Yes, because it will be an SL forum. Unless you wanted to go a childish route, there would be no reason for you to post a WL dog on an SL forum. You can place input on a thread, gladly. But there would be no reason. If you read my thread, Red Sable, you would notice I had stated 'posting what is their taste'. It's best to read something in whole before misconstruing statements or pointing fingers.

I quoted you sid, that is all.  I'm not pointing fingers.  It is obvious you think (and maybe you are right) that you have your own forum where you will not be plagued by the WL folk.

Zipping my lips....: )

Call it what  ever you want.  I don't get it personally.  If you have a problem with anyones breeding of the GSD, than you should be able to say it without someone getting their panties in a twist.  I have WL and it does not bother me one iota when someone points out faults with the way the WL are headed.  I'm thankful actually.  I certainly don't take it personally like they are attacking MY dog.

When one can't take critism over the way dogs are being bred, wether it be conformation or temperament, that to me is childish.

Hence why they made the forums, Red Sable. So that can be a possibility.

I never said I couldn't take criticism. I know what WL people think of SL dogs. However, to the extent they have taken it, is ridiculous.

Like that. I'm sorry, but that's just rude. Some dogs can't handle schutzhund. It's true. I've seen alot of SL dogs who aren't cut out for it. But to blatantly take it to an extent like that is offensive. And to have talked to a pretty highly regarded WL breeder on here who immidiately came to the conlcusion because I own SL's I couldn't handle a WL puppy - just sets the mood of most WL's demeanor on here - they don't like SL's. Including your own. Look, if you have a problem with it, take it up with the admin. But, do not bash on me for your dislike of the separation in SL and WL.

3 GSD forums, Training and OT, use them all. With the amount of people here it should be no problem to support these forums. Enjoy them all.

Do. Not. Like.

I really think it's just going to muddy the site, honestly.  Now, instead of somebody posting a new thread just twice, they'll post it FOUR times--just in case someone else only reads one of the forums. 

Gawd, what's the big deal? Why is it so hard to understand that most of us with a serious interest in showlines just might enjoy a friendly, positive forum where we can talk with other SL owners without being belittled for our choice in dogs? I'd think that WL enthusiasts might feel the same although I honestly can't recall many threads where the SL people gangbanged the WL people as they do us. I was gone from here for 3 years, so maybe I missed that? Read the thread Sid linked above. Were some of those posts really necessary and when the dust cleared, what did they prove? My dog's better than your dog? 

Fact...... Not everyone wants a dog with high drives and not everyone has the physical stamina to train a WL. I don't; Im old.  Does that mean I shouldn't own a GSD?

Sure it would be ideal if this could be a one-thread-fits-all-lines forum, but it's not. That ship sailed long ago.

Riddle me this - why would a died-in-the-wool WL person want to post to the SL forum? I certainly have no intentions of posting to the WL forum and will most likely never even read it.
