The popular Abbey Hotel in Donegal Town has announced it is taking action against online trolls on social media.
The hotel, which hosts regular music and lively dancing nights, said that comments on certain videos have gotten out of hand.
The negative comments, they say, sometimes criticise the appearance of performers.
“There’s no reason to comment on anyone’s appearance, whether positively or negatively,” said the Abbey’s social media team in a recent post.
“Recently, we’ve had to delete a number of negative comments on our videos, particularly those featuring our performers.”
“We’d like to kindly ask everyone to think before commenting,” they added.
“Any negative remarks about someone’s appearance will be deleted, and the person responsible will be blocked immediately. Some of you may not mind this, but for those who follow us for hotel updates, jiving videos, videos of bands etc…we’d hate for you to lose access to our content because of a comment.”
The Abbey Hotel concluded by thanking the community for their support and understanding: “Let’s keep this space respectful and uplifting for everyone.”
