They have a little quiz with 8 blocked comments, to see which ones you would allow. Here is one of the ones the Guardian blocked as abusive:
"“The Guardian, once a standard bearer of quality journalism now contains football journalists so in love with Mourinho it makes me sad. This is just the latest in an incredible long campaign for the despicable one to join the club of Matt Busby and Jimmy Murphy. I am astonished that the editor of the paper allows this dross to be published. You are a disgrace to the profession.”"
- petecox 11y agoI tried the quiz and scored about 4/8. I'm probably a little more permissive in letting people express their opinions if it means they dig their own holes. I know nothing of this soccer caper but aside from the last sentence, it seems like a fairly typical rant. But why do they publish Mourinho-loving dross? :) If they genuinely want to clean up their comments section, eliminate the professional trolls. e.g. On any politics story the same faces appear, seemingly plucked from university debating teams. It doesn't matter what ridiculous position is being argued as long as they cheered for their side and smeared the other mob. Most voters have leanings but don't have a "team" per se and simply want good policy.
