Expected Behavior and Conduct

Post by lepage71 »

Please demonstrate respectful behavior and conduct at all times.

League members are obligated under the rules to demonstrate respectful behavior and conduct. However, other league participants, such as server users and forum members, are also expected to follow these guidelines. The following text from the rules page applies to all league activities:
Intro. The NASCAR Heat Racing League seeks to promote a positive environment, good sportsmanship, and close competition. We will not hesitate to remove disruptive or disrespectful drivers from the league. As a result, everyone should think twice before acting out their frustrations or insulting other competitors. In the end, the league administrators simply want to assemble a polite group of NASCAR Heat drivers. If this objective sounds unnreasonable, then you should not participate in our league.

III-A 1. Foul language directed at other competitors is prohibited. League members are expected to demonstrate respect towards one another in the server and on the forum.

III-A 2. The league administrators should be notified about conflicts that arise between drivers. We do not accept excuses for revenge scenarios that take place on the race track. Everyone should evaluate whether intentional contact is worth the serious and lasting consequences. Penalties can involve point deductions, suspensions, and even permanent bans.

III-A 3. The NASCAR Heat Racing League does not accept the convenient "heat of the moment" excuse for prohibited language or intentional contact directed at other competitors. The league administrators will not even consider this reasoning when determining penalties for these infractions. A league event should never descend into a firestorm of chaos and disrespect.

III-A 4. Competitors should minimize disturbances during league events. Do not start arguments or write commentaries through the NASCAR Heat chat interface. You should always discuss your problems in private with the league administrators. Drivers who cause pointless disruptions before, during, or after races will be subject to league discipline.
The following actions are considered to be violations of these rules:
1. A deliberate attack or insult.
2. A pointless or spam-like comment intended to provoke a response.
3. An attempt to resolve problems through disruptive actions.
4. A hateful, insulting argument rather than a legitimate, factual debate.
5. An insulting tirade about someone's perceived shortcomings.
Please be encouraging, respectful, and helpful as appropriate. League members who fail to abide by these guidelines may be subject to penalties, suspensions, or removal. Server users and forum members who violate our policies may have their privileges revoked.

Contact a league administrator if you ever have any questions concerning the rules.
