Welcome!
This Vlog is strictly moderated.

Messages express the views of their authors, not of the operator of Beyond Black and White (BB&W).

BB&W is not responsible for the content of any message.

Copyrighted Material

Do not post copyrighted material. Instead of copying-and-pasting articles, photos, or other material you find on the Internet, you should be posting links to those articles. Posting a snippet from the article and then the link is the appropriate way to post.

Anything close to spam will be deleted.

Only one screen name is permitted per user. Your screen name may not be your email, business name or your profession, this would be advertising, and is forbidden. Screen names must not be racist, vulgar or inappropriate in any way. The Moderators and Administrators have final say in what is or is not appropriate.

Creation of active links is enabled for users that have been here for more than three days and have a couple posts already. Links to competitors’ sites are at the discretion of the site owner may be deleted.

Rules of the road
Be civil, no personal attacks, flaming, or insults. We may attack ideas respectfully but we do not attack the speaker of the idea. Be careful with your words, there is a point where being direct crosses a line into blunt, in-your-face hostility. Please, flag posts instead of engaging in flame wars on this flog. Insulting another member or a moderator will not be tolerated.

If you disagree with something, say so, but explain WHY.

Stay on topic. Attempts to hi-jack threads by switching topics or going off topic will be deleted and subject to banning. When people attempt to derail the subject discussed the threads often stop being useful discussions of initial topics.

Hate speech, racism or bashing of ANY sort will NOT be tolerated. Rude posts will be removed and infractions issued. Racial slurs will result in the post being deleted.

“Trolling” is prohibited. Do not quote or talk to trolls or your posts will also be deleted. Use the flag feature instead.

“Outing” users by revealing their address, phone number, e-mail or other information that they didn’t themselves share on our forum is prohibited. It is a bad idea to post your email address or to make it public without scrambling it somehow – there are web crawlers gathering email address for spammers.

Discussing moderator actions (deleting/moving/editing threads or posts) is not permitted.

No “I’m leaving” messages please.
