Forum rules and no-advertising policy

As a participant on this forum, it is your responsibility to know and follow our rules. Please read this message in its entirety.

Board Rules

1. You’re responsible for what you say.
As outlined in Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, The Chronicle of the Horse and its affiliates, as well Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd., the developers of vBulletin, are not legally responsible for statements made in the forums.

This is a public forum viewed by a wide spectrum of people, so please be mindful of what you say and who might be reading it—details of personal disputes are likely better handled privately. While posters are legally responsible for their statements, the moderators may in their discretion remove or edit posts that violate these rules. Users have the ability to modify or delete their own messages after posting, but administrators generally will not delete posts, threads or accounts upon request.

Outright inflammatory, vulgar, harassing, malicious or otherwise inappropriate statements and criminal charges unsubstantiated by a reputable news source or legal documentation will not be tolerated and will be dealt with at the discretion of the moderators.

Credible threats of suicide will be reported to the police along with identifying user information at our disposal, in addition to referring the user to suicide helpline resources such as 1-800-SUICIDE or 1-800-273-TALK.

2. Conversations in horse-related forums should be horse-related.
The forums are a wonderful source of information and support for members of the horse community. While it’s understandably tempting to share information or search for input on other topics upon which members might have a similar level of knowledge, members must maintain the focus on horses.

3. Keep conversations productive, on topic and civil.
Discussion and disagreement are inevitable and encouraged; personal insults, diatribes and sniping comments are unproductive and unacceptable. Whether a subject is light-hearted or serious, keep posts focused on the current topic and of general interest to other participants of that thread. Utilize the private message feature or personal email where appropriate to address side topics or personal issues not related to the topic at large.

4. No advertising in the discussion forums.
Posts in the discussion forums directly or indirectly advertising horses, jobs, items or services for sale or wanted will be removed at the discretion of the moderators. Use of the private messaging feature or email addresses obtained through users’ profiles for unsolicited advertising is not permitted.

Company representatives may participate in discussions and answer questions about their products or services, or suggest their products on recent threads if they fulfill the criteria of a query. False "testimonials" provided by company affiliates posing as general consumers are not appropriate, and self-promotion of sales, ad campaigns, etc. through the discussion forums is not allowed.

Paid advertising is available on our classifieds site and through the purchase of banner ads. The tightly monitored Giveaways forum permits free listings of genuinely free horses and items available or wanted (on a limited basis). Items offered for trade are not allowed.

Advertising Policy Specifics
When in doubt of whether something you want to post constitutes advertising, please contact a moderator privately in advance for further clarification. Refer to the following points for general guidelines:

Horses – Only general discussion about the buying, leasing, selling and pricing of horses is permitted. If the post contains, or links to, the type of specific information typically found in a sales or wanted ad, and it’s related to a horse for sale, regardless of who’s selling it, it doesn’t belong in the discussion forums.

Stallions – Board members may ask for suggestions on breeding stallion recommendations. Stallion owners may reply to such queries by suggesting their own stallions, only if their horse fits the specific criteria of the original poster. Excessive promotion of a stallion by its owner or related parties is not permitted and will be addressed at the discretion of the moderators.

Services – Members may use the forums to ask for general recommendations of trainers, barns, shippers, farriers, etc., and other members may answer those requests by suggesting themselves or their company, if their services fulfill the specific criteria of the original post. Members may not solicit other members for business if it is not in response to a direct, genuine query.

Products – While members may ask for general opinions and suggestions on equipment, trailers, trucks, etc., they may not list the specific attributes for which they are in the market, as such posts serve as wanted ads.

Event Announcements – Members may post one notification of an upcoming event that may be of interest to fellow members, if the original poster does not benefit financially from the event. Such threads may not be “bumped” excessively. Premium members may post their own notices in the Event Announcements forum.

Charities/Rescues – Announcements for charitable or fundraising events can only be made for 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organizations. Special exceptions may be made, at the moderators’ discretion and direction, for board-related events or fundraising activities in extraordinary circumstances.

Occasional posts regarding horses available for adoption through IRS-registered horse rescue or placement programs are permitted in the appropriate forums, but these threads may be limited at the discretion of the moderators. Individuals may not advertise or make announcements for horses in need of rescue, placement or adoption unless the horse is available through a recognized rescue or placement agency or government-run entity or the thread fits the criteria for and is located in the Giveaways forum.

5. Do not post copyrighted photographs unless you have purchased that photo and have permission to do so.

6. Respect other members.
As members are often passionate about their beliefs and intentions can easily be misinterpreted in this type of environment, try to explore or resolve the inevitable disagreements that arise in the course of threads calmly and rationally.

If you see a post that you feel violates the rules of the board, please click the “alert” button (exclamation point inside of a triangle) in the bottom left corner of the post, which will alert ONLY the moderators to the post in question. They will then take whatever action, or no action, as deemed appropriate for the situation at their discretion. Do not air grievances regarding other posters or the moderators in the discussion forums.

Please be advised that adding another user to your “Ignore” list via your User Control Panel can be a useful tactic, which blocks posts and private messages by members whose commentary you’d rather avoid reading.

7. We have the right to reproduce statements made in the forums.
The Chronicle of the Horse may copy, quote, link to or otherwise reproduce posts, or portions of posts, in print or online for advertising or editorial purposes, if attributed to their original authors, and by posting in this forum, you hereby grant to The Chronicle of the Horse a perpetual, non-exclusive license under copyright and other rights, to do so.

8. We reserve the right to enforce and amend the rules.
The moderators may delete, edit, move or close any post or thread at any time, or refrain from doing any of the foregoing, in their discretion, and may suspend or revoke a user’s membership privileges at any time to maintain adherence to the rules and the general spirit of the forum. These rules may be amended at any time to address the current needs of the board.

Please see our full Terms of Service and Privacy Policy for more information.

Thanks for being a part of the COTH forums!

          ET...that was just rude. Your mother would be appalled at that graceless remark.
          If you're going to have fun making humorous comments on anything to do with GM, riding, or anything else that fries your cookies, then have at it. But as another Realtor like Norsire...we all need to have our faces in our advertising...and we all need to advertise. It's called name/face recognition and usually we're pretty sensitive at having to have our mugs out there for everyone to gawk at. And since you're keeping your mug and action photos out of this thread, then consider not making masty remarks to those who have posted pictures by the request of others.

                Electric Tape, I was just saying where photos of me could be found, as I have nothing to hide. I was not advertising here at all, just responding to where to find photos.
                Thanks Mistyblue for your comments. Mistyblue is so right about having your photo out there for everyone to see with your face on signs everywhere. There are alot of sick people out there, who could see your photo and stalk you. Realtors are always getting training on safety for this very reason. ET have a great evening! Fullmoon Fever, great photo lady!!! I would have never imagined you like that after hearing all about your freezer stories!!!

                  Thanks. *blushing smiley*

                  It's the looks that makes them drop their guard. To contrast, I should put a pic of what I really look like....NOT. I'm not having any new photos until I lose the damn weight I gained. I swear I can hear my horses groaning when they know I'm thinking of riding.

                    Ok, here's me, and my horse.... (I don't have any pictures of me ON the horse, which is weird, actually..)

                    Me!

                    My favorite guy...

                    Napping...

                      Wow, WingedPanda you're very cute!! And your horse is JUST adorable!!

                      *sniff* I luv the Avery pic. Could he BE any sweeter?? (It's okay, Liz ...we believe you that he's satan's spawn...suuuuuurrree )

                      Janet & Belle are just as lovely in person too! tle & Pixie Dust's pics are always fun to see...but maybe I'm just partial to all the cool eventers.

                      And Erin has posted her personal pic before (a wedding I think, back when she used to play with us ). She's really pretty.

                          Hey, I still play! Well, when I'm not refereeing between warring breeders or answering email from wacko people who want to sue us...

                          Here's a pic of me with my best friend's baby back in November: Erin and Joseph.

                          And for the heck of it, since I went on a scanning binge a few weeks ago and got a ton of old horsey pictures scanned in, here's one of me and my old guy at USPC combined training championships in Lexington in 1989: Erin and Rocky

                          And no, my cross-country colors are NOT the lovely combination of red, yellow and blue... we had to wear our region's colors, which were red and yellow. And my colors are blue and white, hence the blue vest. We sure were easy to spot out there!

                          Hey Serendipity, there are your "new" Ulster boots again!

                                      I've always wanted to see pictures of Bumpkin (I've seen some but give us more!), Lord Helpus and Valor, Weatherford, Inverness, Liverpool (where have those two gone?), RAyers, deltawave, Velvet (if just to pin down how old you really are...somedays you make it sound like you're in your early thirties, others like your 50-something)....

                                      Basically, I want to see pictures from people who aren't very forthcoming with them.
