Recently we had some droolers inquiring if a Drool Rule had been broken. The Drool Rule in question reads: ( all the rules can be found at www.dailydrool.com) 
 
>>FORWARDING OR SUPPLYING THE DAILY DROOL TO ANYONE NOT ON OUR DAILY DROOL SUBSCRIBER LIST IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN AND WILL RESULT IN IMMEDIATE AND IRREVOCABLE CANCELLATION OF SUBSCRIPTION.<<
 
This means that you may not send or share the Daily Drool digest with someone who is not a subscriber. Anyone of course is welcome to subscribe!
Now~ many of us forward digests to fellow members who are not receiving theirs. Some read posts to co-workers. Many read the digests to friends and family members. Sometimes one person may have a subscription and their spouse just reads those digests rather than being subscribed themselves. This is all ok to do. The idea is to keep the email addresses of members private- well as private as they can be kept within a list of 3000+ members. 
 
When an issue arises that may or may not be a violation of a Drool Rule; it is up to the moderators to make a decision of what plan of action to take. This is the Drool Rule that allows us to do that:
 
>>Prior to being posted on the Drool, all messages are reviewed for appropriateness by the moderators. Inappropriate messages sent to the list, including but not limited to posts that are abusive, offensive, designed to disrupt the friendly Drool environment, or do not otherwise adhere to the Drool Rules may be rejected at the moderators’ discretion.<<
 
I won't bore, nor entertain you with the wide variety of posts we receive. We put through the ones we feel are within the boundaries and reject those that we feel are not. Most days this an easy job- some days it is stressful. All of us volunteer our time because we love the Daily Drool and wish it to continue for many years to come. We are all passionate with our opinions and feelings. But the most important reason for bringing and keeping us all together is King Caruso- the basset that caused Drool Mom Nancy to create this list to begin with. After a decade of moderating solo ( how??? and do you really still have hair???) she handed the reins over. So now there is also a variety of opinions among moderators- and this is good. Sometimes one of us sees something one way and someone else points out something we did not even consider.
We're all in this together- FOR THE BASSETS!
Thank you- Angelika with the rest of the mod squad
