  • Indecent, sexually explicit or pornographic material of any kind - including masked profanity, where symbols, initials, intentional misspellings or other characters are used to suggest profane language.
  • Threats; personal attacks; abusive, defamatory, derogatory, or inflammatory language; or stalking or harassment of any individual, entity or organization.
  • Discriminatory comments that contain hateful speech of any kind regarding age, gender, race, religion, nationality, sexual orientation or disability.

In the case of identical posts, we will generally leave the first submission and delete the duplicates.
