Simply Liason Membership Rules


The rules here for good board citizenship are few and simple.

This board was designed to bring all Liason fans together to celebrate our favorite couple.  The Good, The Bad and the Ugly.  The Romantic and the Stupid Stuff.  The Laughter and the Tears.

This board and our couple have been around a long time and things change. Characters do things we don’t like, actors leave the show. But the one thing that has not changed is the one thing that unites us all- our love for all things Liason.

There are a lot of people here and it should be understood that our opinions EVEN on our favorite couple vary and change over time.

1)    We EXPECT all members to respect each other.

To clarify for members, by definition bashing is considered "a harsh, gratuitous, prejudicial attack on a person, group or subject."  

ANY BASHING of members and/or other fan boards WILL NOT BE TOLERATED!


No bashing of real people. This includes insulting nicknames, name calling and/or personal attacks towards any real life person.  

A general rule of thumb is if you wouldn’t say it about/to Becky, don’t say it about/to anyone else.

Freedom of speech does not mean freedom from responsible speech. With that, we expect that all members of Simply Liason will behave in a way that is respectful and responsible. Insults, name calling, abusive speech, attacks and/or threatening behavior towards another member/poster will not be tolerated.




2)     Respect the actor's privacy.



You don’t like the character – THAT’S FINE – Do NOT bash the actor or actress!


Bashing the actor or actress will open our site up to a possible Defamation Law Suit.  What is Defamation? Defamation can be categorized as Libel, which is the false or malicious claims that may harm someone's reputation. If false, malicious statements that are published in mainstream media (i.e. on the internet, in a magazine, etc.) are then classified as "libel".




3)    Keep it clean!  No blue language!

Using foul language in the public topics and threads WILL NOT BE TOLERATED!

Since this is a public board and we have people of all ages on here, the "Forbidden Four", also known as %%%+, @!@+$, %$*%, and @@+% are NOT allowed.  The Board Admins and Mods WILL REMOVE any post that includes these words.* Also, the staff has the power to remove any graphics containing these words.


5) If you feel a fellow member has posted something that violates the rules or deserves staff attention, PLEASE do not attempt to “correct” the poster. Please contact a staff member so we can address the potential issue.



So, Play Nice.
