Website / Forums Terms and Conditions

Any organised gathering must have rules and conventions if it is to operate efficiently, and the ITPP Ltd Website / Forums are no exception. On the whole we function with a minimum of red tape, and we want our visitors to feel welcome and able to express themselves in their own way. We are a friendly website however, and there are inevitably some do's and don'ts that must be observed if we are to get along together. Regular users will be familiar with much of what follows. Newcomers, who may be unfamiliar with Website / Forum procedures, should find it useful. It's your website, we hope you'll enjoy your time here. You must be over 16 years of age to register to use the website.

Disclaimer

The website is populated by fellow local residents and business people, and if you act upon any advice you are given you do so entirely at your own risk. The opinions expressed by registered users and the Editor(s) / Moderator(s) are not necessarily those of  ITPP LTD., and the company will not be liable for the consequences of following advice given in this website by other registered users.

Terminology

Plain English is the order of the day, but there are some words that you will see being used regularly.

    * Thread - the word used to describe a topic. A thread may be started by any member to advertise a business or event or comment.

    * Item / Post - a message that is 'posted' to by anyone who wishes to contribute. When you click on a thread title it will open to reveal all the messages that have been posted by other members. You can add your own comments.

    * Moderator - someone who watches the website for inappropriate thread content. We monitor Website / Forum activity, and the Website / Forum editor(s) / moderators will sometimes remove threads or posts if he/ she believe them to be inappropriate in nature. If you are unhappy about a particular item, or if you want to contact us privately you can do so at any time by using the contact form.. Type your message and click the 'Send message' button; we'll contact you as soon as possible.

 
Best practice

We have evolved a system of day to day conduct which we believe helps the Website / Forum to function smoothly, and we look to our members to abide by the system whenever possible. We are a community, and we expect our members to respect our code of conduct.

    * Personal email addresses - please do not include your email address when posting an event. Personal privacy is something that once compromised is difficult to regain, and posting an address in a web Website / Forum is akin to advertising it on TV - it can be read (and used) by thousands of strangers. You are safe to post your email address in a business listing.

    * Offensive comment - Website / Forum discussions can sometimes become heated. They often take place more or less in real time, and it can be tempting to respond offensively in the heat of the moment. Personal abuse directed at another Website / Forum member is totally unacceptable, and such posts will be removed without warning. Incidents may result in a Website / Forum member's registration being invalidated permanently and legal action or police action being taken.

    * Thread titles - Please try to give your thread a meaningful title - one which will indicate its subject matter to other Website / Forum users. A thread entitled "Aaaargghhhh!!!!! will irritate other users, and will be less likely to attract the right response.

    * Inform - when posting your thread please try to provide as much information as you can. Be specific about what you have to say.

    * Personal contact - we do not advise you to arrange personal meetings with other Website / Forum users. You would be meeting a total stranger, you cannot verify another member's age or sex, and such arrangements are inherently fraught with risk. You do so at your own risk.

    * Search the archive - it's on the cards that your subject has cropped up before, so we recommend  you search the site by using the search facility.

 
Forbidden Territory

Some behaviour is unacceptable in the Website / Forum, and we will insist on the following rules being observed at all times.

    * Bad language - it isn't necessary to use bad language to make a point. Although modern usage has seen many previously unacceptable terms become a part of everyday conversation, there are certain words which are universally acknowledged as being inappropriate in normal conversation. We will exercise our right to remove any posts that (in our opinion) contain such language, and the Website / Forum editor's decision will be final.

    * 'Adult' content - references or links of an adult nature will not be tolerated - posts or threads that contain links to 'adult' sites, text, or images will be deleted without warning.

    * Racist, sexist and pc comment - we will not tolerate racist or sexist comments in any form.

    * Libellous or defamatory comment - please do not exhort others to boycott a company that provided you with bad service or products. Do not make statements that you cannot substantiate, or state as fact, something which is in reality your opinion. "Fred Bloggs Ltd took my money and ran" may well be your opinion, but an action for libel by the company would almost certainly succeed, and ITPP Ltd will not be held liable as the online publishers of your comment. We aren't prepared to take such risks, and will delete any comment that is, in our opinion, potentially libellous or defamatory, however, the responsibility is yours and you should agree not to use our Website / Forums for this type of comment. The editor's decision is final in such cases.

    * 'Cracks' or copyright infringement - we do not permit the posting of information that will enable other people to use pirated software or to evade laws or copyright laws. Please do not post serial numbers or CD keys, or links to sites that contain file-sharing software, hacks or such information.

Our editorial policy

Our membership is representative of all levels of the local community, and no matter what, we will do our best to see that everyone is welcomed - no matter what their interest, status or standing.

If at any time you are uncertain about something, or if there is anything about Website / Forum conduct that you find confusing, please don't hesitate to let us know. Use the contact form and send us an email. We'll do our best to respond quickly, but we receive a lot of email - bear with us. We want to hear from you if you have an idea for an improvement, or some extra content. We can't promise to translate your ideas into action, but we'll look into every proposal or suggestion.
