It doesn't bother me, I usually go to New Posts first when I come here anyway. I, then go search the others too.

I agree. It seems we younger members get blamed for alot of stuff on pettalk, and that bugs me.

I could care less where it is posted. I agree with k9soul. It doesn't bother me at all.

If I see something that interests me, I'll open it, no matter where it is. It doesn't bother me at all either.

I like seeing pics of everyone's pets.

Add me to the list, it really earks me when this happens!

Anyway it doesn't bother me because I have done it before in the past, I am sorry that it makes so many members annoyed.

I just have to say that you younger people are a whole lot smarter than I am when it comes to computers and such. I personally think we have some wonderful younger members on this board. The younger members bring a fresh perspective to the table.

Me too.

I understand that some people can get confused about where to post things if they have several different kinds of animals, but still, it's really not so difficult, is it?

Only today, I saw a perfect example: Someone had replied to a thread in Cat General, and obviously assumed it was about a cat! It wasn't.

Since we're so many members now, we can't all keep track of every single pet here. It's just impossible.

I'm glad I'm not the first person to comment on this...

Count me in with the group that says it doesn't bother me. I too go to new posts first. I'm just happy to see photos of all the animals, birds, fish, etc.

Yeah it doesn't bother me either, I just think "oh well, they didn't post it in the right section, just a simple mistake. No one should get overly annoyed with it. I also agree that PetTalk sometimes seems to blame the younger people for problems alot, just because someone is young doesn't mean they have any less knowledge of the site or computers. I'm 19 and I can't remember ever posting anything in the wrong section, but if I did it would be accidental and I wouldn't have done it to annoy anyone. I think younger people should stop getting blamed for so many things. My mom is 45 and she doesn't even know how to use the internet properly, much less a website.

EDIT: haha sorry I just read that other thread that is about blaming younger people and it made me feel better

**momoffuzzyfaces** · 01-30-2007, 02:38 PM

I'm guilty!!!

If it's about some critter or bird in my yard or something. Since they aren't my "pets" I post them under general.

**Husky_mom** · 01-30-2007, 02:51 PM

I think (at least my point of view) referring the blame to youngsters is mainly to young members not young of age.......or so i see it that way.......

I myself as a young member in any forum I often post threads someplace else, but then as i got used to it and learned the different section I grew in the forum

so no need to feel bad........and reading something that should be on another section doesn´t bother me at all.........been there done that.......so I think i can understand and let it be..........

i usually read the generals (all four) and go back till the day i last went....and later i get on new posts to see all sections adn read from there on.......

I could be one of the guilty parties, but I'm still learning the ropes. I just posted a thread about the Wal-Mart incident and I don't know if it's in the right place. I'll try to be more careful if I did make a mistake.
If it's in the wrong place, would Karen be kind enough to put it where it belongs please...Thanks.

**RedHedd** · 02-20-2007, 04:51 PM

I don't do the "new posts' thing as it's too much and my time is limited. I tend to hang in the Cat section and if I have time, I'll visit General and the DogHouse. I sometimes wonder why there are cat or dog pics posted in General, but then I think .... whatever, they probably don't know.
