I invited a friend and he/she didn’t respond to my invitation. Can I revite him/her?
Yes. In order to re-invite someone, click on "My Friends," then on "Manage." Next to the person's name, you'll see either "Pending," which means an invitation has been sent but not responded to yet, or "Expired," meaning it's been more than 30 days since you invited her without a response. Before you can re-invite your friend, you must delete that invitation. Once the original invitation has been deleted, you may invite them again using the "add a friend" process.
How secure is the network?
The CBBS Tiger Ties Online Professional Network is a secure online community. Unlike popular online social networks that are open to the general public, this community is a private network that requires identity verification before a person from the CBBS Community can join. All information is pre populated.
How much information about me is available for others to see?
Each profile begins with very limited information with just your name listed within the network. No contact information is shown unless you include it in your completed profile. Then, once you activate and modify the privacy settings, only what you have entered will be accessible by others within the community.
