Code of Conduct Proposal

[onyxnz]

Please check out this proposal for a "Code of Conduct" for these forums. Suggestions and alterations of course are welcome.

Code of Conduct

As Bill and Ted reminded us, "Be excellent to each other!"



Be respectful of all members at all times. This means please use etiquette and politeness. Treat people with kindness and gentleness. If you do this the rest of the code of conduct won't need more than a cursory mention.

By registering and participating in ABANTECART Forum discussions you agree to this Code of Conduct. If you are unable to agree you have the right not to participate in forum discussions at any time.

This is your community. Most people have a common sense feel for what is and what is not appropriate in a forum and you folks generally do a great job of policing yourselves. We do, however, need to have a few set policies for everyone to refer to when the need arises.

While the administrators and moderators of this forum will attempt to remove or edit any generally objectionable material as quickly as possible where acceptable, it is impossible to review every message. Therefore you acknowledge that all posts made to these forums express the views and opinions of the author and not the administrators, moderators or web-master (except for posts by these people) and they will not be held liable.

You agree not to post any abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful, threatening, sexually-orientated material or any other material that may violate any applicable laws. Doing any of these may lead to you being temporarily or permanently banned from these forums (and your service provider may also be informed). Your IP address is collected, as is your method of connection, including operating system and browser.

No warranty is expressed nor implied regarding this service. It is open sourced community responding to each other. Please join us to help us make this the best place you can for discussing ABANTECART.

Great post. We can put this as a sticky post in  http://forum.abantecart.com/index.php/board,19.0.html

Small comment. ABANTECART -> AbanteCart.

Agreed, we don't need to shout... 
Also would be a good idea to have it less hidden, eg Putting a link up beside the top right navigation , along with the link to Forum rules http://forum.abantecart.com/index.php/topic,2717.0.html
And maybe an" Accept Code of Conduct" tick box for new registrations? That way nobody can feign ignorance of the way we should be treating one another here.
