Commenting guidelines

On Rocketsare.cool it is possible to respond to articles. To prevent spam and nonsense you can only respond with an account. I think it is very important that this is done in a good atmosphere, where the comments are substantiated and readers respect each other. That is why I have established a number of house rules.

House rules

Clear guidelines

• English is the language of instruction
• Proper use of capitalization, punctuation and paragraphs is greatly appreciated
• Respond substantively and do not make a discussion personal
• Support your reaction/opinion with relevant arguments. Empty slogans or one-liners without substantiation can be removed.
• Do you see reactions that are not acceptable? Let me know.
• Illegal, misleading, unethical, commercial, discriminatory, defamatory, pornographic or violent material or information will be removed immediately
• Defamation, impersonation, attacks, insults, abuse, threats or other violations of the legal rights of others will not be accepted
• Do not post links to other sites
• Preferably use your own first name
• In the case of inadmissible usernames, a short-term ban will be handed out to change the name during that time.
• The comments section is not the place to discuss editorial choices.
• Unnecessary use of the CAPSLOCK function will be removed.
• Comments pertaining to a changed text can be removed

Offence

What happens

If a comment violates the house rules, it will not be approved (pre-moderation) or removed (post-moderation). Repeated abuse will result in a user being blocked. In far-reaching cases I can proceed to an IP ban. I reserve the right at all times to remove comments, even if they appear to comply with the house rules, but are deemed unsuitable for another substantive reason.

If you have any questions, please get in touch.
