Community guidelines

Welcome to our SEEBURGER Community! Our community guidelines serve as the foundation of our interactions here, ensuring a positive and constructive environment for all members. These guidelines promote respectful communication, encouraging users to engage in meaningful discussions while fostering a spirit of collaboration.

Your registration

You can read all public content of the community without being registered. If you wish to participate in a discussion, read or share your contributions, you need to register to receive a user account. You can register here. We will manually review your affiliation.

Be part of the discussion

Help us make this a great place for discussion by adding something positive to the discussion, however small.

One way to improve the discussion is by discovering ones that are already happening. Spend time browsing the topics here before replying and you’ll have a better chance of meeting others who share your interests.

The topics discussed here matter to us. Be respectful of the topics and the people discussing them, even if you disagree with some of what is being said. Use English for your contributions to ensure global understanding and enabling users from all over the world to understand and discuss your posts.

Let’s be respectful

You may wish to respond by disagreeing. Please remember to criticize ideas, not people. Please avoid:

  • Offensive, abusive, obscene or sexually explicit language
  • Posting copyrighted content. It is illegal to display copyrighted material without the written permission of the copyright owner.
  • Advertising your company or competitors of SEEBURGER

Your participation counts

To ask a new question, please start a new thread instead of posting to an existing one in order to avoid confusion. This way, your question can be answered precisely and owners of other posts are able to follow the suggestions and answers related to their question. Please read the category definitions to find a suitable category for your thread. Avoid cross-posting the same topic in multiple categories if you haven’t received an answer to your question.

Don’t divert a topic by changing it midstream to avoid unrelated comments and answers. If you want to give additional information, please reply in the same thread. Starting a new thread on the same topic, will make it difficult for moderators and other users to follow and help you.

This platform provides tools that enable the community to collectively identify the best contributions: bookmarks, likes, flags, replies, edits, watching, muting and so forth. Use these tools to improve your own experience, and everyone else’s, too.

Flag unaccaptable behavior or content

Moderators have special authority; they are responsible for this forum. But so are you.

If you see unacceptable behavior, please flag the post. If flags accrue, action will be taken, either automatically or by moderator intervention.

In order to keep our community a place according to our guidelines, moderators reserve the right to remove any content and any user account for any reason at any time. There is no preview or approval process of new posts. The moderators and site operators take no responsibility for any content posted by the community.

Community communication

Our moderators are constantly monitoring the community activities and are trying to answer every question within the agreed time frame. If you haven’t received an answer or you have a question regarding your user account or a flagged post, please contact us at community@seeburger.com.
