This Thread has been created to help combat recent and past disruptive behavior.

Just a reminder to all users.When signing up to participate in this forum, you agreed to abide by these rules. PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF RULE 3
These rules will be STRICTLY ENFORCED
in the Adelaide Pocket Bike Association Forum. These rules are here to make this forum enjoyable and accessible to all.
Breaking of these rules is not only bad for other users, but gives a negative tone to the sport on a whole. The has been more than one offender and sly attacks at other users, do not go unnoticed either.

The Golden Rules

1. There will be no profanity or foul language. Any un-called for language will be removed and you will receive a final warning.

2. There will be no racial, ethnic, gender based insults or any other personal discriminations.

3. There will be no offensive comments at another member, in a manner which is offensive or inflammatory.

4. No Spamming: You will be reported to Google.

5. No Pornography, warez, or any other illegal transactions may NOT be linked in any shape or form.

6. Users may not argue a moderators decision publicly. Any and all complaints directed at a moderator must first address the moderator in question via PM. If the problem can not be resolved, then the moderator and user must send their positions to the forum admin. The forum admin will make or change any and/or all final decisions.

7. No offensive pictures. If you plan to post more than one image, or the topic is based on graphics, please link the images rather than screening.

8. Signatures must be less than 255 characters. Non sponsoring Pocket Bike dealers are not permitted to link to their site and/or display their commercial email address.

9. No Advertising unless you're a sponsor

11. Do not Impersonate anyone.

12. Correct use of the English language is a requirement of use of this forum. Use of broken English, short hand and SMS chat will not be tolerated your post may be edited or deleted at a moderator's discretion.

13. For posts based on technical issues please provide details of the issue including what happened leading up to the problem and what you have done so far to try correct it. This is done to benefit all users who use the forum search engine and so you may receive the best response possible.

Violation of any of these rules will result in consequences determined on a case-by-case basis.

To be safe, just be polite, constructive, and on topic.
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

true morty & from what i can see its been getting a lil rough in here for younger users & parents who let view the forum lets face it this is a family sport & as i see it its time for a crackdown as there has been little enforcement of the rules & feel more moderators are required ???


i myself have given a few infractions & edited alot of posts but admin has final decision on what gos on in the forum not the moderators

mods are just here to delete spam edit posts threads & try to keep threads running sorta smooth we have no say in how things are done !!! hahaha we can only pass greivences on if pm'd or contacted reading every single thread between less than half a dozen moderators is hard sometimes stuff gets overlooked & or totally missed we can only do what the users ask RE: the poll

not having a go at anyone just a poll to see what forum users think b4 i bring it up with admin

i only contact admin for forum problems or downtime unless asked

I did think the survey question was a little bit to vague, didnt stop me from voting :P.

Now this no swearing rules, that obviously means no F's or C's or even S's, but what else is considered swear words to you? I spose you can't list them... hhmmm that might be a tricky one to answer

Also are we allowed to swear but with censorship? eg F--k or sh!t? well the second one is a bit too obvious.

The South Park Movie - It's Easy MMMKay Lyrics

[Mr. Mackey:] There are times when you get suckered in
By drugs and alchohol and sex with women-mmkay
But its when you do these things too much
That you've become an addict and must get back in touch
You can do it Its all up to you-mmmmmkay
With a little plan you can change your life tooo-day
You dont have to spend your life addicted to smack
Homeless on the streets giving handjobs for crack
Follow my plan and very soon you will see-eeyy, its easy mmkay

Step 1: Instead of ass say buns, like "kiss my buns" or "you're a buns hole"

Step 2: Instead of **** say poo, as in "bull poo", "poo head" and this "poo is cold"

Step 3: With bitch drop the t because bich is latin for generosity

Step 4: Dont say f*** any more because f*** is the worst word that you can say

So just use the word mmmkay!


[Children:] We can do it its all up to us-mmmkay (mmmkay)
With a little plan we can change our lives tooo-day
Mr, Mackey: you can change it today
Everyone: We don't have to spend our lives shootin up in the trash
Homeless on the streets giving handjobs for cash
Follow this plan and very soon you will see-eey
Its easy mmkay!

[Mr. Mackey:] Step 1 Children: Instead of ass say buns,
like kiss my buns or you're a buns hole

[Mr. Mackey:] Step 2 Children: Instead of shit say poo,
as in bull poo, poo head and this poo is cold

[Mr. Mackey:] Step 3 Children: With bitch drop the t
because bich is latin for generosity

[Mr. Mackey:] Step 4 Children: Dont say f*** any more

[Everyone:] Cuz f*** is the worst word that you can say
[Children:] F*** is the worst word that you can say
We shouldn't say f***, no we shouldn't say f***, f*** nooooo!!!
[Mr. Mackey:] Your cured, you can go!
[Everyone:] We don't have to spend our lives shootin up in the trash
homeless on the streets giving handjobs for cash
Follow this plan and very soon you will saaay
Its easy mmmkay!
[Children:] It's easy mmmkay!
[Mr. Mackey:] It's easy mmmkay!
[Children:] It's easy mmmkay!
[Mr. Mackey:] It's easy mmmkaaaaaaaayy
[Children:] It's easy mmm
It's easy mmm
It's easy mmm
It's easy mmmkaaaay
[both finish at same time]
[laughing]
[Mr. Mackey:] Mmmkay
Mmmkay
Mmmkay
