Events:

 

Here at The Rabbit Den we offer each user the opportunity to create Event pages for Event which you think will be attractive and interesting to other users. You can either advertise other peoples Events (as long as you have consent). Alternatively you can advertise your own parties/gatherings/celebrations/shindigs - we suggest that you make personal event 'by invitation only'!

Our Guidelines are laid out below...

Creating an Events page

Before considering the creation of an Event page, please first check that an Event page dedicated to that Event does not already exist. An Event can be created by any member free of charge. The creator of the Event automatically becomes the moderator of that Event and has the responsibility to ensure that the Event page is running smoothly and that everyone is sticking to the Rules and Regulations set out at the bottom of this page. Please see our FAQs for detailed information on how to create an Event.

Moderating your Event page

The moderator of the Event page can choose from three privacy setting upon creation; Open Access (anyone can join), Moderated Access (your request will be reviewed by the moderator), or Invitation Only (you must be invited by the moderator to join this Event). The setting of the page can be changed at any time by the moderator. Please see the Rules and Regulations at the bottom of this page for more information on the moderator's responsibilities.

Reporting Members

If a member of an Event page is misusing the page, the other members can report the post(s) which violate the guidelines to the moderator by clicking 'report' on the post itself. The moderator will receive a message and should then delete the offending post and contact the member with a warning if they believe that this is necessary. If the member continues to misuse the page, the moderator will delete them from the page if they believe that this is appropriate. If the member is subsequently not deleted from the page and there is reason to believe that they should have been, other members should send a private message to the moderator saying why they believe the post and/or the member should be deleted. If the moderator still fails to take action the member can visit the perpetrator's profile and click 'report'. This type of report goes straight to The Rabbit Den admin team, NOT to the moderator of the Event page and is confidential. The Rabbit Den admin team with then deal with the situation in which ever way they see fit.

Reporting a Moderator

If an Event page is not being moderated as it should be, members of the page can report the current moderator by visiting the moderators profile and clicking on 'report'. This type of report goes straight to The Rabbit Den admin team and is confidential. If the page continues to be neglected or mismanaged and the moderator receives a high number of reports, he/she will be removed from the page.

If this is found to be taking place, the moderator will be removed from their post by the The Rabbit Den admin team. A member's post or the member themselves should however, be removed if they break the Rules and Regulations outlined below.
