Our Voice: A memo to spammers
Issue date: 9/6/07 Section: Opinion
Recently, there have been some issues on our Web site, www.thechanticleeronline.com, regarding certain members being blocked and their posts deleted. We wish to reiterate that this is by no means preventing anyone from free speech. Some users just don't choose to adhere to our terms of service. Just so everyone is clear to as to what is allowed and what is not, we have compiled a little list.
Allowed: different opinions, trashing how bad our articles may be (in your opinion), feedback, - positive or negative - on the content and letters to the editor.
Not Allowed: posts with profanity of any kind, spam, racist, sexist or discriminatory remarks, spam, spam or spam. That includes any hypothetical links to any hypothetical petitions calling for the resignation of any hypothetical university president.
In fact, any posts that The Chanticleer considers to be offensive or inappropriate will be deleted, as will the IP adress of anyone abusing other online users or JSU students, faculty or staff.
Now that you know the guidelines, don't be afraid to get on there and tell us what you think. Believe it or not, we are here for you and we do care.
