Yep. Similar solutions have been suggested before, but in some ways it creates a whole new "debate" over who is eligible to be identified as a breeder. I personally am just going to try my best to be empathetic to both the breeders and new posters, try to be careful how I word things so as not to cause offense, (obviously I could do better at that
) and on the rare occasions that I give any specific breeding/whelping information remember to state that I am not a breeder yet.
