Hi there,
Here at Carscoops, we encourage readers to share their opinions and engage in healthy, productive discussions. Well-reasoned disagreements and constructive criticism are always welcome, but negativity for negativity’s sake, personal attacks, trolling, profanity, and anything designed to stir up conflict are not.
To maintain a welcoming environment, we will remove comments that violate these standards. Repeated violations may result in a ban. While we don’t want to take such measures, it’s necessary to ensure an enjoyable space for everyone.
Why is my comment held for moderation?
While most on-topic and non-abusive comments from registered users are published immediately, some comments may be held for moderation by Disqus. This includes posts from ‘guest’ accounts, comments with hyperlinks or images, those containing foul language, comments that have been repeatedly edited, or posts flagged by other users as toxic.
What about Spam?
Comments may occasionally be flagged as spam for various reasons, including but not limited to: using a signature across multiple comments (e.g., adding a name or website link repeatedly), unusual or incorrect syntax, posting identical comments multiple times on the same page or across sites, or including excessive links, numbers, or special characters.
When will my comment be published?
Most comments will be reviewed by our human moderators. However, due to the limited capacity of our team, please note that there may be delays in the review process, especially during nights, weekends, and holidays.
We ask for your patience and kindly request that you refrain from posting screenshots of comments in the moderation queue. Any such screenshots will be deleted, and repeated offenders may face a ban.
A few simple guidelines to remember:
- 1. Stay on topic. Do not spam with repeated, unrelated comments
- 2. No name calling, insults and personal attacks to other commentators and article authors
- 3. Keep it civilized. Don’t use offensive language or profanity
- 4. Do not harass other posters and be respectful toward other contributors
- 5. Don’t feed the trolls!
- 6. Our comment moderation capacity is limited, so please be patient!
We reserve the right to delete any comments submitted to the site without notice. This comment policy is subject to change at any time.
