Community dos and don'ts
DO
-
Welcome newcomers. We love it when another
person joins our community
-
Be sincere in your contributions. Engage with
your fellow traveller - to inspire, enable or share
experiences.
-
Respect that other people have different
points of view, travel journeys, styles, budgets and confidence
levels.
-
Give feedback, to your fellow travellers, and
us, in a helpful and constructive manner.
-
Keep it legal. Please don’t defame others,
post porn on the site, plot any illegal activities, or post other
people’s private information on the site.
-
Use Common Sense and balance when seeking
advice. Make your own enquiries, especially around subjects like
health and safety and trusting people with your money.
-
Be safe and smart when arranging rides,
homestays and travel companions.
DON'T
-
Create content of a discriminatory or derogatory
nature. Debate is great, and you can do it without being
offensive, humiliating or intimidating based on.
-
Create content that would be reasonably
classified as exclusively 'adult' and restricted accordingly (such
as pornography or graphic violence).
-
Defame, harass, flame or hold grudges.
-
Post personal details or private information
about any other person (or anything contrary to our Privacy
Policy).
- Impersonate another person
-
Advertise commercial products or servicesin
the community pages
-
Be - or - feed a Troll. Trolls post messages
or content deliberately designed to get the blood boiling. Replying
to or arguing with a Troll is feeding. The best pest-control is to
ignore, and report them to us to alert us to them.
-
Use excessively coarse language. Humans swear.
But go easy on the loose language or we’ll have to tone you down.
Remember, even if it’s not offensive to you, it might be to other
people.
-
Discuss how to commit illegal activity (like
buying drugs, avoiding visa restrictions, etc). It’s OK to talk
about the existence of these things, but don’t advise how and where
to do them.
-
Be a know-it-all. Show off your
insights, not your attitude.
-
Don't hide behind user name. We respect the
right of travellers to be anonymous, which means some people say
things they wouldn’t say face to face. If you’re tempted, remember,
we can see who you are, even if other community members can’t.
