Our comment policy explains the rules of the road for registered commenters.

If you don't see your comment, perhaps...

• you called someone an idiot, a racist, a dope, a moron, etc. Please, no name-calling or profanity (or veiled profanity -- #$%^&*).
• you rambled, failed to stay on topic or exhibited troll-like behavior intended to hijack the discussion at hand.
• YOU SHOUTED YOUR COMMENT IN ALL CAPS. This is hard to read and annoys readers.
• you named a business or identified a business in a way good or bad. Contact the business directly with your customer service concerns or your praise – they’ll likely appreciate your feedback.
• you believe the newspaper's coverage is unfair. It would be better to write Jerry Steinley at jerry.steinley@rapidcityjournal.com or call him at 394-8427. This is a forum for community discussion, not for media criticism. We'd rather address your concerns directly.
• you included an e-mail address or phone number, pretended to be someone you aren't or offered a comment that makes no sense.
• you accused someone of a crime or assigned guilt or punishment to someone suspected of a crime.
• your comment is in really poor taste.
