a great post strapper,, "all members are responsible for their own posts" i,e. p,b rules,, any guests looking in, could be anyone, some taking an interest in pigeons, what they see , could either dis-courage them, or encourage them, in the hobby of general pigeon keeping/racing/showing of pigeons etc. if the p,b members want the guests to see the pigeons and "pigeon basics" in good light, in my opinion, should post accordingly, off course there will be heated discussions at times, but as long as these threads are constructive , can only be good , as all are entitled to their opinion, within our p,b rules , and i believe we should respect our different opinions, without resorting to these "slagging matches" as strapper says.
there are far to many genuine members and interesting points on these marvelous /amazing birds than having to resort to , this so-called "slagging" by the minority,,only my opinion but as our rules say,, "each member is responsible for their own posts" maybe there are times, when we should pay more attention to this,,,and be a little more responsible
and a message to the guests,,,join ;D ;D
