Garyside wants to be a reflection of the passionate, diverse voices of the residents of Gary, as well as the Indiana Region, but we also want it to remain a place of civility and respect for other people.

Guidelines for comments are simple: Be relevant, be courteous and argue with issues not people. That being said, the goal of our comments policy is to help ensure it is a vibrant, yet civil space. Garyside took great inspiration from the folks at Boing Boing. As a result, Garyside has adopted their policies verbatim with the permission of Boing Boing of course.
