Posting policy

Posting policy for Giant Battling Robots and Dread Tomato Addiction -  It's nice to have visitors, but SPAM, not so much. I want to allow as much freedom for comments as I can, but there have to be some sort of limits too. Therefore, some rules:

  1. Any posts or links which require any significant effort or my part to determine if they may or may not be legitimate comments, or otherwise wastes my time, are subject to immediate deletion.
  2. If you want to promote your own blog*, do so by posting a relevant comments, or risk wasting my time (see rule #1). Promote yourself by participating.
  3. No p@rn. No links to p@rn (see rule #1 again). If you have a relevant comment that includes a link to adult content, then it would be polite to indicate your link is NSFW, Adult, etc.
  4. If you post in some language other than English, please give some indication of what language that is, or use an automatic translation service such as Google translate. I will not attempt to translated messages if there is no indication that it might be legitimate (see rule #1).
  5. Be polite. Do not feed trolls. Do not be a troll.
* Good for you! I'd like to help. Now go back and finish reading the rule.

Please note that comments on posts more than 14 days old are subject to moderation, and will not appear immediately.
These rules are subject to my interpretation and may change at any time. If you think you have not been fairly treated, email me your concern and I will consider it.

Great rules. I may need to steal them for my blog too. SPAM is such a pain in the rear!

SPAMming my posting policy? That is just too funny! Now, how do I ban someone?

Excellent rules! What a great idea. I have nothing interesting to say, except for this nice porn and some self promotion. Hola! :P
