Search results

The forum database has to keep a large index of words in every single post to enable searching. Adding 3 letter words to that would increase the index considerably and slow down the forum. One way around it is to use google to search the site. eg: site:forums.rabbitrehome.org.uk vhd Only...

Found him dead in the shed this morning. :cry: :cry: :cry: Not been himself for some weeks, but nothing I could put my finger on. Not been coming out of the shed as much as he used to and sometimes in deep sleeps (I would have to poke him to wake him up, after which he would be fine). My...

Awesome!! :thumb: :thumb: :D What video camera is that if you don't mind me asking?

Please do not discuss other forums as it just causes problems. Thanks.

Tamsin has disabled links in signatures until you have posted 25 times. This is to try and stop some of the spam. Everyone's signature will disappear until the forum has refreshed user permissions. Don't worry, it will come back. :)

I will repeat again, please stop the sniping at each other. Either discuss the rabbit situation or do not post.

OK folks that's enough fighting. I don't want to lock this thread when these kits obviously need help, but I will do if any more personal comments are made either way. Please lets try and help these rabbits instead of squabbling.

I am set to invisible to prevent exactly this kind of problem. I have RU as my homepage on all my computers and my phone. Every time I open a browser it would show me as logged in even if I was looking up something at work. Then people would PM me and think I was ignoring them.

Tamsin means report as in click the report button on a post. That way whoever is on next will see it and deal with it. Obviously if your thread has been removed, then you can't report it, but you're welcome to PM all the mods if you want, many people do that. :)

I first heard it on Usenet about 12 years ago, and that was mainly an American group. It's been used on here since the board went live so seems pretty widespread even then. :?

Can't you just resize it 12 pixels narrower? I'm sure someone will do it for you if you're not sure how. :thumb: Yes, there used to be no enforced limit on siggy size, just a recommendation, but as they started getting larger and larger a limit was added.

If you post your thread in the wrong place your best bet is to report it (using the report button on the left hand side of your post), and ask for it to be moved. A mod will move it as soon as they see the report. :)

We don't always remove threads just because someone requests it. Although you start a thread, other people contribute to it and it becomes a group conversation. It is not fair on the other people if the OP can just delete it on a whim. If you change your mind about posting something, you can...

I agree that if it was my family then it's more than possible I'd want to kill them too, but surely that just proves that the process is based on revenge, not on any impartial moral standard.

Yup. We just seem to be going round and round in circles. :lol:

My opinion is that murder is murder. No, only in the specific context of kill or be killed. Again, that has nothing to do with executing prisoners. I do. Again, this is not about them. I couldn't give two hoots about their human rights. This is about you and I sanctioning the murder of...

So will locking them up So now murder is ok because it will save some money? :? Because I have respect for these things. It's not about being compassionate, it's about not wanting to commit murder. The point is that murder is wrong. Whether commited by an individual or state sanctioned.

Even if this could be argued (and I disagree), how does that absolve us of wrongdoing? You argue that they lose their right to be treated humanely as if we're just waiting for an excuse to treat someone inhumanely. The moral issue is with us not with them.

As Martin has already said, there are plenty of other ways of removing the danger. This is not self defense. No, it should not be about "balance". My self defense argument says that I would only kill them if it was the only way to stop them killing me. It would be an act of desperation. It does...

Which I also disagree with. For truly dangerous animals I guess it falls into my "them or us" category. Ideally they'd be removed somewhere where they couldn't endanger society but I appreciate this is often impractical.
