We have talked about possibly implementing new rules in the breeder section which would result in serious suspensions/banning or allowing only experienced breeders to reply to posts. We wish these ideas weren't necessary and they are not. If you cannot reply with fact based, helpful information then don't. It's really just that simple.
This section is consistently the most reported and cruelest section we have and I don't know why. We have so many experienced breeders here that no longer post or in some cases don't even want to be members anymore. I find that particularly sad and a detriment to yorkietalk.
Please think before you post and remember everyone was new at one time.
Thank You~ |
I must agreee 100%!
I know there are some very inexperianced persons that come here with females ready to whelp, seemingly to not have prepared at all, but that does not mean they need lectures or bashing from us. They need help. Plain and simple.
And you are right, we not only lose new new members to Yorkie Talk (who might have become donating members at some time), but we also lose (have lost) some long time members that will be sorely missed.
So fellow YT'rs, if you see a thread asking/pleading for help, and you can't simply do that, help without the criticism (nicely put or not), then live by the rule my mother always taught me;
"If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all." A good rule to live by.
