Guidelines for the Monkey Maddness Message Board.

Feel free to state your opinion, ask a question, or reply to someone else' post. We do request that all stay focused and to not reply in a derogatory personal attack of any individuals' character. We are all individuals with different approaches and tactics. Let us celebrate our differences and find a common ground to promote the well-being of all primates.
We do ask that all refrain from posting "ANY" addresses and phone numbers etc...All is welcome to leave email addresses and exchange all private information via private email.
One other issue is the posting of breeders names and phone numbers etc... Recommending a breeder on a public forum such as this one is a massive undertaking. This responsibility is not one that we at Monkey Maddness feel comfortable with and we would like for all that participate to please refrain from posting this information. Breeders are encouraged to participate in interaction of this web-site as we need all valuable information and resources to better care for our NHPs. We hope that everyone will respect our wishes not to promote names and addresses and phone numbers here.
We would be happy to collect and compile a list of breeders if that is what is wanted and send to individuals via request by those that already own a NHP via private email. We understand that one would rather go to a decent, honest, and caring breeder than one who is out there to get the most money possible and spend the least to care for the NHPs. Let us know if there is a need for this and we will try to accommodate your needs. Monkey Maddness wishes to remain a forum for the care and well being of NHPs. We are not a forum to endorse individual private breeders or the primate trade. Our purpose is to promote interaction between people who happen to share their lives with NHPs and to promote better NHP care.

Thank you in advance for understanding and respecting our views on this matter. Our actions are for the positive enrichment of all primates.
