The site that I was referring to the moderater and the Administerater are for the most part the probulm 90% of the Canadian bashing is coming from them! So far it looks like its not a big deal its just a bunch of jurks on one site.

On the plus side if they all stay on that one forum they're more or less contained

West hill has a bit of a point there. There's at least one very well known site with a stupid attitude problem from the mods themselves. Because of that i rarely visit Bo... oopss, was i gonna give names away?!?

The reason this site is so great, is it is very easy to moderate.

Moral seems high among members, threads like this that don't get out of hand are great. It isn't hard to moderate when the members keep the site on track. There are many people that help this site to move along in a good way - that helps a lot in my opinion.

Theres always gonna be somethin' between countries... not all sites bash 'cause your canadian, some people are ignorant, however, since that happens, no one can stereotype all Americans as ignorant and stupid... personally, I find it really stupid to bash over the net, but it happens

I actuall resigned from the forum in question and cancelled my order with him as a result of the veiws expressed there. I've traveled enough to know that the average American is pretty cool, but I just think that forum has a bit of an ego problem.

He lost my business. I've bin talking to that guy since last Jun about two albino retics that I was going to buy, he was going to throw in a tiger to for $ 4000 US. Oh well anyone that thinks they can help me I'll be looking to spend some money this spring.

I know exactly which forum some of you are talking about, with Mods who have attitudes.

The best part is, that forum is one of the BEST out there for those with a sense of humour. It's one of the only forums that doesn't tolerate oversensitive "you offended me" BS, yet is still REALLY popular. If views husbandry wise are expressed that they do not agree with and argue with you over it, the general point is they enjoy debate, arguing etc. And when it gets to the point you want to tell them to shut the hell up, they laugh. THAT'S why its hilarious. If you can't take the heat sort of thing.....but if you roll with their punches, that forum ROCKS! I think its a breath of fresh air and visit daily.

I agree...I have never considered checking out a different site


at times it is difficult to get breeder recommendations here since I am in the US, but I would never consider getting my info from another site

the wealth of knowledge here is unreal and I appreciate the politeness that you all present us with

sometimes we're not too welcoming of underknowledged beginners, however there are a few that are always willing to point them in the right direction, and this happens on every forum anyways

I don't see why any American would have anythign bad to say about Canadians...hell, I'm damn near Canadian anyways up in North Dakota

if we still have shane, and everyone else, keeping this site up, i dont see a problem, it seems like this site has been very sucessful keeping people from bashing canadians, i bet most of the people here are canadians i could be wrong, but we should thank the Mods, Admin etc, cause they respect everyone here, unlike other Mods they kick you if they dont like how you are

I think it goes well beyond sense of humour. I'm not easily offended at all, but I think alot of what goes on their is elitist, nationalistic, and absolutely ego driven. It seems to go beyond liking a lively debate and just waiting for the next person to cut down. Not a great enviornment to learn in. And yes it's popular but so are the Back Street Boys...
