We rely on all forum members to help keep these discussion forums a safe place for people to share and view information. To do this, we request that all members comply with the following rules when contributing to the discussion forums:

Keep it friendly. Be nice.

Be courteous and respectful. Appreciate that others may have an opinion different from yours.

Stay on topic. When creating a new discussion thread, give a clear topic title and put your post in the appropriate category. When contributing to an existing discussion, try to stay 'on topic'. If something new comes up within a topic that you would like to discuss, start a new thread.

Share your knowledge. Don't hold back in sharing your knowledge – it's likely someone will find it useful or interesting. When you give information, provide your sources.

Refrain from: demeaning, discriminatory, or harassing behavior and speech.

We maintain the rights to remove posts and threads to ensure that material posted in the discussion forums is not potentially harmful. For this reason, we may edit or choose not to publish any post, that:

contains disrespectful or derogatory remarks about any person

contains advice or content that we believe is damaging, unhelpful or distressing to others

contains swearing or offensive language, is nonsensical and/or irrelevant

promotes personal beliefs in a way that is disrespectful of the choices of others

is racist, sexist, homophobic, sexually explicit or suggestive, abusive or otherwise discriminatory or objectionable

Key points to remember when posting to the forum:

Use clear and descriptive titles: Summarize the main point of your post in the title for easy identification.

Provide enough context: If asking a question, include details about the situation to get accurate answers.

Back up your claims: When sharing information on a topic, cite reliable sources if necessary.

Engage with other users: Respond to replies, acknowledge different perspectives, and participate in discussions.
