Comment Policy


First things first:
We love comments and appreciate the time that our readers spend to share ideas and give feedback. Thank you to everyone who comment at Scottish Daily.

However, we also want our comments to be as useful as possible to all of our readers. While we keep 99% of comments, there are some instances where comments will be edited or deleted as follows:

1. Harassing comments:

  • While conversation and the sharing of different ideas is encouraged, all comments need to be respectful towards our contributors and those leaving comments.
  • In the interest of fair play, no personal attacks are permitted in this blog’s comments. You may question or argue the content, but not attack the blogger, nor any other commenters. Failure to respect fellow participants on this blog could result in removal and blocked access.

2. Anonymous comments:

We only accept comments from people who identify themselves.

  • The comment form must be filled in with a proper or legitimate sounding name and URL. Comments using keywords, spam or splog-like URLs, or suspicious information in the comment form will be deleted. Your comment will not be edited, it will simply be deleted in its entirety.

If a comment is solely promotional in nature, we will remove it from the site.
