I came to YT as a yorkie mommy i was new here as well it is a very busy site and a lot of threads just get lost. I love it here it feels like a family to me. I only recently started selling clothing Items at the request of some of the members here. I don't flood the site with advertizement for my products i sell them when i have time to sew. I am mainly here to learn and share my experiances with others. i am a very active member i am on everyday and i try really hard to suport everyone here. I try to say everything with kind words and with tact because that is how i would like to be treated. There are a lot of politics that go on behind the sceane that a lot of members here don't see with the selling aspect, The only reason i have seen it is because i have started to sell my things here. I understand the business aspect and the industry but i honestly think so highly of YT and the members here and think we are a close nit group that i never imagined a lot of the cut throat techniques that go on behind it all in the sewing and selling field. I completely understand that people like a bargain and i see no problem with people posting their finds but it's when they dilebertly target another member to hurt her and her business is when i find it appaling. I truely wish that someone would post these threads so all can see for them selves. I love all the new people that come on and no they don't have to prove themselves to anyone. I think a lot of new people get over whelmed by the mass of people here and get lost in the shuffle. the best way to not have this happen is to get out there post some new threads let everyone get to know you. This all saddens me that people can be so disrespectful we are a community not just an online chat forum we are a family and we are all very close so yes it pains us when we feel we have been stabbed in the back. Some of you don't buy clothing or other items that some people make and that is fine but there are others who do and enjoy getting hand made quality items. IF I HAD A CHOICE BETWEEN SELLING MY ITEMS AND JUST BEING A MEMBER I WOULD HANDS DOWN JUST BE A MEMBER!! that is how important you all are to me. Please understand that some of us are sewing to support our families and our names are what we pride ourselves in and when some one comes on just to tarnish that name it really hurts us. I am sorry to go on for so long and i hope you all can understand what i mean. Thank you all here at YT and the Admin and Moderators with out you we would not be here. But to all the members please we need to be respectful of eachother and try to help eachother out. |
LOL, Amber, no one can EVER question your support. In just 10 short months you have well over 4000 posts! And I believe you hosted a marathon event a 4wt when YT was down.
Anyway, great post, Amber!!! (btw, how's the neck?)
