To remove your account you must email info@thegyc.com USING YOUR EMAIL ACCOUNT. Inflamatory emails are automatically removed so please do not use slang of curse words within your email as we will not recieve them. You should sign the email with your full name. Make sure you state exactly that you would like your details removed. We will not be able to remove any of your forum posts or sent messages.
How do you put private message on your profile so that people can message you?
When you look at your own profile whilst logged in to TheGYC, you will not see a link to message yourself. However other people can.
What happens after I turn 26?
When you turn 26 you can technichally no longer be a member of TheGYC.com. However we allow a period of 3 months following your birthday to wrap up any community related activities on your account (many people collect friends msn addresses or phone numbers in this time). After three months your account is blocked - however your data will remain in our database unless you request that it be removed.
Why have I been banned?
There could be any number of reasons. To find out why please login to the website using your username and password - you'll be presented with a reason within a few seconds. You may not have been banned due to your own actions - it may simply be a precautionary measure. Don't worry!

If you forget your password, please use the password reset facility available via the link next to the login box. If you forget your username please contact us (link to your left).
Will people be able to find out that i'm gay?
There is no reason why they should. It is unlikely anyone will be so determined to find out that you are gay.

Your sexuality is your privacy and you do not need to state your sexuality on TheGYC.
