for the avoidance of any doubt.

ANY thread that touches on people/fellow users spending money with you other than as part of a private sale of a car or car parts - MUST be flagged up to me or Ant (Autoad).

ALSO - If you're not a paid up member of the club (loads of threads/links re how to become one) assume that ANY 'group buy'/opportunity/i can make this/refurb these whatever type threads will be deleted if you've not bothered to contact us.

This is a free to use forum - common sense re what is a private sale or not, a money making sideline or not or a MUST be flagged up to us.


If we think you're taking the mick the thread will be deleted without checking/apology.

classic.

it's a free to use forum, enough reminders at sign up stage and elsewhere that no commercial promotions allowed on here.

if organisations have a product or service that could be useful to members or users then they can approach us through the usual routes.

if paid up members have a product or service useful to other people we have an area on the forum for that - not enough people take advantage of that tbh.

if people are breaking cars on anything approaching a commercial basis then those threads will be deleted.

some users or threads get flagged to mods, we 'discuss' in the mods area and make a judgement.

if you think that's being totalitarian then we're guilty as charged.

see you at the shows in the summer hopefully Oli.

Quite simple and easy to understand policies, as Sean states this is a free site therefore why should some use it as a free advertising board and profit from it?
I for one would go as far as charging a small fee for selling cars and parts, therefore boosting the clubs coffers and using the money for promoting the Register around the shows.
