Hi.

Unfortunately, that is because you've had your privileges revoked. If you look below your name, you will see a Subscribed Member (B) status. That means you still have access to the forum and articles, but you can no longer add pedigrees.

The reason why you can no longer enter in pedigrees is because you're doing a horrible job of entering in your dogs.
Yesterday, it was brought to my attention that you entered in the same dog FIVE TIMES

I simply can't have this kind of sloppiness here.
I can't have people adding the same dog, again and again, spelled all kinds of different ways.

You need to PAY ATTENTION.
You need to WATCH THE VIDEO on how to enter in dogs correctly.
There is no excuse for not watching this video. None. Zero.

You should be aware of what you've already entered, and you should become familiar with how to SEARCH FOR A DOG BY NAME ONLY *FIRST*.

I am happy to restore your privileges, once you have (1) given me your word you've watched all the videos, and (2) if you agree never to just "keep adding the same dog" again.

I am not trying to be mean, rude, or disrespectful.

I simply canNOT keep letting you just "wing it" and totally botch your data entry.

You need to TAKE CARE, spell correctly, use proper punctuation, and search for a dog FIRST before just entering MULTIPLE poorly-spelled duplicates.

If I don't do this, all of the features we offer here are worthless, if there are 5-10 duplicates of each dog, all poorly-spelled, all with duplicate offspring, etc.

It's your choice: you can either take care or take a hike.

I cannot, and will not, allow anyone to keep doing what you're doing. Everybody likes to think they can just "start entering dogs," and MOST blow it when they do this. You cannot keep entering the same dogs, over and over again, changing their spelling each time, without a clue what you're doing, and destroying the data here.

So please take the time to actually watch the videos so you understand how things work here.

I have an automatic email to everyone, that sends the moment they join, politely asking them to PLEASE WATCH THE VIDEOS, and about 90% don't do what they're politely asked to do ... and that is watch the damned videos before doing anything.

The amazing thing is, if you actually watch ALL the videos, your appreciation for what this place can do will grow tenfold
