  • Go off-topic — post comments that do not correspond to the subject of the material/topic

  • Add images unrelated to the topic of the discussion

  • Add one-word or empty comments that contribute nothing to the discussion, including phrases such as “+1,” “First,” “Lol,” or “Old news.”

  • Add links to illegal content

  • Leave advertisements or referral links in comments

  • Abuse punctuation marks, emojis, or other formatting/marking

  • Distort words, especially other users’ nicknames

  • Behave rudely toward someone who is not following the Etiquette. It is better to give them a link to this page

  • Report errors in the comments. Use private messages or the error-reporting function at the bottom right of the site

  • Circumvent a temporary account suspension, as this may lead to a permanent ban

  • Use prohibited or misleading images and symbols as an avatar, such as swastikas, profanity, dust specks/specks/dots, blank images, and similar items

  • Use foreign language as a primary language in comments. Use English as a primary language for comments

All of the above points can be described by the simple abbreviation DBAD: Don’t Be A Dick. If something is not specified in the etiquette rules, that does not mean you are allowed to do it.
