Welcome to the board!

Before you get started here are some ground rules to follow. Trust that we are not trying to limit your imagination. But we would like to respect everyone here.

1. Do not give your password out to friends or family, or anyone else, even if they like reading the board. They can sign up for an account if they want to read. Husbands/wives are ok, but please try not to give your account info to anyone else. This is a private board for a reason. We like to know everyone who is reading and participating so that we can say whatever we want and not have to worry about random people reading.

2. You are not required to post (though we would LOVE for everyone to participate!). However, every two months we will be doing a purge of our users. At the end of every other month we will be posting a list of all users who have not posted at all in the last 60 days. If you are on that list you have ONE WEEK to respond to let us know that you’d still like to remain a member. If you do not respond one of two things will happen:

a. If you are a “member” you will be bumped down to “guest” and will only be able to post to the Public (Main) board. You will have to request to be approved again. If you do not post in the next 60 day period you will be deleted.

b. If you are NOT a “member” your account will be deleted.

3. There is no censorship on this board. However, please be courteous to others as you would want them to be to you. (Remember the Golden Rule, everyone!) While we will not block you from posting pictures of anything and everything and we will let you say whatever you want, please keep in mind that we are all mommies and may have children around who can see the posts. As well, some of us read the board at work. If your post contains an image or anything that might not be safe for children or work, please state that in the SUBJECT LINE.

4. Hot topics or debates will come up from time to time. Please post all debates in the Debate board. After all that is what it's there for. Debate a topic all you want but please do not attack people whose opinions you do not agree with. Remember that we are all very different and we each choose to live our lives in our own way. While you do not have to agree with the way someone chooses to live their life or raise their child, you must (in most situations) be respectful of it.

5. With this many women in one place, “drama” is bound to occur. If a thread gets out of hand or if someone makes any comment that an admin feels is out of line, the admin reserves the right to remove the thread without warning (though a warning will more than likely be given first).

6. If you have an issue with a certain person, please notify that person by PM or notify an admin and resolve it privately. If you try to resolve it publicly you will probably just be asking for “drama.”

7. Please do not give out your email address, phone number, physical address in any forum. If you must give out this information, please do so in PM.

8. If you notice any odd activity on the message board, or if you suspect someone isn’t who they say they are, please notify an admin immediately.

9. Last but not least…HAVE FUN!
