Things have been chaotic on this forum for the past few days, so let's clarify a few things.
The Camping forum, including the Camping Community Board, are part of the DISboards. The DISboards has guidelines that apply to ALL of our forums, which you can read here:
http://www.wdwinfo.com/guidelines.htm
There aren't really a lot of rules, most of them are the kind of thing we all learned in Kindergarten.
Play nice. Be polite to others. No profanity. It's not nice to be a bully.
And if don't have something nice to say, maybe you shouldn't say it at all.
If you're here, we hope it's because you enjoy talking about Disney and helping other people plan and enjoy their Disney trips. If you're not happy here, we hope you find another place that does suit your needs.
Yes, some posters have made some bad choices and found themselves no longer welcome here. Most of them have done this through hostility: bullying and insulting other posters or our moderators or webmasters.
If you bully or ridicule another poster, we'll consider this a personal attack and you'll find you're no longer welcome here. (Refer back to what you learned in Kindergarten, or to our guidelines.)
If you choose to disregard the direction of our moderators or webmasters, same thing.
If you tell me or any other webmaster to kiss your *** (as one poster here chose to do), you'll get a Fastpass out of here.
In the end, we're hearing and seeing that the Camping forum has not been as welcoming and inclusive of new posters or those not considered "in the clique" as we would like. There are a LOT of great people with lots of knowledge and the desire to participate and help others here. We will have an atmosphere that welcomes and values all these voices, and will act quickly to eliminate any outbursts of hazing or hostility.
If you have any comments or questions about our moderating or our policies, address those to the admin team through email at admin@wdwinfo.com.
If you're here to help make this a better place, thanks for sticking it out!
