Forums, whether Yorkie forums or any other kind of forums are made up of a variety of members.
Not all members will sugarcoat their advice, and what may seem like "bashing" often isn't. If we could sit down with those same people and get the same advice it would come across differently, because we would see facial expressions, hear different inflections in their voice.
One thing everyone has in common on here is we love our Yorkies, and their health is what is upmost in members mind and not always thinking how the owner/poster will take what we have to say.
I have only been a member since April, and only started posting the end of July, but I have learned a lot from the members here. They are very knowledgeable about Yorkies, many are breeders.
If a post offends you for being too "forthright" just skip over it.
And Adrianne, this sentence was completely uncalled for:

Maybe you find the outfit ridiculous, but obviously the owner didn't.
Maybe they would find your outfits ridiculous, but would be too polite to make such comments.
This is a forum for our little Yorkies - and Yorkie mixes etc, let's just try and get along like the adults we are and not take anything too personal.
