SaabWorld Terms of Service
1) Be polite and respect your fellow SaabWorld members and visitors
There is no need for cursing, flaming, racism, personal attacks or other disrespectful behavior. Discussions about controversial topics (weapons, politics and so on) are allowed but please keep them informative and fair for everybody.
2) Do not spam
Commercial advertising or promotion of commercial services is not allowed in the forums. Selling of Saab vehicles, Saab parts or other Saab-related items by businesses is allowed in the Marketplace. SaabWorld reserves the right to remove any posts for any reason.
3) Don't get us in trouble
Don't post copyrighted materials or do other things that will obviously lead to legal trouble.
4) Posting etiquette
A well-written post is easy to understand and will get the attention of others. Thread titles should be a clear summary of the subject you are posting about. It is important to stay on or close to the topic of the thread you are posting in for all boards except the Clubhouse. Unrelated, off-topic posts may be deleted or moved to a new thread.
5) Keep the place nice
This forum is not the place for obscene, vulgar, pejorative, hateful, threatening or sexually-oriented content, excessive swearing, or other immature behavior and bad content. SaabWorld is a family and work friendly place so please be considerate to others. The site does not filter bad words so we rely on everybody to keep it clean. This includes actual words and intent (like substituting characters or abbreviations).
6) Links to other sites
Please do not use links to other forums, blog, news or other Saab sites solely for promoting the site or directing traffic away from SaabWorld. Links to commercial businesses are allowed by second-party individuals and must be in the context of the thread/post.
7) The Final Word
The owners and moderators of SaabWorld reserve the right to remove, edit, move or close any content item for any reason they deem appropriate in accordance to their best judgment. They will attempt to keep all objectionable messages off this site but it is impossible for us to review all messages. All messages express the views of the author, and the owners of SaabWorld will not be held responsible for the content of any message.
8) Use at your own risk
Car repair involves safety precautions, technical expertise and experience. While there is an effort to present accurate information, there is the possibility of incomplete or incorrect information. SaabWorld, moderators, and contributors cannot assume liability for any damage or injury incurred for using any information on this website. Information in tutorials and posts is intended to inform but those attempting repairs should exercise appropriate judgment, observe industry safety precautions and seek expert consultation, where appropriate.
9) Copyright and content on SaabWorld
All original content on the site is property of the authors. No content may be used without written consent from the author/SW member. Edits and deletions in the forum may be done within 30 days. After this time, content becomes part of SW indefinitely and can not be changed or removed.
Accounts and content
A member can request to have their account deleted from the site. All personal information like email address and profile information will be removed but all content posted by that member remains on the site. Removing content will disrupt the flow of many threads and the integrity of the site.
Content on SaabWorld
SaabWorld may use any content in the forums, garage, classifieds and blogs for promotional purposes (i.e. promote to the front page, post on Twitter/Facebook etc). Content from other websites may not be directly copied to SaabWorld, unless you are the author of such material. Excerpts of or quotes from external content should always identify the source. Original images with a SaabWorld watermark may be used on other websites but may not be altered in any way.
SaabWorld content on other blogs and news websites
You may only copy brief excerpts of any content and properly credit SaabWorld as your source. Translation of content for a limited number of articles in other languages than English is allowed but SaabWorld must be identified as the source, including a link to the original site content.
Content hosted on other websites
In order to protect content on SW for many years to come, we reserve the right to copy image and other files from other websites if they are linked in your posts and you own the rights to these pictures or files. The reason for this is many pictures on free hosting accounts expire after a while or members move on and pictures are lost forever. Hosting these pictures and other files on SaabWorld will assure they are available forever.
