Author  Topic    Admin Forum Admin 306 Posts Posted - 11/01/2006 :  10:13:02   Welcome to the BreastImplants411 Discussion Forum! BreastImplants411 provides a safe, supportive environment for participants to interact in conversations regarding all aspects of breast augmentation. The BI411 Discussion Forum is a place for participants to ask questions, share actual experiences, offer guidance and discuss personal issues with women who have had or are considering breast augmentation. The Forum is also a great place to make new friends! In 1997, we sensed a growing community of women who could benefit from a forum focused specifically on breast augmentation topics and created the BreastImplants411 Discussion Forum. Since then, the Forum has grown to include over 7000 members. We appreciate the members’ input and are proud that together we have been able to benefit so many women. BreastImplants411 Discussion Forum User Agreement Visitors of BreastImplants411.com may only become members and post to the BI411 Discussion Forum by agreeing to the following rules and guidelines.

As members of the Forum, it is appropriate to discuss all aspects of breast augmentation, including personal and health issues, ask questions, share your personal stories, information and ideas, provide positive support and create community with other members of the Forum. Inappropriate: Attacking opinions, discussing irrelevant topics and behaving in an abusive, disruptive manner are NOT acceptable. This pertains to unacceptable behavior directed at other members, plastic surgeons and the Forum administration. Members will be held responsible for the content of their messages. Example: It is acceptable to share your personal experiences of your surgery and your plastic surgeon (good or bad) in a non-defamatory manner; it is not acceptable to inappropriately accuse and defame a surgeon. If you have had a dissatisfactory experience or a have valid complaint regarding a BI411 sponsoring plastic surgeon, please contact BI411 Forum administration before posting your dissatisfactory experience or complaint on the Forum. It is the administration’s intention to maintain the integrity of the Forum for ALL users. 2) Privacy and Safety: It is of the utmost importance that respect and safety are prevalent in all matters on the Forum.

The BI411 Forum is intended to be a Women’s Only Forum BI411 has initiated the following procedures to ensure the safest environment possible on the Forum. BI411 requires that new members call the BI411 Office to activate their membership. Email addresses are not displayed and are not accessible by any other Forum user.
