Forum accounts
Without a forum account, you may only see the wiki and see the public forums.
Start by requesting a forum account. You will be asked for some basic information about yourself and especially a valid e-mail address.
If you had an account on the old THCC web site, please choose the same account name for the new web site. (If your old account name had spaces, then you will have to do without the spaces for the new web site. No spaces - just letters and numbers. Sorry.) Please could club members try to fill in the field asking for a membership number as this makes life simpler for the overworked webmaster.
The system will then send you an e-mail. Follow the instructions in the e-mail to have your account confirmed.
As a forum user, your account name will be displayed in gray. Shortly afterward, an overworked webmaster should see the new account and will try to identify who you are. So far, you may only see the wiki and see the public forums.
If you are not a club member, your account may be set to "Friend of THCC". As a Friend, your account name will be displayed in green and you may see and now post in the public forums.
If you are a THCC club member, and have a current membership number, your account will be set to "THCC member". As a Member, your account name will be displayed in blue, you may see and post in the public forums, you may see and post in the private forums and you are allowed to edit pages in the wiki.
If you are also a THCC committee member or section rep, your account name will be displayed in red or orange.
