While I think it's important to have compassion for people, I feel compassion for the dogs, as well, and since they can't speak up, we need to speak for them; hopefully we can do it with compassion.  |
Well said Nancy.. I am also concerned with losing the long time members and seeing a thread made in that is clearly a mocking thread would surely make a new donating member wonder what they donated for.. to read that kind of stuff is not even fun..
I guess the people who can read between the lines is often on line can see this. Like myself do not make a thread any longer... I post once in awhile but much it is taking the focus away from the reason we all come to yorkietalk to begin with.
Further more I can remember a day that threads with this behaviour and taunting was not allowed.. I feel like this has been somehow lost..
I am pretty much a loner on the forum and reading can always let us know of intent..
I am hoping yt will again get on track with threads that are either information.. fun and helping people cope with emergencies and or the loss of a beloved furbutt..
Thank you again for trying to turn up the compasion again on this forum that so many have loved for years.
