    It's more difficult to judge intent on the web,that's why there are so many flame wars. Tone and inflection are lost, sometimes you really don't know or overjudge the writer's intent.

    Diplomacy

    I think there is diplomacy, lack of diplomacy and personal attacks. Personal attacks seem to be dominating this blog too much lately.

    Although I think many people do not get involved in the constant pissing matches here, that does not mean they disagree with Shadow's thoughts and opinions. I have probably joined the great silence majority because I do not find it is a worthwhile use of time or energy to try to prove my opinions are the only solutions and are always right. It would be nice if people just stated they opinions, and let others do the same, I think that is freedom of speech.... arguing over every point that does not agree with you is not freedom of speech, it is just constant aggressive behavior by someone who does not seem to have too much going on in their life. So they argue with everyone on here.

    This thread like many on here, has gone from concern for pets, to "who is right" bantering."

    I hope you are a lady of your word: "Im done here. :-)"

    I'm rather surprised the Moderators / Owners haven't stopped this already.
    Or given a infamous 'red mark' to a certain poster.
    Heck...I've still got a 'red mark' just 'cuz I questioned the veracity of a person's post several YEARS ago....the mark is still there, yet I have also received many "Thanks" from other posters since then.
    Yet this one is continuing on and on and on......how come?
    Just wondering out loud...(.sorry Larry, not referring to you, of course....)
    Ayo ayo,
    Don

    I think the red marks are reputation points given by users. I have 2 of them, 10 or so green.
