MyBabyShihPoo Member Posts: 206 From: Registered: Jul 2003	posted 03-13-2004 09:54 PM Hi everyone, I was hoping it would not come to this, but I have decided that it would be in my best interest to gracefully bow out as an AusPet board member. Sadly, this decision has been made due to the simple fact that I am thoroughly disgusted by a particular member's behavior and would rather not put up with it any longer. I just wanted to say that it has truly been a great pleasure speaking with many of you on this board! I have gained a lot of very useful and insightful information from many members here on AusPet, and I have thoroughly enjoyed sharing my experiences with those of you on this board as well! It was wonderful meeting all of you, and I wish each and every single one of you all the best!!! (Wishing the best for all of your pups as well! ) Sincere Regards, Kristi [This message has been edited by MyBabyShihPoo (edited 03-13-2004).] IP: Logged

Sunday Member Posts: 80 From:CA. USA. Registered: Nov 2003	posted 03-13-2004 11:29 PM Kristi, please don't go! This board would not be the same without you. Please don't let a self proclaimed expert keep you from sharing with those of us who enjoy your posts. You don't claim to KNOW IT All, and we need as much of that as we can get around here. To many people state their OPINIONS as fact. To be honest with you, I'm sick to tears of that myself. All of this is subject to disagreement and everyone is entitled to do just that (disagree). We can disagree without slamming each other for differences of opinion. I too grow weary of the personal attacks. Thus, the watching of my P's & Q's. I too have thought about leaving for that very reason. Instead, I refuse to read posts from certain people because I find their posts disagreeable and self serving. If you go, that leaves us with one less Non-know it all. We, non-know it all's, need to stick together! We need to welcome future non-know-it all's to the board and stick up for them when they get attached. So, will you PLEASE RECONSIDER? Precious's (non-know'it'all) Mommy, Sunday IP: Logged

Registered: Dec 2002	posted 03-14-2004 12:38 PM I had been gone for nearly a month, but I know at least or understand why you would not want to continue. Just ignore this persons posts. I need to find out what was going on. I can imagine though. Please stay. I, at one point nearly a year ago stayed away becasue of the outright meaness but it had gotten better. Please reconsider. ------------------ IP: Logged
bellasmommy Member Posts: 238 From:miami, fl, usa Registered: Oct 2002	posted 03-14-2004 02:00 PM puttin i know what you're talking about. mybabyshihpoo i would suggest you continue to be a member. simply because what you are experiencing has happened many times in the past on this board and i'm sure will continue to happen in the future. however, many other members here value your advice and truly look forward to reading your posts. in the end the members which are driving you away will most likely leave on their own, as the others in the past have done. either way, hopefully this will all get cleared up and in the near future.

sillysillypuppy Member Posts: 14 From: Registered: Mar 2004	posted 03-14-2004 08:16 PM Please don't leave!!! Although I haven't been on this site long, but I must say, your kind and warm thoughts show through your words. Unfortunately, my own situation with my puppy did not end up well, but I must say, your time and effort to give me advice in my time of need meant SO much to me. I hope you dont allow some idiot to discourage you from sharing your knowledge to someone else who might need you as I did. More than anything, your comments made me feel as though someone else understood/cared. Thank you and if you decide it is better that you leave the site, I wish you all the best. But nevertheless, eventhough I no longer have a puppy, I hope that you continue to help/ guide others as you did for me. IP: Logged
goofie_newfie686 Member Posts: 94 From:Canada Registered: Nov 2003	posted 03-14-2004 08:26 PM Kristi, you should consider talking to a moderator, i as well as many others would hate to see you go. and for the record, I and probably others have been offended by the rudeness on this board. many of the posts have been off topic and near personal attacks. This board is designed to get an opinion or advice on a topic dealing in particular with toy dogs. We're all adults (or near adults) and we should act like one by being respectful to one an other even if you dont know the person, its just common curtosy. I would like to tak this oppertunity to apologize to anyone who might have been offended by my posts, the one dog food string in particular. CLAIRE ALSO Kristi, submit the name of the person, mabye the moderator could send them an email to let them know that their opinion is out of line IP: Logged
PooGirl13 Member Posts: 89 From:NY Registered: Aug 2003	posted 03-15-2004 03:38 PM Kristi ~ Please, please DON'T LEAVE! I just got back from out of town and am catching up on the boards.... and, I must say I'm pretty angry at what I read too.. My two cents, and much of this you already know on a personal level, is that you are a very VALUABLE member here! Your posts are most informative and I can't imagine you not on the boards.. Please stay [This message has been edited by PooGirl13 (edited 03-15-2004).] IP: Logged

Sunday Member Posts: 80 From:CA. USA. Registered: Nov 2003	posted 03-16-2004 02:02 PM Kristi, can we assume that you've reconsidered?? I saw your advise for the depressed puppy (insightful and eloquently put as always) Does this mean you are staying? Sunday IP: Logged

Alabamamom1 Member Posts: 41 From:Killen, AL, USA Registered: May 2003	posted 03-17-2004 04:42 PM PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE don't leave. I am not sure what has happened because I haven't read the boards in about a week, but I know that you have helped Romeo and I through some difficult times and you advice has really meant a lot to me and others as you can see. You are one of the few who actually takes the time to leave extensive responses to others problems and I have to say that this board would not be teh same with out you. I hope that you know that we all mean it when we say that you should PLEASE STAY. I am so sad... Bridgett IP: Logged
puggleowner Member Posts: 228 From:Grand Rapids, MI Registered: Nov 2003	posted 03-17-2004 08:14 PM Ok scratch my last post- reading another post by the moderator I think I know the reason you want to leave and it has nothing to do with the post I was talking about....sorry!! The rest still applies though- you offer great advice in a very constructive manor and I really hope you choose to stay IP: Logged
MyBabyShihPoo Member Posts: 206 From: Registered: Jul 2003	posted 03-18-2004 03:40 PM Hi again everyone~ After having seen that a change occurred on the boards, and having spoken with a moderator, I have new found hope that things are getting better and shall continue to get better with time! Therefore, I am VERY excited to be back and posting again! The other day I decided to return to this board for viewing purposes only (OK, I'll admit it, I missed all of you and your posts! lol ). I noticed my farewell topic was "on fire," so I decided to take a look and see what replies had been posted. I want to send out a sincere thank you to everyone who replied, and I truly appreciate all your kind words...y'all are great!!! Anyhow, just wanted to say hi, thank you, and I look forward to posting here again!!! Have a terrific day, Kristi [This message has been edited by MyBabyShihPoo (edited 03-18-2004).] IP: Logged
