-The Rules-

First and foremost, we ask that you respect all other mommies and their children! We do not tolerate any bigotry, hatred, or racist remarks. If you feel for some reason that you are being disrespected in such a way, please contact a site admin and it will be taken care of IMMEDIATELY!

Here are a few things we ask you to keep in mind while visiting our board:

-This is a family-oriented site and we'd like to keep it that way. We'd like to think of all of you as our extended family and we'd like for you to think of us as such too. Please keep that in mind when posting.

-After registering, you have until the end of the month that you joined to come back and post an introduction. If you do not post an introduction within that time frame, your username will be deactivated. We will be doing a sort of "clean out" at the end of each month. You will have to email an Administrator to have your username re-activated. This is to prevent lurkers and spammers. Lurking will not be tolerated at all! If you want to be part of the board, than post. If you don't, than don't register at all!

-Please don't mention other forums or post links that have message boards on them. Posts with such links or references will either be modified by a member of the staff or deleted altogether.

-You will notice that we have a picture section called "The Portrait Studio." It is restricted until your post count exceeds 50. We do this to prevent lurkers and perverts who browse message boards. This is for the safety of you and your children. Access has to be given manually so please notify a site admin or moderator and we will take care of it for you.

-Please watermark your photos. This is to prevent someone from stealing and claiming your photos as their own. There is a brief tutorial in the Technical Support forum if you are unsure about how to do it.

-Please do not post any pornographic (XXX) or nude pictures of anyone, yourself or your children. We ask that you cover up your children's genitals for such photos as in the bathtub. Please do not post any links to adult contented websites or material.

-Please do not spam yourself on MommyAndMore. This is a mother's message board, not a personal advertisement. If you are caught posting in order to spam, your post will be deleted and you will be given a warning. If you are caught doing it again, you will be banned. Spamming via private messaging will not be tolerated either. If this gets back to us, the same actions will take place. If you are sent a private message in which someone is spamming, quote it & send it to a site admin and it will be taken care of!

-Another thing that will not be tolerated is the faking of pregnancy or children. If you are found to be faking a pregnancy, the appropriate action will be taken. We are all real here and we want to keep it that way.

-Please remember that everyone on the board, including the site staff, has a life outside of the board. All of the site administrators and moderators have children and families. If something doesn't get taken care of right away, please don't get upset. Chances are we just haven't gotten around to it, we will though. Please be understanding and patient.

-Also, lets remember that everyone on the board is entitled to their own beliefs. Please do not try to push your beliefs or ideas onto any other member. You can make the suggestion but respect the response from the other members.


Thank you for taking the time to familiarize yourself with our rules. This should make each of your visits back to the site more enjoyable. Now please go ahead and post away! We all can't wait to get to know you! If you have any questions regarding the rules, feel free to PM one of the admin and we will be more than happy to help you out as much as possible!
