There is no singular reason for this. Partly it is because we like the look (and hope you do too), partly to differentiate ourselves from other social networking sites, partly to make it more comfortable to use in low light environments, and it’s also likely a nod to our past background in the nineties and noughties clubbing scene
This is a bit of a social experiment. Personally we find polished fonts impersonal. When we read such fonts it communicates a certain formality, as if reading a finished product, a book, news article, etc.. Accordingly people respond to such communication with equal formality, cue the rise of people correcting grammar and spelling. Human communication is always a work in progress, we are all learning constantly about communication. Using a handwritten font is for us, a reminder that we are interacting with other humans, not robots or literature works, and that the font keeps us all humble and shifts the focus to communication intent rather than form.
From the inception of myTriib we have put our values before budget. myTriib is hosted on servers that use 100% renewable energy. The main myTriib office is also located off-grid on 100% solar power. All staff involved in working on myTriib work almost exclusively from home, reducing the carbon footprint further. As myTriib develops we will always build sustainability into our business decisions and provide a summary here.
We have elected to make myTriib a paid once off subscription for a number of reasons:
That said myTriib will always assess its membership subscription costs to ensure they are fair and keep the site accessible to the majority of users, while maintaining the objectives stated above.
We at myTriib firmly believe that no human has authority over another, this includes us over myTriib members. If you are involved in a dispute with another member we encourage you to resolve the matter yourself. Options for resolution depend on the situation, the importance of maintaining the relationship, and each party’s comfort and preferences in dealing with conflict. If the relationship is important, our personal preference is to give the other party honest and fair feedback about what we can see in the issue from our perspective, and try to discuss it further with the hope of a resolution. The link at the bottom of this page titled on “How to" (Build Your Triib) may have other useful information in it to assist your handling of the dispute.
Unfortunately the chat and board modules rely on Adobe Flash. IOS devices do not support Flash natively. If you would like to use chat and boards you can either access it in a non-IOS device or install a browser with Flash support through the App Store, e.g. Dolphin Browser.

Click on the Mail icon in member menu and click Outbox. This will take you to your Outbox which contains Messages and Greetings you have sent. You can have just messages display or just Greetings by placing a check mark beside what you want to see. Removing a check mark beside Messages for example will display everything but Messages and vise versa.
Click on the Mail icon in member menu then click on Trash. This will display all Messages and Greetings you deleted. Choose what you want to retrieve and click Restore The message(s) selected will now be back in your Inbox.
