Now the board is slow and boring? Give people time to get past the upset.
Ask your dog questions, you might be surprised with the response.
Many members wanted this addition and now its a bad idea


Yup, it has become slow and boring for me.  Since many of the knowledgeable posters have left or don't post regularly,   the board lacks good content.   At the moment this is no longer the place that I would ask or answer any dog questions.  I've tried to help in the past but I'm kinda over it.

I don't think this new set up is how most of the members wanted it.  It sounded good in theory, but doesn't really work all that well.  It is too fractured.   Perhaps setting up the database into several sections, one for OT political posts / or non dog related stuff, one for general training questions then sections by breed.  For breed specific questions.

I guess my reasons for coming to the PDB are different than yours and others; and that's fine with me.   I don't come here as part of my "happy hour" to discuss politics, religion, or the crisis in the middle east.  If that's your reason for coming here, enjoy yourself.  I try to avoid those topics, but I don't mind what others do.  Have at it.  I come here specifically for dog related topics and GSD topics.  They have been hard to find lately.

I'm just disappointed with the changes lately, I expected more.

 Jim, there already is a section here for OT political posts.  Oli must've mentioned it somewhere.      Everyone should feel free to use it, here's the link:

Hodie was the target of a cyber attack-- true, but, she is gone on her own accord. And it is not the first time. Her detractor had apologized and then even agreed to voluntarily ban himself, (which he has done), and still SHE chooses not to post.

I see this as a transition time, stop complaining and contribute a post you would most like to read yourself on the board, and do it now, why don't you? See what happens.

acegs, I disagree this is the perfect place for this post, I'm not interested in all the BS that goes on in the General Topics, I come here because I am interested only in the dogs and at the moment there is very little going on.

This is a GSD forum is it not ????

dogshome9:
I dont see anything on this post that has to do it GSD.
Thats why i like to come hear and read & i stay away from the BS on the general forum

What I am seeing is people asking for help or comments regarding their situation related to their GSD and of the few I feel I can contribute to, I am the only one making a comment.  I know others have different opinions or suggestions so why am I the only one compelled to respond?  This board is only what we make it.

its spring the weather is great, we're all out playing with our dogs and doing much needed yardwork. puppies are being born and the show season is in full swing.......relax once summer rolls around and its to hot to go outside the board will be back to normal!

I took a vacation after all the drama of this winter and early spring on PDB. And SitasMom is right: My yard needed and still needs work, my dogs need work, the weather has been very nice and I am very busy off the 'Net.  I just dropped in to see who was still here. My guess is people will come back when it's too hot to be outside.

Just another reason splitting the database does not work Rowdy posted on the German Shepherd site for help on her dogs pedigree and only had 5 replies / posted on the General Topics and recieved 23.

I don't think anyone is looking here so why bother ?
