Blog posts....censorship?

So apparently some in the community are under the impression that blog posts in this community are censored - especially if the post is critical of Microsoft.

That is *not* the case.

However, anonymous posts do require a moderator to approve them. So...if the moderator goes on vacation, the posts aren't updated. 

As a matter of practice, posts in this community are set to only receive comments for 30 days - a default setting.  Is 30 days long enough?  60 days?  90?  Does it make sense to have a single blog post thread continue for  over 30 days?  If there is a consensus that blog post duration in this community needs to be modified, please speak up.   

There are several other post threads that could be characterized as critical of Microsoft, and those posts remain...and will continue to.  Of course, obscene language, and/or personal attacks aren't appropriate.  Posts that stray from the thread topic will be either deleted or not published (if waiting for approval).

Happy Friday!
