I'm sorry you're confused.
Could you explain what is confusing you so we can help?
There is a breeders and show section toward the bottom of the page with all the forums listed.

I am so sorry. Sad to go through all that when you are trying to help. I have seen it so many times. Some folks just refuse to work together for the betterment of the 'community'....it is usually an ego thing. If they didn't think of it, it is not a good idea.

It was something new for the vultures to pick apart and argue about. Its sad. So good luck to those of you who want to keep doing this, but I just won't.

MiLeighsMoM · 03-28-2008, 01:28 PM

That IS sad. What a shame, If people didn't agree with you, why did they not just stay out of it? I'm sure your idea will nevertheless do some good, it has reminded a lot of us to keep a lookout for new members. Thanks anyway.

You got nasty PM's for this??? I thought you were trying to do something nice. Even though I don't think everyone necessarily agreed upon the "vehicle" with which to do it, I thought it was a really nice idea.

I don't PM much, but I never thought they would be used negatively. But I do see some people talking about ones that they get in that way. Guess I'm naive.

sammiz · 03-28-2008, 01:35 PM

Maybe you coudl just turn off your PMs to ignore the nay-sayers

and communicate by e-mail with those that want

to help. It really is such an excellent idea

and you have a lot of interested folks that have volunteered to help.

I am rooting for you. Don't give up. Please reconsider.

MiLeighsMoM · 03-28-2008, 01:36 PM

I think some people get mad cuz they didn't think of the idea... But it looks like your doing something right because Admin sure said Thank You for coming up with the idea!!! please don't let arrogance get in the way of something wonderful you want to do

Ellie May · 03-28-2008, 01:58 PM

Please don't pay attention to PMs.
That's one of the reasosn why my box is closed for the most part.
If you can't say something in public, then should you really be saying it in private?...

kezza · 03-28-2008, 02:02 PM

I think you have a wonderful idea there! Just shows you what a kind & thoughtful member you are

sammiz · 03-28-2008, 02:08 PM

I use my PM capabilities to offer encouragement during crisis, inquire regarding a person's health issues or to speak consoling words for a personal loss. Those that use them to bully, be mean or just plain ol' negative in general should be ashamed. AND ignored. I am absolutely certain that is not what it is designed or provided for.

And that is EXACTLY what it should be used for

If you attack another member in a private message, you may be suspended or banned depending on your actions. YorkieTalk will not tolerate ANY PERSONAL ATTACKS.

Shadow · 03-28-2008, 02:54 PM

Yes, you should turn those PM's over to administration, that is terrible!
