cite percentages of mainpage accounts that have them approved. win/win/win as I see it.

Back in the days when the Internet was flat and we had to compile uphill both ways in the snow, we had these things called killfiles. Oh, how I wish for those back some days.
