- Discriminatory comments about gender, age, race, religion, sexual preference, physical or mental disability, or any other derogatory or personal attacks will not be tolerated, and any attempts by members to provoke another member on these grounds will result in a temporary ban and the comment being removed.
- Stay on topic. Off-topic comments will be deleted.
- Consider the tone of your postings when you write them and understand that interpretation of the written word can be subjective. You could offend someone without meaning to if they misinterpret your tone. Be mindful of this before you click ‘submit’.

Moderation:
We will deem, at our sole discretion, if a comment or posting violates our community guidelines and therefore needs to be edited or removed from the site.
Sometimes it may be necessary to remove an entire thread or conversation. We will only do this in the most extreme cases in order to preserve the flow of conversation on the site.
Members who continue to violate community guidelines will incur a temporary ban on their ability to contribute or comment on The Rebel Party Band. Members who are welcomed back after a temporary ban will be expected to post within the guidelines as stated here. Failure to do so will result in a permanent ban.
We are willing, but under no obligation, to review permanent bans after six months. Each case will be assessed individually and no precedence will apply.
If you feel that a comment violates our Terms of Use or these Community Guidelines you can let us know at editor[at]therebelpartyband.com. We will review any offensive or inflammatory posts within two working days of a post being reported.
We promise to respond to member queries and requests reasonably and responsibly but ask that our members allow us reasonable time to deal with each request – some things may take us longer to investigate.
