Welcome to the Skye Terrier Club Forum, we hope that you will enjoy connecting with other Skye owners and enthusiasts through our boards, but please be aware that there are a few ground rules that all members should abide by.
All new memberships to this forum are monitored and all (and I do mean ALL) posts will be checked by our Admins. If it is felt that you have contravened any of the above the following procedure will be followed:
We would very much like to keep this forum as open as possible but that can only happen if all members abide by these simple ground rules. This is a place for sharing information and connecting with other Skye owners and we would like it to remain a friendly and inviting place to spend some virtual time.
Go forth and post! Just watch out for those Admins...
- Be polite and courteous to other users at all time. This is a forum for the sharing of information and all opinions and posts are equally valid.
- Please do not use profanities, swears or curse words in your posts. This is a family friendly forum and inappropriate language will not be tolerated (don't even think about replacing some letters with ! or * to bypass the filters, our Admins will catch you!).
- Please be respectful of all members of the global Skye terrier community, at all times, regardless of whether they use this forum or are members of The Skye Terrier Club. Although we encourage members to post their opinions on the topics features on this forum, personal judgements against individual people, kennels or dogs will not be tolerated.
- Please do not offer or ask for critiques of your own, or another person's dogs through this forum.
- The 'Puppies' board is not a 'For Sale' arena. Do not 'advertise' on this board. You are welcome to post details of your past, current or planned litters but correspondence relating to the sale or exchange of puppies must be conducted privately (a 'contact XXX for further details' clause is acceptable). The Skye Terrier Club aims to make puppy buyers aware of who has litters available, we are NOT a third-party merchant.
- In line with (v) puppies/litters featured on the 'Puppies' board are not endorsed by The Skye Terrier Club in any way.
All new memberships to this forum are monitored and all (and I do mean ALL) posts will be checked by our Admins. If it is felt that you have contravened any of the above the following procedure will be followed:
- The offending post will be either edited (in the case of a swear word, for example) or deleted (flaming/spamming/selling).
- The person who made the post will be contacted privately and told why the post has been edited/deleted. They will be issued with a First Warning.
- If the offence is repeated the member will receive a Second Warning and all posts will be moderated before appearing on the boards.
- If the offence is repeated a third time the member will be blocked from posting to the forum. Depending on the severity of the offence, this block may be permanent: this is at the discretion of the Admins.
We would very much like to keep this forum as open as possible but that can only happen if all members abide by these simple ground rules. This is a place for sharing information and connecting with other Skye owners and we would like it to remain a friendly and inviting place to spend some virtual time.
Go forth and post! Just watch out for those Admins...
