              pixiemom,

              First, let me say that your family is just adorable.
              I was alerted to the fact that you had posted pix and names of the babies, and we have been trying to tighten up the site for the protection of underaged members and families of members as well. Thanks to awful internet surfers, unfortunately.

              So I am going to ask BB whether you should delete the pix of the babies or can leave it. I took out their names and inserted the word Edit already in your captions, plus I resized your photos for you. If the one of the babies is OK with BB, we can make it bigger again.

              FYI: to resize your photos, once you have uploaded them and inserted them, go into the body of the post and click the photo until you see little white boxes on the sides and corners of the picture. Just mouse click a corner white box, and drag it toward the middle of the photo. This will make it smaller, but keep the proportions correct.

                Oh sorry I guess I have to learn here. The pug board is so different and we have all become family so we all feel safe there so I guess it is much different from this board.
                I will just post pics of bunny here I guess.
                Sorry hope I did not start any trouble

                    It’s just when we have under age members here…under 18, they are not allowed to post photos of themselves — just their bunnies. But adults can post photos of their family members -kids etc. However, since this is not like facebook or myspace where you can set the privacy adjustments, everyone will be able to see the photos and so you just need to be careful with how much info you give about yourself. We don’t want to make anyone paranoid j(as we have not had any problems that we are aware of, but it’s just one of those things where feel it is necessary to remind members of some general net safety) 

                    With names, we just discourage first and last names.  And though it’s not against the rules, we normally will edit out first, inform the member of our cautions and then they can decide whether they want to put it back. 

                    If you still want to delete your photos, you click on edit and then highlight and delete, or we can, but if you want to keep them up that’s fine too. We have had other members also show their families as well. It is a personal choice — no rule for that. You can also put your daughters name in there, but I discourage that since again this is a public view forum and glad Pam edited out. It’s best just to say “My daughter”.

                    BTW:  What a beautiful little girl you have.  And adorable pugs!

                      Well, since it is okay, let me say that those pics are really nice. Beautiful pictures. I think it is so great when children grow up with pets, it teaches them compassion and empathy. Lucky little girl to have a mum who loves animals

                      How are the dogs taking Pixie?

                        Ok thanks…i will just leave as is and just stick to Pixie on here. I have been on the pug board for so long..it was a great board for years then all of a sudden people were becoming caddy and mean and going way off topic and not talking about our pugs that we love so much. One of the ladies on the board took it upon herself and opened up an “our pug board” on that site and she was in charge. She only let the people in that were truly in for the right reasons. We have about 40 of us on there and it is so peaceful and safe and we can post whatever we want. It is a fun place so I guess coming here I was thinking about the pug board which I should not have.
                        Anyway Pixie is doing really well with the pugs. One of my pugs just wants to sit there and protect her while the other is a ball of play and wants to play so we have only been letting him in there when he is on a leash. It is working out great!

                          So gorgeous! Are your girls quite close in age? pixiemom, you may find this board is alot like what you enjoy at the pug board. There is a real community feel. Part of the caution that RabbitPam and BinkyBunny have demonstrated here to me shows the protectiveness there is of our members (you included). It’s not a rap on the hands. It’s easy to have a sense that the only people posting replies are the only people seeing site content. It’s sad that we cannot freely share and enjoy parts of our lives because there are persons that have deviant intent out there that could take advantage. Unfortunately it’s part of the territory.

                          Oh and be careful even posting pics of Pixie…..there’s some notorious bun-napper lurking around here!   Ok, I take that back – post many many pics of her, she too pretty not to be seen.

                          BinkyBunny, I just wanted to clarify –
                           

                          With names, we just discourage first and last names. And though it’s not against the rules, we normally will edit out first, inform the member of our cautions and then they can decide whether they want to put it back.

                          So this is first & last names used together (i.e.use of full name) and you would edit out full names then notify?

                            Thanks!
                            I guess it is strange seeing people refer me to Pixiemom than my real name lol. On the pug board our username is our name so we use our real names. Just funny now I have call people by their username
                            Anyway yes my girls are very close in age 15 mo apart!
                            Also yes I will be posting many pics of Pixie…after all that is what I am here for :0 and to get info of course.

                              Haha! You can use your first name I would think. Mine is right there in my signature and others will often sign a post with their first name. I tend to use members screen names and first names intermittantly. Often we start to abbreviate each others screen names too. So I’m often called Jersey (who is my bunny) Jers or JG.

                                  Love the photos! Your daughters and puppies are so cute!

                                  It’s okay – you never know who can be lurking on forums …I think awhile ago BinkyBunny was telling us her cams were down cuz people hacked them and were trying to rotate them around the room. CREEEEEEEEEEPY. I think it was BB that this happened to, I could be wrong…but wow can you imagine?

                                    Thanks, Jersey (see? LOL) I really didn’t want to sound reprimanding, but felt I had better check with BB since we’re trying to be more cautious lately.
                                    Jerseygirl’s right about it being a very protective, safe feeling environment. We get rid of any creepy posts double quick, and discourage any flaming. So it does sound like your safe Pug board. However, it is not like Facebook, or paid, screened membership with blocking capability. (Except by BB when she is alerted.) You can get an idea of how many people sign on as members vs. how many actually post by checking out the Home page where the numbers are listed. I am fascinated by that when I’ve been jabbering away like I’m on some sort of group email to buddies and then all of a sudden I realize it’s a global broadcast to many, many more folks.

                                    What’s been lovely is the people who are bunny owners are just so, so nice. And we do play by the rules, which have been wisely set by BB. I am sometimes over cautious, which is why I left your beautiful pix but edited the names just in case. Better to be safe and stand corrected later (you can put them back in if you want to) than to put it out there for days at possible risk. Please feel welcome – am looking forward to hearing more about your family, with or without fur.

                                        Safety is always an issue, but . . .

                                        LizzieKnittyBun and I were recently joking about telling people that we met online. People are sceptical about ” How do you know the person is not a creep?”
                                        We respond “Oh come on, We meet on a bunny forum!”

                                        PixieMom – you family is adorable!

                                          lol I know you can never be too safe but like you said ” we met on a bunny board!” haha I laugh because one of the girls on the pug board that has been on for years too is the same age as me. I live in MA she lives in FL. I am a huge disney fan and we go 2x a year. This past Nov we decided to meet in person because we have got so close online. We met and it was so much fun. We are great friends now. She sends us bday gives and we send her gifts. I wish she lived closer. We are going back to disney this fall and we will meet up with her again!
