Let me also add my welcome to our community, k9trek. I agree with the others: having read the rules and demonstrated a concern for following them, you're ahead of the game compared to some new posters. So, I think a little relaxation is in order.
I do have a suggestion, though...not to be taken as an official "suggestion" from a moderator, new one that I am. It's a piece of advice I received early on at another forum I frequent that I've tried to live by here and it's served me pretty well:
Read more, post less.
Now don't get me wrong. I'm not trying to discourage you from posting your questions and contributions...
not at all...nosireebob. It's just my opinion that reading the posts of others (a lot) will go a long way toward giving you a feel for how things are and are not done on this board. Me, I still try to keep my reading-to-posting ratio pretty high...and considering how long I've been a member, I think my post count supports that.
