Forums and Reddit Terms of Use

When posting material in the forum, please ensure you follow these simple instructions:

  • Civility

We’re all friends here, so let’s keep it that way. Please don’t engage in personal attacks, name-calling or blanket generalisations in your discussions. Say how you feel or what you think but be careful about ascribing motives to the actions of others or telling others how they “should” think. Engagement and discussion is much more rewarding to taking cheap shots and intimidation.

  • Language

Rusty Quill does not employ language or profanity filters. We believe in our users to write coherently and engagingly and not in long strings of obscenities. Unless it’s justified. Seriously though, we’re not going pull someone up on account of swearing but just be sensible about it please. It’s possible that we will have minors browsing the site, so best to be aware of that.

We reserve the right to edit or delete any material we think might be discriminatory, inflammatory or just plain offensive though we will seek to engage in constructive discussion in most cases.

  • Referencing

When referencing any content from an ‘official source’ or some material whose copyright you do not hold or have the right to reproduce, please reference the material rather than simply copying it. Book and page references are much appreciated. Do not post the contents of the books themselves.
