Hello All-

We would like to inform you that the site forums are currently undergoing spring cleaning and organization. You may have noticed that thread titles have been altered, numerous posts have been deleted, and threads have been moved into other forums or merged into previous threads. This has been done in order to improve the functionality of LoveShack.org for its users. We hope that through our efforts, users will see the importance of following the Community Guidelines and strive to self-manage in ways that are appropriate for this website.

We continue to encourage you to:

• Use as many words as possible to accurately title New Threads, so that they describe the issue at hand. Titles should be descriptive enough to inform users about the circumstance before reading the entire post. Titles lacking in description will be altered.
• Attempt to keep posts On-Topic in accordance with the original post. Remembering to start another thread to discuss a new topic will improve the usability of the forums, as well as benefit the original poster and other users who have similar issues. Posts which run off-topic will be removed.
• Continue using the Private Message function to address other users, rather than posting personal comments in an open forum. Personal comments include any language, directed toward any user, which does not directly reflect the original post. Comments addressing a users avatar, how you personally feel about the user, and the like will be removed.
• Be mindful of which particular forum new topics are posted within. It is important that threads be placed within the appropriate forum for a number of reasons. Doing so improves functionality and usability, allows for an increased number of responses, decreases user confusion, etc. Threads posted within the wrong forum will be moved to the appropriate forum.

We also encourage all users to continue being active participants in the community by using the "Alert Us" button in order to call our attention to posts which violate LoveShack.org Guidelines. By doing this, you are helping to maintain the site's functionality, and encouraging its positive atmosphere.

I wish you all the best,
Ainsley
