    Yeah, good call - I think it should be self-evident that links to the online hate machine are not allowed here. We all know the usual suspects, and they’re generally not hard to spot.

      Yep. Sounds like a good policy.

      And good to distinguish between someone just not liking something and someone who’s just determined to hate something regardless of the content. Easy to overshoot and just start weeding out all “negativity,” which can stifle healthy conversation almost as much as dealing with the hate-posters can. I don’t envy the responsibility you mods have trying to strike a good balance on that.

        Yeah, like I said, the professional haters are pretty easy to spot.

        As far as removing negativity…well, our rules are pretty clear on that. Be respectful, explain yourself, and be truthful, and there’s not going to be a problem.
