Hi Cort,

I agree with you and this will always be true when you can say whatever you please without having to face anyone in person. This is rampant in the message board community everywhere - all breeds, all boards. This is also why many who are new to the breed are also AFRAID to post questions. Why? Because they are told they asked a stupid question, they don't deserve to own a dog because they don't know X,Y,Z, they aren't worthy to own a _______ (insert breed here). I doubt that 10% of the people posting on the boards would have the nerve to say what they say here to someone in a face to face meeting.

But, I also believe that we can learn quite a bit from the posts a person makes; so I find these negative threads to be a necessary evil.

Take care,

Gina
