Just a reminder, when you see a new member's post or new thread, please be nice to them. Even if you may not necessarily agree with what they say, try not to get into an argument with a newbie. The first impression is very important, and many people tell us that they stay on YT because of all of our member's kindess and helpfulness. Put yourselves in their shoes, how would you react if you just joined a new forum on a topic you love, and someone isn't so nice to you? We have noticed a few snippy remarks from our members to newbies which we weren't quite so proud of. For YorkieTalk to grow and become an even better community, we need new members. So be nice to them, and one day maybe they will be able to help YOU in same way.

Also, on the subject of new members, what would you suggest to help our community become bigger and even better? We always love hearing our members feedback and we value your opinions. We've had a steady rate of 20 or so new members daily, but of course not every member participates or even posts. We're very proud of what our members have done to make YorkieTalk such a warm and caring forum, we want to continue to help more and more Yorkie lovers in the years to come.

Thanks for listening and have a nice Yorkie day!
