Welcome to the T3connect community website created by Transition
Town Thames please join up and read through these guidelines and
remember them while you are using the site.
Setting up your account
Please sign up using your own name, just your first name if you
prefer, but please no nick names (unless that’s what you are known
as in real life!). This site is about growing community connections
and we can’t do that with masks on.
Please load up a picture of yourself, so we can put a name to
the face. For a bit of guidance on how to do this check out our
beginners guide.
Adding Businesses and Organisations to T3connect
First off become an individual member of T3Connect (if you
aren't already) here.
If you are in a decision making position at a business or
organisation, and are empowered to make this kind of call, we would
love it if you created a group for it. We have different limits for
businesses and groups so please have a look at our instructions
here.
Businesses or organisations that create member pages will be
asked to create the appropriate group in the appropriate format.
Member pages that are misused in this way will be removed.
What you can add or discuss here.
In any of the pages, photos or video discussions or discussions
on this site do not display pornography, cruelty to humans or
animals including but not limited to any graphic images likely to
cause distress.
We want you (and everyone else!) to feel safe here so please
don’t disparage people due to race or ethnicity,age, gender or
sexual preference, disability, appearance or body shape. The
management or T3Connect will remove any material they deem to be
inappropriate. They may also ban members and their computer which
may impact on other members using that machine.
Please keep it civil and constructive and like my Nana always
said, ‘If you can’t say it in a nice way, what are you hoping to
achieve by saying it?’.
Treatment of minors
Do not use this site to flirt with or groom any minor including
through private messages. Any evidence of this will lead to the
banning of site members. Minors should also not flirt with any
adult (over 18) members of the site. Please contact site management
here if you feel you are being approached in a manner that
transgresses these rules.
Spam is not allowed
Please don’t spam the place up. Don’t send out multiple messages
to other members promoting anything. We will suspend accounts for
spamming.
Organisations are what we call clubs, or teams etc that are not
run for profit
Any not for profit organisation located or with a branch located
between Manaia, Pururi, Turua and the river cottage on the kopu
hikuai is encouraged to create a page here (as long as their nature
does not conflict with our TOS). Even if you have your own site a
simple page here can link through to your site.
To create a page for your organisation click on ‘Organisations’
on the main menu. It is really important that you include some
contact details including a phone number. This is because we verify
each organisation before we make them visible to the public.
You can add photos into the page set up discussion and create an
RSS feed from another site.
Businesses are anything run for a profit!
Any business located or with a branch located between Manaia,
Pururi, Turua and the river cottage on the Kopu Hikuai is
encouraged to create a page here. Even if you have your own site a
simple page here can link through to your site.
To create a page for your organisation click on ‘Organisations’
on the main menu. It is really important that you include some
contact details including a phone number. This is because we verify
each business before we make them visible to the public.
Businesses get less for free than organisations. For free please
fill in your details including contact details, hours of business
and link that seems appropriate. You may also include two
photographs in the text box. These photographs could be of your
business or a scan of a menu or stock list. You can also load a
photograph (avatar) to represent the group on search pages. You can
change these as often as you like.
The other features, text multiple pages, RSS feed, comments and
discussion forums are available for $50 a year. This also includes
the ability to use our free community listings as a business (other
business listings will be deleted). Paying business will also be
featured for one week per year on the main page.
If you create your T3Connect page and add other information on
top of the basic details and two photographs (+avatar) this will
not show up unless the business becomes a paying business.
Free Listings
Members of T3 connect are welcome to use our free listings.
Listings will run for two weeks. If your listing is no longer valid
please feel free to remove it earlier.
Businesses can not use our free listings, unless they have
signed up for our premium business package. Listings that appear to
refer to a business will be removed at the sole discretion of
T3connect administration.
Please don’t list anything illegal, photos will be treated the
same on listings as elsewhere on the site.
T3connect is not liable for any losses incurred through our free
listing service or if the service is not available. T3connect makes
no promise or warranty that the site will be available at all times
or indeed at all. T3connect reserves the right to change the
guidelines or Terms of service at any time
