Only users who have submitted an email address will be able to contribute to comments. Moderators will be reviewing comments regularly and posts which stray from the theme of motoring are discouraged, but as long as they are brief and infrequent, and do not offend the Moderators or the general readership, they will occasionally be tolerated at the discretion of the Moderators.

Use of words which are generally agreed to be offensive is not permitted, and where found will lead to posts which contains them being removed without notice, and the Moderators have discretion to cancel the registration of the authors.

Offensive posts will be removed without notice, and the Moderators have discretion to cancel the registration of the authors.

The comments are not a political instrument, and must not be used to promote a political agenda of any sort. While the expression of personal opinion is encouraged, this should not be at a level which the Moderators consider will deter the general readership from visiting forum. Moderators have discretion to close such a thread.

Posts which contain matter which the Moderators consider might lead to an action for libel will be deleted. The original author of such a post will bear full responsibility for any action brought as a result of its publication in the forum, and will indemnify, the Webmaster, the Moderators, and AROnline against the cost and consequence of that action.

The Webmaster, the Moderators, and AROnline cannot be deemed responsible for any correspondence which results from the publication of an email address in this way. However, any such correspondence which is reported to the Moderators as being unsolicited and unwelcome will lead to the originator of the correspondence losing their registration.
