ATTN: All BSP Web Portal Visitors and Comment Writers
Good day.
Thank you for actively using the BSP Web Portal and for using it as a venue and tool to share your thoughts and express your opinions on matters concerning Scouting.
The BSP Web Portal was designed and is intended to be the primary and central access point to the various Web-based resources of the Boy Scouts of the Philippines in particular and the Scouting Movement in general. It is primarily a source of information. IT IS NOT AN ONLINE FORUM.
Inasmuch as we encourage Scouts and everyone interested or concerned with Scouting to use the BSP Web Portal to leave comments and convey messages to each other and to the BSP leadership itself, it must be governed by rules and standards that are meant to encourage positive, objective, and constructive exchanges on one hand, and discourage negative, derogatory, and divisive comments on the other hand.
COMMENT DELETION
As a rule, the following types of comments are discouraged and immediately deleted when found:
- Comments that use/contain foul language;
- Comments that use/contain language and/or materials that promote discrimination, bigotry, violence, and pornography;
- Comments that may damage the reputation of another person, group, or the BSP itself, without the benefit of due process.
- Comments that may disparage other people’s gender, race, beliefs, religion, political affiliation, or social status;
- Comments that endorse products, services, persons, or causes without the expressed approval of the BSP;
- Comments that contain complaints and accusations, unless the comment writer includes his/her full name and contact details (see also below for Proper Venue for complaints and accusations);
- Comments that can be deemed as “forum shopping”;
- Other types of comments that may be perceived as “bad taste” or inappropriate according to generally accepted moral and ethical standards.
We regret to inform you that we have to delete all comments that meets one or more of the above on any of the pages and posts in the BSP Web Portal. As Scouts and responsible citizens we have to follow due process. As Scouts we are likewise expected to value fairness as much as we value justice.
PROPER FORUM
We encourage you to step forward and bring your concerns, complaints, or accusations to the proper channels in the BSP organization. If you are a Scout then you are duty-bound to do something if you believe that a wrong has been committed or if a fellow Scout is not adhering to the Scout Oath and the Scout Law.
We can assure you that the BSP leadership welcomes all types of feedback, including complaints and accusations, from concerned people like you. If, after a thorough fact finding and due process it will be established that the concern you raised is valid and has sufficient basis, corrective or punitive action will be made, as appropriate.
You are also encouraged to fully identify yourself and provide a means for the BSP to contact you for more information, clarification, as well as status updates regarding your concern. A Scout, after all, is brave.
For practical and legal considerations the BSP cannot and will not act on concerns, complaints, and accusations from anonymous sources.
You may use the Contact Us section of the BSP Web Portal or you may write a formal letter addressed to the Office of the Secretary General of the BSP.
Thank you very much for your understanding and kind consideration.
Respectfully yours,
The BSP Web Portal Administration Team
