Standards
Your participation and opinions are welcome here. We don’t have a list of “Rules and Regulations.” Instead, when you are visiting sbc IMPACT!, we would ask that you participate based upon these standards:
- Please exercise grace and humility when making comments. We understand that there will be opportunities for healthy debate from time to time. But please keep your comments focused upon the issues in question. Please do not attack, slander, or malign any individual. If you step outside the bounds of Christian honor and dignity, you will be warned. We sincerely hope that we will never have to suspend any commenting privileges.
- Try to stay on focus in your comments. There will always be times when we may stray off topic and “chase a rabbit” or two. That’s fine. But if a comment thread really gets off-course, one of the contributors will help refocus. Please respect his/her direction.
- Please don’t gossip. It’s not a Christ-like behavior. If you make a claim, back it up with a reliable source.
- Feel free to link your blog or other web site. And while you’re at it, be sure to add sbc IMPACT! to your blogroll.
- Take time to comment on posts that you agree with or posts that encourage you. Don’t wait for something contentious before you jump into the conversation.
- We discourage anonymous commenting. We realize that there may be people who need to comment anonymously for security / job security reasons. If that is the case, just give us a brief explanation why you need to remain anonymous and we will respect your word.
And that’s it! Now, that’s not so bad, is it? Of course, we reserve the right to amend or expand these Standards if it becomes necessary.
Now, join in the conversation, have fun, and be a blessing to the people of this blog community!
