Community Rules
Here is a list of Community Rules that must be considered whenever you post, comment or message on the Camping and Caravanning Club’s Forum.
Post, comments or messages that break these rules may be deleted or removed at the discretion of The Club. In extreme or persistent cases, the member profile associated with the contravening posts, comments or messages may be barred from the Camping and Caravanning Club’s Forum.
The purpose of this Forum is to provide you with the opportunity to share with fellow campers your experiences and thoughts on The Club, and camping and caravanning in general. Please treat other people with respect and remember that something you intend as a joke or feel is harmless can be easily misconstrued.
To ensure your message/comment/post remains on this Forum it’s important to avoid:
- Abusive or threatening language, or those that incite hatred against any social or ethnic group
- Hate speech
- Sexually explicit or indecent text, or content containing obscenities or profanities
- Potentially defamatory comments, or anything that you have not created yourself
- Overly negative comments
- Posts and comments containing personal details (such as your email, phone number, password or address)
- SHOUTING using capital letters
- Posts or comments that condone or promote illegal activities
- Spamming (i.e. the submission of the same or very similar comments/posts/messages many times)
- Providing links/url’s to other sites that would contravene these house rules
- Advertising, commercial promotion or campaigning of any kind
- Impersonation of any person, alive or deceased, real or fictional
- Misrepresenting your experiences
We at The Camping and Caravanning Club take seriously any grievances and/or complaints by members and non-members alike. However, it’s the Club’s policy not to resolve specific, individual complaints here on our Forum. As such, please be aware that any comments regarding a specific, individual complaint will be removed. We will investigate the complaint and contact you privately in order to work towards a resolution.
The Club Forum is a community where people use their authentic identities. Club members may only post and comment on the Forum using their real name, so that members always know who they are connecting and conversing with. In light of this, please be careful not to disclose any personal details, either on the Club forum or elsewhere on the internet, which would enable someone to build a profile on your whereabouts and holiday habits.
For those who are particularly security conscious, you may also wish to choose an avatar which does not bear any realistic likeness to yourself. Why not use a photo of your unit instead?
If you or another member reports a comment or another user via the appropriate channel, the Camping and Caravanning Club’s group of moderators will aim to respond within 72hours. The report must be done either by using the ‘report’ button on the forum, or by emailing: onlineforum@campingandcaravanningclub.co.uk directly.
These guidelines will be under constant review and revisions will be made on a regular basis where appropriate. As always, we welcome feedback and suggestions from our members.
