Club Rules ?

[AndrewR]

I've been a member for a couple of months, been very helpfull.

One of the things I have noticed is there have been a few disagreements on postings/threads with a recent poll about banning a member.
Nothing out of the ordinary, happens in all clubs.

I've had a look around, but have not been able to find a set of 'club rules'.

Some people I know hate them, but they can be pretty important. We all like to have a fair bit of freedom - but there have to be limits and also a process for dealing with people who do the wrong thing.
Its not about power for the 'posting police' :copcar: but to keep us 'on track' with what we are trying to do...

I'm just thinking that it would be good for there to be a set of agreed 'club rules' and a process for dealing with people who do cause problems on the forum.

I have already seen the following: http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/posting.php
(And I have done a search for 'club rules' but didn't find them)...

Comments ?

Honestly we shouldent need a set of rules, its more like plain commen sence:

- Treat others with respect, dont target or attack people on the boards

- Dont post shit (keep bullshit to a minimum), dont repost crap (the search button is there for a reason)

- Dont attack modarators for doing there job, the club needs them and they do a great job

- [for miss exa] Put your location in buy and sell topic

- Generaly just dont be a fuckwit!

Just behave yourself, its a fourm not a prison yard!

I think the "performance forums" model is a good guide.
