Starting Tuesday August 3, Tellwut will be enforcing clearer rules regarding comments. Due to the high level of comment complaints, after 3 comment removals, your account will lose commenting privileges for 2 weeks. After that, if we continue to receive complaints on your comments, you will lose commenting privileges for longer periods and eventually will be suspended indefinitely. A comment will only be removed if the Tellwut staff agrees it should be removed, not just because someone reported it and the member will be updated on how many "Strikes" they have. Do you agree with this rule? Yes

Lately we have been receiving complaints on comments that are promoting misinformation. An example would be a comment saying the vaccine has killed over 1 million Americans or that masks have killed people. Do you think these types of comments should be removed? Yes they should
