Site Guidelines

At Jeffwithag.com we encourage you to be yourself as long as you always act with respect for your fellow members. You are not expected to leave your personality at the door. There are going to be topics and discussions that will have heated debates. Please think before you post and re-read what you type before you post it. Keep your comments limited to the debate at hand and do not make this a personal issue between you and another member.

If you come across any violations to these guidelines or have any problems navigating the site, do not hesitate to let us know through the Jeffwithag.com Contact Form. We’ll be happy to address your concerns. Here at Jeffwithag.com we encourage everyone to participate in and enjoy the Community while at the same time adhering to these Guidelines:

Be Courteous!
Don’t attack others. While some healthy trash talk is fine, even encouraged, personal attacks are unacceptable. Challenge others’ points of view and opinions, but do so respectfully and thoughtfully … without insult and personal attack.

Be Cautious!
Think before you post or speak: Do you really want to put your address or telephone number on a public forum/post? We encourage you to keep personal information personal.

Be Ethical!
Jeffwithag.com’s website: resources, articles and discussions are based on basic, appropriate professional ethical behavior. Unethical behavior, spamming and other illegal activities are completely inappropriate and may result in the loss of membership.

No Cross-Posting
Please try not to post the same discussion more than once on a discussion forum or on many forums/posts. Duplicate discussions are frustrating and counterproductive for other members, especially for those whose time and energy is limited. Duplicate discussions may be deleted.

No Advertising – Spam
Do not place your advertisements through the forums, posts or comments. This will be considered SPAM and could result in the loss of your Jeffwithag.com community membership. Affiliate links are not allowed within the forums, posts or comments. If you wish to promote a particular program then promote the program not your own affiliate tie with it.

No Copyrighted Material
Information copyrighted or owned by any individual or entity other than the member should not be posted on the discussion forums or software libraries without the consent of the owner. If such an event occurs, the individual posting the information shall be held solely responsible. Jeffwithag.com shall not be held responsible for member-posted information that may violate copyright law. You cannot legally post entire articles or news without permission from the copyright holder. Even if you attribute the article correctly it’s still copyright infringement. Copyright law does not care if you make any money off of the work or not, what matters is if you hurt the potential income of the copyright holder. In this case you would be depriving them of ad revenue and it is illegal. Under Fair Use provisions you can legally post a small abstract of an article – or perhaps the opening paragraph. So if you want to post an article you should do this and include a link, or just post the link. The exception to this rule is press releases; press releases are meant for distribution and can be copied and distributed as much as you want. If you are not sure if you can copy something then always err on the side of caution and simply post a link to the material.

Jeffwithag.com Discretion
Jeffwithag.com reserves the right to organize, prohibit, or delete website content in order to 1) best serve the majority of our members or 2) satisfy our own personal, crazy whims. In addition, this can be done without explanation or notice. That said, we cannot ensure prompt removal of offending materials. We also reserve the right to remove your membership from you should you violate these guidelines, or even if we just feel like doing so.

Considering the real-time nature of this websites content, it is impossible for Jeffwithag.com to review all entries or confirm the validity of information posted.

Jeffwithag.com has the ability to remove objectionable messages and will make every effort to do so, within a reasonable time frame, if it is determined that removal is necessary.

You remain solely responsible for the content of your messages, and you agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Jeffwithag.com with respect to any claim based upon transmission of your message(s).
