I've been a member of this forum for years and have always appreciated how the moderators keep the forum running smoothly. A few days ago I received an invitation to join another guinea pig forum via Facebook. Up until then, the only two forums I follow is this one and Guinea Lynx. Since I thought it would be fun to confer with other guinea pig owners I decided to join. Within just a few days I realized how different forums can be. Let me add, I'm an adult woman and I'm not a goody-goody but I was shocked at the amount of vulgarity that they allowed from their posters. It seemed that any and all four-letter words were permitted. I admit I was a little shocked to see this from a forum that is dedicated to guinea pigs. Since they allowed members of all ages it seemed out of place to not have some rules that kept the forum a little more age appropriate.
I know at times, I've seen members here complain about not being allowed to speak their minds or being banned for not following the rules. After viewing that particular forum I have a new appreciation for the moderators of Guinea Pig Cages who keep this forum appropriate and kid-friendly.
Thank you for all the work that you do to keep this a nice place to visit.
