As for your personally offending me, I can assure you, I'm not offended at all. It takes a lot more than that to offend me.
Your post just seemed to stress the lack of educating others more than anything else. That is where it seems we have a difference of opinion in regards to the responses normally given on this topic. I think there is far more "educating" that goes on...the "drama" generally comes from those who could care less about 'educating' and more about trying to control others.  |
First of all, I'm glad I didn't upset you because I totally did not mean to.
Oh! I see now. That isn't what I meant at all, but I definitely see how it could have come off that way.
I guess I was directing the "let's educate" more to those that weren't educating, such as the "don't be mean," "purebred," and perhaps even the "Honda" (although I'm not going to lie...I did chuckle at that one) posters, than the people that were providing advice already.
I probably should have acknowledged the people that were educating more to give the post better balance. I kind of thought I was doing that through saying that isn't how I think the community is and pointing to one example of a good poster like Reese1. I guess maybe I should have given more examples. Sorry about that.
In closing, I'd like to state that those who give good advice and educate are definitely the majority here.
This community as a whole is very caring and very helpful in my opinion! Thanks for being so great guys (us newbies appreciate it

)!
