Terms and Conditions

This online forum is independently operated by RR Forums. The RROCA bears no responsibility for this site. This forum is provided for the general public. Membership, however, is contingent on your agreeing to abide by the terms and conditions detailed herein.

Accounts

• You agree to use your real name when registering for an account.
• You agree to not share accounts or register multiple accounts for a single user.
• You agree to not change your real name in your profile after registration.
• You agree to not attempt to circumvent any suspension or restriction of access placed on you by the administrators or moderators of RR Forums.

Content

• By using RR Forums you warrant that you will not post any messages that are obscene, vulgar, sexually or racially derogative, hateful, threatening, belligerent or otherwise in violation of any laws.
• Members will be kind, courteous, dignified and respectful in every way. No direct or indirect personal attacks or insults of any kind, toward any thing, will be allowed. Posts which antagonize, belittle or humiliate others will not be tolerated, nor will racism, sexism, misogyny, bigotry, foul language or encouragement of or incitement to illegal or violent acts. Politics, religion and sex are not to be discussed.
• You may not post copyrighted information without the express permission of all copyright holder(s).  If permission has been granted this must be stated clearly wherever copyrighted material is reproduced.
  
• You will use plain English in your messages and remain at all times concise and to the point. Keep in mind that English is not the first language of many of our members and visitors, and quaint modes of expression may be difficult for them to comprehend.
• This forum being dedicated to Rolls-Royce and Bentley related topics, you will refrain from posting messages that are not obviously relevant to those topics.

Appropriateness

A primary aim of any Rolls-Royce or Bentley custodian should be the preservation of the entire vehicle in a condition as close to original as possible.
Accordingly, discussion in this forum about maintenance, repair or restoration of Rolls-Royce or Bentley vehicles must adhere to this aim. It follows that

• Promoting or discussing any fundamental vehicle modification that departs significantly from the original Rolls-Royce or Bentley design or intent for that vehicle is not permitted.
• Only where aftermarket replacement parts are functionally indistinguishable from genuine parts may use of such parts be promoted or discussed.
• Only when parts of original design are no longer available may replacement with suitable non-identical parts be promoted or discussed.
• A modification from original may be promoted or discussed if it can be easily and cheaply reverted by a subsequent custodian such that no evidence of it remains.

If the moderators consider a thread or post to be in violation of the above it will be subject to closure, alteration or deletion without notice or discussion.
Where any doubts arise on what is an acceptable modification you must apply commonsense and reasonableness. You might ask yourself "Would Sir Henry approve?"

Moderation

• You will obey any instructions or directives issued to you by the moderators or administrators with regard to your activities on the forum, without dispute.
  
• You acknowledge that the RROCA bears no responsibility for this forum and will not hold them accountable for anything contained therein.

Breach of any of these conditions can result in anything up to a permanent suspension.
