1. Keep it friendly
This is our golden rule... we are all for debate and healthy discussion, but please keep your posts generally positive and definitely refrain from personal attacks, racism, sexism, or any other -isms. Give people the benefit of the doubt.
2. Be aware that you may be misunderstood
Try to be clear about what you are saying, and expect that people may understand your contribution differently than you intended. Remember that text isn't always a great medium for conversation... some things such as tone of voice, sarcasm, humour etc don't always come across when using words on a screen. Again, give people the benefit of the doubt.
3. Please don't paste copyrighted content
If you're not sure, best to err on the side of caution.
4. Please don't spam or write solely for the purpose of self promotion
It's not helpful, it won't get you any new business and will just annoy everyone.
5. Don't use this is a forum for badmouthing venues/suppliers
We want this to be a place for honest discussion, but there isn't any point telling us what a bad experience you've had if you haven't tried to sort it out directly with the supplier. If you've tried and they've still not listened or acted, then by all means please let us know.
6. Understand if your post/thread is removed
We're all for freedom of speech. That said, we'll remove posts we consider to contain personal attacks, to break the law and/or to be obscene, racist, sexist, disablist, ageist or homophobic, once they are brought to our attention, we will also delete any posts that we don't think meet the guidelines above (Please note that any subsequent posts repeating the words in the deleted post may be deleted, too.)
