We have just initiated a drive to bring this forum back to the way we had it - and better, even if that means that the site's activity is halved!
When you register you receive an notification email that contains links to our rules and guidelines. If you havn't read them and you don't want any suprises do yourself a favour, take some time and read them. That is no longer our problem, we're making it yours from now on so disregard them if you want to find out what happens.
I am not going to go into what we are looking for before we restrict user's permissions, preservation of your user's permission set will be testament to your very own good judgement. I must add a hint though, make sure you post using proper english spelling, punctuation and grammar. If you are posting from a handheld and cannot do so then do yourself a favour and mention that! Here's another one, don't post because you can, especially in informative topics. If you have nothing to contribute, just shut up. Saying nothing won't get you into trouble.
I'm expecting a glut of newcomers to the restricted permissions group (the usernames in blue) in the near future, especially now that Bushbaby has worked out how to use that admin function

If you find yourself in the restricted permissions group you may still post via approval by a moderator, if your conduct improves to our satisfaction we will re-instate your original permission set.
Be advised that we are not obligated to explain our actions as administrators, if we don't like something about the content you post or something in your profile, something will be done about it.
We must also re-iterate that we do not tolerate illegal activity on this forum. We will continue our endeavour to guide the misinformed to the correct course of action but if we have substantial proof of blatant illegal activity on this site, all perpetrators will be reported to the authoroties and banned completely and immediately.
If you feel that this forum does not meet your needs, then please, feel free to try some of the other online reptile communities.
Enough said.
