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!

                My trainer has suggested that perhaps my own new horse would be wonderful for my daughter. lol She needs a new larger horse, and my own is showing signs of being a very nice hunter. should be interesting. I'm quite proud actually.

                  Gunnar here, good news. The surgery seems to be a sucess. Sorry for the delay but they did not call me untl 8:00 last night. I could not get on line this AM as my hubby was working, qoute, unquote. I took the day off from work today to go see Bodie. He is already home. The surgeon found torn cartilage and strectched ligaments etc. He was able to clean up everything and expects he will have a full recovery, Thank God. I was so worried. They didn't call me for 7 hours or so. I am relieved that they were able to find the injury as we did not know what we would find. Bodie has been lame for 6 months today and the Insurance probably will not pay so yahoo the money tree must be in bloom.

                  Thansk for all the jingles . Bodie and I loff you all.

                  How is the riding? I get to ride another horse this weekend so I will at least be reriding.

                  Have fun.

                          Cross your fingers and send postive thoughts, I've got a show this weekend. My goal, to achieve some level of success above 'weak'.

                              Thanks for the jingles and good luck. Bodie will be off at least 6 more weeks and then can start back. Slowly but surely I am sure. He is so fat after no work for so long. Poor boy is on a diet.

                              Regalbeagle- go get em the show. be strong!!!

                                Gunnar - great news!! I'm very happy to hear the surgery went well. You'll be re-riding Bodie in no time!

                                Irish Ei's - Ouch! Good for you for dusting yourself off and carrying on.

                                Zenning RegalBeagle - Go show em what you've got! Best of luck!

                                I have a lesson update. We had our best jump school yet! However, I'm experiencing a rude awakening as to just how much I've lost of what I once had. For example, we jumped a 4 stride broken line - outside to diagonal. Three times I missed the turn to the second fence. I feel like I'm in slow motion. My reflexes are so out of shape! Finally, on the fourth try, I got the turn and had no issues after that. We jumped a little course and had a great time. Next week we might actually have a lesson outside!

                                  Hey Jakeable, I understand. How can 2 or 3 strids have gone by before you started turning, etc. So funny how when watching someone else it seems there is so much time and space until it is our turn and we screw up that bending line. I live in the eq ring so bending lines are my nemisis. My horse has a huge stride and I over adjust sometimes. Keep working on where you are in a bending line. 2 strides and then 2 strides. Look for those strides. Yah, Yah. Yah. I look for every stride Ha ha ha.

                                  Glad you had fun..

                                    RegalBeagle It worked. Only rode 'til I felt like I was loose, slipping, pitching and leaning. No point in asking for trouble when you're too sore to fix it. Probably only 20-30 min. I am still somewhat sore but nowhere near being as crippled as I was yesterday

                                      Hey everyone, I got to take a lesson on a horse in our barn. I usually do not like to ride this guy but I am desparate. I was brave and rode him yesterday and was sore but today did the flat part of the lesson and actually jumped a little. I have never jumped him because he like to buck after the jump which I hate more than anything. Bodie is huge and can leap, spin, run off etc but he is not a bucker persay. It has been 6 months since I have ridden so I am sore.. but a good sore. Yeah.

                                      Bodie is doing great. Knee surgery seems not to bother him too much. I am relieved and cannot wait for him to be better.

                                      What is up with the clique???

                                        Hi Steph, glad to hear Bodie is faring well and Irish Ei's I'm glad to hear you dusted yourself off and got back to business. Get this, I had my FIRST English lesson today. Huge milestone for me coming off almost two years of Western lessons. It felt great to post in a saddle with no pesky horn and the saddle, granted a cheap one, felt so comfortable. Now I get it!!

We often argue about anything horse, so we were both suprised and happy it worked out. Seems like I'm getting my monies worth with her lessoning. lol.
