Conduct in this blog

Someone asked if I accept criticism of my views in this blog. The answer is "yes", but I expect the following conduct:

a) The person must state his/her real name and connection to this issue

b) The remark must be fair and respectful.

I do not accept criticism from any anonymous person. It is cowardly and unfair. They often denegrate into personal attacks.

I have also blocked attacks against other people or groups. I allow some to go through, especially if they express grievance of people who felt that they have suffered injustice (such as the episode on the credit linked notes).

I observe the following conduct in posting my views:

a) I do not criticise any person or pass judgement on them

b) I use my real name; people know my background

c) I write on issues that I agree with (being positive) and disagree with (giving an alternative view)

d) I show repect to the views of other people

I hope that other commenters in this blog will observe a similar conduct.
