DO's and DONT's of the SITE.
1. Stay On Topic
*The topic of a site entry is the topic for all comments pertaining to it. Beware
of conversational drift.
*No repeat posts.
*No dual discussion. Dual discussion is conversation about the conversation:
about another person’s commenting style, about the blog rules, about the
moderator’s decisions, etc. Don’t talk about the blog on the blog. Any issues
with the blog community or its moderation should be addressed privately to
the moderator.
2. No to Spam
*No commercial messages. Any spam posts will be removed immediately.
3. Avoid Posting Copyrighted Material
*You may post links to appropriate articles, but posting articles from other
sources in their entirety violates our rules.
4. No to Abuse, Harass, or Defame
*No personal attacks. Insulting, attacking, or denigrating another community
member are ad-hominem attacks, which weaken debate and are not allowed
under any circumstances. No baiting or gloating. Repeated taunting, sexual come-ons, or competitive posts toward another user constitute harassment and will get you banned. The object is intelligent discourse, not scoring points.
*No defamatory speech. Denigration of or threats against any group of people
due to their race, religion, nationality, gender, or sexual orientation will not
be tolerated.
Violations of any of these rules will result in removal of the offending comment(s). Repeat offenders will be banned from the community.
