More from them:


"It is not an easy task to define where "the line" that shouldn't be crossed lies. However we'll do our best to provide an example. Consider the following types of discussions and topics:

1. Engine repair questions and answers
2. Tips on upgrading a Crown Victoria for better performance
3. Relative value of Turbocharging vs. supercharging
4. Technical talk
5. Tools and Supplies

6. Posts about pets, music, beverages, software, where cars aren't the primary subject.
7. Topics which, when opened, contain nothing after the sentence "Ha ha, made you look."
8. Posts criticizing moderators.
9. Highly divisive, controversial issues such as religion, gun control, politics, etc. There are more appropriate forums for this.

10. Discussions about human or other mammalian anatomy and bodily functions.
11. Posts with the sole goal of inciting flame wars, such as "Don't you think owners of CVs are jerks?"
12. Posts declaring that the mothers of all CV owners are paid to engage in sexual activity.
13. Posts containing explicit (even if thinly veiled) profanity and/or pornography
14. Topics about activities which would result in incarceration. (Police Impersonation)

"From the list above, it would probably be agreed by anyone that items 1 through 6 are totally acceptable. It would also probably agreed by most reasonable people that items 12 through 14 are not. What about items 7 through 11? This is the "gray zone" - the area where different people have different levels of tolerance."
