Site Rules

General rules of conduct on the site:

On our website, you must behave respectfully towards all visitors, regardless of their nationality, religious preferences, or outlook on life. Avoid insults towards other users; this is always unnecessary. If you have any complaints about someone or if you see a violation of the rules, please contact the Site Administration via the feedback form. We thank you in advance for your understanding and for your desire to make our site more polite and user-friendly. 

The following are strictly prohibited on the site:
– messages unrelated to the content of the article or the topic of discussion;
– insults and threats against site visitors;
– comments containing obscene language, degrading human dignity, or inciting interethnic or interreligious hatred;
– spam, as well as advertising of any goods and services, other resources, media, or events unrelated to the topic of discussion.

Let’s respect each other and the site where you and other readers come to communicate and express your thoughts. The site administration reserves the right to delete comments or parts of them if they do not comply with these guidelines.

Violating the rules may result in a warning. In some cases, a temporary or permanent ban (profile block) may be issued without warning. For questions about penalties, please contact the administration via the feedback form. If you are temporarily or permanently banned, you will not be able to read news, comment, or send private messages while logged in to your profile. If you log out of a blocked account, you can still read any site content as an unregistered user.

Insulting administrators or moderators is punishable by a permanent ban – respect the work of others.
