Forum Rules And Guidelines

S.O.C is proud to be a "hands off" forum in

moderating terms, thinking that members are mostly adults and can self moderate
their own posts. But where this self moderating is lacking in opinion of the
moderating team, steps will be taken.

Trolling/Flaming/Bashing/Baiting

We respect the right of everyone to express their opinions

without fear of being attacked or personally insulted. Feel free to debate
strongly and offer firm opinions. Any form of direct or indirect personal
attack or harassment of any member or their car is unacceptable behaviour and
is not tolerated. If you find something extreme or offensive posted on the
boards, do not respond to it, privately or publicly, Keep in mind that even
though you are sitting behind your computer, you are still having a conversation
with a human being. PM a moderator they will be happy to review the messages and,
if inappropriate, will edit or delete it, and take further action if needed.

We do not want to see: Racism, hatred, violent language,

threats, real-life threats, insults, extreme vulgar language, flaming,
otherwise inappropriate or hurtful language, harassment, grammar policing.

Cross-Posting

If you have something to post and you're not sure which

board it belongs in, do not post it in more than one board. If the
administrators or moderators think it would fit better in another location, it
will be moved there. Duplicate threads only serve to create confusion.

What happens if I see a
thread/post which has broken a rule?

The moderating team are here to help.

If you find there are members that are breaking the rules or come across a post
you believe has broken the rules, please report it via a PM or using the
"Report this post" button at the bottom of every post, and let the
forum staff take care of the problem. For newbies, a friendly reminder or link
to the Rules Forum or a simple explanation is considered a Good Samaritan
Gesture. If anyone in a thread points out politely that you may be violating a
rule, do not reply in turn with attitude.

Please Do Not Post in All Upper Case

Posting in upper case often denotes “SHOUTING” and is

generally seen as not polite.

FOR SALE & WANTED DIRECTIVES / RULES

All members and forum users are under obligation not to

place a For Sale/Wanted post anywhere else on the forum for their benefit,
other than in the For Sale/Wanted section.

Ebay link/s are permitted to be included with a item

description. Please ensure pictures are visible either within your post or the
Ebay link/s.

Family and friends cars for sale are permitted to be

placed by members, and it is your responsibility to ensure that all pictures
and descriptions are accurate and that you have their permission.

The S.O.C Team has given you the provision to sell and buy.

S.O.C does not accept any responsibility for the arrangements, transactions and
disagreements between the seller and buyer or otherwise.

These guidelines are pretty simple, therefore those posts

that do not comply with the guidelines will be edited or deleted.

Oh, and "I never bothered to read the guidelines" is not a valid excuse!

Thank you from all the S.O.C Team.
