About the Guidelines

We’ve created these guidelines for your reference, so you can enjoy our community areas without inadvertently breaking the law, and knowing how to report a problem to us without having to get your fingertips burnt by internet trolls!

If you post a comment on www.staffy-bull-terrier.niceboard.com it must comply with these guidelines. If you’re unclear about any of them, ask us a question. If you disagree with the guidelines, we’re always open to feedback but please note, if your comment doesn’t comply it will be removed and you might even find your account suspended.

Some communities have temporary additional guidelines specific to that community. If site specific guidelines conflict with any of the general guidelines below; the site guidelines will prevail. You will find details of any additional guidance on the relevant site.

On with the Guidelines

You will need to register to post, this can take a little while, please be patient... if you are only here to read then, of course, there is no need to register.

If you spot a post you think moderators should be alerted to, there is a little alert button in the top right of each message.

Warning
If users persist in breaking the rules after being warned multiple times, mods or admin will have no choice but to ban them for the good of the forum

The following rules are applicable across Staffy-bull-terrier.niceboard.com Communities.


  1. Forum Rules Icon_arrow No defamatory comments. A defamatory comment is one that is capable of damaging the reputation of a person or organisation. If successfully sued you could be held liable for considerable damages and costs.
  2. Forum Rules Icon_arrow Avoid contempt of court which means not posting anything that risks prejudicing on-going or forthcoming court proceedings.
  3. Forum Rules Icon_arrow Do not incite people to commit any crime, including incitement of racial hatred.
  4. Forum Rules Icon_arrow Avoid breaking a court injunction (for example, naming an individual or speculating as to their current whereabouts after a court has issued an injunction against doing so).
  5. Forum Rules Icon_arrow Do not post content which you've copied from someone else and don't own the copyright.
  6. Forum Rules Icon_arrow Do not post messages that are unlawful, harassing, defamatory, abusive, threatening, harmful, obscene, profane, sexually oriented or racially offensive.
  7. Forum Rules Icon_arrow Do not make multiple postings. So that we can publish comments from as many different people as possible, participants should keep their number of contributions per debate to a reasonable level. Multiple posts from one individual, or small number of individuals, discourages many others who might otherwise wish to take part.


Although breaking one of the house rules below is less likely to land you in court, the rules are still important for your own safety, the safety of others and to avoid causing offence. Violation of these rules may result in suspension of your membership.

  4. Forum Rules Icon_arrow Keep your posts relevant. Posts which aren't relevant lower the value of the debate for everyone and may be removed.
