FREEVIBE MESSAGE BOARD POLICY

If you are in middle school or high school, this site is for you! If you are an adult, there are so many places to discuss the important issues surrounding drug use and abuse on the Internet - leave these boards for actual teens.

Freevibe will put up all posts that do not conflict with the guidelines below. All posts are from real teens who have real issues that they want to discuss. The only reason your post wouldn't go up is if:
  • You blatantly promote the use of substances that are illegal or unhealthy for minors.
  • You include crude or obscene language-if you can't say it on MTV or UPN or FOX, you shouldn't say it here. Asterisks may be substituted for profanities in otherwise good posts.
  • Your post contains information that has nothing to do with the topics being discussed--or which doesn't make sense at all.
  • You promote, suggest violence or slander any social group.
  • Your post is clearly written by someone beyond Freevibe's age group.
  • Your post contains e-mail, phone or other contact information. These may be replaced with asterisks.


Note:
If there is a post that doesn't fit within these guidelines, it is up to the moderator to use his or her best judgment based on their training.

RUMORS

Many messages contain rumors and other misleading info. In these cases, the Freevibe board moderator will post the message but also add our two cents with:
  • Facts taken directly from the "Lowdown" area, with the URL provided.
  • Information taken directly from the National Institute on Drug Abuse or another reliable source, with either a specific acknowledgement or the URL provided.
  • We will always sign our posts "Freevibe", so you'll know it's from the moderator.


Messages will be kept on the message board for 60 days.

Post away!
