can I plese ask everyone to do something

Ive noticed we all ahve been a bit hard on newbies [im not talking joemoe he deserved all he got] I ahve been hard on them too. But not everyone who walks in with a pregnant dog for example necessarily meant for what happened to happen, on one post she was actually given the dog unaltered and was left with the aftermath.

I feel as strongly about backyard breeders and responsible pet owners as everyone here.

but we really need to step back and remember that not everyone is a troll, or here to get us riled up, and sometimes newbies really do ahve stupid questions that they need answers too.

Id rather answer a dumb question then hear of another dog suffereing due to their owners ignorance.

im not meaning to rant, just pointing out that we can wait a bit before jumping on then and assuming them irresponsible, we still can inform the uninformed and help them become responsible pet owners, without jumping on them and assuming them a troll.

thats my 2 cents, i hope it doesnt upset anyone as that isnt my intention, nor is my intention to point fingers or say im better then anyone else, im just as bad and jsut as good as anyone here
