Guidelines for the New England Riders Forum
A few suggestions
when participating in our forum... please read.
|
 |
Hang around
... Get a feel for the "spirit" of the place.
|
|
|
Read more
than you post. Read the entire thread before posting.
|
|
|
NER tends towards being a "PG"
rated forum. Please post accordingly. Profanity, vulgarity or
heavily sexual posts are not welcome.
|
|
|
No bashing - of people, bike brands, riding clubs or other forums.
It's always OK to post what you like about someone or
something. It's easy to get carried away and say something in
print that can be misunderstood. Especially when a thread leans
towards the familiar kidding and joking between friends.
Being respectful is always welcomed.
|
|
|
Allow newbies a mistake or two.
Be gracious, we were all new here once.
|
|
|
Read with a positive perspective.
Understanding the spirit of NER, read posts with a positive
slant. If a post rubs you the wrong way, consider that perhaps
you're reading what's not there, or that the poster isn't saying
what they mean clearly. Assume that we're going to agree in the
end, and just cut to the chase ... grin!
|
|
|
Post with a positive perspective.
Negativity invites challenge and confrontation. Assume the more
noble intent of the post to which you are responding before
reacting.
|
|
|
Please only post that
which you would say face to face to someone. This simple
guideline takes much of heat from the fire.
|
|
|
Not every
post
to you requires a response. Sometimes it's best just to let it
be.
|
|
|
|
While everyone is entitled to an opinion there are some topics that
have proven to be contentious in an open forum. Please keep in
mind, NER is a motorcycle forum. Criticisms and ridicule
of other peoples' politics, religion, race, gender, sexual
orientation, age, GoldWing riding and Harley owning are just a few of
these volatile topics. Think before you post. But if you
choose to post don't be offended if a moderator pulls the plug on the
thread before it gets out of hand.
