    I'm very glad to see this new board!!!

    I'm certainly not offended by the name, and I do get the joke behind it ... but I think it is going to be confusing to new people. On several other pet boards that I post to "The Dog House" is the name of the board to talk about .... dogs. I think lots of people are going to be coming here wondering why we aren't talking about dogs in here.

    How about "The Soapbox" ... as in "Uh-oh, look, Twisterdog is getting up on her soapbox again!"
    "We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam

    "We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle

    "All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien

    They're not all "soapbox" type posts, that's why! I doubt new folks will be confused, as they will see "Today's Dog," "Dog Health," "Dog General," "Dog Rescue," etc. up at the top of the forums list, and this is at the bottom, and the first post in it is the explanation of what it is.

    I think Dog House and it's explanation on the thread are fine
    just the way it is, but maybe stuff like "poop cake" need to
    be in a Section called "Out House".

    I also think that this is a great idea since I don't like to get involved with controversial topics.

    I like this new forum, it will help keep the others cleaner.

    The other bbs I frequent did the same thing. They simply called their new forum

    I think this is a great idea! I just hope that people respect that this is a place for contraversial topics so don't be offended or handle it in an adult manner if you are offended by others opinions. We are all entitled to our own opinions and this is the area to post those opinions.

    Great Idea

    ~Rachel
    If you're listening to this song
    You may think the chords are going wrong
    But they're not
    We just wrote it like that

    When you're listening late at night
    You may think the band are not quite right
    But they are, they just play it like that

    It doesn't really matter what chords I play
    What words I say or time of day it is
    As it's only a Northern song

    It doesn't really matter what clothes I wear
    Or how I fare or if my hair is brown
    When it's only a Northern song

    If you think the harmony
    Is a little dark and out of key
    You're correct, there's nobody there

    And I told you there's no one there

    ~The Beatles
