• If you choose to post about a specific clinical sitatuation, be very careful. Please disguise the clinical situation such that the person it is related to, if they read the post, would not even know it was about them. Keep in mind that the forum is not confidential as anyone can join it, as long as they are approved by me (Jason Luoma). I will try to keep it restricted to people who are professionals or in training to be a professional, but I can't guarantee that is the case.
• In general, its a good idea to not discuss actual cases on the forum, but keep it to the hypothetical and questions about ACT.

General Rules 

• The purpose of this forum is to have a place where a community of users can help each other in learning ACT. Please participate both by asking your questions and by providing answers. We are all learning together and have something to contribute.
• Post your comment/question to the most appropriate place. Any posts deemed to be in the wrong forum will be moved. Do not cross-post the same question to multiple places.
• Use your own words. If you wish to use the words of somebody else, quote them, citing the source. Plagiarism is unethical and is illegal in many countries.
• Choose an appropriate subject line. Try to summarise the problem briefly in the subject, and elaborate in the message itself. Repeat the subject in the body if it will make things clearer. Do not use all caps. An example of a bad subject would be "HELP ME". A good subject might be, "Question on exercise 3.2".
• Thank those who help you. Acknowledgement of a helpful suggestion not only is nice for those who helped you, it may also help others with a similar question. All those who have been helped on this forum are invited to help other users by responding to their questions.
• Keep all commentary civil, and be courteous at all times. Constructive criticism is welcome, but insults directed towards other users or the site admins will not be tolerated. Coarse/insulting language will not be tolerated.
• Any posts deemed to be self promotion, advertising, or spam can and will be removed. NO SPAM - NO ADVERTISING eg. Posting and making excessive, inappropriate and unnecessary references to your products and websites is self promotion.
• If you feel a post violates any of these rules, or you need to bring it to the attention of a moderator (move threads/close/split), please use the ‘report to modertor’ link to notify the moderators.
