The basic ground rules for discussions on the VPCUK Forum are simple: be polite, use common sense, don't break the law and don't post any message that even hints at advertising.

We don't intend to censor messages based on the opinions expressed within posts, but we will enforce the policies outlined both here and on the Forum. We reserve the right to remove, modify or move posts at our discretion and without explanation. If you have any questions, please e-mail the moderators.

Members are permitted a maximum of one account per person. If you choose to ignore this important restriction, all your accounts will be disabled.

We enforce a very strict policy regarding solicitation of our members by Forum participants except in those Forum sections where advertising is expressly permitted.

Participants may not use the Forum to publish or discuss any information regarding their product or services, or future (possible) products or services, or any product or services they are, or have been, associated with. This includes, but not limited to suggesting your own services, or services of partners, clients, employers or friends. The Classified Forum is the only place for advertising.

Participants may not use the Forum to direct others to any pages which they have commercial interests in; these include commission or referral hyperlinks.

Participants may not create duplicate threads (cross-posting) or direct others to threads they have started. It just wastes everyone's time.

Participants may not use the Forum to solicit users for any project or purpose external to the Forum; public, private, or commercial. Most importantly our member base is not a resource to be "mined" by individuals, groups, or businesses, for profit or not for profit. Further; If you SPAM our members in any manner, your account will be disabled.

We take the "be polite" rule very seriously! We do not tolerate any rudeness. Any member who is intentionally unpleasant or disruptive will receive one warning (at our discretion). And if the member offends again the member will be banned without warning.

In light of our policy of encouraging candid, open exchanges of views and the rapid distribution of information originating from many sources, vpcuk.org cannot determine the accuracy of information that may be uploaded to the Forum. Opinions, advice and all other information expressed by participants in discussions are those of the author. You rely on such information at your own risk. Participants are urged to seek professional advice for specific, individual situations and not rely solely on advice or opinions given in the discussions.

Privacy Policy: We will not release any member information unless under court order to do so.

Finally, any abuse towards our staff and/or management in any form will result in immediate suspension of your account.
