The BPYC forum is an excellent resource for all members to ask questions and share information about our club and sailing in general. Prior to posting please take a minute to read the expectations for forum use below. Here you'll also find some tips on forum etiquette to make sure you're not unintentionally committing a forum faux pas.
Expectations
- Be civil - Members of BPYC have an obligation to remain courteous at all times. This obligation extends to forum activity.
- Be respectful - Keep your language clean and content appropriate for all members of our BPYC family.
- Be relevant - Posts should have a tangible connection to BPYC, our membership, or the sailing community in general.
Etiquette Tips
- Make quality posts - Ask yourself if your comments add to the discussion. Posts should be meaningful, on topic, and offer something new.
- Start a new topic - Don't take a discussion in a radically different direction. Rather than replying with something unrelated, start a new topic!
- Choose the right category - Select the most appropriate category when starting a new topic. This will help other members find your post in the future as well as keep our forum nice and tidy.
- Do your research - Use the search function before you ask a question. It's very possible that your question has already been asked and answered!
- Say "thank you" - Use the "thank you" button rather than replying that you agree with something that's been said.
- Use email - If your comments are not beneficial to the membership as a whole, please choose to use email instead of posting to the forum or replying to a topic.
