For my website I have implemented the community guidelines outlined below. Since my blog is mainly a professional portfolio, there is not much community involvement, however, comments are allowed (but moderated by myself). The guidelines are in place to ensure comments are respectful and that the content within my website is protected from plagiarism. These guidelines work for my blog as they are in place to keep inappropriate or harmful content off of the blog and to prevent users from stealing/ copying my work without giving credit.
COMMUNITY GUIDELINES:
By commenting on my blogs, you are agreeing to abide by the following community guidelines. I reserve the right to remove comments posted by users if they violate these guidelines.
I am one person. I am a student and an artist trying to elevate my career so please be respectful of the following;
- Keep comments relevant to the post on which you are commenting.
- Do not post anything inappropriate, offensive, or hateful to myself or other users.
- Don’t plagiarize..
- Don’t post any material which may be discriminatory or cause offence on the grounds of an individual’s sex, race, religion or belief, ethnic or national origin, sexual orientation, age, marital status, disability or working status. (Love is love, people are people)
- If you are reposting a post for whatever reason, you must tag/cite this website or the Instagram account (@mmh_portfolio)
Take responsibility for what you post. Would you show it to your mother? If not, then maybe you shouldn’t be posting it. This world already has so much hate, I don’t want any of it here. Just because you can’t see me, doesn’t mean your words don’t have an impact. Think before you post. I want this website to be a place of community, where artists and other users can communicate and grow from one another.
If you see a comment that violates these guidelines please direct message @mmh_portfolio on Instagram and please include the following
- The title of the post the comment is on
- The username of the user who made the comment
- A screenshot or a copy & paste of the comment
