Welcome to Roaming Guineas Forum.
We would like to keep this a friendly guinea pig forum where you can discuss problems, share experiences of keeping guinea pigs and posting photographs.
Everyone is very welcome to use this forum however we are a rescue friendly board so please could you keep discussions about intentional showing to other forums. Breeding however is acceptable as there is no problem with cute little baby piggies being born!
General Posting
Please treat all members with respect politeness. If you have different views to another member of the forum, please remain civil and not be abusive in any way.
When giving out advice, please ensure that the information/advice you are giving is correct. If you are unsure, it is best to say so instead of giving incorrect information which could cause harm to a guinea pig. None of the forum members are professional vets and would ask that if you you seek urgent medical advice so contact your vet.
The Roaming Guineas Forum is moderated. If the forum admin or moderators feel as though any of the posts are inappropriate, we reserve the right to edit and delete posts. If inappropriate posts are still being posted, you could either be suspended from the forum or even banned.
You are given the option to edit your posts. This is only for if you see mistakes/wrong web links etc. Please do not edit large content of posts which replies have been made to as this can make it difficult for members to follow/understand the thread.
Please do not double post. If you are posting about the same thing, please keep it to one post instead of starting a new one. This enables members to read through everything which has been posted, instead of missing any vital information. Also when posting, make sure that you are posting the message in the best topic it fits in. Any posts which we feel to be in the wrong board will be moved.
Use correct English when posting on this forum. It is hard for some members to understand "text chat" so for example instead of writing "u" please type "you".
Block capitals should only be used when writing a positive messages for example "CONGRATULATIONS". Please do not block caps for all of your post as it indicates to people that you are shouting.
Posting New Topics
Please can you make sure that you include an appropriate subject for your new topic. This helps members when looking for specific posts instead of having to work there way through thousands of posts. The forum staff (admin/global moderators) can edit any subject which is felt not to be relating to the topic posted.
Please do not make multiple threads about the same topic. In the case of a health question being asked, it will be harder for members to look through separate topics of all details concerning the guinea pig. This could also lead to somebody answering a question to a situation/question which has already been dealt with.
All new topics should be posted in the correct board for example a health question should be posted in the Health and Illness Board and posting about your pet rabbit should be posted in Other Pets. The General Guinea Pig Chat board is to talk about anything relating to guinea pigs. The Chit Chat board is to talk about absolutely anything you like. If you are unsure whether you have posted a message in the correct board, please PM the admin/global moderators and we will be able to decide and move if it is infact in the wrong board.
Advertising
Please do not post advertising other websites/forums via PM/Email.
Photos
Do not post images which are bigger than 100x100. This limit has been set because it stretches the page for people using smaller monitors. If members continuously keep posting images larger than the limit, this could result in a temporary ban.
Images which we feel are classed as indecent will be removed.
All photos should be posted in the Introduce your guinea pig's board. If you are talking about something in another board and would like to post a photo which is to do with the subject you are talking about, you are more than welcome to post it in other boards.
Please Note: The admin/moderators or forum members cannot be responsible for any problems which may arise from posts which have been put on this message board. If you can see a post which is incorrect or could cause harm please bring it to the attention of the admin or moderators and we will assess whether it should be deleted from the forum
We can add or change any guidelines to this thread at anytime so please keep coming back to keep yourself updated.
