RULES

1. Commercial Solicitations for Business: The Heartland Owners Forum exists primarily for member-to-member communications so members may share with and learn from each other. Commercial enterprises and/or their representatives are allowed as members to monitor the activity of Heartland product owners and prospects, but are not allowed to solicit business within the forum.

2. No Member Solicitations for Business: Members and users may not use the Heartland Owners Forum to advertise commercial or personal business endeavors. This includes direct posts, commercial URLs in your profile or signature, or active links to other sites on the Internet. An endorsement/opinion of a product, service or company that you have firsthand experience with or knowledge of is allowed if kept brief and to the point. You may include URLs or active links to commercial sites for the purpose of expanding on comments or providing additional information as part of regular forum interactions

3. No Spamming: It’s as simple as that - Spamming, in any form, is strictly forbidden

4. Respect Use of “Items for Sale Forum”: The “Items for Sale” forum is for ”member/user-to-member/user” only. Dealers and other commercial endeavors may not post any product or service here. Members may use the “Items for Sale” forum to advertise their Heartland RV or RV related items for sale. We do not allow the advertising of non-Heartland brands of RVs. Once posted, all ads will be closed by a Moderator so that no commentary will be placed in the ads by other readers. All ads will be moved to the “Items Sold” forum not later than one year after posting.

5. Follow Forum Posting Protocol: To ensure a prompt and quality response to your question or comment, you must post it to the proper forum. “Flaming” or otherwise “bashing” of other forum members, this forum, Heartland RVs, LLC or its suppliers is strictly forbidden. Professional conduct is a primary requirement for participation on the Heartland Owners Forum. Posts may be moved without notice, if we feel it will better serve you and/or the interest of the community. Duplicate posts in the same or different forum will be deleted without notice.

6. Keep Forum Content Clean: The use of any profanity is not allowed. The combination of an 'Integrated Watchdog' and Forum Moderators will monitor posts and attempt to expunge objectionable language. Posts may be edited or deleted at the sole discretion of the Moderators or Administrators.

7. No Campaigns: We do not allow the use of the forum for your campaigns. Examples are campaigns against Heartland, a Heartland Dealer or a Heartland Service Center. Campaigns of this nature will be deemed as you using a Heartland owned asset (this forum) against Heartland or its business associates.

8. No Political, Religious or Gender Related Posting: This is a family friendly forum so postings related to your political, religious or sexuality opinions or beliefs are not allowed as to not offend others.

9. Posting of Legal Notices, Proceedings or Considerations Prohibited: Posts are not allowed in which a private, local, state or Federal consumer action board and/or legal counsel is, has or will be involved. This includes posts related to future, ongoing or past lawsuits, proceedings, considerations or other legal actions.

11. Valid Email Address Required: A valid email address is required for forum registration. If your email address changes later, you must update your profile to include your valid email address. In your profile, you may elect to keep your email address private and even decline to receive emails from the administrator. If however, your email address is determined to be invalid or the forum receives email bounces from your email provider, you risk having your membership canceled.
