Message Boards - Terms of Service

 

Be Clean: Adhere to decency and refrain from obscenity. No vulgar, abusive or hateful language.

Be Nice: No posting of material that antagonizes, harasses, or creates hostility toward another user or group of users.

Be Courteous: No posting to purposely interfere with normal dialog flow.

Be Polite: No targeting of another user by harassing or giving unwarranted attention to or attacking ones race or gender.

Be Prudent: Use the subject classifications already setup in forums for your posts. If you need a new subject area, contact CoachT.

Be Real: We require your E-Mail address and zip code, so others will know where you are coming from. The password system insures no one can impersonate you. We reserve the right to disallow the use of Web Based E-Mail accounts as contact addresses due to the ease of impersonation and use of fake names when using these services. Multiple user names by the same person is unacceptable and could result in termination of ALL such names.

Be Spam Free: Please don't post the same material to multiple areas. Please no commercial postings or self-serving messages. This is a discussion board.

Be Understanding: We reserve the right to delete any message we feel violates any of these rules. Please report any abuse to CoachT. Repeated violation of any rules results in termination of your account.

Be Accepting: If you violate the above guidelines, be assured you will either have your post deleted, or your access denied or both. If you are here to incite flames and/or antagonize users be assured you will be removed from the forum.

Be Observant: Read the instructions that are presented on the screen. Many frustrations can be avoided by educating yourself on proper usage of our system.

Be Trustworthy: Do not post private email from others that you have received directly from them. If they want their words public, let them post it.

Be Responsible: Do not post slanderous, libelous, or any defamatory statements on the Message Boards. We will not be held responsible for your posts, but just the same, we'd rather not go there! Posts that appear to be defamatory should have supporting references included.

Be Aware: While all opinions are welcome, we do not tolerate mean-spirited, antagonistic, flame baiting posts. We only accept civilized, polite, friendly discourse. If you cannot live by this rule, do not post.

Be Informed: Reading the rules and any messages or announcements posted by moderators is your responsibility. Don't be surprised by the actions taken by the moderators because you violated the rules. Our members insist we enforce these rules, as they are here to enjoy a friendly, civilized discussion board, that stays on topic and discusses the topics of Tennessee high school athletics.

Be Observant: Watch for any announcements posted by the moderators in the Questions and Comments forum.

Be Selective: Don't buy into the flame bait that some members may post. You may be drawn into a "flame war" and we do not tolerate it. Report any potential rule violations to us, and resist replying.

Be Private: If you have any concerns or criticism on how we operate these message boards, do NOT post your query on the site. Send us an email and we'll explain any issue you have. If you decide to publicly show your ignorance on the board, you only make a fool of yourself, before we can explain and correct any misperception you may have of our operation and rules.

Be Gone: If you are under the impression that these are free-for-all forums, or that we somehow are a public discussion center that allows all FREE SPEECH, you can go elsewhere. This is a privately operated website and has established rules of etiquette. You are a guest here and have been extended privileges provided you follow our rules. These message boards are not your right. You are not given a right to post anything you want here. If you cannot deal with these rules, feel free to find an uncivilized forum out there.

Be Welcomed: If you are looking for a message board that encourages civilized discussion and a relaxed environment, this is your place to be.
