Posted: Tue Nov 11, 2008 3:45 pm

We are happy you have decided to join with us on this board. As highly as we would like to hold all our members , it is of utmost importance that our Members understand the RULES of the board. As with any open forum there is always room for social debate. But there comes a time when you get one whom crosses the line of being social to harassing and this sort of behavior WILL NOT be tolerated on this board. As is the breed of GSD's diverse, so will be the members. The difference in views in opinions are encouraged in discussions , all we ask is that all members show a valid amount of respect toward one another. If there are problems arising, you may point these out through the administration and we will take the steps neccessary to resolve the problem best we can or as we see fit. If no resolve can be made through this board than it will be determined that the involving parties take their issues elsewhere and not subject the rest of the board to their personal conflicts. As this is an OPEN forum we cannot be held responsible to every action or words written by other members. We ask that NO MEMBER come onto this board and purposely write derrogatory or false statements about other members in order to disrespect or demoralize another member publicly. As best we will try and monitor the board, at times there will be something we miss. Please feel free to point it out so we can all work together in keeping this board respectful and open for everyones enjoyment.

**As we want to try and be fair to all ...we post these rules for everyone. We see every member as being equal on this board. After all we are all here for the same reason, and so we hope. Use these rules as a guideline as to what is acceptable and what is not. If you feel you can't adhere to what is acceptable and what is not then maybe you should be a member elsewhere. But for the majority of our members I'm sure we can make this a great site! As time goes on a few changes may be applied to rules. We will be sure to keep the members updated as things progress. Thankyou
