I think one large thing that bothers me is when people say you shouldn't post in the breeding section unless your a breeder. It's probably in my opinion pretty nasty thing to say because it's like saying you can't have any knowledge of breeding unless you have done it and I think that's wrong. I think someone can still have a lot of knowledge about breeding with out doing it. Obviously a breeder still has more knowledge but it dosent mean a non breeder dosent and that there information should not be shared. There are also a lot of people who go to the breeding section to ask about breeders and again I feel some of us non breeders who have been there and bought from the people with these red flags and know why there bad and why to not buy from them should share. People who buy from bad breeders or who are looking at buying from bad breeders should know what it's like from the prespective of a person who bought from a bad breeder and all the issues they have had because of it. I also think whether the dog has been bred or not it's never to late to educate because there will always be another time and there will be people who read it and go oh they had no problem breeding there dog I'm going to do the same with mine unless maybe some other information is posted to show the other readers it wasn't the best thing and why but it is about how you word it. I would like for a moderator or Admin to clarify maybe in the breeding section who can post there. Maybe even letting others know it's not ok to tell someone you should not post in this section because you are not a breeder. In my opinion that's like saying you should not post in sick and injured because you are not a vet. I also would like to see maybe a rule about not telling people they ran someone off I think it is hurtful, mean, most of the time not true, and just causes people to get defensive and causes issues. A lot of the time when a member does not come back after the first posts it is because they couldnt see the post after they posted, they expect an immediate answer, they forget about it, they don't understand message boards, or they just can't find it.
