A few weeks back we established a set of rules for commenting to ensure our comments would stay a clean and safe area. We have a lot of younger people visiting our site, so the same day we also put in motion an automatic filter to cut back on bad language. Today we are establishing a new commenting rule: no asking for release dates for Minecraft updates. Our comments recently have been little more than "when is pocket edition 0.8.0 coming out?"
Today we are starting to automatically filter out all comments relating to "when is [xyz] coming out". In addition, there is now a box on the right side of every page (below the main content if you are on mobile) that lists the release date for every future version of every edition of Minecraft we know about. We hope this will replace the need for constantly asking when a new release is coming out. Pertaining to Pocket Edition, every article we write will state the current known release date of Pocket Edition at the bottom.
Talk to you soon,
Corbin Davenport
