Guidance on using Any Answers

Any Answers

What is this area for?

Any Answers is a place for members to post direct questions for example ‘How do you do X?’  All members are free to respond to the question(s) appropriately and relevantly, and answers should not include self-promotional content which is not relevant to the original post.

Any Answers is not a place to advertise or promote your own services and do not post questions such as ‘What do you think of my company/website?’

Guidance on posting within the area

We expect members to behave appropriately and sensitively at all times and never to post comments which are knowingly offensive. 

Bad language will not be tolerated at all!  If you can’t make a point without swearing, then forget about it, back away.

Deliberately inflammatory comments about sex, age, race, religion or politics, or any other derogatory or personal attacks will not be tolerated, and any attempts by members to deliberately provoke another member on these grounds will result in a temporary ban and the original thread being removed to allow TrainingZone.co.uk time to investigate the nature and context of the comment(s). 

Members who post information about their own company/business in Any Answers unnecessarily will be asked to desist. 

Repeat offenders of any of the above negative conduct will incur a temporary ban on their access to TrainingZone.co.uk.  Members who are welcomed back after a temporary ban will be asked to post within the guidelines as laid out by TrainingZone.co.uk.  Failure to do so will result in a permanent ban. 

We are willing to review permanent bans after a period of no less than six months for less serious offences, for example bad language or comments which the member feels were wrongly interpreted at the time of the original post.  Each case for review will be assessed individually and no precedence will apply.
