Rules And Regulations

[icegirljenni]

1) This site to support and talk about Fernando Alonso Diaz

2) There is no shame in not being perfect in written English, we welcome all to post in whatever level they can in English.

3) Please do not be shy in posting this is your forums

4) Do not create a new topic unless it does not exist yet. If you are not sure, try to using "Search" a the top.

5) First and foremost DO NOT engage in derogatory talks about Alonso's wife or his relationships. Talks about how he/she cheated, or how she is not good for him etc.. are really lame. Yes they truly are lame. Unless there is something official about anything, such speculation does not befit a fan forum.

6) Attacks on fellow members are strictly not allowed, if there is a problem report it to the Moderators or Admins only if talks through PMs have failed to yield a compromise. It is always better to use PMs to resolve one on one issues.

7) This is an open forum, and you being a fan of a driver means being supportive and also ready to offer constructive criticisms.

8) No trolling allowed. It is unreasonable to expect Alonso fans in general to be very receptive of pro Mclaren or the Hamilton Camp or similar views in this forums. If a user goes on pressing on the matter trying to gain momentum for such views, they will most likely face stiff resistance, this is trolling. If they so wish to pursue it they have other forums/avenues which are favorable for those views and one must head to those forums.

9) A person who has a view that is not supportive of Fernando Alonso at times is not a troll if she/he has a constructive and sensible point to make. We are all mature enough to know no driver is perfect.

10) Heated debates are alright as long as there is no direct/indirect insulting of the fellow forum members in the open.

11) Remember this forums has people from all walks of life, and you may sometimes get corrected, try to see things with an open mind, it is not needed to always argue with the phrase "its my opinion!" without reconsidering your view and the other's views, if you are sure of your views you will be further able to argue your side and substantiate them with evidence, facts or proof. If someone some still insists then they are completely entitled to their opinions, but we expect most of our users to be open to reason.

12) Members have full freedoms to criticize or defend other drivers apart from Fernando Alonso Diaz with constructive points for or against the subject of discussion about the said driver.

13) Making 'tongue in cheek' mockery of any driver or F1 personality is not a crime, its all in good humor and must be seen as such. In some cases it is even valid.

14) This is not a Renault or Ferrari or Mclaren fan-club, all F1 teams are subjected to the same level of open support, criticisms and/or attacks about various events throughout the seasons in the past present and future. The main aim here is to support Fernando Alonso Diaz, there is no importance placed in team support.

15) When posting pictures please ensure they are reduced to thumbnails, http://www.imageshack.us is very good for this and its easy to have thumbnails that can expand.

16) Suggestive and sexually emotive or repulsive pictures, signature (siggies) or tags are not allowed

17) Please try as much as possible to be not off-topic, it is not a crime to do it occasionally, but it would really help if users stay on topic.

18) You can have your personal webpages mentioned in your profile, as long as they are not links for pornographic sites, adult forums, satanic groups, anti-religious anti-nation sites/forums, terrorist sites/forums, drug advertisements, Body Building anabolics, election campaign lobbying groups and other controversial sites. If found the user will be questioned before a possible ban.

19) Everyone is allowed 1 nickname/ID, double or other aliases are futile, we monitor every registration 1 by 1, and make no mistake we will catch them when they try.

20) While we dont put restrictive rules unlike other forums that you cant have the words such as 'alonso' in your nicknames, try and be practical and sensible with names. An ID like Alonsohimself will not lead to a ban but fellow forums members wont stop from taking a cheeky swipe or two.

21) Moderators have the right to delete SPAM, irritating, off-topic, offensive, provoking or opprobrious posts immediately. They can also remove inappropriate avatars or usernames straight away, without giving any warning in advance.

22) DO NOT post copyrighted material in here without proper credits. Do not steal data and claim it is yours, we the admins will have to deal with the legal warnings from the source later on. If we find out, such material will be deleted and the user will be subjected to disciplinary action. It is always safe to make sure you give credits to the source.

23) DO NOT steal data that is sole property of http://www.alonso-planet.com, we have our moles in places to track this, we can find if our content or discussions have been taken without credits. If you do use please properly credit our forums citing the name and URL of this site. This includes posts, pictures, videos, views, ideas, and comprehensive analysis.

24) DO NOT use this forums solely for advertising products/services.

25) Last but not the least this forum belongs to you the fans, it is not "mine" or the admin's or the moderator's forum and we will not make such claims.

26) *Edited* This forum basically has some anti Hamilton sentiments if you dont feel comfortable with the way members talk about him, please dont join the chat, you CAN NOT complaint to any Admins/Super Moderators, remember what happen to Alonso in season 2007? . He can be referred with any mocking name, but if you dont like that, you can avoid the subject. Nobody will force you to follow suit. DO NOT bring any unnecessary fights related to Lewis Hamilton. Its not worth It! Remember you have agree with the Terms And Conditions after you register here. Unless you did not read this line No:26, which normally wouldnt happen.
