A reminder of the Board Moderation Policy for our newer members.

[hr]

Welcome!

Jungle Drums is, as the tag-line says, for pretty much anything that you want to put in it, but so that everyone can use and enjoy the board, please take note of the following:

OpSec and PerSec: The security of our loved ones is at the forefront of our minds. Please refrain from posting operationally and personally sensitive information, including the use of real names and former postings of long-lost friends. The cunning use of asterisks to make J*hn Sm*th into a code only breakable by Bletchley Park types isn't acceptable either! Any posts deemed to breach OpSec and/or PerSec will be edited or removed without warning.

Personal Attacks: Banter and wind-ups are all part of service life - it would be very boring without it! - but personal "issues" should be taken off-line. In addition, any post deemed to be libelous will be edited or removed.

Swearing and 'txt spk': This site is for use by children and adults alike thus anything other than mild swearing will not be tolerated. Ref 'txt spk' it hurts my eyes and brain to read and decipher, so please don't use it! Similarly bold text and CAPITAL LETTERS TEXT is construed as shouting, so please don't!

If you have any queries regarding this moderation policy, please PM me.

As a final note, none of us can help but notice the high media interest in the Armed Forces these days. Please think before you post - our sister site ARRSE is quite often quoted by journalists, thus before long I expect Rear Party will be scoured for information. We are very proud of our serving family members and friends and don't like it when their honour and the fine reputations of the vast majority are besmirched, thus we have a duty not to let them down by posting things that perhaps we oughtn't!

Thanks for reading - now get posting!
