📋 Forum Rules - Please Read Before Posting

Welcome to the Caravanvio Community Forum! We're glad you're here. To keep this a friendly, helpful and safe space for everyone, please take a moment to read through these rules before you start posting. --- **1. Be Respectful and Courteous** Treat other members the way you'd want to be treated. No offensive language, personal attacks, name-calling, or aggressive behaviour will be tolerated. Healthy debate is welcome - being unpleasant is not. **2. No Offensive or Inappropriate Language** Keep it clean. Swearing, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, and sexually explicit content are not allowed anywhere on the forum. **3. Protect Your Privacy - and Everyone Else's** Never share personal information in public posts. This includes: - Phone numbers - Home addresses - Email addresses - Bank details or payment information - Your exact location or caravan pitch number If you need to exchange contact details with another member, use private messages (coming soon) or handle it off-platform. Caravanvio will never ask for your password or payment details via forum posts. **4. Stay On Topic** Please post in the most relevant category. If a discussion drifts, start a new thread rather than derailing an existing one. Threads posted in the wrong section may be moved by moderators. **5. No Spam, Advertising or Soliciting** - No unsolicited advertising of products, services or other websites - No repetitive posting or "bumping" threads excessively - Affiliate links must be clearly disclosed - Buying and selling of caravans and accessories is welcome - but only in the "Buy & Sell" section **6. Buying and Selling Rules** The "Buy & Sell" section is for private sales only. Commercial traders should contact Caravanvio directly. All transactions are between members - Caravanvio is not responsible for any deals made on the forum. Use common sense and never send money to someone you don't trust. **7. Report Problems, Don't Escalate Them** If you see a post that breaks the rules, do not engage. Use the report function or contact a moderator. Public arguments about rule-breaking just make things worse. **8. One Account Per Person** Multiple accounts are not permitted. If you've lost access to your account, contact support rather than creating a new one. **9. Moderator Decisions Are Final** Our moderation team works hard to keep this community healthy. If a moderator edits or removes your post, or issues a warning, please respect that decision. You can appeal by contacting us privately, but arguing in public won't help. --- **Consequences of Breaking the Rules:** - First minor offence: Friendly reminder from a moderator - Repeated or serious offences: Temporary posting suspension - Severe or persistent violations: Permanent account ban --- We want this to be the best caravan community on the internet - and that only works if everyone plays their part. Thanks for reading, and happy posting! — The Caravanvio Team
