Welcome to our message boards! If you’d like to reply to an existing message, or create a new one, please JOIN and wait for an e-mail containing your personal username and password. We apologize that this may take several hours, meaning that you can’t begin to chat immediately. But our boards are free and you will be able to participate very soon. It’s worth the short wait.

Whether this is your first time online or you're a seasoned online user, we've spelled out our house rules for you here and very much appreciate your abiding by them. Generally speaking, these rules simply require respect, good manners and kindness. Use common sense and you'll feel right at home.

Our specific House Rules are:

Be friendly and courteous. Remember, this is a spiritual site, intended for communication with others in a loving, safe and inspirational environment. We hope to interest, help, inspire, enlighten and have fun. We expect our members to keep a harmonious atmosphere and treat each other with love and respect.

1. We live by words online. We believe that thoughts and therefore words, are living things. So we don't allow obscene, racist or sexually explicit language. Community members are also NOT permitted to post material that is abusive, harassing, hateful, threatening, defamatory, invasive of a person’s privacy, obscene, profane, knowingly false or inaccurate, or otherwise violating of any law. We reserve the right to remove postings that defame or insult anyone, and notes that are abusive or hateful. Any harassing notes or postings that might be construed as stalking will be deleted and made available to the proper law enforcement officials. We also reserve the right to remove notes that are off the subject.

2. Find a forum or chat that suits your needs and interests. And never be afraid to check out new topics.

3. No solicitations or advertisements are allowed. Such notes add clutter and devalue conversation. This includes advertisements for your business, the latest get-rich-quick scheme, solicitations for a charity, or any other type of business. Unfortunately, it is impossible to verify the validity of each and every organization that solicits donations. Therefore in an effort to protect Rosemaryaltea.com users from fraud, we must prohibit solicitations for charities.

4. You may not suggest or encourage illegal activity. Rosemaryaltea.com will assist law enforcement officials.

5. You must have copyright ownership of all material that you post on our bulletin boards and in our chats. No articles, recipes, song lyrics, art or graphics may be posted without the express written consent of the copyright holder.

6. You must respect the privacy of individuals. This means no posting of phone numbers, addresses, social security numbers or any other private information.

7. Good manners online means that you don't post the same note more than once. The online word for posting many times on one topic is "spamming." We don't allow that.

8. You participate at your own risk on the bulletin boards, in chat and in e-mail. You take responsibility for postings under your identification and use the information provided here at your own risk. Rosemaryaltea.com takes no responsibility for the content or opinions posted here.

9. Rosemaryaltea.com reserves the right to remove any postings (although it has no duty to do so).

10. By posting to any portion of Rosemaryaltea.com, you agree to abide Rosemaryaltea.com's Conditions of use.

11. Use your common sense and have a wonderful time at Rosemaryaltea.com. Communicate with Love and light,

Rosemary
