Threads/Posts should
only be made in the appropriate forum.
Please keep threads and posts in the right place. Do not post the same item in
several places just to try to increase the chances of it being noticed – this
simply makes work for the admin team who will then have to move these posts as
appropriate. Repeated violation of this rule will result in a warning being
issued.
Threads/Posts must be civil and tasteful.
Threads/posts considered to be offensive to other members, or considered as bad
taste may be edited/deleted by one of
the forum moderators. While debating and discussion is fine, we will not
tolerate rudeness, insulting posts, personal attacks or purposeless
inflammatory posts. Our decision is final in these matters
Abusive Comments
ClenchCommonAeroClub.co.uk will not tolerate insulting posts, personal attacks
or purposeless inflammatory posts towards any other member of the forum. If a
member does abuse another member then they will be issued a warning, along with
details of why they have been warned. If a member repeats the offence, this
will result in a permanent ban.
If however you feel
that you have been unfairly treated, then contact a member of the Admin team,
who will re-view the situation.
Post Quality
Please refrain from posting meaningless threads, one word (or short) non-sense
posts, or the such. Also text-talk is not permitted on the forum. Multiple or
repeated posting in order to increase your post count is not allowed.
Use an
appropriate, descriptive subject when posting a new topic. Examples of bad
subjects include; "Help me!", "I'm stuck!", "I've got
an error!", etc. Examples of good subjects include; "Initial contact
with an ATC", "My Garmin 295 will not accept a waypoint", etc.
Discussion of illegal
activities such as software and music piracy and other intellectual property
violations are not allowed.
We reserve the right to
remove offensive posts without notice.
Swearing
Although a lot of people are extremely broad-minded and will not be bothered by
the use of any known swear word, there are those amongst us who find swearing
unacceptable. We have a swear filter to automatically censor most common swear
words, but, as it is possible to circumvent this by using similar characters,
we sometimes have to manually censor some words. Obviously, some words are
worse than others, but generally speaking, if a word is in the swear filter, it
is deemed to be unacceptable for use on these forums.
Spam
Advertising, spamming and trolling is not allowed. This includes using the forum
email and Private message system to Spam other members.
Discrimination
Discrimination is not tolerated on this forum. Discrimination can take the form
of the use of specific words or phrases or can be in the form of a general
attitude towards an individual or group of people. For example, making a
statement that all black people are criminals is discrimination on the basis of
race, is illegal and is unacceptable. Discrimination can be on the basis of
race, sex, disability, religion, sexual orientation or political persuasion.
Promotion of other
sites.
Members are not permitted to promote another site on
ClenchCommonAeroClub.co.uk, without the permission of a member of the Admin
team. If a member is found to promote/Spam the site with another site then they
will be warned/banned. All posts will be removed.
Age Range
ClenchCommonAeroClub.co.uk is a family forum, open to all ages; therefore posts
need to be respectful. No images or URL of a pornographic or generally
distasteful nature are welcome and will be removed. Bad language needs to be
kept to a minimum. If a post is found to contain this, then moderators have the
ability to edit/delete the post.

disruption to the forum. Warnings can be issued for the following...
In serious cases, a warning will not be appropriate and the

Complaints

post/thread, then contact a member of the admin team via e-mail or PM.
Complaints made public on the forum will be removed. Failure to do so in the
correct manner may result in you receiving a warning.
ClenchCommonAeroClub.co.uk will do its best to attempt to keep
all messages on this forum respectful and within the forum rules. While the
administrators and moderators of this forum will attempt to remove or edit any
generally objectionable material as quickly as possible, it is impossible to
review every message. Therefore you acknowledge that all posts made to these

moderators or webmaster (except for posts by these people). If you notice a
post which appears to contravene these rules please report it to the admin team
