Everyone who interacts on the site will be expected to follow these rules:

Rule #1-Keep it civil. No curse words, derogatory comments about anyone based on gender, race, etc. Imagine your giving a presentation to a class full of middle schoolers.

Rule #2-No solicitation (including press releases). Use the comments section to publish original thoughts and ideas, do not include lengthy quotes from other sites or press releases. If you want to point to another source, include a link in your post.

Rule #3-NO LIBEL. Do not make unsubstantiated claims against anyone. Do not accuse anyone of immoral or illegal behavior.

**Anyone who breaks the three comment rules above will have the comment taken down. An email will be sent to the writerh explaining why the comment was taken down. Repeat offenders will be banned from the site.

Rule #4-One account per person. Do not create multiple accounts to trick everyone into thinking that a bunch of people have the same opinion.

**Anyone who breaks rule #4 will be given a chance to explain before action is taken, but any repeat offenders will be banned.

The four rules are meant to be a straightforward guide to interaction on this site. In enforcing the rules, I promise to be fair, not to delete comments recklessly and to always hear out your side of the story. Second chances will be available depending on each situation, but don’t abuse them and don’t take advantage of the rules.
