Nancy said nothing about you gals 'ruining the breed' in her post that you quoted.
She was stating her concern regarding those just looking to turn a quick profit. Maybe that is not the case with you and the breeders YOU correspond with (and I don't think it is), but it certainly does exist. I personally think that one of the issues for me comes when people claim they are 'working to set a standard' but then can't give accurate, detailed, of how and are not coordinating their efforts with others who claim to be doing the same.
(Again, that doesn't mean you all, just in general.)
Given the current popularity of Yorkies in general, I have the same concerns for those who breed standard colors as well.
