Even if the comments are approved, failing to adhere to these guidelines will disqualify the commenters from participating in the contest.
- Make sure to add value to the conversation. You can ask questions if you need help or help other commenters by replying to their thread. You can also share your thoughts, provide an additional tip, and more.
