Use of CARM's name in non-CARM discussion areas

Lately, because CARM is so large and because there are thousands of people who post on the discussion boards, different people have asked about using the CARM name in room titles of various discussion forums, award sites, picture sites, etc., that are not authored by CARM.  Since there are so many different people with differing ideas, using the CARM name therefore takes on a potential representative aspect.  Therefore, I offer these guidelines for usage of the CARM name.

  1. State clearly that the room/website, etc., does not officially represent CARM and that the opinions expressed are those of the authors of the room/website, and not of CARM.
  2. When having dialogues, simply be polite and respectful.
  3. Let us know that you are referencing the CARM name, where, when, etc., so we may check it out.
