The Basic Rule
This is a web content voting and retrieval system specifically for Bible-believing Christians.
It is a way for popular web content for this audience to get to the top
and unwanted content to ultimately be removed. The flow and good visitor experience is protected
and should not be disrupted. We will remove and promote sites as needed to preserve a good
experience for our visitors no matter what that may be. We now carefully screen the content and
try to post only content we believe will be popular with this audience.
Content
In order to provide a good experience at this site, we must decide will be made public. This is a judgement call on our part
but it is done with an intent to make a high quality service. To the best of our ablitity we will allow the free flow of content on the site.
The content
must be consistent with those who believe in Christianity. This means that they must not encourage immorality
or move people away from Christianity as defined by the Bible.
Many sites are not allowed because they discourage Biblical Christian faith. This does not mean that
all content must be about Christianity, but this is not a place to post content that will distract people from
their belief and convictions.
At this time, only website content in English
is allowed. Acceptable international English is required. Spelling or grammar errors may be a
reason for not selecting a submission.
Sometimes, ads displayed on a site are the only reason a site is not chosen. Both the content and the
ads must be acceptable in order to be selected.
Sometimes, links to other sites make a site acceptable. If your site contains links to unaccepable content,
even acceptable content will have to be removed because of the links as they will detract from our audiences enjoyment
of the site.
Advertising and Marketing Sites
We are now accepting Ads and Marketing, however these sites may only be listed in Product and Service categories.
Security Risks
Some sites are removed because, whether the submitter is aware of it or not, they pose a security
risk to either Amen Me! or to our viewers. It is important that you test your site carefully first
before submitting. Check your site in different browsers. If your site produces security warnings,
it will be removed without notice.
Some entire websites produce warnings, Any link that is posted from these domains is removed.
Some popular sites are giving us serious trouble. To test your site, try using Microsoft
Internet Explorer version 8. If it gives a yellow warning bar at the top, that is why your
sites are getting removed. Try putting your content on a different provider's blog system.
Some sites gather information from users. If they appear to be harmful these will be removed.
Privacy Risks
Some sites are removed because, whether the submitter is aware of it or not, they pose a privacy
risk to either Amen Me! or to our viewers.
If Amen Me! detects or suspects any abuse of personal information, all sites by the domain in question
will be removed immediately.
Amen Me! would like to maintain a highly protected environment to the highest degree that we can. Thank you
for helping us do this.
Significant or Repeated Miscategorization
Categories are important to the function of Amen Me! It is important that you categorize your site
accurately before they are accepted. If it is not categorized accurately, it may be removed. You may try again with a
different category. We may categorize a site for you once or twice. If you continue significantly
miscategorize your sites your submissions may be suspended or denied.
Poor or Misleading Descriptions or Titles
In order to maintain the flow of the site, titles and descriptions must be properly spelled and
worded in English. The title and description must represent what the user will find when they click. If you
are posting to a forwarding page or ad page instead of what the title or descriptions says, the site will
automatically be removed.
Repeating
Only one link that has the same title and description will be allowed on the site.
Repeating the same tile and description for multiple links and categories is not allowed.
The title and description are critical to a member's ability to understand what they are clicking on.
Disfunctional Sites
If your link does not work or the site itself has errors and we cannot quickly determine how
to fix it, the link will be deleted so that it doesn't distract from the purpose of the site.
Ties
Sometimes two posts contain the same thing only very slightly different.
It may be the same
basic page but slightly different text is highlighted. If one is chosen for submission, we will remove the other one.
Domains or members who do this repeatedly may be denied as this floods our servers with useless copies and doesn't
help the submitter get any more votes.
Back Button Busters
We may choose to limit content to pages that implement a browser functions that makes it
difficult for a user to hit the "back" button. We will delete sites with
this "feature" at our own will as it may be adding to the frustration of our viewer
experience overall.
