I am reprising, with one amendment, an old thread:
Be Nice!
Just a word to everyone, new and old.
When someone new comes, be nice to them. Assume the best until proven otherwise. Do not assume anyone has bad intentions, is someone else "in disguise" or is a bad person just because you do not yet know them. And if there is someone here - even someone who has been here a long time - that you do not like, then please avoid that person's threads, or at least try to look at each one as a new start. People learn, people grow, and we can help each other do so!
Pet Talk is meant to be a friendly, welcoming place. We are all here because we love animals, love pets. Let us extend that to our fellow human beings, and be kind to each other.
If you are thinking of posting something unkind or hurtful, remember, that may be the first impression someone will get of Pet Talk.
I am not saying we cannot have heartfelt discussions, debates or disagreements, I am just saying we should be polite when we do. I wish everyone should treat each other with respect, even if you do not feel it in your heart.
I want Pet Talk to be the happiest place for pet-loving people it can be!
