To All BYCer's - Please Read, Enough is Enough

[Backyard Hencam]

I'm new to this site and, on the whole, have encountered pretty helpful folks. I've concentrated on two areas; new chicks and chicken behaviors, and it appears that most of the postings on those two subjects have been meant to be of assistance.

We need to remember, whatever our response, to be civil and constructive whether we agree to a previous posting or not. Those haughty, abrupt answers are helping no one. This website is supposed to be about learning and support, is it not?

If I encounter too many aggressive, contentious postings, I'm outta here!

Thank you for calling this to our attention.

Not to make light of something bad but come on people, clean it up!

I too ONLY come to BYC. This is the only forum I have ever spent this much time on and I really value it. I would hate to see it turn into one of "those" sites.

and before someone says "Well why didnt you hit REPORT when you saw it.."

here's my thought on that...

why didnt any one of the respondants in any one of the postings hit it?

They were posted quite a while ago on some occassions, again, I've not been on here since early Friday morning.....

So.. I've said my peace. I just hate to see things get ugly on here is all. I really enjoy BYC and everyone on it.

Remember that the key is to REPORT. Don't respond to the post or comment on it in any way.

REPORT
REPORT
REPORT

Let a moderator deal with it.

I havent seen those per se.. But there have been some very rude posts on here over the weekend.. I finally just shut my computer off... This is also the only forum I belong too and hate to see how much it has changed in such a short time..

This doesn't do anything to solve the problem.
REPORTING DOES. With a site this big, mods can not possibly check each and every thread. When there is a problem with one use the report button and they will deal with it.

It's so easy to be bad to the bone on the keyboard, ain't it?

I have reported a few... Personally if they get nasty I do typically leave, I have severe anxiety and some of these set off panic attacks.. That is why I shut my computer off.. Thank you for your response...

And I will Report in the future ..
