NETIQUETTE

We'd like the discussion boards to be a safe place for people to exchange ideas and talk about subjects close to their hearts. For this reason we may occasionally remove postings, either because they are offensive or abusive, or because they are libelous and could put us in legal jeopardy. If messages are off topic they may be removed or placed in a more suitable area. We also reserve the right to ban visitors who use offensive language or act in an antisocial or unacceptable way.

  1. Please be aware that posting on a board is not always the same as talking and something that might be said in a lighthearted manner could easily be misunderstood or taken the wrong way and cause offence.
  2. Writing in CAPITALS is known as shouting, and some people find this offensive (it is also harder to read).
  3. We will not tolerate racism, sexism or homophobia in any posting.

If you read something that you find offensive, please inform the administrator, giving the location of the message.
