Why is this board so mean sometimes??

[Emmalee]

Apart from people telling everyones dogs they look cute.. this board is kinda harsh sometimes. The person who shared new puppy pics and I guess was a member before and made a new account.. 3 or 4 posts into the thread someone said something mean about the OP... he was just posting pics is all... and then there was the dog peeing blood.. I asked how she got the money for the vet visit and someone said "who cares" I was just asking cause she said she didn't have money in the first place.. I was curious Doesn't matter now.. hope the dog got its treatment.. and the dog strollers.. its just a freakin stroller and a dog in it.. :lol-sign: and the Richling followers.. it seems if they say anything they get attacked right away.. I'm not saying you don't have to speak your mind.. please do.. but sometimes topics get carried away with people arguing.. I think the one thing we all have in common is we are all dog owners and we love our dogs no matter what training belief we believe in or if we choose to push our dogs in strollers or not.. am I right? Does this make sense? Anyway.. I really like this forum.. I do, I do, I do

Being harsh at times really just goes with any message board. When you've got a large group of people who would probably never sit in a room together all in one place, tempers flare up sometimes. And honestly, some people get really jaded and tired of hearing the same excuses and whatnot all the time, so they tend to be less diplomatic. (You can only hear "my dog was in a mating tie, is she pregnant?" or "my dog keeps getting loose, what do I do?" so many times before you want to start thumping heads.) Its really not "this board," is kinda just life. Know what I'm stressin'?

I guess... Maybe we all wouldn't get a long in one big circus tent after all :lol-sign:

 

[ToscasMom]

^^Yeah. That.

It would depend on how many people bring cookies. LOL

:lol-sign: I baked chocolate chip cookies last night

 

[Bahamutt99]

That so rocks. I could tear up some cookies right now. Maybe I should make a request for baking ingredients next time we go grocery shopping.

I used the tollhouse square kind.. the kind you break apart and throw in the oven.. lol..

 

[Bahamutt99]

LOL! Cheater. (I do that too. )

If you bring cookies to the tent, I, for one, won't ask if you made them yourself.

Back to the OP .....remember that there are many ages here . And that not everyone has good days . Things do not come across in print as they would verbally . It's fine to post an opinion ..... but please take time to read what you've posted ! Hurting feelings is not acceptable to me.

Those are, quite possibly, THE greatest invention ever. I can now say I want one cookie and be able to have just that one cookie. Not 50000 total that I inevitably scarf down after the first I had to have.

Grammy, I agree. Things do come across the net differently then it would be in person. Thats the one thing I don't like about the net.. you can't hear the other persons tone of voice, so something may look rude, but maybe the OP was just joking.

This board is just really impatient with people who are ignorant, and when we try to educate them, get defensive and stubborn and refuse to listen.

The person who posted the pics earlier on a new account was someone who has done things frowned up by this board in the past, and refused to admit what they did was wrong.

If anyone asked you that, Emmalee, would I get their cookie, too?

In all seriousness.... as to the puppy pictures thread..... that member has caused too many waves for most older members here to forget. (I'm not one of them.) Before people could just tell new members who were inclined to give the benefit of the doubt to this member to go look at the old posts--they more than speak for themselves. The advantage in said member creating a new account is that it is a blank slate, no one can go back and look at those several thousand posts.

Edit: You can see where that would stir the pot a bit.

 

[~Tucker&Me~]

Yup, that person has a history .

Arguments go along with all message boards. Honestly, Chazhound is TAME compared to some thing's I've seen.

Actually Chas is very easy going compared to the other boards I'm on...

I love this place and I love the chazzers.


Now, I WANT A COOKIE!!
Do I get a cookie if I show up in the tent?

I'll roll over for a cookie. I swear.
But only if it's a chocolate chip cookie.
