Title: New rule added

Note: there's been a new rule added to commenting on the website:

"...drive-by comments to show your disinterest in an article or something we cover are just not needed. They're a waste of your time, our time and have in the past caused arguments. If you're a super fan of GOG, Steam or insert thing, we don't need to see your comments on opposing articles telling people to "go use other thing". Fanatical attitudes aren't welcome"

Another useful way of describing such comments: flamebait.

We've had an increase over the last year of really weird attitudes that has led to this. From people going along to a Proton article just to say they won't touch Proton, to people coming to an article about GOG or Steam to comment how they refuse to use them and...you get the idea. It's getting ridiculous now and so we're going to moderate on that a bit more to keep the peace. It's such a waste of energy for us all.

The rules link is available above the posting box to view at any time.
