I mentioned this before, and I think the administrators should filter more accurately, as there is no point in insulting either drivers, other persons involved or members of this forum.

To call one of the top drivers an idiot, a team cheaters or members of the forum psychopaths doesnt raise its level.


COME ON :!:

PS: Im happy for Liverpool and the Czech boys, winning the Ice-hockey WC plus the Champions league is not bad for our small country :!: :wink: :shock: :lol: :lol: :lol: :!:

I fully agree F1greyhound but as we are all human things could get missed and if you think something was missed, feel free to PM or email me at anytime.

Regarding calling a driver an idiot, that isn't right I agree but in this case it was conditional on whether he intended to brake test or not. I think we would all agree that it is a big no no for someone to brake test in F1, especially Monaco

Regarding calling a team cheaters, we try to ensure that it is an opinion of the poster rather than a fact. There are cases that arise like the Team orders for example is illegal yet an action on the track can appear to be a team order and hence some would call that team a cheat. Our view is that as long as it is clear that it is the opinion of the poster, we'll allow such remarks.
However that doesn't mean someone can call a driver/team a cheat every time that driver/team gets mentioned.

Regarding calling other forum members psycopaths, that was edited and left out to be open to interpretation

Our aim is to cater for all F1 fans and with your help I am sure we can do that. It takes a bit of effort from everyone so lets all try to be respectful towards the opinions of others.

Again, if there is a post that you don't think is appropriate, please let me know by PM or email and we will attempt to address it.
