Here are some of the Guidelines that moderators have to follow. This is so you know that the mods also have rules they have to follow and don't just do things on impulse or because they are on a 'power trip'
It is for reference only and Some parts of the guidelines have been removed which outline HOW moderators do their moderating (ie the process).
Here it is.......
This thread is to be as a summary of the terms and conditions, and a guideline for moderators.
In summary the following needs to be taken into account:
A. No racist, sexist or any 'ist' comments will be accepted.
B. Don't let people make personal insults at each other.
C. No threats.
D. Try and keep topics on track (esp. if its in the technical section).
E. No posting of links/URLs to illegal websites/files (including torrent files/sits and mp3 sites/files).
In addition to that please be aware of the following:
1. Make sure that posts which are made under the wrong forum heading are moved to their correct location.
2. If you come across a thread which you think shouldn't be posted, but are not sure, then move it to the Moderators Corner (DO NOT leave a redirect of the thread) so we can discuss it. Once we give it the tick of approval, then we can move it back.
3. If/when you edit a user's post, make sure you state your username so we know who has edited that post, and put your text in either bold or italics (pref italics).
4. OzHonda Terms and Conditions
5. Initial registration terms and conditions here (need to be logged out to see this).
6. Terms and conditions for the For Sale forum here.
7. Terms and conditions for The Lounge here (Remember no advertising or spamming in the lounge).
8. Under no circumstances is a member's account to be deleted. Even if he/she requests it. The account maybe disabled, however NEVER deleted as we require records of IP, posting time etc.
The idea is to have a respectable and friendly environment (I can't stress how important this is).
