Yippie this place is hopping! No wonder the moderator took down the monthly stats. What an embarrassment from hundreds of posts every day to an average of 3 a day. ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!

I lopped off a ton of the old posts, at least 100,000 of them. It wasn't worth the cost to store them. The forum came within minutes of a decision to pull the plug and just focus on the classifieds, which is doing fine.
When you refer to embarrassing, to what are you addressing? All we do is host a platform. If people elect not to show up, it's less likely a technology issue, as that part seems to work just fine. I have my own opinions as I'm sure others do also, but my gut tells me this is a hostile environment that newcomers just don't care to invest their time.
I can't blame them.
If anyone were to ask me if it was a good idea to host a forum for breeders, I would tell them run in the other direction faster than you can say pluba.

People get as passionate about pets as they do about their own children. Then there are those who would baby a person who lost a child but shun someone who lost a pet. Hypocrites --the pet world is full of them. It's hard to know how to act around other pet people because you get kicked in the butt for having your own opinions. Also, I've seen this here and on BBC2, regulars attack others who do the same shit they do. Another example of the insincerity displayed on these forums. Another thing, you mod have not answered to those who called you for aid. You need to have your PMs sent to your inbox or something. If you were quicker on the draw when it came to fulfilling the posters' wishes, people might actually enjoy coming here again.
Edit to add: this is just my opinion. Deduce what you want from it. If I were the mod of a forum though, this is what I would do.

So true lets not forget ABC, D animal house & Myatruth. The board should be erased and started over all posts over a week old gone.
We all know who to blame. If order would have been restored with the conception of the Manifesto.. to the people who really needed it, this wouldn't have happened. Next time Mod, just ban the people who complain and you'll be in good shape for the next run of clicky's. It's a shame really, but to be expected on the WWW. It's funny too, because on other forums they keep their mouths shut for the most part.
It's gotten 'dead' before and probably will again. It appears that the only reason some had for coming here was to see what could be stirred up - and got more than a little nasty about it. When the other find out that they can stop in and say 'Hi' without getting jumped on, more will come back.

You Mean Individuals Like You Babyeagle? Who Was Banned From Here Not Once, But Twice And Is Here Yet Again, In Violation Of The Manifesto?
This Forum Died Because The Mod, Did Not Moderate, Or Appoint Mod's That Could Actually Do Anything.
There Are Plenty Of Really Good Breeder Forum's Out There That Function Very Well, With A Solid Membership, Healthy Topics And Good Moderation Teams.
You Would Not Know Them Babyeagle As You Have Been Banned From Most Of Them.
The drop in classifieds from Feb 2007 was due to the switchover from BuyBelowCost. We transferred over the BBC membership to the new Pluba system and in the process extended the BBC ads for 1 year on the Pluba site. Those grandfathered ads all expired on Oct 2007, thus the reason for the marked drop in classifieds on October 17th 2007, the expiration day.
The ads on the classifieds today are much more active and current than the old BBC, and they get far more distribution across the internet than the BBC ads did.
But, nice to know you are keeping track, although I have no idea why.
Good Morning Mod ! Why do you feel the need to explain yourself to members that cut you or your board down?
You need to stop that lol.
Remove the headache(s),then you might have a nice forum again. I do love the new look though.

Surely the Mod must realize by now that the demise of this forum and the drop in posts here was due to the direct horrific, inane, ugly and somewhat idiodic posts made by you Passion Wolf, not only once but twice.
You were the direct cause of people leaving this forum, whether you agree or not.
If you do not agree, start a Poll here to determine the responses privately.
If you reply to me directly about my post above it will fall completely on my deaf ears and my blind eyes, so there is no need to waste any of your energy in replying, however, should you wish to post a reply, rest assured it will only serve as entertainment and to further fortify the readers' opinions of you, your person, and your history with animals.
In simple terms for you to understand: you are and were the problem here.
Henny and what was your purpose of being on this forum? hmm lets see could it be the horrific, inane, ugly and somewhat idiotic posts made by you. When you went after TT and Tanya and Dinky . Who by the way are not members here any longer .
I took a brief break from here due to personal reasons; I just came back to make one comment and here you go again with your ranting .Henny get a freaking hobby besides harassing people that don't give two shakes of a rats ass what you think about them . The problem lies with the Mod not removing the trouble makers like you and, a few other trolls. If indeed I was the significant issue as you claimed . When I was gone, the so called goodie two shoes that have never made a error in their lives would have came back already.
Mod As you can see that Henny is here not to educate or to be taught so why not relieve Henny of her membership.

Wolf piss, you're a liar and everyone knows it. The members who have not been here have definitely not been around because of you! You shit on everyone! Just to let you know, I don't believe your canting posts about how people should not talk about those who are no longer members here. I think that's a game you are playing. It seems it's ok for you to talk shit about others who are not here anymore, but they can't do the same!?
Hmm this is from the same person that mention my name when I was gone . Oh please, give it a rest ok, no one force them to leave .Unless the mod banned them. If the ladies and gents can not play nicely they should not be allowed to remain a member. it has been proven. I am not the cause of this forum dying, unless it is because I left and no one has anyone else to bash. So what have you brought to the table for educational purposes? I think that old members that want to point a finger at me and claim I playing a vitim or game should look at themselves in a mirror first to see what they can do to change their own lives before trying to change other people they don't like.

hm. I'm looking back in the archives and I see nowhere I have mentioned your name when you were not here. I see where someone else has mentioned you, may be one of your alter-egos, and I said those members might just be waiting to make sure you're really gone. I don't know where you got that from. Anyway who gives a crap. Perhaps your mirror is distorted Linda. You do play the victim a lot around here, it's in every post you make. Maybe you need to polish that mirror and take a real good look at yourself. I still don't buy you having the philosophy of not mentioning people who are not here no more.
