At Creative Bloq we know how important online communities are and we’re always looking for ways to encourage positive discussion around design and creativity. That’s why we’re excited to announce that commenting is now available directly on our site.
The goal for our comment section is for it to become the best place for thoughtful discussion of our article topics. We're aiming to develop a space where people with an interest in creativity can enjoy conversations built on a foundation of respect.
Our team is dedicated to providing quality content – please keep that in mind and keep disagreements respectful. Not every comment needs to be a debate – it’s fine to just talk! – but please approach all disagreements in a spirit of openness and tolerance. We want to build a community that you’re proud to recommend to others and we can only do that together.
