Not that I'm defending that particular poster, because I'm not at all as I don't condone stirring up drama in someone's thread.
I do feel the need to say that people are coming here for solid advice because there is no place for them to go. There are no Morkie/Shorkie/Dorkie/insert whatever name here boards to go to, so they end up here.
I personally think it is better that they post here in the PUREBRED forums (as if that matters) and ask. They get told how to find a good shelter or to avoid puppy mills, etc. They aren't here to offend anyone, they just want a furbaby of their own and don't know where else to go to get reputable advice.
Would you rather they just buy from a petstore or a mill??? I sure wouldn't. I found out about the dangers of things here and I do not regret posting asking about mixes. I do apologize if it offends anyone, but I think that the people who point them in the right direction have the better take on responses.
Also, a lot of the advice on here pertains to a lot of different small dogs. It is still good information and I feel that people should have the right to ask questions, yes even in the PUREBRED forums, and receive advice on how to make the best choice for their furbabies, even if they are mixes. We love them just the same and YT is a great and helpful community. I like to think that they care about ALL animals.
