disclaimer?!?

I actually copied this from 240sxone.com
I strongly recomend we post something simmilar as part of the user agreement on the board.

DRE

ive added this with a couple small changes to a new section for newbies

we should also find a suitable legal disclaimer for this section

hmmm, yes i agree that is wise, but i myself an guilty of some of that gear every now and again.

for example,

i sometimes misspelled $hit to avoid censor

and SOMETIMES I SPELL IN CAPS to make soemthign stand out.

and i post under the kouki_monster just so i can be a dick to people without them knowing it’s me.

i dont want to be a hypocrit, so maybe being lenient in those areas… first 2, not the last one.

Hmm a personal attack isnt it? Doubt you will get banned though.

And being the next Club4AG would be great.

http://forums.offtopic.com/images/smilies/wtf.gif I dont get it, am i supposed to be insulted?

whats wrong with a forum like club 4ag… personally i would prefer this place to be more like freshalloy…

i dont think there is a problem with the sensored words, and i dont see why people need to use them… fuck and shit are pretty much the only censored words, i think there are plenty of words in the english language you can use to express yourself

we dont want potential sponsors comming on our boards and having them look like a zoo, thats why we are trying to clean up.

fair enough

There should still be certain rules regarding posting in the members section … we still want to look good for new members.
