Changes to rules
No major changes to be reported from the list by Kuzz, mostly clarifications, especially as the status of the site has evolved since.


 * Swearing: as a few users go above and beyond what could be considered "within limits", causing a knock-on effect, leading more people to swear. Most everything that one could wish to say can be done without being offensive and is especially unfavourable when having a public rant about the game, which no-one on the site can help with.


 * Real-life information (meaning information that cannot be obtained from RR3) should be detailed in the first section of a Car or Manufacturer page only.


 * As such, barring any new content, manufacturer and car navboxes are accurate and do not need to be changed. The Base PR stats for each car is also accurate and does not need to change. Therefore, any table page detailing cars with their base stats only are accurate.
