Can't we all just get along?

(S)he is? That is kinda mean and rude.

Yea they do. It offends me because @KingB is really nice.

That is just sad. Why would someone do that?

I agree

It goes way beyond joking about different breeds or kinds of animals. I know everyone has their favorite, that's awesome! But literally, the name calling(stupid, horrible human, troll) has to stop!

Thank you for your insight
Thank you for your input.
I have trouble with some political correctness.
When I am in a conversation and when it is over try to figure out what their answer actually meant.
When you post a picture of your bird or post your opinion be prepared for some others that might have a different opinion.
As a youth I was told to kill what I had and start over.
Hurt my feelings yes but best advice I received.
We all have different reasons for having poultry.
I learned a long time ago naming them and considering them as pets although vastly different than the reason I doesn’t interfere with my enjoyment and I should respect their enjoyment.
When you step away from your expertise and want to exhibit or raise your pet for meat eggs or sale as profitable enterprise you better have some thicker skin. mho

Exactly. Some of the most valuable resources on this site might come off a little gruff or grumpy at times, but many of them are not only literal wells of knowledge, some are actually genuinely wonderful people as well.

(This part is not going to be well received by everyone) I think some people at times get upset at the responses they receive, and instead of looking inwards first they just automatically write these people off as rude. Sometimes, those being considered rude, might just be right. I have had breeders tell me birds I was really happy with were shit, and while it hurt my feelings at the time, I am forever grateful for them taking the time to do so now.

I agree! There is no name calling needed in any situation. If someone is truly upset, they can simply stop looking at the thread instead of saying something mean.

 

[SulkyBantam]

I agree

Who calls him/her that though?

Where did the nickname the Meanshiner come from?

 

[ILoveDaffy]

I mean the Moonshiner is nice, so what led to it?

That was a joke, I think it came from Happy. She calls @The Moonshiner The Meanshiner.
