• rwbeagles Posted : 7/18/2007 12:20:36 PM Moderator AGAIN... Not to sound mocking...BUT....self moderation was explained to me...to be something this forum COULD do?   Now...instead of respecting the wishes of a moderator you folks continue yet again...to discuss not the CONCEPT but INDIVIDUAL MEMBERS. This will STOP because if it does not...PM's and possibly suspensions will be doled out. The game playing is over...you folks claim you can self moderate and then fail miserably...over and over. Put your money where your mouth is and be respectful of the warnings placed by moderators. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Chuffy Posted : 7/18/2007 12:30:22 PM Public apologies to anyone offended by my post.  I did read it carefully before posting and did not think it hurtful or disrespectful.   To clarify:  I wasnt saying you're not allowed to post advice if the op does not specifially ask for it.  What I was trying to express was:  if advice is not actually asked for then dont be surprised if the person gets cross when you give it!  And that goes for all walks of life, up to and including the net and public message boards.  0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• espencer Posted : 7/18/2007 12:40:15 PM I opened a new thread to speak about a similar situation, not the particular one that had the thread locked but similar, just to see if is a good idea to add a new dog while having problems with another already and we dont get off topic here   [linkhttp://forum.dog.com/asp/tm.asp?m=402624&mpage=1&key=񢓀]http://forum.dog.com/asp/tm.asp?m=402624&mpage=1&key=񢓀[/link] 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• RidgebackGermansShep Posted : 7/18/2007 12:48:06 PM To answer the original question...what do i want out of the forum? I want info on dogs, i want to share things my dogs did, hear what others did, see their pictures, etc. I love it that i'm not the only one in the world who is a little obsessive over my dogs. I also sometimes like to hear people's opinions on movies and what not. what i don't want to participate in is the online drama. Maybe it's just me, but it all seems kinda weird. But, anywho i absolutely love this place...especially when i get to see pictures 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• probe1957 Posted : 7/18/2007 12:50:54 PM Fair enough, Gina.   The concept of this board and all boards like it is DISCUSSION.  At least, that is the way I see it.  It is absolutely absurd, to me, for someone to post something on this board, or any board like it, and not expect their comments to be discussed.  It is then, somewhat beyond absurd, for that person to take offense when it happens.  [8|]   If someone wants to post a diatribe and not have it discussed, a discussion board, like this one, is not the place to do that.  What that person is looking for is a blog.  This isn't rocket science stuff. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• DPU Posted : 7/18/2007 6:47:56 PM So what was all the red ink about after my post?  There is no moderator listed here so I think this section is free for all. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• glenmar Posted : 7/18/2007 6:55:55 PM Ummm, David, that's a bit like saying that since there isn't a cop standing on the corner, it must be OK to run the red light.  Rules are rules regardless of whether there is an assigned mod or not. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• DPU Posted : 7/18/2007 8:12:13 PM Depends whether the cop is looking, on foot, or in a cruiser.  []   You know what I noticed here.  There used to an area for private groups that was available to members.  What happened to that?  Maybe we should make a duke it out room there.  0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Personal Champ Posted : 7/18/2007 8:27:39 PM The only private group that exists on this board is for the moderators, where we can make a list, check it twice, trying to find out who's naughty or nice. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
