If
you are a ROGUE member simply create an account, respond
to the automatic e-mail the system will send you & I
will then approve the registration ASAP.

you are not a ROGUE member your registration request will
be declined & you will get a "BANNED"
message when you try to logon)
Please note: if you have not paid
your membership dues then you are not a member!
If
you register for the forum more than 24 hours before you
have become a member you will be deleted from the
registration queue & will have to re-register to be
approved for the forum.

This forum was created as a focused think
tank to yield concise factual information with regards to
technical aspects of the RC51 as well as a place for
members to share their experiences & schedule group
activities.
IF YOU CAME TO TALK ABOUT STUNTING
GO AWAY NOW!
The following rules are
strictly enforced:
All of you are either
members of ROGUE, approved retailers or an advisor that I
personally trust so I must assume that everyone is here
with the intention of contributing to the good of the
group in a positive manner.
That does not mean I don't want some controversy &
arguements in the forums, but I do want all
correspondence to remain civil.
1. Title your posts accordingly! If you want to post
about Erion Exhaust cans then call it "Erion exhaust
question" or Erion something etc... Don't title it
"question for you guys" or "have you seen
this?" Posts of this type will end up being deleted.
2. Anyone deliberately antagonising or provoking other
members will have his/her membership revoked without
recourse.
3. Anyone making personal threats to another member will
be banned immediately.
4. Explicit language used in a defamatory manner will be
evaluated, by myself and/or moderators I appoint, for
content & could result in membership revocation after
one warning.
4a. Other members of the forum are encouraged to notify
me via e-mail if they deem any thread inappropriate for
the group.
5. Anybody found allowing their user LOGON & PASSWORD
to be used by ANYONE else to access the forums will have
their membership revoked without recourse & yes we do
check IP addresses.
5a. Anyone using their access to retrieve information to
be used against or to discredit or defame the ROGUE
organization in any way will have their membership
revoked without recourse.
6. As this is a closed forum I see no reason why you
cannot express your true feelings about any company,
agency, business etc... However, if legal action is taken
by any such company I will follow all laws applicable to
the issues of revealing identity of the poster(s) as well
as turning over transcripts of the forum.
NOTE: The feasability of incurring legal action in a
closed forum is slim at best, but could happen especially
in this sue happy day & age. Of course as long as we
all follow rule #4 there probably won't be anything to
worry about.
7. It's ok to cross reference information between
threads, but if you jump in a duplicate a thread that is
already in discussion then don't be surprised to find
that your thread has been deleted.
7a. There is a search function that is extremely easy to
use with great results available on the forum.
8. Threads & pics posted solely for humorous reasons
or are non-rc51 related including dialogues between
individual members or posts for saying thanks to another
member for services or parts rendered etc.. will be
temporarily left for everyone to view, but will
eventually be deleted to keep the topics streamlined
& RC51 oriented.
9. No Commercial postings allowed unless you are a site
approved retailer. Violation of this rule will get you
banned. The classifieds section is for personal RC51/SP
related items only.
9a. Do not start a post to inform other members that
someone is selling some item on Ebay! If the members want
to know this they would be on Ebay instead of this forum.
10. No group buys! The only members allowed to offer
group buy deals are the site approved retailers &
they must be either the distributor or sole retailer of
the product being offered.
11. If you have an RC51 related question for me, please
post it in the forum instead of e-mailing me. Chances are
someone else has a similar question, plus you can get
more answers than just mine.
12. No discussions or tangents of synthetic versus
conventional oils or chain lubes allowed!
13. Use the categories for their intended topics. Posts
placed in inappropriate categories will be deleted on
sight.
14. DO NOT POST RACE RESULTS in the subject line of any
thread & only post threads of that nature in the
"racing forum". Just because you have seen the
race doesn't mean everyone else has as we are all on
different TV coverage schedules all over the world etc
& we do not want to spoil the ending for people that
enjoy the suspense of not knowing who's going to win.
This is really nothing more than common courtesy &
consideration for others so if you break this rule twice
your membership will be revoked.
15. When you register you must use your real name in the
"required" field. This is to help insure that
we are all on the same level & to remind us that we
shold be respectful of each other just as if we were
standing face to face. Being that this is a mature forum
this should not be a problem with anyone here if it is I
don't want you to be a part of this forum so if at any
time you alter this to remove or replace your real full
name, you will be banned from the forum.
16. Don't make me have to write any more damn rules.
NOTE: Thread & message deletions occur for
numerous reasons: Some simply because they are not RC51
related or they have become stagnant with no more page
views others because they are not in the right category
or titled appropriately & some are simply
inappropriate for this type of forum. Wednesday's have
traditionally been the day that clean-up, discards &
reorganization takes place, but it can happen at any
given time.
BUSINESS RULES:
Business Owners, Retailers/Distributors & Reps must
be approved by the forum ADMINISTRATORS PRIOR to offering
any items or services for sale & will be asked to use
the Merchants Corner for posting info &
prices for such items. The Forum Fee for allowing
Merchants to offer items or services for sale is $125 for
a 3 month venue. This fee gives the merchant the right to
post items for sale in the dedicated areas of the forum
as well as place an ad on the "For Sale" page
of the main rc51.org site.
The main forum is to be used for answering specific
questions & feedback about products or any other
insight you might have, but pricing & promotions stay
in the Merchants Corner
All Rules are subject to change without notice
