To ensure that your membership here isn't terminated, please carefully read the points below. By posting anywhere on these forums, you agree to the simple guidelines below :
- Always be friendly and as helpful as possible. (If you ever feel that there could be a slight chance that your post might be viewed as rude, condescending, sarcastic or patronising, then please, don't do the post).
- Within your posts, signature and profile, please don't ask for or mention, in ANY way, shape or form, any websites that contain any of the following, OR containing links to ANY of the following:
- ANY other competing social networking websites, including ALL forums, message boards, blogs, communities, facebook, twitter, myspace, bebo, etc, etc. (If you ever see Sainsburys being advertised in Tescos, or NatWest advertised in Barclays, just let us know and we'll be happy to review this part of the agreement!!)
- Website designers, website developers, website hosting or search engine optimisation companies
- Other websites that contain weather forecasts. (Most people realise that it wouldn't make much sense to put so much time and effort into producing a fairly accurate weather forecast here that automatically updates every few hours, to then allow links to others!!)
- None of the above 3 points apply to the ads on the right hand side of these forums. To enquire about advertising on the right hand side of these forums, just email to Advertising@TorreviejaForums.com
- Email address's :
- Because of spammers, and to encourage maximum activity on the forums, email address's are never allowed in any posts, in any way, shape or form. Members getting involved with anything to do with email address's on the forums, in any way, shape or form, risk immediate, permanent deletion from the forums!
- If any more details and/or photos are needed in a post, please, don't mess around trying to communicate it by email (or via another website!!), or communicating email address's by phone. Either post the needed details/photos, or ask for the details/photos to be posted!! It makes much more sense to help as many members as possible, as quickly as possible, rather than by email, helping just one member at a time!!
- Asking for or offering an email address to be communicated in any way, is never permitted, (however, posting a contact telephone number IS always okay).
- Please note, going against ANY of this, or trying to be 'inventive' with posting an email address and/or mentioning any part of this page on the forums will usually result in your membership being terminated, so PLEASE be careful with what you post!
- Please keep things as simple as possible!! Forums are for exchanging information, and hopefully having some friendly banter as well, but, it certainly isn't for someone to collect email address's!!
- Anything to do with website making, website hosting, website maintenance etc, is not allowed.
- These forums enjoy a friendly, helpful, welcoming community, so it's important to remember that each member here is accountable for their own posts. Please take care in how you express your comments, remember that your intended tone of voice can sometimes be lost in written communication, so if you want something to be understood in a certain way, it may help to provide an obvious indicator, like a smilie, to avoid any possible misinterpretation.
- You agree not to post anything abusive, obscene, racist, libellous, slanderous, threatening or any other material that may violate any laws. Doing so, may lead to your membership being immediately and permanently terminated, with possible notification to your internet service provider as well. The admin team on these forums have the right to delete, edit, move or close any post or topic at any time as they see fit.
- Posts that are negatively discussing how these forums are conducted are always deleted. Any problems with any part of the forums, just email to the forums team, using the email address on the contact page here. Please remember, your emails are always welcome, but, the exception to this, is if your email is in connection with you ignoring or questioning any of the simple guidelines on this page!
- There's copyright issues with anyone copying text and/or images from these forums and any posts discussing, in any way, the measures taken here to prevent this problem are deleted.
- When a member asks a question and you've managed to find the answer on Google, Yahoo or any other search engine, just post the answer, mentioning how you found the answer isn't important.
- Asking and answering questions - when asking a question and another member has answered that question, please take the time to thank them, it's only common politeness. However, when answering a question, and you've not received a thanks, please remember that there could be many reasons why the person asking the question hasn't thanked you, they may be on holiday, simply forgot, problems with their computer, etc, etc, so please don't get upset if the person hasn't thanked you for answering their question. Just answer the questions where you can, because it always feels good to help others!
- All posts are to be in English, all posts in other languages will be deleted. The exception to this, is when posts are made in Spanish for translation purposes, which are always allowed.
- Any member mentioning on the forums any of the items on this page, will usually lead to their membership being terminated.
- Above all, always be friendly and as helpful as possible.
