First of all, rules like this tend to be used by bullies on the group to make posters conform. If its not that rule, they will have another so we may as well confront them on this one. One fellow has rules re the = subject of the post - he changes mine when he makes some remarks. Bully tactics. Bullies never grow out of their habit. In addition I go fishing a lot and report what I see other than the = fish, I have no desire to have a fish hog follow me there through this group.

A lady recently posted about her desire to have location in the posts. I = have never read to my knowledge any posts from her. She wants to make the = rules but doesn't post herself. A cyber bully! In addition Jane the number of posts has fallen like the Maple Leaves in = the NHL. We need to do something to encourage folks to post. Bullies giving first = time posters the works about the rules will scare them away for sure. Need any more reasons?

Having the location, date, and observer's name clear = in the e-mail is not only helpful to general readers or others in that = area, but to editors for Nova Scotia Birds or North American Birds who = may find the records useful.

Too often, they are simply = called "Joe's Yard", "Betty's feeders", "123 Main St." (with no town = name), or even "My cottage", etc., making them quite useless to anyone = but the observer and his or her friends, or to someone with the time to = track down a map link for it and bring it up on the net.
