At Hudtimes, we’re committed to exploring the future of Health, Tech, Science, Trade, and Entertainment — together. We believe that thoughtful conversation builds trust, sparks innovation, and helps us all grow.
Whether you’re commenting on our site, replying on social media, or contributing to a thread, you’re part of our community. These guidelines exist to make sure that space remains respectful, inclusive, and enriching for everyone.
What We Value
Respect Comes First
Disagree without disrespect. Challenge ideas, not people. We welcome a range of perspectives, but not harassment, insults, or personal attacks.
Curiosity Is Key
Hudtimes is driven by curiosity and learning. Ask thoughtful questions, explore new angles, and listen to understand — not just to respond.
Contribute Meaningfully
The best comments add something new. Share facts, insights, experiences, or resources that deepen the conversation. Avoid empty or reactionary responses.
Stay Relevant
Conversations work best when they’re focused. Keep your comments on-topic and related to the article or discussion at hand.
Support Your Points
If you’re making a claim, provide sources. Whether it’s a study, a news report, or a helpful article, adding context strengthens your contribution.
Community Rules
To maintain a high standard of discussion, moderators will remove any content that violates these rules. Repeated or serious offenses may result in a permanent ban.
1. No personal attacks or harassment
Disagreements are fine — personal insults, threats, or hostility are not.
2. No discrimination or hate speech
Any form of racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, or other discrimination will not be tolerated.
3. No trolling or low-effort comments
Comments designed to provoke or derail conversation (e.g., “Who cares?” or “Slow news day”) will be removed.
4. No misinformation
Unverified claims, false health information, conspiracy theories, or misleading content will be taken down.
5. No doxxing or privacy violations
Never share anyone’s private information without their consent.
6. No illegal or explicit material
This includes pirated content, graphic violence, pornography, or anything beyond a professional editorial standard.
7. No spam or self-promotion
Don’t advertise your product, service, or content unless invited by the editorial team.
8. No off-topic complaints about coverage
Comments that simply accuse bias, complain about article choices, or question writer credibility without substance will be removed.
