Our Company will treat any personal information that you submit through this site in accordance with its Privacy Policy as set forth on this site. By displaying or publishing ("posting") any content on or through the ManchesterVacs.co.uk forum,

5. USER CONDUCT

5(a) Personal attacks are prohibited: This specifically means any text/post that is blatantly attacking another member or their partner. It is easy enough to use civil language in order to respectfully debate differing points of view. If you are not sure what you are about to say is civil, rephrase it or don't post it. Keep your comments limited to the debate at hand and do not make it a personal issue between you and another member. Please conduct yourself with restraint and treat others who use this forum with respect.
5(b) Be considerate: There is tremendous diversity in age, race, gender, native language and location on this forum and there will be a lot of varying opinions on different subjects. We're all drawn to this site because we have a common interest. Remember, the English language differs across the world; the FSU, the US, Canada, Australia and the UK can have differences. If you are unsure of what another poster means by what they have written, ask them for clarification or more information. Understand that what you write, and what people subsequently understand, can differ.
5(c) Find the forum which best fits your topic: By placing your topic in the most appropriate forum you are showing your respect for the community and you will receive helpful responses.
5(d)Stay on topic: These can be very busy forums, so please pay attention to the subject matter of your posts, and check that it still relates to the topic and forum to which you are posting.
5(e) Identify your subject matter: Not everyone has time to read every forum post. To ensure that your message reaches the right people quickly, identify your subject matter clearly in the subject line. Subjects like "question" and "major problem" will not get you the response you seek.
5(f) Report inappropriate posts: We are proud of being a fun, friendly, and supportive forum. Tell the moderators using the "report post" links provided if you see any content that breaks our guidelines. Do not feed trolls.
5(g) Welcome newcomers: Do not chastise them for not reading the forum etiquette or asking what you consider to be stupid questions. Make them feel welcome in our community. When newcomers arrive, welcome them to our growing community. Many of our community's senior members are a wealth of knowledge and have much to share. Help new members learn about how to find information and resources, save time, and how to get involved in our community.
