Let's be careful that we know someone is a troll before we start name calling. I know there are members on here who were called a troll when they joined and turned out to be great!

OMG! I love it! Thanks for posting that! One of the things I have enjoyed about this forum over the years (yes, I'm mostly a lurker) -- I have never encounterd a troll here. Some boards get too "Troll" friendly and then that's the end of 'em. You guys do a great job moderating and keeping the place friendly! Bravo. But I can see posting a reminder is a good way to keep people up on that "issue."

LOL thought this was cute! :D

Why did you put that scary thing or man here? I thought that this was a nice place to be! I don't know but my Princess and I am afraid of monstors. Are you a monstor? Or is that monstor for some one else?

My momie and I looked at this place before she said I could sign up, but we did not see that scary moan. My says casue I am 16 yrs old I can join you guys here, but if your going to be mean I do not know if this is the right place for a Handi cap person to be.

Will you be nice and explain what and awhy that ugly man is here. It would make me feel beter,. I thought grown ups were supposed to be good and nice. Are you a grown up? Be nice and tell me please. I just want a nice place to be when my princess is beside me.

There are some not-nice people who join this place just to be rude or mean. We call them "trolls" and let them know they are not welcome here, because we do want this to be a nice place for everyone; handicapped or not.

I think you'll be fine even if it Princess is in another room. It's just a picture and if you don't like to look at it, then don't. You have a choice to not read this thread and see that picture. It doesn't just randomly pop up to scare you.

Hello, everyone I am taking this time to say that Mindi will not be returning to your site. When we origanaly looked at it we thought it would be a nice place where a special kid could go. Where she could read about nice people and their dogs.

Mindi had a very hard night, she seen dogs attacking, cats and old people, she seen monstors too. Why? Because some of the people out here are not very experianced with their animals. As well as this post.

Then she seen the post of the Doberman that died and how everyone made such a fool out of them selves, over a person that sold a dog and it died. They called the person a troll and all kinds of names. Why? Who would care if that person sold a dog or two. I just seemed out of contex and unjustified to do such a thing to other people.

There are other pages that I could bring up, but do not have the time and or strength to wish to. You all know what and who you are.

I am totally amazed with the childish behaviors that I have seen on this forum. I beleive that the whole lot of you should grow up. Is is a shame that the lot of you, feel that it is your business to talk nasty too and about each other.

Mindi, really felt she could have fun out here, but now since this has all happened, I can not ever consider her too visit and or talk about her dog, Princess and or the new dog we will be getting her next yr.

Again it is just a simple shame that the lot of you have nothing better too do but to talk bad about each other, and place such nasty things up for young kids to feed off of. Just a real shame.

The thing about this is, Mindi is handicap and had a hard time with the mean statements, and uncontroled behaviors of the attacks on other individuals, and the allowed antic's of bulling. Now I must as well state what are you teaching the other young kids that come out here? It's okay being mean, go nuts and bully people! Well I really beleive that we have enough kids dieng already, so you all are just putting more wood in the fire. So remember that to have love understanding and unconditional love you are too share it. If you have ridicule and the aspects to injure other's mentally, and or physically you should be ashamed of yourself. No Mindi will not be returning to this nasty dog forum ever and if I must I may make a complaint to the right people.

One more point, and I will attempt to make it clear, if you all attack other people the way you do? What do you all do with your animals? Attack them as well. I am just looking at it in a mothers point of veiw, a mother with a young Special kid, that has a wonderful dog, that would die for her. Yes we all know that there are bad people out there, and that is a fair statement, but why on Gods Green earth would all of you feed these attitudes to young kids? I am just appauled!
As stated YOU ALL SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELVES. ESPECIALLY THE MONITORS AND ADMINISTRATOR'S FOR ALLOWING THE NASTY THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN GOING ON HERE. Jenny Mindi's mom

I am sorry that you feel this way, and that Mindi has missed all the good parts of this forum. I have to wonder why she chose to read those particular threads though and totally skip over things like the picture threads Summerriot has been posting. You can't find a nicer picture to look at than her Riot, or perhaps RD's Border Collie Dakota. Instead, her first experiences are with Trolls and threads that are obviously not going to be full of kittens and rainbows.

As to the "meanness" of this forum, I suggest you go look at a few other forums and see just how "nice" those places are before you pass such a harsh judgement call on us. We have people from all over the world coming to this site and we are not in the business of censoring all the "bad" things out. This is a place where dog people get together to talk about the problems they are facing, whether about themselves or their dogs, and we try to help them to the best of our ability.

I hope that Mindi and yourself have a good day and that you enjoy your new puppy whenever it comes.

We did look at those areas and that was what brought us to want to let Mindi stay. Mindi has a good out look on things, even though she has her health issues.

They are a nice area to go too, and be assured they are appreciated, Mindi is just like all kids, they see bad stuff and they attract too it. There are ways to protect your selves when it comes to cleaning up a mess. That is where the monitors come in. Yes you may state that their are other forums out there that are worse then this one, and that is a given. But why play along with them. So you just need too clean up stuff like this and then your site would be a okay place to be Jenny

Rest assured that we do have a very active panel of moderators working around the clock to make sure that the really terrible stuff is filtered out and that we do not allow name-calling, personal attacks, etc. We mods also work a lot behind the scenes, so even though you may not see exactly what's going on, very little escapes our attention.
