Comment policy
Our community guidelines exist to encourage the civil discourse we believe is necessary for ideas to be discussed based on their merit.
Guidelines can cover topics like:
- Etiquette - "Be polite and stay on topic”. "Don not flag or downvote comments because you disagree with a user. Instead, state your opinion and back it with facts. We do not want to know you are mad because someone expresses a truth that you would rather not be true. No personal attacks, that reflects a lack of arguments; no strawman pseudo-arguments either, that shows same. Stay objective."
- Expectations - "Your comment will be removed if you don't respect etiquette."
- Privacy - “Don’t post personal information."
- Moderation Settings - "Comments containing links are pre-moderated". "Discussions auto-close after 7 days". (Inform users about your forum's moderation settings)
- Respect.
