Requirements of all forum users

Hi all,
Due to the scrutiny we are receiving from outside sources we have had to suspend any talk of anything gambling related, most importantly any mention of online poker sites.
There are many reasons for this, but it basically boils down that it can be construed as NPL itself promoting or seen to be promoting gambling.
I am sorry for any inconvenience in this matter but we are hoping to change the views of these outside sources to NPL been more of a preparation and educational tool for those looking to take up online poker or gambling.
As such all mention of gambling and online sites will now be edited or removed, I will give all contributors one week to change previous posts as the see fit before we begin this mass clean up process.
On another note it seems that some staff and players, myself included, have bought some negative aspects to this forum and for that I apologize. We are creating a staff code of conduct for this forum and if any staff, myself include, break these rules they will be disciplined.
But please understand the same will apply for players on this site no direct attacks against staff or other players, no derogatory comments and most of all no mentioning of our competitors or their affiliates in a good light We all like the debates and arguments and points of views, it just seems recently a lot of us are easy to fire up.
This attitude, for the minority I am speaking to, must and will change.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and I am sorry for this inconvenience and asking for your patience in this matter.

Well that sucks. Hopefully things change in the future.

Regarding the staff code of conduct, will they be posted here, for everyone to see? May I suggest the creation of a Staff Forum - separate to this one - where Staff can talk about their issues at their leisure. Give you guys some freedom you deserve.

Staff forum is already up and running. And no the staff code of conduct will not be posted for general public viewing.
The staff feel restricted enough as is and do not need the customers, and the small minority of trouble makers, to take advantage of this code and to know where the boundaries are and to push TD's into a position where they will do something non retractable.

Ok, that's fair. I know that if anyone were to cross the line, you'd pull them up anyway.

Does this mean the end of the Heads Up League? I was just about to join, too.

Headsup games are still going. Odds are that we'll continue on with Des' work and run another one at this ones conclussion.
