Welcome to the NA forums of RXmuscle. This forum is provided as a free service to embody a community of members sharing their processes from an addiction through recovery. Your contribution is a privilege, and the staff reserves the right to reject, edit or delete posts at any time. We may also revoke member privileges in these forums at our sole discretion. These forums are the property of RXmuscle.com who reserve the right to revision of guidelines without prior notice.
Though we may request you practice tact and discretion in approaching the sensitive matters that are subject to discussion in these forums, we protect freedom of speech. These forums are strictly regulated and if you find that disturbing, you may wish to reconsider participation. RXmuscle provides adequate entertainment in several other forums on a variety of topics, should you reconsider. Our intent is to maintain civil dialogue in this forum.
As moderator of these forums, I reserve the right to reject posts based on their interpretation of these guidelines. The infringing member may be warned, suspended, subjected to post moderation or have his/her posting privileges in the NA forums permanently revoked, as deemed by staff discretion. Repetitive violation or disregard of any warnings may result in an immediate ban.
It is our intent to protect the privacy of those who wish to share in these forums while maintaining online anonymity.
General Forum Principles
Tolerance: Please respect the rights of others to hold beliefs and perspectives, which differ from yours. Healthy, vigorous debate will further our goals, but only when guided by the tolerance that springs from mutual embrace of mission.
Intellectual Freedom: Embrace diversity of practice. It is impossible to understand an action without first understanding the actor and their environment. Know that varied environments call for varied response. Your way may not be the best way.
Freedom of Speech: We resist censorship in favor of free speech. Within these forums, we support the broadest range of perspectives and expression, for it is the unification of diversity to cause that gives strength to this community.
Responsible Behavior: Your contribution here carries a responsibility. Ours is a mission of mind and perspective, and consequently, attention is our most precious resource.
NA Forums Violations
Links to informational, inspirational, and educational sites not related to products or services are permitted when they are posted by someone without any "vested interest" AND whose purpose is NOT to solicit, advertise, promote, fundraise, etc. This includes links to outside agendas that are outside the scope of our main purpose, which is recovery from addicitions and recovery for friends and family members.
No posts of an overtly political or religious nature OR posts promoting advocacy of particular personal, legal, religious, or political causes. Please reserve such discussions for the appropriate forums. The NA forums are intended for offering mutual personal support related to recovery from addiction or recovery for family and friends. This is our primary purpose. Debating controversial subjects should be taken elsewhere.
Please not NOT use the forums to convert others. Do not flame anyone's person, religious beliefs, race, national background, sexual orientation, or recovery program/method.
It is inappropriate to promote the use of alcohol or drugs in our addiction recovery forums. Any questions pertaining to, or subtle hints at how to use or where to buy illegal drugs will result in an autmoatic ban. Zero tolerance on this matter.
Any personal information about sharing members that would identify them outside these forums, that they themsleves have not otherwise made public online, is a breach of privacy. Any and all discussions in these forums are private.
If you wish to protect your security and identity, then refrain from using your real name as handle or your picture as avatar.
No Flaming ~ Posting of any content with the intention of disrupting the forum or inflaming members-be it on someone's person, religious beliefs, race, national background, sexual orientation, or recovery program. Do not Harass, threaten, embarrass or cause distress or discomfort upon another Forum participant.
Respect other members of these forums and don’t belittle, make fun off, or insult another member. Decisions about health and recovery are highly personal, individual choices. Flaming and insults, will not be tolerated.
Medical Advice ~ Please do not give medical advice, medication advice, or psychiatric advice. Please direct all medical concerns to Dr.Nathan under the designated Q&A thread. If you are a medical professional, please be advised that these forums are for peer support only. If you need Detox, consult with a physician immediately. Self-detox can be dangerous and life threatening.
Do not disrespect forum leaders, moderators, super moderators, and Admins. Be respectful of these members who volunteer to dedicate hours of their day to ensure that you are comfortable and rules are enforced.
If you feel that a decision has been made arbitrarily, you may contact an Administrator privately for clarification. Do not publicly denounce the actions of a staff member.
Please do NOT post suicide notes, or anything which could sound like you might kill or seriously harm yourself!
This can be incredibly damaging to members and guests.
If you DO feel suicidal, please contact a real life counselor or support helpline.
Respect,
SS
