As far as I am concerned, the only one who has the right to tell someone else they are being rude or bullying here is the admin and his designees. |
I think the longer you are around here the easier it is to see this. You have to remember what some of these people have seen. LJ has seen more things than we can even begin to believe. You have to place your self in their position to understand why they are so passionate when they post. You can not allow your feelings to stand in the way. They are telling you what they THINK is in the best interest of the pup. Right or wrong, it is what they are giving for advice.
We also have to remember some of these posts, in my opinion, have been designed to "set up" YT members.
Again speaking personally, I love my vet and I think he is one of the best. However, he is not just a Yorkie vet. Many of these people have seen things that relate to Yorkies specifically. Sometimes I think experience means a lot. For example, I have a Masters degree with 6 years experience. Yet, I know some that have a Bachelors with 25 years experience. Guess who I go to for advice? Do I always follow it? No. Do I always agree with it? No. However, I do appreciate the fact that it is what they THINK I should do.
I think with any forum you will have to deal with this. I know some will think people are rude, bullying, aggressive, etc. while others will see it as helpful advice. It is just all about opinions.
Admin stays on top of the post and does handle any problems that occur. Rest assured that if there is an issue it will be taken care of. However, also keep in mind that they do understand that everyone has their own opinions.
