Guidelines
Guidelines for Blogging/Commenting
DOS
Make sure your comments focus on the substance of arguments as opposed to their writers.
Try and add value to the discussion, and do always stay on topic.
Stay polite and civilised at all times.
Try and check your facts before posting. We won't be fact-checking comments for accuracy, but will delete posts if we happen to find factual errors in them.
DONTS
Avoid insults, rudeness, and personal attacks against writers or fellow commenters. If you can't say what you have to say politely, don't say it at all.
Try not to post two-word comments like "Great article". Try to explain why you like the article. (This is also because increasingly spam contains only short phrases like the ones mentioned above - expanding on your comment reduces the risk of getting caught in a spam filter.)
On the other hand, try and make sure your comments are not overlong. We currently have a character limit of 500 (about 100 words) for comments.
Avoid comments in all caps.
Do not post spam - disguised or otherwise.
Make sure your posts do not contain: libellous or potentially libellous statements; obscene and explicit language; threats; information taken uncredited and without permission from another source or sources; email addresses or telephone numbers or other private and personal information published without consent; URLs pointing to material that is not directly related to the discussion.
Comments found violating these rules will be deleted.
NOTE
Morley RFC reserves the right to edit comments as deemed necessary before they are published, delete them after they are published, or not publish them at all, without consulting the commenter concerned. Our decision will be final in all cases in this regard and in terms of interpretation of the guidelines above.
By submitting comments you agree to abide by the guidelines. Users who violate these guidelines may lose the privilege of posting on Morley RFC or worse still blogs disappearing.
