Forum Guidelines - *Please Read Before Posting
Content:
All material posted or linked to, must be G rated. In other words, use only language and post material suitable for the home or office. Do not post foul language, racial epithets or sexually explicit content in any form. At no time will insults or attacks on an individual be tolerated. Racial slurs, epithets or denigrating references to race, color, creed or sexual preference will not be tolerated. Furthermore, they must not contain political statements, controversial messages, slurs or any other provocative statements.
This general content rule applies to posts, signatures, avatars and links within posts.
Also, please use common courtesy and refrain from posting pics/vids etc of others' misfortunes; Rennlist policy is to respect PCA guidelines about posting such details without the owner's permission.
Ads:
Updated rules - 10/2020: https://rennlist.com/forums/for-sale...nlist-181.html
Users are not permitted to make “for sale” or “wanted to buy” posts nor link to ads hosted elsewhere. This is a privilege reserved for paying Members. If a User would like to advertise personal property on Rennlist, please, consider becoming a member by clicking on Premium Membership at the top right of each page.
Paying Members may advertise or link to an ad to buy or sell personal property. In the case of an item or items offered for sale, the price must be included in the post. Ads may appear in as many as three forums maximum, and repeated not more than twice per month.
As a reminder, posting in another member's for sale thread negative and irrelevant comments or a similar item for sale is impolite and not tolerated on Rennlist.
Neither Members nor users may post ads promoting a business, theirs, or one owned/operated by others either in the body of a post or in the signature or avatar fields, nor may they post links or solicitations to visit competitive web sites. Note that posts by Members advertising items "for a friend" will be treated as posts by a User.
Site Sponsors:
In order to promote a commercial entity, you must have a contract with Internet Brands. Only site sponsors may promote their commerce on Rennlist. Site Sponsors will be held to posting according to rules established from time to time by Internet Brands covering the type, size and frequency of ads.
Unlike Member ads, site sponsors are not obliged to post prices in their ads although they are encouraged to do so.
Vendors are cautioned not to disparage other vendors, or the products/services they may offer.
Promoting a Vendor:
Praise and a recommendation of a vendor by users is encouraged as a service to the community. On the other hand, excessive promotion of vendor(s), i.e., cheer leading, will be viewed as advertising. In the same vein, systematic and sustained vendor bashing, i.e., carrying out a vendetta against a particular vendor will result in sanctions.
Copyright Material:
You may not post any copyrighted material that you do not have rights to. Please link to external articles rather than post them in the forums. Posting or soliciting copyrighted material (Carfax reports for example) is prohibited.
Failure to Comply: With the rules may result in posts/threads being edited, or deleted as deemed necessary. Continued violations of the rules outlined above may result in certain restricted permissions, up to and including permanent banishment from Rennlist. The latest version of the Forum Software includes “infractions”. Individuals who disregard these guidelines will be issued an infraction. (Infractions are like demerit points on your driving license. If you get too many you lose you license or, in the case of Rennlist, your ability to post.)
Please note that all Members and Users can use the "report post" button (it's the "!" in the red triangle under the post-count of a member/user). That makes it easier to enforce the rules, as moderators cannot be everywhere and see everything all the time.
