Posted: February 22nd, 2014, 5:52 amPurlin Brackets Shed Forum: Rules of Participation
Welcome to the Purlin Brackets Shed Forum!
The Purlin Brackets Shed Forum is a peer-to-peer channel to help people find answers, solve problems, and get the most out of their sheds. This forum is dedicated to shed information. Questions related to shed products are also welcome but are only answered as an opinion and not as strictly fact.
Unless specifically identified by Purlin Brackets Shed Forum management, Purlin Brackets Shed Forum employees and affiliates who participate in the forum do so on a volunteer only basis. Such volunteer participants are not compensated for their work nor is their participation considered in the context of Purlin Brackets Shed Forum performance management.
By participating in the Purlin Brackets Shed Forum Site ("Site") you are agreeing to these Rules of Participation, the Purlin Brackets Shed Forum Terms of Use, the Purlin Brackets Shed Forum Privacy Statement, and any other terms included by Purlin Brackets Shed Forum on the Site. If you don't accept these Rules of Participation, the Purlin Brackets Shed Forum Terms of Use, the Purlin Brackets Shed Forum Privacy Statement, and any of the other terms, you are not allowed to use this Site.
These Rules of Participation supplement the Purlin Brackets Shed Forum Terms of Use, the Purlin Brackets Shed Forum Online Privacy Statement, and any other terms included by Purlin Brackets Shed Forum on the Site. If there is a conflict between the Purlin Brackets Shed Forum Terms of Use and these Rules of Participation, the Purlin Brackets Shed Forum Terms of Use take precedence.
Purlin Brackets Shed Forum may monitor this forum to identify and remove inappropriate use.
These rules are your guide to getting along in the Purlin Brackets Shed Forum. The Purlin Brackets Shed Forum moderators will enforce the Rules of Participation and the Purlin Brackets Shed Forum Terms of Use at their discretion. Purlin Brackets Shed Forum may, at its sole discretion, modify these Rules of Participation from time to time.
If you recognize any violation of these rules, please notify us immediately by using the "report inappropriate content" feature in the Options menu of the message.
Rules
To ensure a safe and productive forum, we ask that you observe these rules:
1. Be respectful. Respect your fellow users by keeping your tone positive and your comments constructive. Good or bad, your experiences are always welcome as long as they are offered in a courteous way. Respect people's time and attention by providing complete information about your question or problem. People like helping those who ask good questions
2. Be relevant. Make sure your contributions are relevant to this forum and to the specific category or board where you post. If you have a new question, start a new thread rather than interrupting a conversation. Solicitations inviting members to join, participate in, or buy something are never relevant.
3. Obey the law and keep your word. Don't post anything that would violate any law, or any contractual agreement that you have made.
4. Protect privacy - yours and others'. Don't share anything about yourself that you would not want to see on a road-side billboard. Don't post contact or other personal information-your own or anyone else's-or any content that you receive in one-to-one communications without the author's consent. For example, don?t post your contact information publically, and do not allow someone you don?t know to remotely take control of your computer.
5. Remember this is user-generated content. You'll find plenty of good advice here, but remember that your situation, configuration, or use may vary from that of the individual sharing a solution. Some advice you find here may even be wrong. Apply the same good judgment here that you would apply to information anywhere on the Internet.
6. Think before you post: You may not use, or allow others to use, your registration membership to post or transmit the following:
a. "Rants", "slams", or legal threats against Purlin Brackets Shed Forum, another company or any person.
b. Political statements or commentary.
c. Off-topic comments not related to a technical or usage issue regarding shed products or shed information.
d. Language that promotes illegal activity or discusses illegal activities with the intent to commit them.
e. Duplicate posts.
f. Hyperlinks that lead to sites that violate any of the forum guidelines.
g. Any message that solicits or promotes the use of an illegal substance.
7. Do no harm. You may not interfere in any way with the operations in the forum or with a fellow user's message box, including, but not limited to, mail or "post" bombing, news bombing, other flooding techniques, deliberate attempts to overload a system, broadcast attacks, or attempts to avoid messaging blocking.
8. Do not artificially inflate forum statistics. There are several statistics in place in the forum that are used to measure performance and overall health of the community. You may not purposely attempt to inflate a particular statistic in order to promote yourself in the community. For example, creating a duplicate account in order to acquire more kudos.
9. Cooperate with site moderators and administrators. You may not evade bans or suspensions or otherwise disregard directions from Purlin Brackets Shed Forum moderators or administrators.
