Terms & Conditions - Sticky - Please Read

[Brian.Dixon]

Terms & Conditions:

• Usage of these forums / boards convey your acceptance of our terms and conditions.
• Profanity or vulgarity or other non-publicly acceptable content is not allowed.  What falls into this category is a subjective judgment made by our moderators.
• Personal attacks on other members are not allowed.
• Political and other off-topic discussions or postings are entirely encouraged, but please keep them in the Bilge Board
• You are included in the newsletter distribution list unless you opt out (please contact us).  Note: We've never sent out a single newsletter in the last 15 years.
• Your privacy is important to us - we will not share or distribute or otherwise provide your private information to anybody for any reason.  The exception is the public information included in your posts (only)
• We do not provide contact information for other users of these forums.  If you need to contact someone via email or otherwise, we will be happy to relay your message if we are able (contact us) - otherwise, please make use of the forum private messaging capabilities for this.
• The content, including attachments, in your posts are considered public domain.  Others that view this forum are likely to re-post text, images, links, and attachments from the posts that you make to other forums, websites, or social media sites.  If this is not OK with you, please refrain from posting - the public nature of forum posts negates our ability to control what others do with the forum content.  If you want to post, but do not want others to re-post your content, please make a note of it within your post, e.g. "This post and all attachments are copyright UserName - 2018 to present.  Permission to re-post this content on other sites is not granted."  Hopefully, people will obey that honor system decision on your part and will refrain from re-posting.  If someone violates your request, let us know and we'll ban them from our forums.
• SPAM is not allowed.  What is and is not spam is a subjective judgment that will be made on the part of our moderators.  We encourage listings and links posted for legitimate (hopefully boat related) member businesses.
• Violation of these terms and conditions are grounds for immediate and permanent banning from these forums
• These terms and conditions are subject to change.  It is up to you to periodically check them.

Thank you!  Feedback welcome!
