Hello everyone,

We have some updated rules for this month, and moving forward.

Regarding user avatars and profile pictures, we ask that you please adhere to some rules:

1) Please do not use a personal photo of yourself.

Partners and SO's may think nothing of using a snapshot of themselves, but may not realize that their photo could be suggestive or problematic for the PA's on this site. Please be understanding.

2) Please do not use any image that may be considered a trigger for other members.

This is a safe place, let's keep it that way. If you want to use a photo of someone else ( a celebrity, musician, sports star, etc.) please be very careful that it is not offensive or revealing in any way. Please be sensitive to the other members here!

3) In you user profile, please do not link to any page (ie. myspace, etc.) that may cause other users to click out of curiosity and cause them to be triggered.

Let's take an extra step here and be really safe for the sake of everyone here who is working hard.

Regarding registration:

1) Please do not use your first and last name as your username.

It's ok to use your first, or last, or an abbreviation or combination, but to avoid privacy issues please do not register with your first and last name. This is a simple step you can take to protect yourself, as your username is visible on every post you make.

2) Please do not use your email address for your username.
