Hi there - I've been a member a long time here and don't post like I used to but felt I should say something here. Take it as you will - I have good intentions.
I read this whole thread and as you can see above - you did say you want to do this for the 'heck' of if. I have a feeling that's why you're getting replies you don't want to hear. Giving money to a registry that supports puppy mills is not something to do for the 'heck' of it.
Nancys post was very well said. Not mean - just honest.
There are people here that can educate those who really don't know certain things, such as puppy mills - different registries etc. In some cases, replies/opinions MAY come accross as harsh when it's really just their own style of speaking. It all can't be sugar-coated out of fear someone will get their nose out of joint.
There are many people here that really DO know what they are talking about. The site is so big that it hurts nothing to talk about puppy mills every chance we get because of what a huge problem it is.
If I were in your shoes - I'd listen and maybe try not to push so many buttons. I don't think you do it on purpose.... but when people reply to you and you don't like what they say, you consider it an attack.
Try to remember - people are trying to HELP and offering advise they know to be true and accurate. This site is read by many many people (lurkers, non members, etc) so it isn't just you that's reading replies. It's the whole internet....which makes it even more important that good information is posted.
