Forum accounts
Without a forum account, you may only see the wiki.
Start by requesting a forum account. You will be asked for some basic information about yourself and especially a valid e-mail address. The forum account profiles act as the club membership records, so club members need to provide contact details for themselves and for someone who should be contacted in case of an emergency.
The system will then send you an e-mail. Follow the instructions in the e-mail to have your account confirmed.
| As a forum User, your account name will be displayed in gray. So far, you may not see the forums. Shortly afterward, an overworked webmaster should see the new account and will try to identify who you are. | |
| If you are not a paid-up club member, your account may be set to "Friend of THCC". As a Friend, your account name will now be displayed in green and you can now see and post in the public forums. | |
| If you are a paid-up club member, your account will be set to "THCC Club Member". As a Member, your account name will be displayed in blue, you can see and post in the public forums, you can also see and post in the private forums and you are allowed to edit pages in the wiki. | |
| If you are also a THCC section rep, your account name will be displayed in orange. | |
| If you are also a THCC committee member, your account name will be displayed in red. | |
| If you do not renew your club membership, your account will be set to "Past THCC member". As a Past member, your account name will be displayed in green and you may see and post in the public forums, but not the private forums. |
