Main Rules

General Rules of Conduct on the Website:

First of all, this website is visited by hundreds of people of different religions and viewpoints, and all of them are full-fledged members of our community. If we want this community to function properly, we need to have rules in place. We strongly recommend that you read these rules—it will only take a few minutes, but it will save both you and us a lot of time and help make the site more interesting and better organized.

You must treat all site visitors with respect. There is no need for insults toward other members—that is always unnecessary. If you have any complaints, please contact the Administrators or Moderators (using private messages). Insulting other visitors is considered one of the most serious violations and is strictly punished by the administration. Racism, as well as religious or political statements, are strictly prohibited. We thank you in advance for your understanding and for helping to make our site more polite and friendly.

Strictly prohibited on this site:

• Messages not related to the article’s content or the context of the discussion
• Insults and threats directed at site visitors
• Comments containing offensive language, degrading human dignity, or inciting interethnic hatred
• Spam, as well as advertising of any goods and services, other resources, media, or events not related to the context of the discussion

Let us respect each other and this site, where you and other readers come to communicate and express your thoughts. The site administration reserves the right to delete comments or parts of comments if they do not comply with these requirements.

If you violate the rules, you may receive a warning. In some cases, you may be banned without prior warning. For questions about lifting a ban, please contact the administrator.

Insulting administrators or moderators is also punishable by a ban—please respect others’ work.
