		<description>We advise everyone to read the &#039;User Guidelines&#039; before commenting on BtL. We do not tolerate slander and obvious lies and false accusations (point 5). Participants should not be repeating comments deleted by the Editors, there was a purpose to deleting them.

We at BtL have no interest in finding out the real identity of &#039;commentors&#039;. People are free to use pseudonyms to comment anonymously or use their real names. However, we do advise people to &lt;em&gt;maintain&lt;/em&gt; the ’same name’ to facilitate a meaningful discussion.

The only reason a participant would use &#039;another name&#039; (or multiple names) to the &#039;normal name&#039; would be to create mischief, say nasty things; or for the purpose of giving the impression that many different people are supporting them or think like them. All of this is unethical and un-Islamic.

If the problem of the &#039;same people&#039;, using &#039;multiple names&#039; continues, to create mischief – we will have no other option but to change the comments policy. Only &#039;registered users&#039; will then be allowed to comment. 

This would further limit discussion, and may deter some visitors from commenting and participating – and we prefer NOT to do this, unless absolutely necessary.</description>
