Welcome to the Model Engineering Forum

Welcome to the Model Engineering Forum!

We hope you find the forum usefull and become a part of our community. Should you have any problems with any areas of the forum please contact us (The Admin Team). There is also a help button on the top menu bar that should help answer a lot of your questions. We will be adding features on a constant basis. With the forum your email and personal information are never shared or made public unless you choose to do so.
In order for your account to become fully active you need to make 3 posts. We always reccomend the first is an introduction to the forum telling us a little about your interests in the areas of model engineering, and the rest is up to you. We chose to do this in order to prevent spiders and those trying to siphon info on members. On the third post your membership becomes fully featured.

Thanks!
M.E. Admin.

A couple of quick guide lines:

1. Our purpose is to share, help and support others.
2. Always display a positive, friendly attitude
3. Be respectful of others' opinions
4. Allow your fellow members to voice their opinions
5. DO NOT deliberately start arguments. Debates are great, as long as they remain respectful!
6. Always try to "give" back to our community. For each time you find help or answers here at  Model Engineering Forum, try to help someone else out in return. You may find that what goes around comes around...
7. Give people a little time to respond to your requests. There's a lot going on in these forums and it may take a little time for people to notice and respond to your request. Please be patient.
8. DO NOT just make a negative statement and leave the person hanging out to dry. Although you may consider yourself to be an "expert" now, try to remember that we were all new and learning once upon a time. Take it easy on your fellow members!
9. Do NOT make threats or implied threats towards other members -- even if you think it's fun.

Please Do Observe the following:
  • DO NOT Make Inappropriate or Offensive Posts - including threats, harrassment, swearing, prejudice, slander or deliberate insults/name-calling, or other negative remarks about Model Engineering Forum / The RustyBolt, its moderators and administrators, or your fellow members. Even if this is just your own personal opinion, RESPECT YOUR FELLOW MEMBERS
  • Do NOT drag another member's personal site into a forum discussion unless the discussion directly involves that site OR if the member brings his or her own site into the discussion first. There's no point in ruining a good debate by accidentally (or intentionally) offending someone with a personal comment.
  • The Model Engineerig Forum believes in integrity and respects what other forums have to offer. Because we realize members of Model Engineering Forum may also be members of other forums, do not try to degrade or discredit other forums, their administrators and moderators, or their members. This includes slander and other offensive comments.
  • DO NOT POST PORN or adult content. This also inludes sites promoting activities such as drug abuse, gambling and links to sites containing such content.

Forum Abuse Policy:
  • 1st Offense - A polite Private Message from a Moderator pointing out the Forum Rules, in addition to the editing or deletion of the post
  • 2nd Offense - Public warning on the message board plus deletion of post
  • 3rd Offense - Moderators will discuss and possibly delete the user from the WebProWorld forum
Depending on the situation, Admin may bypass any and all of these steps and take whatever action is deemed appropriate.

Private Message and Email Abuse Policy:

DO NOT use The Model Engineering Forum as a basis for spamming or scamming our members.
We take PM/email abuse very seriously, and it will result in the immediate removal of your membership and ban of your IP address, without warning.

Even though this is an international forum, please make sure that your posts are written in English.
