	*'''Adding insulting comments to someone's page will result in a [[Bans\|ban]]'''! The policy for such comments is that if they can ''possibly'' be seen in an insulting or derogatory way they cannot be posted (even if they are intended as a joke!), as we cannot confirm that the subject can see the funny side. This includes suggesting someone is "fat" or "gay", which can cause as much offence and upset to someone as a swear word. At the end of the day, this is a factual site, not somewhere to have a gossip.		*'''Adding insulting comments to someone's page will result in a [[Bans\|ban]]'''!
