Policy Change

[Stacy White]

Lately, there has been a drastic rise in members expressing concerns over their treatment on the forums. There are a few actions we take to address this problem that you may or may not have noticed. One that should be very apparent is that this problem is never publicly addressed on the Board by the forum staff. Another action taken, that some of you may have experienced, while others may well sense is happening, is that many problems are, in fact, addressed behind the scenes by the forum staff. In a majority of these instances, every effort is made to reach a peaceful understanding of the rules and guidelines. To a great extent we succeed; on the few occasions we either fail, or experience a blatant disregard for the rules and guidelines, harsher action is warranted.

In light of the above, we will institute the following policy changes. Should you have a problem with your participation on the Board, do not post it on the forums, email your concerns to <A HREF=mailto:comments@rottweiler.net>comments@rottw eiler.net</A> . Any post or topic that in any way negatively discusses another member, or group of members, anonymously or not, will be immediately deleted, with no notification to the originator. Simply put, this Board was never, ever, set up to air character assasinations of each other. These forums are dedicated to the betterment of the Rottweiler breed.
