Welcome to the Shire Noticeboard.
Shire Publications offers non-fiction paperbacks on a wide range of
subjects, reflecting the interests of people everywhere, however
unusual or obscure their passions and we see our journal as a place for
interested people to come together and talk about anything and
everything to do Shire. We love it and we know you do too.
Guidelines
Our aim is to have
discussions that are both thought-provoking and civil. We want you to
comment, we want you to have your say. However, as much as we want to
keep it a relaxed and open environment, we feel we should probably make
you aware of a few rules. They apply to both users who post topics and commentors
alike.
-
No bigotry
-
No vulgarity
-
No advocating violence or flagrantly immoral conduct
-
No pornography or links thereto
-
No personal attacks. It's not clever.
-
Nothing that would cause offence to most reasonable people
-
No commercial messages
-
No spam
Comments
We invite readers to
write comments about the Noticeboard posts and the comments of others. Try to
keep your comments short and on the topic of the thread. We don't have
a formal word limit for comments, but if something is simply far too
long we may delete it. Of course, if you write a work of genius, we'll
allow it, but in general please aim for concise.
Comments are “moderated,” which means yours won't
appear immediately after you submit it; it'll be published after a blog
administrator has read it and decided it's okay. If days pass and you
haven't seen your comment appear, we probably found something about it
objectionable and deleted it.
If you ever think we've failed to live up to this
ourselves—say, we've posted a comment you think is in poor taste,
please let us know (Email us).
We hope you enjoy the Noticeboard, and thank you for visiting. Come back again soon
