    Mass Forum and Posting Rules-READ BEFORE YOU POST

    The Talking Soccer Forum Administrator has requested that all users must agree
    to the following terms before continued use of the services on the board
    "Talking-Soccer Forum". By posting, you agree to the terms below and agree to
    abide by them.

    You are NOT ALLOWED to post the name or initials of minors (under 18) on this board. If the subject regards an adult, initials will be allowed

    You may post full names on if DIRECTLY quoting public information (newspaper article, etc...) and ONLY that article. The quoting of the article or post containing the article does not then allow the use of the persons name if later posts outside of that context.

    Considering the real-time nature of this message board, it is impossible for us
    to review messages or confirm the validity of information posted. Please
    remember that we do not actively monitor the contents of posted messages and are
    not responsible for any messages posted. We do not vouch for or warrant the
    accuracy, completeness or usefulness of any message, and are not responsible for
    the contents of any message.

    The messages express the views of the author of the message, not necessarily the
    views of Talking-Soccer.com or any entity associated with Talking-Soccer.com.
    The individual member remains solely responsible for the content of their
    messages, and as a potential poster, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless
    Talking-Soccer.com and their agents and employee's with respect to any claim
    based upon transmission of your message(s). Any member whom feels that a posted
    message is objectionable is encouraged to contact us immediately by email. We
    have the ability to remove objectionable messages and we will make every effort
    to do so, within a reasonable time frame, IF we determine that removal is
    necessary. This is a manual process, however, so please realize that we may not
    be able to remove or edit particular messages immediately.

    Be tolerant, understanding and respectful of other people's point of view. If
    you strongly disagree or are upset over somebody's posting, simply respond by
    stating your point of view. Do not criticize, censure or ridicule others for
    their beliefs, opinions or views. Please also take into account the difficulty
    many people have in expressing their precise feelings and emotions in a written
    message.

    Explicit language will not be tolerated and will be evaluated, by our staff, for
    content and could result in membership revocation after one warning.

    Politics, Religion, Race and Sexual Orientation will not be allowed as
    threads/posts topics since they always result in flame wars.

    allowed calling people names, swearing at people, following people around on
    various threads to purposefully bother or harass them, sending them Private
    Messages when they tell you not to, threatening people or just directly
