Community Guidelines

Welcome Statement And Purpose

Welcome to The 50 Million Pound Challenge. The following guidelines outline both acceptable and unacceptable behaviors within The 50 Million Pound Challenge website. We reserve the right to change these guidelines at any time. To understand how 50MillionPounds.com (including the Community section) is governed from a legal perspective, please see the website Terms & Conditions.

The 50 Million Pound Challenge Community brings together people who want to live a healthier lifestyle and allows them to share common experiences as well as learn how to get the most out of the program.

Where appropriate, The 50 Million Pound Challenge Community monitors may answer questions and assist users; however the Community forums are not intended for site support requests. To insure a direct response to an issue or question you are having, please submit your question to us via the Contact Us form.

Getting Started

We encourage new members to browse the Community before making their first post to familiarize themselves with the various categories of forums and the different areas of the Community where they can contribute. Visit the “About the Community” page for more information.

To begin posting messages, users must be registered members of The 50 Million Pound Challenge and logged into their account.

Posting and Commenting

We are a self-monitored Community. Members have the opportunity to post content, and also are responsible for reporting offensive or inappropriate content. The 50 Million Pound Challenge monitors do not pre-screen or review comments before posting. However, we reserve the right to remove any content that violates these guidelines or the website Terms & Conditions. Community monitors will review any content reported as inappropriate and determine whether it should be removed from the site, and may or may not give a reason or explanation for the removal of content. Occasionally monitors may choose to communicate privately with members (via email) about their posts.

Examples of actions/posts that will be removed and may incur disciplinary action

  • Deliberately misquoting others
  • Using The 50 Million Pound Challenge Community for commercial purposes, including advertising, promotion, junk mail or 'spamming'
  • Personal attacks or threats on other members, groups, sponsors, or suppliers of The 50 Million Pound Challenge
  • Posting, sending or linking to content that is harmful, threatening, unlawful, defamatory, infringing, abusive, inflammatory, harassing, vulgar, obscene, offensive fraudulent, invasive of privacy or publicity rights, hateful, or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable

The 50 Million Pound Challenge reserves the right to restrict user access or remove users from the Community for violating these guidelines.

Monitors and sponsors may contribute to discussions just as members do and are held to the same standards and Community guidelines as members.

Members are encouraged to stay on topic, and should be aware that monitors may move posts to other categories or close threads that have become inactive.
