The Rulez
Make using www.bescenta.co.uk the most fun, safe and enjoyable experience that it can be.
Online communites are fantastic … you can share your opinion of things and find out what other people think. But, especially as its open to the world, you have to be careful about what you say about yourself, and to be considerate about other peoples’ feelings.
When you’re online, make sure that you get the best out of the service that you can, but – very importantly – make sure that you are safe, respectful and that you look after yourself. Think about what you are saying and how you say it. Could your words or images be taken as homophobic, racist or sexist? Could they be misused by someone? If so, don’t post them.
Everything you post online is viewable, so make sure that you think about what you do and write on the site.

Photos
Do you really want to post a picture of yourself? If so, what sort of picture do you want people to see of you? Could the image be misused? Remember, if you make your image public everyone can see it, so think before you make it public.
