House Rules

Evan Kamanja

Help us keep a fun and respectful atmosphere for everyone, with a focus on sharing suggestions and ideas. These House Rules are not exhaustive, so please use common sense, mature decision-making, and follow the intent of these House Rules:

Respect other members.

Keep your remarks constructive and respectful. Don’t be offensive, abusive, humiliating or intimidating and don’t use profanity, attack, harass, or impersonate others. It’s just not cool.

Keep your comments on-topic.

Comments and description text for a specific idea are intended for that submission only:

• Do not post links or request visits/feedback to your own submissions, or otherwise try to make the conversation about your submission, on someone else’s submission. Please also don't 'advertise' submissions belonging to others in the comments. Remember that the comments section of other submissions is not about you and your submissions.
• Off-topic remarks (made in ALL CAPS, txtspeak, chatspeak, and the like) will be removed.
• All content not related to Absa Life products or processes will be removed.
• A submissions’ comments area isn’t a chat room or forum.

We will remove comments or submission that intend to advertise, campaign, or promote a political/religious/social viewpoint as well as content intended to put down a political/religious/social belief held by another person or group of people.

Keep your comments clean.

The Absa Life Site is meant to be a good, clean environment. Don’t create product ideas, contest entries, make comments or submit any other content containing that is not related to the idea/suggestion.
