SPAMMERS**PLEASE POST IN THIS THREAD ONLY ***
THIS MAKES IT EASIER FOR US TO REMOVE YOUR GARBAGE POSTINGS.
WE HAVE A DIRECTORY WHERE YOU CAN LIST YOUR PET RELATED BUSINESS.
HOWEVER, IF YOU CONTINUE TO DISREGARD OUR NOTICE ABOUT NOT SPAMMING, THEN YOU LEAVE US NO CHOICE BUT TO REMOVE YOU FROM OUR SYSTEM, AND CONTACT THE APPROPRIATE AUTHORITIES WHO MAY TAKE FURTHER ACTION.
Members, I'll share a little insight into my world as an Admin.
Someone joins 733 days ago...and posts once (today) 'inviting' everyone to come and check out their website...use their services... asking you to contact them via phone or e mail.
Do you know these people...didn't think so...so why would you contact someone you don't know, giving them the opportunity to have your contact info, for future spamming perhaps ?
Now, I don't know about you, but one posting in more than 2 years does not a 'Community' make  ...and even then it's a 'come to my website' type...nice... subtle as a train wreck buddy 
So, if you agree with my feelings on this, let me know, and if you don't...let me know 
I do this for you, the members, to try to prevent you from being spammed, scammed, and otherwise annoyed by people who's motives may be less than genuine.
Trust, Respect, & Integrity...cannot be bought, they have to be earned, I hope I have earned yours throughout the past 3 years.

OK, here's the deal.
I can't make it any plainer...there's a NOTICE on the HOME PAGE explaining why you are not allowed to post URL's or contact info on the forums, unless you are a RESCUE GROUP, a SHELTER, or a CHARITY...and only then, in the RESCUE GROUP FORUM and even then, it's at our discretion.
Everyone has agreed to the terms of service and I don't have to explain reasons why to anyone.
So, IF you do not wish to adhere to the rules...please go find some other site to spam.
The rest of us would really appreciate it.
Think about it...it's like you, and me, each owning a restaurant on the same block...I walk in and announce to everyone, "Hey, come check out my restaurant...here's the address..."
Also, when you are given a free listing under our DIRECTORY, why on earth would you disrespect our polite request, while at the time, have no respect for others posts, and bumping them down, by posting the same 'stuff' for want of a better expresssion, multiple times.
So, now, hopefully we can get back to trying to help the regular members who actually have something worth reading, and in some cases have a genuine question regarding how best to care for their Pet.
