I've been on here for over year and in the beginning it would hurt when I would see comments like that and I would want to lash out at those that were nasty, but I've changed my way of thinking, now when I see that I either get off of that thread, or I just say (out loud to my computer) WHATEVER YOU CRAB! Yes sometimes my kids look at me like I've lost my mind!

Me too!

I'm sorry that you're upset.:(

You can always use the report abuse or ignore buttons. If it is a personal attack against you or anyone else, Admin will take care of it if you report it because that is against YT rules. I think it is also against the rules to discuss other Yorkie forums here though.

Please try to remember that YT has over 30,000 members and not everybody is going to get along all the time. Most of us try though. :)

I am sorry your YT experience has been a painful one. I hope you will change your mind and stay . ignore the bad posts, i have seen them too .If it is not helpful to you, then just blow it off. do not take it personally. After being on here for a while you tend to develop a thick skin. The majority of Yt'ers are very cool and supportive.
If you ever need anything at all, please pm me. I am usually a very nice lady. I hope you stay and see that YT is a very wonderful .

Like I said on the other thread, this site is full of very opinionated people and people who care tons about the betterment and safety of animals. Therefore, in return you're going to get the opinions and advice you were asking for. I'm honestly "shocked" that someone can ask for advice on a touchy subject and honestly expect to just get sweet replies, that's not how the world nor all people respond. I'm not going to go out of my way to sugar coat something but I also feel as if she wasn't being treated bad, opinions/advice was given as it was asked for - it's the owners right to choose whether they take the advice or not.

I have to admit there have been times when I stayed away, and did not post for a while because of some very rude people. (and the posts were not even directed at me) I just figure, as said before, don't let a few bad eggs ruin the carton. :)

I have No idea what you are referring to. I absolutely agree with you. However, if very new people come on here and experince all that is negative it will turn them off to YT.
I am outspoken too on many threads , however I try not to be offensive. The thing is I never know how someone is going to take it. :aimeeyork

i'm glad I was able to make you guys laugh! LOL!

I hope you'll give YT another chance too. I've been here more than 3 years now and only had one person be completely hideous to me. There is an ignore member option here I've used on a couple people and I have to say this really helps...:p Other than that, I LOVE this site. We have Gift Exchanges, awesome halloween contests, the wonderful YT calendar and even better than all that is all the support you're given whenever anything upsetting happens to you or your dogs. :thumbup:

Speaking frankly!!!!!!
 

Can be a little dangerous when you are talking about someone's children and let's face it, that's what this is. On top of it there is a little anonimity involved so it is sort of like mixing talking about someone's children while you are driving past in a car that you will never see again- a place where I see people do things at red lights that frighten me.

The yorkie talk does get frank and borderline bald nervey BUT and not the but that negates everything else before it- you are conversing with a lot of Yorkie experts. This is a collection of brilliance for your dog. Don't minimize that!

As I went to the site of the Breeder that was at issue that started the problem that a member found offensive that she felt pumeled for supporting, with a very open mind, after having Yorkies from a small child to now- age 45, I see some areas of honest concern. I wanted to like them- to defend them for you. I wanted to be in your camp,:thumbup: but after YEARS of Yorkies, this Breeder says and is "selling" some questionable things that may want to concern you if you are considering purchasing another puppy from them. They may be the nicest people going, but their website is questionable and that is all any of us probably know about them. :confused:

Someone said something not nice about my Breeder and I WAS offended- my Breeder was Mother Theresa!!! The person who made a coment is not even a member anymore so I can't even ask what the heck??!! I know how you feel! Anyway, weed through it if you can and we all need to remember- these are our babies! Put a nice screen on your Keyboard!!! Thanks for the not so gentle reminder we are NOT in our cars!:rolleyes:
