Hello Everyone,
Recently many members of the community have been voicing their displeasure with the direction the community is heading. This thread is not to single anyone out and as far as I'm concerned, what is done is done. This is a simple reminder to everyone!
If a post makes you angry, upset or pissed off, then by all means voice your opinion, just do so in a respectful and constructive manner. Name calling, rudeness and other mean actions are not acceptable.
I fully realize that emotions are high and life is not great for a lot of us for one reason or another (economy/personal issues/life in general). However, that is not an excuse to lash out, be hateful, rude or belittle someone just because you have the luxury of anonymity.
There have been rules in place at Chazhound for a long time. They are located here: http://www.chazhound.com/forums/t27114/ I suggest that everyone, mods included, read ALL OF THE RULES again. They will be enforced for the greater good of the community, no exceptions!
Some important things to note:
1. I believe everyone should have a clean slate going forward. Forget what you have done or haven't done. It's in the past and the mods have been instructed to view everyone that way.
2. We all make Chazhound what it is. If this is a place you truly care for, then acting respectful shouldn't be too difficult. Try to imagine you are in a real life, face to face situation.
3. Starting March 1st, 2009 the rules that have been in place here for years, will be enforced.
Chazhound is a wonderful place full of love, support and caring! Everyone has a responsibility to keep it that way! This includes members, mods and owners.
