How is it that when a thread is started by someone asking for info about a particular breeder, people who have NEVER posted before (or very little) manage to find the thread and either give a rave review or a really bad one on the breeder and seem to have a really stong opinion one way or the other? Or someone joins YT, immediately finds that thread somewho and the very first (and sometimes only) post is a detailed account of their dealings with that breeder?
Not that there is anything wrong with that, but to me it just seems kind of odd? How much stock would you put into the info that person says, vs a long time member's advice?

If you mean that someone asks a question about a particular breeder and gives a link, then someone new posts and gives a rave review, this is probably what's happening. Every time someone from YorkieTalk opens that link, the person who owns the website finds out where that link has been posted. When he checks it out, and finds a question concerning the quality of his kennels, he would be tempted to pose as a disinterested third party, and post a rave review. Sometimes they post as themselves, and tell how they found the question. This can be done even if they don't even give a link, but just a name, and someone types that in the address bar.
