Almost every real-life community is one that has both merits and weak spots. This occurs because so many different people have so many different opinions about how things should be. The community that YOU ultimately choose is the one that seems to "ring true" with your own beliefs.
We strongly feel that our policies and rules are VERY straight-forward and reasonable to reasonable people. After all, it's REASONABLE people that are our "TARGET AUDIENCE" for this system. Included in these rules are rules to which we Managers and Asst. Mgrs. must conform as well, so it's not all on your shoulders.
1 - Have fun and learn from one another. Animalchatters is here for people to have fun. The rules are to protect your enjoyment of our services, not to be spoil sports. Most are common sense and courtesy.
2. Please do not reply to posts from your mail box. This causes your email to be shown which can be a breach of security for you.
3 - No flames. We want the online experience to be fun for all, not just an elite few. Debate is great; but keep your discussion to the topic, not your fellow chatters and posters. Lets all avoid specific politics.
4 - No bigotry. Prejudice of any kind has no place on our boards, nor in our chats. Chatters and posters may not be excluded based on gender, race, religion, sexual orientation or national origin
5 - No Manager baiting. Hosts, moderators, and other staff are people too. We volunteer our time and effort to make all of Animalchatters a great place to hang out, but we want to have fun too. No one likes to be a target.
6 - No advertising. Animalchatters is a noncommercial site.
7- This Group is private property; "free speech" does not apply. The group is privately owned and you are non-paying guests. While we wish to encourage you to express yourselves, your "rights" end where the other peoples' rights begin. "Free Speech" does not apply here anymore that it does in a private home. If the rules as applied in a particular room or board don't suit you, find another. There are plenty. The Managers own this group. Their word is final.
8 - Don't use one SMF community to criticize another SMF community It's not appropriate to use the one community to criticize other communities. If you have something critical to say about a community, its moderator or members, e-mail the moderator. For that matter, it is best not to criticize others, wherever. Let's treat others as we wish to be treated. There is plenty of room on the Internet for all of us.
9 - Do not use crude, obscene or derogatory language or inappropriate nicks. They will be removed from membership. While we are not language police, we ask you to keep in mind the family nature of this group. We over look occasional slip ups, but please avoid regular use of obscenity in chats, & posts. Do not use obscene, suggestive, bigoted or misleading nicks.

As it seems some are confused I did a few screen shots and edited so I could point out things 1. Image 1 on top, you see I signed in, note arrow pointing to the word Forum, if you click that tab you will find our message boards 2. Image 2 on bottom, once in forums here, note on left side you see tabs just above board, Red arrow here points to New Topic.Click that to open a new thread. The blue arrow is where Reply would be, if you had opened someones message and Reply was an option.
