USER GUIDELINES

RULES FOR YOUR INTERACTIONS

Batting Border Sports is designed to be a community where sports fans of rival MN-WI teams can gather to have conversations about teams they’re passionate about. These guidelines help to make sure that everyone is welcomed into our community.

Be respectful in all interactions.

We do not allow any of the following:

Personal attacks: The competitive heat between the states of Minnesota and Wisconsin is great. However, there is no place for personal attacks in the rivalry. This includes name-calling, insults, threats, hurtful comments about someone’s appearance, voice, or style, and all other forms of attacks.
Discriminatory or derogatory language: This includes racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or other forms of discrimination.
Illegal activity: Don’t promote, encourage, or make light of any kind of illegal activity, including DUIs, domestic violence, or sexual assault.
NSFW images and comments: Keep it PG-13. This includes language and images that are sexual, violent, or generally offensive in nature.
Excessive profanity: As a general rule, keep profanity to a minimum.
Burner Accounts: We will find you, we will call you out publicly, and you will be removed.
Trolling: There’s a line between some gentle teasing, and trolling. Do not cross it.
The “first post” rule: If you break any of these guidelines with your very first post or interaction, it signals to our community managers you’re just here to be disruptive. Violators may be banned, blocked, or removed.
Spam: We have a zero-tolerance policy on spam, which includes sharing links to illegal game streams or downloads. Spam will be deleted and spammers may be banned, blocked, or removed.

Anyone who doesn’t follow these rules when engaging in our communities will at best be removed from the conversation, and at worst will end up banned from that community. These decisions will be made at the discretion of our community managers.
