2. Web Site Protocol and Guidelines
As a participant in this online community, you agree to use my web site within the following guidelines and acknowledge that the online community is provided for the purpose of expanding your personal knowledge, success and ability, not to demean, malign or personally attack other individuals or companies:

It is a condition of use and access to this Site that users do not do any of the following:

Post or transmit any unlawful, threatening, abusive, defamatory, pornographic, profane, libelous, invasive of another’s privacy, harmful, vulgar, obscene, harassing, hateful, or racially, ethnically, religiously, sexually improper or otherwise objectionable information or material of any kind. Including, without limitation any information or material that might reasonably encourage conduct that would breach any civil or criminal law.

Post or transmit any information or material of any kind which violates or infringes upon the rights of any other person, including information or material which is confidential, subject to rights of privacy or publicity or which is protected in whole or in part by copyright, trademark or any other intellectual property or similar right with respect thereto, without first obtaining permission from the owner or relevant right holder.

Knowingly post or transmit any information or material which contains a virus or other component designed to harm my hardware, software or other facilities.

Delete any author attributions, legal notices or proprietary designations or labels in any file that is uploaded.

I fully support the use of nicknames on my Community Facilities but users must not join or operate one of my web sites:
Under a false or assumed name
Using a false address, phone or contact details in the Customer Profile

I reserve the right to monitor (including IP addresses) or review the contents of my Community Facilities in order to preserve a transparent open community environment. I reserve the right to remove in whole or in part any information, material or file that has been posted in contravention of the Terms and Conditions, any applicable law or is considered by me to be offensive or irrelevant for any reason. However, I shall not be responsible to ensure that users do not post information, material or file that is offensive, contravenes any applicable law or right or is misleading or deceptive.

Users expressly acknowledge and agree that the Community Facilities provide a means of public and not private communications. I will provide reasonable cooperation with any law enforcement authority in any jurisdiction in respect of any lawful direction or request to disclose the identity or other information in respect of anyone posting any materials, information or files which violate any applicable or relevant law.

3. Decorum and Conduct
My sole desire is to create an inclusive environment of mutual trust and understanding where individuals can feel empowered and free to contribute. I therefore ask that users or members participate fully in my online community while exercising tolerance, respect, professionalism, maturity, understanding and an openness to accept the views and opinions of others though they may differ from your own.

Healthy debate is fully supported on this site however members are reminded that discussions need to revolve around real issues not individuals and should remain free from demeaning personal attacks which devalue the forum experience for everyone. Should controversial or negative opinions be expressed, I ask that:

You use restraint and consider the fairness and balance of the post.

Comments cannot be hearsay, they must be from first hand experience.

The member making the comments must list their full real name in the signature of the post.

The communication must add value to the discussion and not be purely malicious or mischievous.

Treat others as you yourself want to be treated and you will have a great time and learn heaps.

I am committed to protecting the spirit of robust open online interactive communication and I desire it to be known that I will not be attempting to censor any messages or opinions unless absolutely necessary and in which case web site protocols or terms and conditions are likely to have been broken.

In the event a thread becomes heated and / or contravenes my web site protocols, guidelines, terms or conditions, I reserve the right at my sole discretion, to either, edit, remove, or lock any communication that I consider to be destructive.
