Rules and Etiquette on the Forum. Please read.
« on: February 19, 2019, 07:01:26 PM »
The Ameraucana Breeders Club is pleased to offer this forum for our members, as well as our frequent guests, for research, to ask questions (members only), and discuss the world of Ameraucanas. In order for us to continue this forum into the future, we ask that you follow a few simple rules.
1.   Remember we are here for our Ameraucanas. Please keep your posts related to them.
2.   We are also here for the Ameraucana Breeders Club, so keep your posts free from references to other breed clubs, whether negative or positive. We see enough negativity on FB and other social media sites and don’t need to bring it here.
3.   The ABC is growing, and with that diversity of location, personalities, and background, comes also a diversity of likes, dislikes, preferences, and ways of doing things.  We can disagree and still maintain a level of civility.
4.   Absolutely no name-calling, bashing, slanderous, inflammatory or otherwise hateful and disrespectful posts will be tolerated in the forum. We need to put special emphasis on this rule, as posts violating it will be removed and the poster may be banned from the forum for a period of time. Repeat and/or particularly virulent offenders may be removed from the forum, and even the Club, permanently.
All members of the Board of Directors are Administrators for this forum and all have the same ability and authority to remove posts seen as violating the above rules, especially #4, at their discretion.  All deleted posts are held in a Recycle bin, so other Admins may review the action taken, until they are permanently deleted.
