| Hi again, Phoenix, long ways away. I must say, and I am quite new here, and I have not followed all the threads or conversations, but what I have seen, I have been impressed with the generosity of spirit, the graciousness with which folks try to reach out and with what appears to be genuine concern comfort, console, support, entertain and interact with those whom they are addressing..... After being drawn into hours of fascinating topics and things, I have yet to run across distasteful or negative or aggressive stuff, so if this helps at all to be encouraging...if there has been much of it, it must be in small, in frequent occurrences,....You have a really good community here and I look forward to meeting more of you, your babies and the amazingly wonderful things you do for your pups and the generous sharing of experience and advice. I am not an experienced threader or blogger or whatever but so far I have greatly enjoyed my visits to your site and look forward to more....I have a facebook page and do not enjoy it I have email and find it tedious f most of the time, tried twitter and the rest but, where does one find the time? anyway, I am enjoying this lovely site and look forward to participating more when I can find the free time to reconnect with you.....

| Negative Breeds Negative. I voiced an honest opinion about a bad purchase experience on this site several years ago. The merchant sent a sample, which I approved of. Sadly, the purchased item, boxes of puppy pads, were absolutely nothing like the sample he sent. They were cheap, thin and ragged. When I carefully voiced a warning, various writers AND the merchant were all over me like bullies in a schoolyard. While I now occasionally look to Y.T. for advice or a heads up, I rarely contribute or lend a thought. That experience was so offensive and not monitored by any means of decent guidelines by those leading Y.T. I'm a 60 year old experienced dog owner who once enjoyed the community and sharing gleaned from other beloved Yorkie devotees on this site. Albeit free speech and right to opinion, one should at least be kindly and fair. The world provides us with enough other places to be bullied or abused. It should NOT be happening on Yorkie Talk. We should be treating each other with the endearing and sweet manner in which our dear Yorkie companions treat us... Mom to Mr. Darcy and Jackson

| Thank you, Ann, for a post well said. I am extremely new here and looked forward to joining this community. However, I too, was starting to second guess leaving a post or comment. Maybe I'm not talking like a seasoned Yorkie Mom and someone may not agree with my comments. But I am here to learn how to be the best human for my baby, even though this is NOT my first rodeo. I think I will just remain silent for a bit...and read...and learn. Thank you |

| I'm new to the forum...I am a groomer I have many yorkies. They are my favorite to groom! I like post in pictures of all my critters and I hope the YorkieTalk community enjoys them as much as I do. I am also a foster parent for Yorkies along with other small breeds. I hope I see a lot of Yorkie pictures from other forum members |

YT 1000 Club Member | Being new here I have really only seen people being nice, so maybe this post did make a difference. I posted what I THOUGHT was a decent and not rude comment on something though and the person quoted me and basically said I was being rude and I was totally taken back because I thought I was NOT being rude. I try to be a very supportive and nice (maybe even polite) person on anything that I am on (facebook, a forum, etc). I hope that I will continue to enjoy this forum as much as I have the past week, since I found it. I will definitely try to be polite to people and I am sorry if someone took something I tried to keep upbeat as something rude when it was not. I went back and read what I wrote and I still don't think I was being rude to them even after re-reading it.

| It is so easy to misread someone's words. The same sentence, said with different inflection, can mean the opposite of what you meant. While the internet, technology, facebook, twitter, etc, can be wonderful tools, they take away the personal experience. The face to face interaction that makes life wonderful and also holds you responsible for your words. There are too many stories out there about cyber bullying. It is so easy to be mean when you are a faceless being. It does take a little effort (not much though!) to be nice to people. So if we all put in a little effort, the world will be a wonderful place ! Having said all that, i have not experienced any problems with this site in the short time I have been here. I absolutely LOVE this site. The people are caring and helpful and full of knowledge. To those people who are holding back due a bad experience - give it another shot! Don't let one or two bad apples deprive you of a great experience. Max will be 2 in May and Sasha just turned 1 in January. I look forward to may years of sharing with the people here. |

| I agree completely. That poster was so guilt ridden about rehoming an 11 week old pup, she was not even in a position to accept caring/helpful suggestions which were offered. There was a lot of caring compassion on that thread
