OK in the past its been pretty uneven about wat is ok and not. But unfortunately a lot of members and mods are not happy with the way things are goin and therefore some changes hav been made to the rules. These are the rules set by the Site mods and you will abide by them. Therefore from this point on there will be no defamation of any kind to any other user regardless of wat they did. By all means u can disagree with then. But it does not give you the right to make derogatory comments. Anyway these are the rules we must all follow yes even the mods !

Strict rules:

The first offense will results in suspension for three (3) days. Any subsequent offenses will result in a ban.

1. Flames, Derogatory Insults, Harassment.

Flames, harassment, Abusive and Negative Posts are against the rules on this site. If you disagree with another member, please do so in a mature and civil discussion. If another member flames or attacks you, please do not grace that member with a response. If you do, please do not use nissansilvia.com to do it. We suggest that you use the warn button to report the incident to a moderator.

2. Sexism and Racism.

Sexism and Racism are NOT TOLERATED on Nissansilvia.com under ANY circumstances.

3. Threatening other members.

Threats towards other board members, including physical violence, property damage, death threats or any other nature will not be tolerated. This will result in an instant warning.

4. Think about it before you write.

Comments like "St*pid F*cking b@stard cop" are obviously not allowed, with threads containing this content being deleted without warning, any members who have shown to post like this will be banned.

5. Businesses and Defamation.

If you are having problems with a business and would like to seek some advice, reframe from writing the business name as you may wind up in a bigger mess, including defamatory charges.

If people would like to make comment about a bad experience with a business in reply to a members post, try sending a PM or keeping to the facts in the post.

Dealing with the backlash from defamatory posts often end up taking up alot of our time and resources, therefore we can not afford to tolerate this sort of behaviour from our members.

Nissansilvia.com may not be held liable for the views and opinions of it's members, however we do moderate comments to the best of our ability to make sure defamatory statements are delt with.

5. Illegal Activities

Posts encouraging illegal/unethical action are not allowed.

6. Harmful URL’s
Posting any URLs with the intent of causing malicious or harmful results to reader’s computers will result in a minimum of 2 days suspension on the first offence. A repeat offender will be banned.

7. Attacks against Sponsors

Sponsor Bashing is not allowed. The help pay for the forums and are afforded some protection. If you have a problem with a sponsor, please take it up with the sponsor directly, or if all other avenues are exhausted, the webmaster.

8. Attacking forum moderators and administrators.

Attacking forum moderators and administrators is never a good idea. The likely result will be a warning, suspension or banning. If you have a problem with a particular moderator, please send a personal message detailing the problem to an admin. We will do our best to treat each case fairly and equally.

General rules:

The first offense will results in suspension for three (3) days. Any subsequent offenses will result in a ban.

Posting in inappropriate Forums and Threads

Please select the correct forum for your thread. Posts in the incorrect area will be either moved or deleted possibly with or without warning.
Please do NOT hijack a thread. If it is not your thread to vary the topic, do not. Posts will be deleted without warning.

The 'For Sale' Sections

Members will not be allowed to create threads in the for sales section until they have made 100 posts. This ensures that members contribute to the site before they start to reap the benefits.
No bumping of threads is allowed. Useless posts such as “good luck with sale” will be removed by the moderators, so please do not make them. In the for sale forums, KEEP out of the thread unless you're the buyer, the seller, or an interested party. Do NOT make unsolicited recommendations, FULL STOP.
Bumping, useless posts and unsolicited recommendations WILL result in a warning.

Hi and welcome to NissanSilvia : Victoria

This forum is moderated by YogiR33, SXKITY, SXWPN, XDrift and Xris

Now remember to abide by the general forum rules and guidelines which can be found here : NS Rules and Guidlines

Now theres just a few other things that you should be aware of to make your stay at NS enjoyble and hassel free.

This club has been very active since 2002 and its member base is ever growing. Though it mainly caters to S13, S14 and S15 Silvias you will find that many users own other Nissan Imports as well.

Having said this, you are not the first to encounter a problem with your car and most likley someone has already asked this question on the forums and gotten an answer. Even questions about mods or the operation of something will most likely hav been asked and answered before.

To do this run a SEARCH, and simply click on this :






And then you will come to this screen and simply fill it out and hit the Search button






Ok so wat if you got a legal question, well then check out this thread : Legal Advice

In here there are numerous questions about legality of mods and current laws. If your question is not there then simply post it and one of our resident experts (Smokey and The Professor) will answer the question. Please Note : Do not use any profanity in this thread nor attack these two users. They hav been kind enough to give us advice in their own free time so show some courtesy.

Wat if i saw a nice ride and wanna see if they are on NS ????
Well theres 2 ways to go about it. You can either :
Go to the Who's who thread, post your own details and look thru and see if that person is on NS. You can find the link here : Who's who of NS

or

You can ask in the Spotted Thread and hopefully someone can answer your question, you can find this here : Spotted Thread

Now there are 2 sections to the NS:Vic section. There is :
General : where all your main threads exist and your main annoucements that you should always check out. Which is here :






Events : This is where all info about upcoming cruises, dyno days, weekly meets and other events that occur in vic reside

Remember to always post in the right section and to make sure that if you are posting a question to run a search first.

Also remember that regardless of your age, sex, ride, expeirence you will be lacking the credibility that some long term users have. To avoid any flaming and general confusion/hassels please refrain from abusive postin and askin irrelevant questions.

Remember the Golden rule : Treat others as you would want to be treated by them.

Also please note that NS does NOT condone the engagment and/or discussion of illegal activities eg drag racing, street drift.

So before u post anything, check out the who's who thread post about yourself in there. Check out wen the next weekly meet is in your area in the events section(currently these are in the South east, north and west suburbs) and then happy posting.

If ever in doubt or you run into problems do not hesitate to PM a mod(Vic or Site)
