I'm a "pre-adopter"!!

Take a look at my "pre-adopted" greyhound's homepage:

Ugh... did these threads HAVE to un-burried!!?!?!?

oh i am so sorry! someone forwarded me the link and i did not realize this was an old thread.

my apologies.

It's okay.
Just these threads have caused a lot of un-needed drama and grief for many on here.. A lot of us would just like to see everyone from GT to post in other threads and contribute to Pet Talk.. but with these threads popping up all the time, they tend to just stick around them.

I haven't said anything for a long time on these threads but I'm going to state my opinion on it now... I see nothing wrong if people want to keep discussing this as long as it's fairly civil and not nasty. I do think it should stay in threads specifically started to discuss it, I was saddened that Robyn's thread about Gibson turned into a debate thread on both sides.

When I lose interest in a thread, I just stop opening it. Obviously I opened this one again so apparently I still have some interest in what people are saying about it . I don't understand seeing a thread and opening it and responding just to say you don't want people to post to it anymore or that you don't want to see the thread anymore. And that isn't meant as an insult to anyone or aimed at anyone in particular, I've seen it happen a lot. I just honestly am puzzled by it. I can understand posting to a thread that wasn't meant to discuss it, but this thread and the other one, to me, seem meant to discuss it. I just feel we should let people discuss and talk about it if they like and if/when I get tired of it, I'll personally simply ignore the thread

*Edited to say: I would understand if Karen or Paul felt it should go to the Doghouse but that is their call, so far they seem to feel it's okay here. I personally don't mind but if a lot of people feel strongly that it should be moved, perhaps they should PM a request about it? I don't think it's fair to blame the people who want to post on it.

Well *I* am not blaming anyone for anything,, I didnt bother to read much of this thread,,, its not something I personally agree with or know a whole of,, but seeing what i did see,, I just thought it was sort of controvsial,,, thats why I suggest the dog house,,,, but hey,, I dont own the list,,,, youre right ,, if Karen or Paul feels it should go there,, it would have gone..... Mine was just a thought,, opnion humble as it is,,,
