RULES AND ETIQUETTE FOR ONLINE COMMUNITY

Thank you for being part of the Western Montana's Glacier Country Online Community. To ensure the best possible experience for all community partners, we have established some basic guidelines for participation.

What is the Online Community?

It is a community for Western Montana's Glacier Country members and partners to engage in discussion and seek and receive feedback and resources from other professional peers in the travel and tourism promotion industry. We encourage members to come prepared to share successes and challenges, provide constructive feedback, bring questions and provide perspective in all manners related to destination marketing and management.

Members are asked to agree to follow the below rules and etiquette to ensure the Community remains an open space to discuss relevant issues and topics. In order to preserve an environment that encourages both positive and collaborative dialogue, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate membership in this community for anyone who violate these rules.

Access to the Community Groups

• Access to the Online Community is an exclusive benefit of membership or partnership with Western Montana's Glacier Country.
• Destination organizations, tourism boards, state associations and other not-for-profit tourism promotion entities have full access to all general discussions and destination organization groups.
• Partners, business members and for-profit companies have the following access permissions:
  • Full access to all General Discussion groups
  • Full access to Event Impact Calculator groups
  • Full access to any Event or Committee group to which that individual has an active registration within the Western Montana's Glacier Country database of record
  • No access to any group created for the exclusive purpose of Destination Organization discussion

Rules

• Don’t attack others. The discussions in the Community are meant to stimulate conversation, not to create contention. All defamatory, abusive, profane, threatening, offensive, or illegal materials are strictly prohibited.
• Don't post solicitation for services or other commercial messages. Members who post content that is explicitly commercial in nature will be given a written warning and their offending post(s) will be removed. Additional infractions will result in removal from the Community.
• Do not post anything that you would not want the world to see or that you would not want anyone to know came from you. Assume that any posted content is visible to the public, even in access-restricted discussion groups.
• Respect intellectual property. Only post content that you have personally created or have permission to use and have properly attributed to the content creator.
• Western Montana's Glacier Country reserves the right to reproduce post content on other channels and mediums, including but not limited to websites, emails, blogs, social media and videos.

Etiquette Guidelines

• Be courteous. Please ask participants for permission to republish their words elsewhere (especially if elsewhere would be a publicly viewable setting).
• When citing Community discussions, please include a link back to the original discussion or to the Community homepage.
• Transparency is very important in gaining trust in online relationships, therefore be clear who you are and who you work for when posting on any platform.
• State concisely and clearly the topic of your comments in the subject line. This allows members to respond more appropriately to your posting and makes it easier for members to search the archives by subject.
• Send messages such as "thanks for the information" or "me, too" to individuals, not to the entire list. Do this by using the "Reply to Sender" link in every message.
• Do not send administrative messages, such as “remove me from the list,” to the group. Instead, use the web interface to change your settings or to remove yourself from a list.
• Questions, comments or concerns about the Community can be forwarded directly to Western Montana's Glacier Country staff at gcoffice@glaciermt.com.
