Greetings, Ghost Fans!

Welcome to the DoomBuggies.com Message Board!

Speaking on behalf of the DoomBuggies.com moderating staff, I want to thank you all for making this among the most informative and entertaining Disney-related message boards on the Internet.

Registration is required to post messages to the message board. Registration is free, of course, and will not make your personal information known to anyone, nor will it require you to open your email address up to spam. What it will do is make it a little easier for the moderating team to keep the message board spam- and troll-free, allowing all of us to have a more enjoyable experience as we share our fondness for the creative effort Walt Disney put into the amazing Haunted Mansion attractions.

So please register with EZboard if you haven't already, and thank you for your continued support of DoomBuggies.com.

As a registered message board member, we hope you enjoy your stay with this fun-loving collection of happy haunts as you join the discussion about Disney's classic Haunted Mansion attractions (and Disneyland Paris' version, called Phantom Manor.) We encourage your participation and hope you enjoy the collected expertise of hundreds of fans and experts on the topic of Disney's darks rides and theme parks.

Please note that DoomBuggies.com also offers chat. Feel free to join the discussion there as well!

I am Chef Mayhem, webmaster of DoomBuggies.com and the admin for this message board. I welcome you to the community, and hope you find it to be a welcoming destination on the web. To that end, please familiarize yourself with the following terms and guidelines, which will aid you in becoming our next happy haunt and message board participant:

1. Membership is required. When you become a member of the DoomBuggies.com message board, you may receive special notices that may be sent to the membership roster only (if you provide a valid email address). We will not spam you, and you will only receive notices regarding the DoomBuggies.com website and community.

2. Please follow standard rules of netiquette when using the DoomBuggies.com message board. Please visit this link to learn more about appropriate rules for communication on the Internet. A few simple guidelines are:

a. Do not post unrelated advertising on this message board. Spamming the board or posting advertisements unrelated to the topics being discussed is cause for removal of your membership.

b. Do not "troll," or post comments for the specific purpose of arousing anger or ill will on the message board. Controversial commentary is okay, as long as the discussion remains civil.

c. Do not use inflammatory language, which could be considered demeaning to one's race, ethnicity, religion, sexual preference, physical disability, or gender.

d. Do not use profanity or obscenities. This website is a popular link from many Disney-related destinations, and is frequently visited by minors. For this reason, off-the-shelf profanity filters have been activated on both this board and the chat software. Please do not try to intentionally override the filters with spacing or misspelling. It is expected that the members of this community have the communication skills to express their feelings, both positive and negative, without using profanity.

e. Do not direct profanity, obscenities, threats, or violence directly at another person or group. This is cause for immediate removal of your membership.

f. Do not post any personal contact information on this board, with the exception of your own email address. Under no circumstances may you post another user's email address, geographical location, real name, or other identifying information.

3. Realize that the membership of this board is quite varied. We have very active participants that range in age from early teens through retirement. Keep in mind that the responses you are reading from members can only be as informed as their life experience allows. Tolerance is a useful asset in this type of community.

4. Do not use a screen name or anonymous message to represent yourself as someone that you are not. In particular, keep the following two guidelines in mind:

a. Do not claim to be another registered user, or a person that other board users may recognize; and

b. Do not employ "sock puppets" (that is, using one identity to agree with or respond to something that you posted to the board using a different identity.)

5. Realize that trolls will emerge from time to time. It is a natural part of existence on the Internet. The best way to encourage them to leave the board is to ignore their posts, since the only reason an individual would post "trolling" comments is to receive recognition for their efforts.

6. If you are selling, trading, or distributing merchandise, be sure to follow the regulations regarding such transactions found elsewhere in this forum. Notably, unauthorized distribution of any Disney media or intellectual property is prohibited, except in the case of secondary market sales of official or licensed Disney merchandise.

7. Links To Copyrighted Material
Any use of the Doombuggies messageboard or other Doombuggies services that allows or assists in the unauthorized distribution of copyrighted material is not allowed. Any links that allow the sharing of such intellectual properties either intentionally or unintentionally may be deleted without notice.

8. Private Messaging/Chat

This message board also incorporates chat and private messaging functions. All of the rules above apply to public chat sessions. And under no circumstances may any member use the private messaging function of this board to harass another member.

9. Doombuggies Staff

Administrators and Moderators have been chosen to oversee the forums. The staff has the authority to delete, lock, or edit posts as needed, based on their interpretation of the board guidelines. Administrators and Moderators act with the full authority of the ezOP, and their decisions on all matters are final.

Questions or concerns?

In an effort to keep the community as carefree and friendly as possible, the administrators and moderators of the DoomBuggies.com message board would like to invite your suggestions and ideas about how we may balance our level of administrative involvement to maximize everyone's enjoyment.

Please feel free to write to the DoomBuggies.com message board staff at doombuggies.admin@gmail.com, and we will address your suggestion as quickly as possible with the common goal of improving the quality of life here in the DoomBuggies.com community.

Thank you for joining us, and we hope you enjoy your time with us.
