New Members [Read First]!

[IAOMAS]

If you are new to this forum please 'Introduce Yourself' on the board within the Information Section. People may say hello to you.

Please use your real name! You can edit this by clicking on the profile button after you have signed in and putting your real name in the box next to NAME- please note, this doesnt change your username or password, they remain the same.

Please note that being a user of this forum does not make you an IAOMAS member, please see www.iaomas.com for information on how you can become part of IAOMAS.

Not sure if you're an IAOMAS member or not? To be an IAOMAS member, you must be part of a school that has joined the IAOMAS & is listed on the IAOMAS.com directory. Students automatically become members when their school & instructor joins.

Of course you don`t have to & are welcome to post & participate on this forum still.

Finally, personality clashes, vendettas, flaming & other nasty stuff will not be tolerated on this forum, or by anyone within the IAOMAS. The IAOMAS is the place for instructors, schools & students to get away from that crap. Please ensure you read the post [glow=red,2,300]my vision![/glow]

It is therefore advisable to use your real name, use a decent picture & add as many details to your profile as possible & of course post your details to the thread `Please Introduce Yourself`.

Please also read the F.A.Q.
iaomas1.proboards14.com/index.cgi?board=Information&action=display&thread=1085908192

The IAOMAS is a wonderful thing & members will not allow it to become anyone's personal battlefield!

If you don't believe in what the IAOMAS represents or its ideals you shouldn't be a member ... and you should stay away from being a forum user!

That said, all in all, we are a very friendly, open bunch & whole heartedly welcome you to this forum.

Please feel free to get involved in all discussions.

Dear IAOMAS Forum member,

Due to the recent upgrades on the IAOMAS Forum (running PBv4), we are able to do away with the old password system.

From this point on, all members have been assigned to a group (except for board staff members).

There are three groups:

1. IAOMAS Instructors
2. IAOMAS students
3. Registered Boards members (which remains as before, with a couple of new rankings)

Only certain groups are now able to view (or even see they exsist) certain boards (listed below). If you cannot see the board listed below, it means you are not meant to access it (but it is there - honest)
NOTE: If you are an IAOMAS member, either student or instructor, and your profile hasnt changed, please contact one of the Global Moderators or Admin who can update your profile to the correct group & enable you to visit the right boards. (view staff under the members link). Please include details of your club, country, state, your name, profile name etc etc.

Some profiles may have been missed in this operation, this is due to either not recognising your name/profile (hence the use of full names being an advantage) or simply because I had to try & edit 500+ profiles. Also, most profiles under 3 posts havnt been changed (though you can still get them changed by contacting a Global Moderator).

The forum is divided up into sections:

Information: viewable by all

General: viewable by registered members, IAOMAS Students & IAOMAS Instructors (except the General board which is viewable by all

IAOMAS Students: viewable by IAOMAS Students only

IAOMAS Instructors: viewable by IAOMAS Instructors only

IAOMAS Internal: viewable by IAOMAS Students & IAOMAS Instructor

Complaints: viewable by complaints officer & Global Moderators only

The Examiners panel has been moved to the Instructors area, but can only be updated by a moderator or Admin, but is viewable to all instructors - email if you wish to be included here.

Finally, the Archive section is being reviewed but remains as usual for the time being.

Note: All board members are advised to go to the IM (Instant Message section) and set it up to notify you via email if you have an instant message.

CALENDAR
The Calendar section can now be posted on by all registered members, for IAOMAS events only. Simply click on a date and put in the details of the event. This will be changed if its abused!

If you have any questions, please psot in the admin section or the General board under the PBv4 updates post.

Enjoy,

IAOMAS Admin
