Guidelines & Terms of Service

Guidelines:

TwinF is a web site that asks for your input, both in the form of comments on blog posts and as Member Travel Experiences.  As such, it's important that we agree on ground rules or guidelines for your participation.
  • Use your good judgment. 
  • Be responsible. Don't post commercial advertisements or spam.
  • Be civil. Disagreement is fine, but personal attacks are not.
  • Be respectful. TwinF members represent many different races, ethnicities, religions and nationalities.
  • Be helpful.  We all need a little help sometimes.
  • Have fun.
We reserve the right to remove any post or remove/ban any member at our discretion.  Usually, this will involve a notification and/or warning before action is taken.
