KidsStagram Blog Community Guidelines

! MIND YOUR BLOGGING MANNERS !

The Ethan Fox Books Official Blog: KidsStagram™ is an exciting new blog site at https://www.KidsStagram.com from E. L. Seer that can be enjoyed alongside the Ethan Fox Books franchise. You can discover behind the scenes information from the author, learn more about your favorite characters, play games, enter contests, and much more. It is FREE to participate and use and is designed to be safe for humans of all ages — please see our Terms & Conditions, Privacy Policy, and Child Safety Guidelines, in addition to these KidsStagram Blog Community Guidelines.

The purpose of the following KidsStagram Blog Community Guidelines is to shape online discussion and debate. It’s not about restricting freedom of speech. It’s about making the blogosphere safer for people who want to express themselves freely without being subjected to cyber-bullying and hate attacks. We believe that our website and blog site are our online homes. And it’s up to us to decide who we want to allow on our turf.

HERE’S WHAT WE EXPECT FROM YOU:

• You may post comments to The Ethan Fox Books Official Blog: KidsStagram.
• Your comments should follow the rules of common human decency. We don’t mind the comments, just the sentiments behind them. We don’t write anything on our blogs that we wouldn’t say to someone in real life. Nor would we tolerate comments that we would not tolerate in actual face-to-face conversations. And that is what blogs are — a conversation.
• However, we do make an exception for critical comments posted with good intention — and reply to these with like intention. Honest criticism is always welcome, because it’s what makes blogs so valuable as a medium for communications.
• It’s the comments posted solely for the purpose of being nasty that we delete. We simply choose not to allow negativity into our lives — and we believe, nor should you.

HERE’S WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM US:

• We take responsibility for our own words and reserve the right to restrict comments on our blog that do not conform to basic civility standards.
• We won’t say anything online that we wouldn’t say in person.
• If tensions escalate, we will connect privately before we respond publicly.
• When we believe someone is unfairly attacking another, we will take action.
• Comments that contain obscenity, libel, and suspected spam content will be deleted.
• We do not allow anonymous comments. We will ban anonymous comments left by visitors to our pages.
• We ignore the trolls. We believe that feeding the trolls only encourages them. As George Bernard Shaw said, “I learned long ago, never to wrestle with a pig. You get dirty, and besides, the pig likes it.”
• When appropriate, we will link to other websites and blogs. We are not responsible for the opinions and content of those sites.
• We will respond to emails and comments quickly.

A word about leaving blog comments . . . we are very concerned with potential violations of the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) overseen by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). Inasmuch, we have created the KidsStagram Blog Community Guidelines — in addition to our Terms and Conditions, Privacy Policy and Child Safety Policy. There will always be bad actors or visitors that didn’t know any better. So, enforcing the KidsStagram Blog Community Guidelines for participation on our Site is helpful for all.

But we don’t stop there, either. Any comments left on the KidsStagram Blog are supervised and our KidsStagram Blog Community Guidelines are enforced — even if it means banning someone from our Site.

If you have any questions about these guidelines or any matter related to our site that these guidelines do not address, please direct them to Ethan Fox Books character Blakelyn Wentworth, our KidsStagram Moderator at [email protected].
