Forum Guidelines

[Beaussie]

Your posts may be deleted, without warning or notification at moderator discretion, for breach of any of the rules below.

If you have any questions or concerns about post/thread removal, please feel free to PM a moderator or email us at feedback@talkingfooty.com

Do not post your queries on the main boards. Such posts WILL be removed, without further explanation.

Constant breaches of the rules will result in your access to Talking Footy being reduced as the Admin/Moderator group see fit.

1) Excessive swearing, mature content, drug references, poor taste. This is essentially a site that is accessible by football supporters of all ages. We will let some minor cases through, but we have to draw the line somewhere.

Anything deemed to be of poor taste or of an offensive nature may be removed at moderator discretion. Please consider all members when posting, as what you think is funny, not all members will feel the same way.

2) If you don''t like a post, please don''t flame back - it makes the job of moderation much harder. Just report the post to a moderator and let us handle it.

3) Trolling - Deliberately posting on club forums or threads in an attempt to stir/bait other users will not be tolerated.

4) Please ensure you post threads in the appropriate forum, or they will be moved. While threads will sometimes move away from the original topic, please do not deliberately drag a thread away from its original subject.

5) Legal issues - This is the tricky one. Basically we will be inclined to keep a very close eye on threads/posts discussing rumours or anything that could be potentially libellous.

We are not interested whether there is only a minimal chance of legal action. If there is any potential threat to Talking Footy, we will come down hard on it.

6) Please do not use signatures/avatars as an opportunity to make subtle jibes at other forum members. If in doubt as to whether something is acceptable or not, don't use it! You may not refer to another forum member, or quote anything they have said, without permission from that member.

7) Spamming - Advertising for personal commercial purposes is NOT permitted. Placing links to sites that other users may find of interest/personal websites is acceptable within reason (ie: constantly posting links will be frowned upon).

8) The moderators reserve the right to delete or move threads/posts as well as remove signatures/avatars as necessary according to the rules of this forum.

9) Any decisions made around the intepretation of the rules above are entirely at the discretion of the site admins, and are final.
