At Tecopacabana.com, we are committed to fostering a respectful and engaging community where readers can discuss local news, share their perspectives, and engage in meaningful dialogue. To maintain a civil and constructive space, we have established the following comment moderation policy to guide participation in our comment sections.
1. General Guidelines for Civil Discussion
We encourage open discussions that are respectful, thoughtful, and relevant to the topic at hand. Participants should:
- Engage in civil and respectful dialogue with others, even when opinions differ.
- Focus on constructive discussions rather than personal conflicts.
- Keep comments on-topic and relevant to the story or discussion thread.
2. Prohibited Content
To ensure a welcoming environment, the following types of comments will be removed:
- Name-calling and personal insults directed at individuals or groups.
- Hate speech, discriminatory remarks, or threats based on race, gender, religion, nationality, disability, or any other protected characteristic.
- Harassment, bullying, or intimidation of any kind.
- False or misleading information, including conspiracy theories or intentionally deceptive claims.
- Obscene, profane, or offensive language, including excessive swearing or sexually explicit content.
- Spam, self-promotion, or irrelevant links that do not contribute to the discussion.
- Trolling, baiting, or disruptive behavior intended to provoke arguments rather than encourage dialogue.
- Doxxing—the act of publicly sharing or exposing private or personally identifiable information about an individual without their consent—is strictly prohibited on our platform. This includes, but is not limited to:
- Sharing full names, home addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, or other contact details without explicit consent.
- Posting private documents, such as government-issued IDs, financial records, or medical information.
- Revealing workplace details or employment status with the intent to harass or intimidate.
- Encouraging others to seek out or distribute personal information about an individual.
- Violations of this policy will result in immediate action, including content removal, temporary suspensions, or permanent bans, depending on the severity of the offense. We take doxxing seriously as it poses significant risks to personal safety, privacy, and well-being. If you believe you have been targeted by doxxing, please report the content immediately so that we can take appropriate action.
3. Moderation and Enforcement
- Comments are actively monitored, and those that violate this policy will be removed.
- Repeated violations may result in warnings, temporary suspension, or a permanent ban from commenting.
- Decisions by the moderation team are final, though users may request a review if they believe their comment was unfairly removed.
