Yes she overreacted and called people names but we all know that it can be hard not to react when people are confronting us when we post whether we are right or wrong it can be overwhelming especially if we have a dog that is sick and we are just trying to figure out what is wrong with our dog. I do hope she finds a good Vet for Bo$$ and figures out what is wrong. There may be people who are trying to mess with the YT community but I choose to believe that most posters come here looking for help and answers, whether they are willing to listen to that advice is another thing.

When a dog has lost that much blood the vet doesn't just check there blood sugar so something was off.......... I also think its wrong to point fingers at good people and people who help a lot because when it comes down to it in the end the person chooses how THEY are going to react they can not be made to react a certain way.

I agree Taylor with ignoring people. You should see my Official YT Ignore list. Since I've returned to YT last month I have a new perspective on who and what will get a response. My list is growing by the day ;)

I will have to respectfully disagree with you here. Yes we choose how to react but we are not always perfect. From personal experience I know that I try not to react emotionally when confronted by people but I do not always have my emotions in control and at times I lash out at people when provoked. When my emotions calm down I realize that I overreacted and apologize if I feel my feelings were an over reaction to a perceived attack. There have been many posters on YT who have felt attacked by other posts. Some were truly condescending posts, some were educational and the poster just did not want to listen to good advice, and some were misinterpreted as being attacking when that was never the attention of the poster. I know the saying is sticks and stones may hurt my bones but names can never hurt me but that is false names do hurt. I do think Bo$$ Girl went overboard.

I will step up and take the claim. I ran her off and I am proud of it!

I'm not ashamed and I will do it again if needed.

I would like the title under my name to read "YorkieTalk Bouncer" please.

You take me off that list!! Right now!!!

No I can see you! :D

One of the biggest rules of YT is not to swear. She swore and that's the end of the story. It's a 3 day suspension and almost up.

Oh and I can see you too. :p

Gone because she used foul language. Sigh.

Having been in the situation a few times with a member where I felt I was being made to react the way I acted I had to step back and really look at it and the member was not holding a gun to my head so I choose to react to what they where doing and if my way of reacting is so bad it breaks the rules I need to work on how I react in the future.

Taylor that is such a powerful statement and a great life lesson. I can only hope that others learn that truth as well.:thumbup:

Ridiculous! Proud of running people off. What a bunch of high school nonsense. I sure don't know of any others here who had accidental pregnancies with their yorkie and praised and accepted for it. Newcomers would be hung for that. They are bullied and accused of being liars. Of couse they are going to get to the breaking point and lose it. You all gang up and know just how to push their buttons and once you've pushed them far enough, you celebrate your win. Pathetic!

What are you talking about! :confused::confused::confused:

Seriously??? High school nonsense.... Isn't that exactly what you're doing by posting this post??
No one praised me for getting my Yorkie pregnant accidentally. However, those who cared stepped up and offered help and support, like the boards often do. Because I needed it and I asked for it after I made a mistake that I willingly admitted to. I never lied about anything, I didn't make anything up, I never called anyone names, and I have certainly had my fair share of people who didn't agree with me.

Clearly you can't take a joke, because my post was in jest. I didn't do anything to get her suspended, she did that herself when she decided to call people names and curse. But yes, I pushed her buttons, and I called her out because she is a liar if she's making up things about her dog for attention. I would have said the same things to her face as I said to her on here. No one bullied anyone. We asked her to explain the discrepancies in her story. When she couldn't do so, and kept making excuses, we called her out on it. Some people prefer to sweep it all under the rug and pretend that everyone is here for the greater good of their Yorkie, and we all know that's not true.

None of us are perfect, and I never claimed to be, but I'm not sitting up on my high horse posting veiled posts like you are. If I have something to say, I say it and you'll know its about you because I will clearly tell you.
If you have something to say to me, you be a big enough person to say it to my face.

:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup: That's what I was just thinking. Some people enjoy pushing buttons and then stand back and laugh and celebrate when it works. Those people go first onto my "ignore" list.

Every case is different, every story different and that is why things play out differently in each case. Random newbies vs Old Timers should and are usually handled differently, thats just life....some of those newbie threads go the deep end because the OP is really here just to do so...it is a fact that often times they are reincarnates of someone who was previously banned etc.....You can say all you want about running off newbies but most times I think its a weeding out process and I'm glad because this is a good community and irregardless it has millions of visitors and posts and threads and YT is thriving despite the loco LOCALS....of which I am one. YT is the BEST RESOURCE AVAILABLE on line for everything YORKIE...PERIOD.

Whaaaaaaaaaaat???

Hope this thread gets closed soon.

Just gotta say that I saw NO "bullying" as people love to spout off. (please note that it is against YT rules to call someone a bully). I saw a new member talking a bunch of stuff and people calling him/her on the inconsistencies. The new member started cursing and got suspended. Then, things went off in another direction and there was a quite a bit of joking around.....things continued off topic and again, joking. All at once, the night in shining armor comes from out of the blue to accuse long time members of running people off. Really?????? Oh well...same stuff, different day in the lives of YT members. :D
