Camp Sonic Discussion Guidelines Updated

I’m not real big on ‘rules’.  For me at least, they never seem to always work, and quite often there are exceptions that can make things real complicated (take the US Tax Code for example).

Alas, some rules are needed, and it’s about that time we set some boundaries for the discussions here at Camp Sonic.  We’ll keep it short and sweet, but at the same time, try to carve out some easy ways to promote valuable discussion here at the Camp.

So, without taking any more of your time:

Comment Deleted / Not Showing?

  • Don’t tell us what post you are. If you’re first, we’ll know.  Promise. Otherwise, if you write “First!111!!!one!” and end up being 12th, you just look like a fool, and end up taking up room with two comments (the second being your recovery comment letting us know that you were not first… which again, we already knew).
  • Be intelligent. No, you don’t need to be a college graduate to post here — heck, even an elementary student can get by… but we do ask that you do your best to sound intelligent when you speak.  We are looking for valuable discussion here, which is difficult to come by when we cant reed wut ur sayin. k?
  • Be respectful.  You don’t need to always agree with others to be respectful, we just ask that you stray away from personal attacks.  Also, respect the fact that we are a blog with viewers from both sexes of all ages.  I won’t lecture you on a potty mouth here, but if you’re going to be crude, please do it elsewhere.
  • Wait!!!?!?! I followed all of those rules, but my comment still isn’t showing!  What’s going on? To help reduce spam on Camp Sonic, we’ve taken measures that prevent some comments from being shown without being approved first by a moderator.  Some things that will trigger a comment being held for moderation include having 2+ links in a comment, or posting a naughty word in a comment.

How to get Insta-Banned

  • Be malicious!
  • Spam!
  • Steal something from us (under which case we’ll file a DMCA complaint if need be)!

It’s real simple folks, and I don’t think we’ll have too much of a problem with any of the rules (we hardly do at this point anyways).  If you’ve got questions, or concerns, let us know.  If you think you’re interested in a moderation position, check out our Jobs page.
