Please feel free to contact the administrators of this forum for site feedback, registration problems or other inquiries by using the PM function. We will respond to your messages as soon as we can. (We all have jobs, and do this in our spare time).
This is a community driven forum, and we hope that this helps the Event continue to grow and foster a thriving automotive community in Birmingham and the surrounding areas. 
The board administration and its moderators at bhmcarscoffee.boards.net ask that our members follow a few basic rules in order to ensure a friendly atmosphere. Failure to do so may result in a violation. Violations will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis and may result in warnings or expulsion from the forums. This will be decided upon at the discretion of the board administration and its moderators. Contributing members are encouraged to report any violations and make recommendations regarding our site.
The Code of Conduct is as follows:
1. Trolling, flaming, and bashing are not acceptable at bhmcarscoffee.boards.net. Trolling includes, but is not limited to posting controversial messages with the intention of baiting other users into an argumentative response. Flaming includes, but is not limited to insulting and hostile interaction between users. Bashing, likewise, is also not permitted. All communications are to remain on a respectful and mature level. Do not retaliate to an inappropriate post with another inappropriate post. Instead use the "Report post to moderator" button, or simply PM your moderators if such an instance should arise.
2. No tolerance is given for racist and derogatory remarks.
3. Respect your moderators. The moderators are volunteers and avid enthusiasts who graciously donate their time to bhmcarscoffee.boards.net. This online community would not be possible without their assistance.
4. Accessing or attempting to access another members account is prohibited. Purposeful invasion of a forum members privacy is also prohibited.
5. Members are to have only one username. Creating an additional username after expulsion from the site will result in blocking the user's IP address.
6. Nudity of any type is not permitted within the forums. This includes the Off-Topic forums. Threads with adult content are to be posted in the "OFF-TOPIC" forum and must contain "NWS" in the thread title as a courtesy to other members. These will be strictly monitored. Please be respectful of other members values. Forums outside of the Off-Topic forums are to maintain a G Rating.
7. All posts are to be related to the topic of the thread they are discussed within. Post that are off-topic of the original post are subject to being deleted.
8. Signatures must be of appropriate length. Signature photos and graphics must also be kept minimal in size.

11. In addition to the aforementioned rules, questionable or undesirable content deemed inappropriate by the administration or the moderators will be subject to review on a case-by-case basis.
Vendor and Solicitation Threads
Please contact the administrators for more details on becoming a bhmcarscoffee.boards.net sponsor or vendor by using the "PM Function"
Bhmcarscoffee.boards.net prohibits the advertising and solicitation of products and/or services from businesses and/or their agents without prior consent from one of the Administrators of this forum. Please PM an Administrator for clarification or permission BEFORE starting a thread or listing a business in your signature. Audits are randomly done and bans and citations will be given to violators of this rule. Each citation is reviewed on a case-by-case basis by the site administrators and moderators.
Violating vendors of the rules below may receive a forum ban.
1. Vendor advertisements Threads are to be posted in the Vendor Classifieds forum. Threads announcing promotions and discounts should be placed in the Vendor Classifieds forum. Cross-posting a thread announcing promotions and discounts across multiple forums is considered spamming and is prohibited.
• New product announcement threads can go in the applicable forum, but sales of the product should go in the vendor forum.
2. Vendors are allowed to organize Group Buys by initiating a thread in the Vendor Classifieds forum. Cross-posting a Group Buy thread across multiple forums is considered spamming and is prohibited.
3. Signatures Advertisements are allowed but we ask to keep it of appropriate length. We also ask to add information on your signature line stating the company you work for, etc., so members know you are a vendor.
4. Bhmcarscoffee.boards.net members who choose to rate sellers in classified threads must post with a FIRST-HAND and FACTUAL account of a transaction and/or product. If for any unfortunate reason you must post a negative experience, please be professional about the matter. There is a very thin line with posting an account of a negative experience and defamation.
5. Vendors shall refrain from posting in other vendors product development and sales threads.
6. Vendors shall not entice other vendors by referencing competing products in their development and sales threads.
7. Any violations observed should be reported using the “Report Post” icon to bring this to the attention of the site administrators and moderators.
These rules are provided to keep bhmcarscoffee.boards.net a fun and productive place for our members and sponsors, and may be amended at any time. Any questions, please contact the site administrators.
