We respect everyoneโ€™s right to express their thoughts and opinions, and encourage constructive dialogue among members of this group. However, we do please ask you to remember that if your contributions donโ€™t comply with Facebookโ€™s Terms, and/or our House Rules, then we may remove them, and if you repeatedly donโ€™t adhere to them then we may block you from posting to the SwimWell page. While we moderate this site, we do hope to create a community with you that is built on respect with a culture of self-moderation. So weโ€™ve kept it to just four basic rules that we ask you to keep in mind. Do not include content, image or links to things which could be considered obscene, offensive, defamatory, threatening, harassing, overtly sexual, discriminatory or hateful to another person or organisation - including us, our partners, our employees and other people or organisations. So no repeat posts please or unsolicited ads. Please no multiple or repetitive posts by a single user, or repetitive posts copied and pasted or duplicated by single or multiple users. KEEP POSTS RELEVANT to the SwimWell page and thread. Please do not post any of your own or anyone elseโ€™s PERSONAL INFORMATION. COMPETITIONS: To be eligible for our Facebook giveaways and competitions, all applicants MUST be Wellington residents. We have the right to re-draw a prize if the applicant is not located in Wellington and/or doesn't meet any criteria set out in the competition post. NO ELECTIONEERING
The SwimWell page must not be used for electioneering purposes. Any post - positive or negative - made by any individual specifically relating to their own - or someone else's - nomination, intention to run for Council or election campaign, will be removed immediately. We welcome your feedback, both positive and negative, and will endeavour to respond to your comments when we can. While we support lively, open discussion, we reserve the right at our discretion to delete any comments that donโ€™t comply with our rules or which we otherwise think are inappropriate and (if required) block users. Thatโ€™s enough of the serious stuff. Now letโ€™s have some fun. Make a post, add a comment and get involved. We look forward to interacting with you, thanks for following our page.
