FORUM POSTING RULES
Keeping this a very open community with minimal restrictions on posting content etc is our goal, however, we would like to point out a few things that will not be tolerated here for obvious reasons. If something does become a persistant problem then the problem will be dealt with promptly. We want to ensure that this remains a healthy community for all of our valued visitors and/or members.
We encourage to you please protect yourself online. These are public forums so use caution when posting personal information such as your email, phone number etc.. within individual postings.
If you do have any problems or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact TT, Bloons or Wendy.
1) To keep our community going strong we are going to be filtering out our memberlist. By this we mean any ACTIVE member (minimum of 20 posts) not posting within a 6 MONTH period will be deleted from the board and will need to re-register in order to become active again. All previous post counts etc will be discarded thus the user will be starting from scratch. (NOTE: If you plan to be inactive for a period of 6 months but wish to have your account remain you MUST contact us to let us know, otherwise the above will occur).
As well any NEW member joining the community must post in order to be considered a member and must gain an active status within 60 days. Anyone not posting and gaining an active status (minimum 20 posts) will be deleted after 60 days of JOINING the forum.
The purpose of the above is for administration purposes. If someone is not going to become a full member of the community then there is no reason for them to have access to the boards where lots of information is shared.
2) Racism of any form will not be tolerated. You will be given one warning. Failure to comply will result in your immediate removal from these boards. All posts will be deleted and you will be banned from further activity on the boards. Freedom of speech is one thing, but using racism, in any form, is simply not acceptable.
3) We encourage individuality and the freedom to speak your mind but please be respectful. We are not responsible for resolving disputes that may arise on the boards. EVERYONE is entitled to their own opinion and we stand behind that as long as it's carried out in a respectful manner.
4) Please keep any sexual content in our new muff forum.
5) Any advice given out on these boards is exactly that, advice. It may not be intended for everyone and may not be coming from someone qualified to give out that information. Therefore you can take what you want from it, come to your own conclusions and act upon it on your own accord.
6) Spamming or attempts to collect personal information and email addresses is not tolerated. Any posts that we feel violate our rules, will be deleted.
7) Spamming the board with off topic content is prohibited. To inform others about products or columns you've found interesting is one thing but to direct our users to different boards/sites for the same purpose as what notjustmommies offers is plain rude. If you do this you will be warned, have the posts removed and if it continues then you will be banned.
Links. NotJustMommies.com is not responsible for the content on other pages that has been provided by links from within individual postings.
9) User Id & Passwords. You are solely responsible for your ID and password. We are not responsible for the use of your account by third parties if you so wish to release this information to them.
In order to keep this a healthy environment we need to enforce these few rules and hope that no others will need to be added. As long as posters understand their right, as well as all others, to post their own opinions and know that not everyone will necessarily agree, but keep the debates respectful, then this will become a wonderful unique community.
Thanks and happy posting!
TT, Tanya and Wendy
