Welcome to My Forum!

Here you’ll be able to interact and engage in conversations with neighbours within your Live DifRent community. The My Forum section has various discussion categories at your disposal and these are all visible by the neighbours within your site only - so when posting topics and comments, you can be sure you’re talking to someone who lives on your site. 

The full guidelines on My Forum can be found below. If you have any questions, please get in contact with your asset manager.

We hope you enjoy interacting with other Live DifRent residents!

My Forum Guidelines: 

Before you get started, take a moment to read these guidelines to make sure that the Forum works for you. Please remember that you are bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to them, please don't use the Forum.

The forum is divided into different categories to help you find items of interest. Within each category you will find discussions on that topic which you can read or contribute to - you can even start discussions of your own.

To post on an existing discussion, click on the topic you wish to respond to. This will display the original post, along with any replies. At the bottom of the thread there is an option to Leave a Comment. Add your comment and then click the Post button to submit.

To start a discussion of your own, click the Post New Topic button at the top right of the main Forum page labelled. This will open a form. Select the Category of the forum that best applies to your topic and add a Subject.  Choose something meaningful and catchy to get the most responses. Input your message in the Main Text box.  Once you're happy with your post, click the Post button.

When posting, please use the same courtesy that you would show when speaking face-to-face with someone.

Any problems, do contact us using the contact form on this site which can be found here.

The forum is not a pre-moderated forum. Our policy is to keep intervention to a minimum and let the conversation flow.

However, we do have a few rules to make sure we keep the forum a friendly and safe place to talk.

You can read all the whys and wherefores behind our rules below but here's the simple version:

• No personal attacks
  •    No posts that break the law
  •    No misleading or deliberately inflammatory behaviour

We'd appreciate it if you could use the same courtesy when posting messages on the Forum as you would use when speaking to someone face to face.

We are all for freedom of speech. That said, we will remove posts we consider to contain personal attacks, to break the law and/or to be obscene, racist, sexist, disablist or homophobic – once they are brought to our attention. (Please note that any subsequent posts repeating the words in the deleted post may then be deleted, too.)

Remember, we do not pre-moderate posts. We rely on our tenants to let us know about any posts that break our Guidelines.

The quickest way to let us at know about a post (or thread) that you think should be deleted is to report it by clicking the report button on the thread.  We look at every reported post as soon as we possibly can.

We draw the line at obscenity, racist and disablist language, and wording that is truly beyond the pale. So, if you're not sure which side of that line your swearword of choice may fall, it might be best not to use it.

We have no problem with people posting the odd link to other sites/blogs that other posters might find useful or helpful. But we will delete anyone's attempts to "spam" the board with links, as a way of promoting their own product, services, survey or campaign.

We don't generally delete whole discussions threads, unless they're libellous or racist or otherwise break the law, because it's frustrating for those who have taken the time to write often carefully considered responses and then, minutes later, see them removed. That said, we're here to make people's lives easier, not the reverse: if you have a pressing reason for wanting a thread you have started to be deleted, please report it to us and we'll take a look.

If a thread is deleted, please resist the temptation to start a new one repeating and rehashing everything that has been deleted: we consider that to be very bad manners and, of course, it's highly likely that the new thread will be deleted, too.
