1. No profanity. I don’t think this really needs an explanation. Use common sense.
2. Keep it civil. People will always disagree. But we ask that you respectfully disagree. Let me say it again…..respectfully disagree. That means disagree with the content of a post, not attacking the poster.
3. No name calling and personal attacks. It’s the quickest way to have your post deleted. If you can’t make your post without attacking a poster or calling them names, don’t post it. It’s the #1 problem we’ve had on the boards. It alienates people and affects the quality of the board.
4. We work hard to make this as good a high school site as there is on the internet. It’s not OK to abuse anybody out here, including the staff. If you don’t agree with the way we do things, ez inbox us or email us. Businesses don’t take care of customer service issues in the middle of the store. Just give us a shout. We’re always receptive.
5. Do not copy and paste full articles into posts. It’s a violation of copyright laws. Use links whenever possible.
6. No links to web sites or promotions of businesses are permitted in signature lines. Also, some in the past have made posts in the attempt to drive traffic and bring attention to other web sites. Links to legitimate media sources are fine, but attempts to drive traffic and bring attention to other businesses will be deleted.
7. If you see a post that you think is inappropriate, let us know and we'll delete it if we feel it is in fact inappropriate.
8. Posts that can be construed as racist, bigotted, or hateful will be removed as soon as we are alerted to them and the poster is subject to being banned permanently from the forums.
9. Finally, respect the site. Do what you can to make this the place to be, to be heard, to share opinions and both give and gather information. That’s what this place is all about.
