UKTV Message Board Rules and Guidelines
Everything you need to know about UKTV's message boards, from creating a smilie to reporting inappropriate content...
When are the message boards open?
They are open 24 hours a day.
How do I get a message board user name?
To use the UKTV message boards, you first have to be registered with the site. If you aren't yet registered, click on Register (in the top right-hand box). While registering, you will be prompted to enter your message board nickname.
If you are already registered and don't have a nickname (or want to change it), log in and go to My UKTV where you can update your details.
How can I post a message or reply?
If you wish to answer messages within a topic, scroll down to the bottom of the page where it says 'Enter your reply' and then add your message. After entering your message, you can see how your message will look by clicking on Preview, before clicking Send to make it live. You can edit your message at the Preview stage too.
How can I start a new topic?
If you wish to talk about something different, you can start a new topic. Simply click on Start a new topic, decide on a topic heading and type your message. After entering your message, you can see how your message will look by clicking on Preview, before clicking Send to make it live.
Are there any censor features?
The message board administrators have the power to censor certain words that may be posted. This censoring is not an exact science, however, so certain words may be censored out of context. Please realise that the censoring, if any censoring is being performed, is being done by a computer based on the words that are being screened. Words that are censored are replaced with asterisks.
What happens if I see inappropriate content?
If you see or receive any communication that does not comply with our guidelines or that you consider is inappropriate, please click on Report this post and follow the instructions. Your post is send to a third party company who 'moderate' the message boards, and they will decide on the most appropriate action to take, if any.
Why has my message been removed?
If your message breaks the message board rules, the moderators will remove it (see below).
