All comments are initially held in a moderation queue.
A comment, or portions of a comment, may be DELETED WITHOUT NOTICE if:
- It’s bad English. Please use correct grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Comments are deleted for this reason more than any other.
- It’s derogatory. Comments against someone’s race, religion, politics, sex, sexual orientation, etc. will not be tolerated.
- It’s a personal attack. Don’t type: “All you JAMmers suck.” Don’t diss other websites, chat rooms, etc.
- It’s excessively profane or sexually explicit.
- It describes or encourages illegal activity.
- It’s off-topic. If it has nothing to do with the post being commented on, it will be deleted. If you have a news tip or a question about the site, please email me.
- It discusses the personal and private lives of the show’s staff.
- It shouts or squees. Shouting is using all caps, like: “JIM AND PAM MUST BE TOGETHER!” Squeeing is “I want to see Jim without a shirt!!!!!! Yes!!!!!”
- It’s a duplicate of a comment that was already made.
- It responds to or encourages other offensive comments.
- It’s a spoiler. You can post spoilers in the spoiler post or any other post that has the orange spoiler tag. Otherwise, it will be deleted.
- It “hijacks” the post. This includes multiple comments on the same post, usually to reiterate a viewpoint that may be off-topic.
- You aren’t who you say you are. You are impersonating someone else, or posting under multiple identities.
- It’s more than 200 words.
- It’s inappropriate in a way not covered by any of the points above. I know this is a judgment call on my part. Use your common sense, folks, and just be polite. Let’s act like Pam’s mom is reading these comments. :)
