Thank you for visiting the community. We would love to hear from you, and have you join the many conversations going on between your fellow community members.  However, as with any civilized exchange of ideas, we need to lay down a few ground rules for everyone to follow when posting, which you will find in the guidelines below. Essentially, the guidelines are a list of reasons why you or another user’s comments may be removed from the discussion. Avoiding the content discussed in the guidelines will help keep the forum a friendlier, safer, more respectful environment – which is exactly what we set out to create.
