I am a lurker on BulldogsWorld's Discussion forum... I love to read on here, but have just recently come back after things got really nasty awhile ago...
I was so happy to see that ce and everyone was able to get Cody out of that horrible situation on on the road to happiness. In the last hour, LITERALLY!!!!, this board yet again has turned into a grade school exchange of how much one person is a jerk - complete with expletives!!
!!! Have we not learned anything in these last few months together?!?!?!
I am sorry. I have so much more to worry about right now! And it isn't if someone has a difference of opinions and who is going to cut him or her down the worst on the forum and make the webbie's job harder than it already is! We share a common love ~ BULLDOGS! Why don't we take a minute before we hit that POST! button and remember that!
I used to come here to see how everyone's bullies were growing, cute pictures and what antics they were up to. Not to mention to get advice for what ever Winston had managed to get into now...
Ce ~ I wish you the best of luck with Cody...Lisa ~ take care of that adorable little one and Milo, I am sure they will grow to making the most adorable puppy piles! Maggie and Sophie Anne, I will miss seeing your lovable pics..
With that, Winston and I are off. We will eventually find my way back here. But until then, hug your bullies tight, and realize why the heck you are here people!
</soapbox>
Meredith & Winston
-sorry for the length...just had to get that off my chest...it has been brewing for awhile now. let the flames begin ~ (sorry webbie )
Don't leave (and Jacob, come back)
We do sometimes get carried away, but for the most part, those contentious threads are about a once a month thing.
I've been guiluty myself, but I'm trying to discipline myself to just never respond to them. Just stick around and ignore them. The webbie is pretty good about locking them when they go too far.
I for one will miss your posts and your lurking ..smile
and truly wish you would reconsider leaving...
there are indeed times when it gets hectic..and the wrong issues are giving way to much time...and concern..but speaking for myself ....maybe you could just give it a bit of time ..emotions have been so high here..and I know that is alot of my doing with all the issues on the quest to help and heal Cody...
and sometimes when emotions are running high they just pour out..I read carefully your post...
...if I have offended you ever in anyway..please except my sadness to that and my I'm sorry's..but I sure hate to see you and your smiles ..leave..peace be your journey and always a bullie your companion...ce
Duh, meant to say JADE
brain overload lately
Hope to see you back later, Meredith ....
We need your smiley face talents!
(I'm no good at that stuff.)
We'll miss you
Don't be gone long.
Phew! Gary had me worried. =) n/m
I have not left?
Personally...
...I sometimes find it hard to not reply to some of the "pot-stirers." (..my motto should be "think b4 i hit post-button")
However you are right... ...We are here to share our bully-fun, knowledge and pictures!!
Anyway, maybe if we ignore them, they'll go away!!
Re: My $.02 (LONG)
I'm also a lurker on this board. Like you, I enjoy looking at all the wonderful pictures and reading the cute stories about all the bullies. For the most part, everyone on the board seems genuinely nice. Occasionally someone will come on the board that likes nothing better than to stir things up. I think if everyone could learn to just ignor these ignorant people they'd get bored and go away. Just thought I'd add my 2 cents also.
