Golf is known a gentleman’s game, and we will conduct these Forums in a manner befitting that tradition. LBG members currently reside in 52 countries and have profoundly different backgrounds and views. This diversity represents a wonderful opportunity for personal growth, and our goal is to encourage interaction in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Since mutual respect is a key to effective collaboration, it is mandatory that discussions be civil and free of personal attacks. In short, we expect members to conduct themselves with dignity and to respect the opinions of their fellows.
Membership in this forum is a privilege, not a right, and certain rules must be followed in order to maintain the integrity of the information and the LBG reputation. Accordingly, no comment will be permitted on this board that:
1. Uses profanity.
2. Is racist.
3. Is morally offensive or otherwise inappropriate.
4. Contains commentary or questions that are significantly off subject for the forum entry under which the comment is posted. (Hijacking)
5. Is a blatant advertisement for another business or service.
6. Contains name calling.
7. Is posted in a deceitful or slanderous manner.
8. Is intended to cause harm, public embarrasment, or damage the reputation of LBG.
9. Uses multiple userid's to conceal and/or manipulate other members responses or opinions.
We reserve the right to ban members abusing the above.
When posting, please stay on topic. If a subject strays, start a new post on the subject or post in an appropriate thread.
LBG respects the privacy of our members. We will never compromise emails, passwords, or other data intended as private, personal information unless required by law. Other than "cookies" which are used with the forum application, LBG does not use any form of "spyware" or tools that would be downloaded to client computers in order to monitor member activity. Members who are breaking the simple rules described above are identified using readily available and common Industry Standard tools for comparing IP addresses with UserID's. We will make every effort to address rule breaking in a dignified manner. Additional privacy information can be found in our privacy statement. We reserve the right to modify the above policy as needed and will immediately notify the membership of any changes.
'Nuff said. Now let's get on to having some great golf discussion!
