Non-pet related posting soapbox

Maggie on My Blog - Fri, September 21 2007

Maggie's dad talking...I admit that I've gotten sucked into the talking like my dogs thing, which I also admit is cute and fun.

I will say, that I have no problem with owners or discussion leaders maintaining human profiles in order to provide a level of differentiation when it comes to serious topics and/or advice to one another regarding our pets.

I DO, however, feel it is inappropriate to use human profiles to post or blog about topics that have NOTHING to do with animal or pet awareness. It is my opinion that this site is meant to be 100% dedicated to our pets or animal causes in general, whether that be goofy socializing or serious discussions between animal lovers.

Am I out of line with these thoughts?

Maggie...Jude's mom here. I'm in agreement with you. I think this is a site for pet related topics. If you would like to discuss something else totally different, then you can PM someone and talk to them as much as you want. Or, participate in a different forum.

Nope, I agree on that, too. Isn't that what myspace and facebook are for?

i agree. i had suggested a while back that when anyone posts something that is not pet related, to put OT (for off topic) at the beginning of their post's title. also, only put off topic things on blog, under your human profile. i've not seen one person do this, so maybe no one read my suggestion. all i can say is that this site is OUR site, and we control what is kept on the board. if anyone feels something is not appropriate for this site, flag the post. once it is flagged three times, it will disappear off the site. just my suggestion. :)
