8. COMMENTING GUIDELINES
8.1. Have something to say about one of our sweet stories? We want to hear it! Our comments
can be used to share your own experiences, thoughts or helpful info - you just have
to follow a few simple rules:
8.2. How to Keep It Sweet:
- Stick to the point. If you are posting a comment on a story, your
fellow readers will find it most helpful if you are commenting on that story!
- Plagiarism is so highschool. Do not copy material from other sources,
except in brief quotes, with the source acknowledged.
- There's no need for claws. Vigorously debate the ideas, but avoid
personal attacks. Do not make comments that are threatening, defamatory (for example:
alleging criminal activity by an individual), obscene, profane, contain hate speech,
or degrade others.
- We'll make sure we heard you the first time - so please do not
repeat a comment that you have already posted.

your real name as your Screen Name, but we advise against using personal information
