But seriously...

This blog was started as an experiment and depending on who you talk to it's either a good thing or the most evil thing since  link-testing.

For good or ill, it has found an audience and in amongst the purile garbage has been some valid comment and the odd little scoop.

We have kept it pretty much completely Open Source. In four months only 3 incoming posts have been removed. Two because of legal advice and one this morning because it was completely fucked and negative and a bad way to start the first week back at work.

This year nzcreativecircle.blogspot.com is going to be more agressively administered.

There are 3 ways to do this:

1. Status Quo +. Anyone can post anonymously, or comment anonymously, but if the editor deems it  offensive or  we think there could be a legal niggle involving loss of the family house, we'll remove the post. That's what Lynchy does.

2. Registration. Anyone can still post anonymously, but you have to apply for a pseudonym and use it every time you post.

3. Formal membership. Which is never going to work.

We favour option 1. What do you think?
