this gos for the whole forum alot of people have been getting off without warnings
from now on all moderators will give infractions to anyone who breakes the forum rules
jnr members may get a warning first depending on the decision of moderators or admain has final decision

that said the older users & some mods me included will edit slight swearing & have used it ourself like @$$ or f*% this usually gets your point across
but still there are young users & parents who frequent the forum so & bad language font fights personal attacks & other things in a public forum that should be kept private will only hinder the sport & clubs supporting pocket bike & mini moto

i will get on to admin about a word filter to filter out the worst of it
