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!

    Really??? Now I don't see her saying anything about not taking medication to control her hepatitis!!! I can guarantee you that several types of animals were used in testing for it before it got FDA approval. I guess this instance its ok for the animals to be used?? It shouldn't be if she really cares!! But as usual.. do as I say.. not as I do!!!
    Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty & well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, totally worn out & proclaiming... WOW WHAT A RIDE!!!

        Thank you for posting that Mistyblue. Several years ago Ingrind newkirk was quoted as saying she did not really even like animals, just believe that people did not have the right to keep them as pets!

          In reality, the same ingredients have been being used in shampoos, cosmetics, etc. for decades, so animal testing has not been necessary for quite a while.

            I guess Pammy doesn't associate herself with ALL of the beliefs of PETA....especially since she recently had a 'wedding ceremony' for her two PET dogs on the beach. Oh, and to make it even more special, both dogs were decked out in 'wedding attire.' A pug in a wedding dress? Now that's animal cruelty!

              Now, I once saw a great bumpersticker at school: "PETA: People for the Eating of Tasty Animals" I'm pretty sure the car belonged to one of the Meats graduate students or professors.

                    I'm still trying to figure out why Pamela Anderson believes any of us CARES that she won't be at the Kentucky Derby.

                    Having come face to face with a PETA member at a horse show some years ago, I can say they scare me.

                    Yes, PETA is aware of the horse show world. Yes, it's just a matter of time till they come directly after us. And yes, they seem to have a complete and utter lack of understanding of the concept of domesticated animals vice wild animals. More frightening, they (at least the several I talked to) are determined to remain ignorant. There are those in that organization that believe a dog or a horse are better off dead than in a domestic environment.

                      I just wonder when she will take up the cause of all those poor little lab mice forced to wear implants so people like Pamela Anderson could be so ... outstanding in her field... Razz Razz Razz Razz

                      DMK, you should see the size of lab mice we had to genetically engineer to test PA's implants.

                          Coleent - I challenge you to read up on PETA from other sources than their website.

                          Tell me of any instance in which their leaders, and many of their employees, did not advocate for violence to achieve their political ends.

                          PETA doesn't like animals at all. They just hate people.

                          What funds PETA is misinformed animal lovers who actually think that organization advocates for animal welfare at all.

                          As for Pamela Anderson - well - talk about the gene pool needing a little chlorine...

                            I know you were, Huntertwo, but again, while Mrs. Sheehan may have begun to believe her own publicity a little too much, her initial issue is and was genuine, and anything that discomfits our appointed and insulated President is okay with me.

                              Pamela Anderson is boycotting the Kentucky Derby.

                              Last month, Kentucky Gov. Ernie Fletcher refused Anderson's request to have a bust of KFC founder Colonel Harland Sanders removed from the state Capitol.
                              Why doesn't she have her fake ones removed first? And her fake hair color. And her fake teeth. Hardly the best spokesperson for anything: someone who was put together in a plastic surgeon's office. Oops, they forgot to put a brain in her head.

                              Beware of the ultimate spin meisters - they are the biggest liars.

                                PETA=Nudist camp gone wild!! All these morons want to do is run around naked, showing off their fake boobs...they don't give a rats a$$ about animals...they make me sick.

                                    Why doesn't she have her fake ones removed first? And her fake hair color. And her fake teeth. Hardly the best spokesperson for anything: someone who was put together in a plastic surgeon's office. Oops, they forgot to put a brain in her head. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

                                    You mean to tell me NO one on this board has ever colored their hair, or has had plastic surgery, breast implant, teeth fixed?

                                    Maybe all the "Brain in her head" jokes are possibly out of envy?
                                    I for one wouldn't mind looking like her...

                                      wow ...if she could get any more fake, shed make apretty good barbie doll... seriosuly. Boycotting the derby? Im sure everyone will truly miss her. I think its nice that dshe cares, but i dont think the derby and its trainer are "forcing" the animals to race. thats what they have been bred to do, thsats what these animals love to do. If afleet alex didnt love winning and racing, he wouldnt have pricked his ears in the preakness finish line. If secretariat didnt enjoy racing asmuch as he did, he wouldnt have tookoff on his own and set an unbelievable record...seriosuly..if you havent seen the race...watch the video. You cant say the animals are abused. these horses are fed more food than you can believe, they are taken care of like kings and queens, they are checked by vets constantly. the horses of the derby are unbelievable well taken care of and love their jobs. I agree some parts of the racing industry needs some work, but still...boycotting the derby....yea, if she had never said anything, we would've never realized she wasnt around

                                        I think they [PETA] have done more to raise awareness regarding lab testing, factory farming and the fur trade than any other organization on the planet, 3 things I care deeply about.
                                        Actually, if memory serves, I believe "Bloom County" pretty much brought cosmetics testing on lab animals down. Quite handily. While being not especially flattering to PETA. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
                                        In reality, the same ingredients have been being used in shampoos, cosmetics, etc. for decades, so animal testing has not been necessary for quite a while.

                                        Sarabeth, Bloom County had an extremely funny and successful campaign against testing of cosmetics on lab animals in the 80's. That is what I was referring to. So yes, you are correct. But so am I.

                                          Well, I for one certainly envy her income , but her looks? Sorry, I see nothing there to envy ... but obviously many MANY others beg to differ . . .
