Commenting Policy

Commenting Policy
MLBTR is increasing efforts to enforce our Commenting policy. *The goal is to raise the level of discourse in the comments, part of which involves eliminating inappropriate language and insults.

Comments of this nature are **t allowed:

• Attacks or insults towards other commenters, the post author, journalists, teams, players, or agents.
• Inappropriate language, including swearing and related censor bypass attempts, lewdness, insults, and crude terms for body parts, bodily functions, and physical acts. *Overall, we don’t want any language that a parent would **t want their kid to see.
• Juvenile comments or extensive use of text message-type spelling.
• Comments written mostly or entirely in capital letters.
• Spam-type links or self-promotion. *Please submit to our weekly*Baseball Blogs Weigh In*feature if you have a website or blog. *Currently, permissible links in the comments are limited to MLB.com, Cot’s Baseball Contracts, FanGraphs, Baseball-Reference, Baseball Prospectus, Baseball America, and MLB Trade Rumors. *Comments linking to other sites will be deleted.
• Comments about how you're sick of this topic or it's **t newsworthy.
• Anything else we deem bad for business may be *******.

Also keep in mind the following general guidelines:

• ** inappropriate avatars or images are allowed.
• Comments should be kept to approximately 200 words or less.
• Corrections for errors made in our posts are welcome and appreciated. *We ask that you be cordial in doing so.

If you see comments that violate our policy, please flag them and/or*contact us. *Bans may be handed out liberally by our moderators, without second chances or warnings. *Remaining civil is **t that difficult, though, and most commenters have ** problems doing so as well as helping rein each other in. *We at MLBTR are grateful for long-time commenters and readers, though this Policy applies equally regardless of tenure. *This Policy is always available at the bottom of the site, and will be re-posted monthly.
