What are the House Rules?

We've established the following House Rules.

1. Opinions expressed in comments are owned by the poster, if required we will cooperate with law enforcement to see justice done. All posts have their IP addresses and associated details recorded.

Names may be failed if they...

• Contain website or email addresses
• Contain contact information (i.e. phone numbers, postcodes etc)
• Appear to impersonate someone else
• Contain swear words or are otherwise objectionable
  
  

We reserve the right to fail comments which...

• Are considered likely to disrupt, provoke, attack or offend others
• Are racist, sexist, homophobic, sexually explicit, abusive or otherwise objectionable
• Contain swear words or other language likely to offend
• Break the law or condone or encourage unlawful activity. This includes breach of copyright, defamation and contempt of court.

• Are seen to impersonate someone else
• Include contact details such as phone numbers, postal or email addresses
