TreasureBeach.Net Runnin's Guidelines

This Runnin's was created to help the community including all citizens of Treasure Beach, yardies living abroad and visitors new and old. We hope that you will find this place useful for keeping in touch with friends and relatives, learning about the wonderful vacation opportunities we offer and keeping up with the news about town.

 

Over the life of the Runnin's our visitors have been overwhelmingly positive and respectful when leaving messages here but there have been some instances where things have gotten out of hand. Therefore we offer these guidelines to ensure the integrity of the
TreasureBeach.Net Runnin's

Think before you post. The audience on the Internet is huge and comments thrown hastily into a message can be read by just about anyone. Is the Internet really the place you want to air dirty laundry and say what you may be privately thinking? There are no country or age limits to the Runnin's. It is open to the public, meaning the world. That means tourists, yardies, kids, adults, Jamaicans, Africans, North Americans, Europeans, Asians. Anyone. So do yourself and everyone a favor and think before you post.

 

No personal attacks. When writing a post, you should extend the same courtesy and respect that you would when speaking face to face with a person or group of people. It's certainly all right to disagree with a person's point of view, but to flame or race them up for different/unpopular ideas is just not acceptable. We promote free-speech and the open exchange of ideas as long as that speech does not infringe upon the rights of others or cause harm to persons or their reputations.

No unproven rumors or profanity. This forum is an information exchange, not a gossip column. TB.net can not check the accuracy of any rumors posted on the Runnin's. Therefore unproven rumors and rumors in general are subject to removal at the discretion of TB.net. And any post with profanity will be either deleted or edited.

  Consider using your real name when posting something you feel strongly about. That would lend credibility to your argument and make the exchange more honest. It is all too easy to hide behind a fake name and feel 'free' to say things you would not normally if they were directly attributed to your name.

Unfortunately TB.net may have to delete some messages if they go outside of these guidelines. We do not edit such messages nor will we send the original text back to you. Its up to you to keep a copy if you want ot edit it later. We reserve the right to be the final judge of unacceptable material and at anytime remove the offending message.We have no intention of putting each message through a fine tooth comb to make a sanitized version of Treasure Beach appear in the Runnin's. We are simply advocating a positive, respectful attitude towards others and to our community. If you read something on this forum that you feel is untrue or otherwise inappropriate, please contact the webmaster immediately at webmaster@treasurebeach.net.

No invasion of privacy. Just because something is true does not mean its reasonable to post it for all the world to see.

No politics. We don't accept posts that promote or criticize a particular politician or political party.

The visitor is ultimately responsible for what they post. Opinions posted on this forum do not necessarily reflect the views of TB.net. Therefore, TB.net cannot be held responsible. TB.net makes no claims as to the validity of any statements contained in this form. People posting and reading on this forum do so at their own risk.

 

Remember: Positive Treasure Beach, Positive Jamaica
