Hence, we reserve the right to delete comments and ban users as required, to keep the comment boards here civil and meaningful.
Here are a few Do's and Don'ts :
Here's a little list of what to do (Do's) and what not to do (Don'ts) on our comment boards. It's not an exhaustive list, but you get the drift, right?
Do's
- Been to a place featured in the article? Share your experiences, tips, or any other relevant information or feedback.
- Give us useful and constructive criticism. Spot a typo, or an error? Let us know and we will correct it.
- Share your travel wisdom, ideas, tips, perspectives or anything else relevant.
- Appreciate an article or a post? Let us know!
Don'ts
- Feeding the trolls. If you don't agree with something, or find something offensive, don't engage in a battle of words. Just Flag such comments.
- Promoting your own brand, product, or blog. The comments area is not for promotions. If you are interested in advertising on this site, then contact us.
- Impersonating authors or other commenters. Only weird people do that. Don't be one of them!
- Making ill informed and misleading comments. These don't help anyone.
- Comments that are irrelevant and off-topic. Hey, this isn't a chat-room! Stay on topic of the article you're commenting on. Too many off-topic comments won't help readers looking for something useful.
- Threats and abuses against the author or other commenters. Definitely not allowed.
- Trolling. Travelling and trolling don't go hand in hand. Don't be a troll.
