Posting Comments

In the past couple of years, there have been some pretty intense discussions in the articles comments section here at Animated Films. I generally consider this a good thing: if you're discussing an article, it means you're reading it, which means you're interested in what I have to say on this site. Everybody wins.
However, there are certain rules about posting here. Posts that contain "spam, sales pitches, libelous, multiple postings, or posts which contain abusive language" are not acceptable. It's basic courtesy: you don't want other people calling you names simply because you disagree with them, accusing various celebrities of living a "bizarre alternative life style" or trying to sell crap we don't need. So why inflict it on other people?
Unlike other sites, we don't banhammer those who step out of line. But we do have another method of maintaining order: we delete your post. Don't bother trying to troll these boards; you won't get any reaction to your hateful rants . . . they simply disappear.
And PM'ing me won't help, trolls. I either:
- Laugh
- Shake my head in disgust
- Mock you mercilessly
- Laugh
- Show it to friends who mock you mercilessly
- Laugh
- Use the accumulated bile on the next pathetic product that I review
- All of the above
So feel free to express your thoughts and feelings in the comments below each article. Like or dislike my take on a particular story/movie/TV show? Let me know, and why.
However, calling me "gay and ingorant" (yep, someone actually called me that!) just because I dissed your favourite cartoon will only get your post deleted, and the wife giggling at your sorry ass.
So, happy posting . . . but keep it clean, okay?
