Re: OH my god what have I done?

No, your account isn't going to be deleted. If you don't want to continue posting here, I'm sorry to hear it, but it's really as simple as not doing so, and there's no reason to have your account deleted to accomplish that.

It's extremely childish that you've decided to make such a petty matter public, and as I told you in private message, it's as simple as reading the rules and making an effort at following them. I'm sure there are many members who, like you, have a learning disability or other impairment, as well as many for whom English is not a first language, and they manage just fine.

I find it extremely coincidental that for your flouncing post you're seemingly able to follow the guidelines for capitalization and grammar without any issue but find it impossible otherwise.

The forum rules exist as they do to keep this forum as clean and easy to read as possible, considering it's an adult level, international forum. The rules on photos of pet store cages or outdoor hutches exist because the owner of this site has worked long and hard to spread the word on the value of appropriately sized and placed cages to give the little animals we all love the best lives possible, and that does not include a pet store cage, so photos are not allowed in the galleries. If you can't or don't respect the rules, that's your business, but there's no reason to try to change it or share with everyone how ridiculous you think it is. It's all been said before.

You aren't the first and you won't be the last to have a photo deleted or be asked to capitalize your words where appropriate. You also aren't the first to make it a public issue, and this forum will go on just fine whether or not you find it's to your liking. The point is to give our guinea pigs the best that we can, and if you can't be troubled to find the shift key and use it so that your guinea pigs might have a better life by the information you'd gain by staying, then I don't know what to tell you.

Should you change your mind, you're welcome to pop back in, as this forum will still be here, over-moderated as it is.
