BABDC Site guidelines: Commenting guidelines

We'd like to clarify our guidelines on comments for this site in order to keep the discussion entertaining but not abusive. Here are policies recommended by Ninjaboi and other readers. Feel free to add others in the comments!
************************************
--No spoiling - Any hinting of spoiling (with regard to eliminations), even if its false will be deleted.  If you know a crew's fate, keep it to yourself.
-- No racism/sexism/ageism or related nonsense
--No ad hominem attacks about other commenters/dancers. Example of what we don't want here: "you're probably some stupid little 13 year old pervert who's never danced in his life"
--No spamming (in any language) - This includes using multiple personalities/usernames that potentially can be used to deceive others.
--Keep it Relevant, e.g, in a post about sending love to Request, do not post a complaint about another crew
--Proper grammar desired, though not necessarily expected.  Still, it helps make you more credible
--A grain of salt with what you read.  It's the internet people, not everyone is serious all the time.  Sarcasm does exist.  If you're not having fun on this site, you're doing it wrong.  And be ready to face people who disagree with you.
--Profanity used as insult will not be tolerated (the f*ckers), but profanity for emphasis (f*cking awesome) will be depending on the level of usage
--Show general respect for individuals.  You can disagree with what someone says or dislike a crew's choreo, but that gives you no right to insult someone or a group of people in general. 

--CAPSLOCK IS NOT CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL!!!
