And we have yet another Ecollar conversation locked because of rudeness and name calling.  Will it ever end?  Why can't people be civil about this topic? 

Let it lie, Lou.

If an administrator wants to tell me to stop trying to educate people I'll stop.  Until then the 6-8 people who tell me that the rest of the Forum members don't want to hear what I have to say, don't speak for 4,000+ people. 

If you're an adminstrator just let me know.  I always abide by the rules of whatever forum I'm on. 

The other members are bored sh-tless of the constant raming down our throats..  ( sorry admin but I am fed up reading this day in day out these days)

I tell you I like a good read but you lot are taking the biscuit this week.

>The other members are bored sh-tless of the constant raming down our throats..

Charming language I must say. 

Nothing is being rammed down your throat.  You're not required to read anything that's posted here.  If you were required to read it then it would be appropriate to say that it was being rammed down your throat.  But since you *choose* to read this it's clear that no one is ramming anything down your throat. 

In any case you're not speaking for 4,000+ forum members. 

Lou,

I can assure this is the first time in all my years on hear I have felt the need or used it )  and I am sure others can back that up.. I am not a user of bad language.

I come and read all the new posts almost daily and actually only scanned yours because I know the content anyway. I have been sick reading them the last few days and how these threads are dominating the board.

And for your info   you have had your opinion over and over and over and over again these last few days  

>I can assure this is the first time in all my years on hear I have felt the need or used it )  and I am sure others can back that up.. I am not a user of bad language.

Isn't denial a wonderful thing?  You *are* a user of bad language and you just demonstrated it.  Feel free to blame it in me but you're the one who lost control. 

>and how these threads are dominating the board.

Since they are so horrible that you are unable to control your language why bother to read them.  According to some, no one is reading them.  If that's the case why do you care? 

>you have had your opinion over and over and over and over again these last few days  

So have others, so what?

Lou, I think perhaps what has got the previous thread locked and generated the reactions seen was the threat of legal action.

If legal action threats are going to be tossed around everytime someone hears something they don't like, then it puts others off posting and the discussion/debate is lost.

I'm surprised that the thread wasn't locked at that point to be honest.

As you know this isn't the first time or the first forum where threats of this kind have been made and the thread locked.

Lou it's up to us to protect,show the other side to the other members who dont have the stomach to post, from your horrendous methods

Like i've said to the other members before IF WE IGNORE YOU,HOPEFULLY YOU WILL GO AWAY

So please everyone,lets stop feeding this pair!

>Lou it's up to us to protect,show the other side to the other members who dont have the stomach to post, from your horrendous methods 

It's interesting that you now think that you speak for 4,000+ members of this forum.  Even if only ONE person out of the 4,000 wanted information it's improper of you to try and block it. 

"IF WE IGNORE YOU,HOPEFULLY YOU WILL GO AWAY" 

Please please please  

For gods sake Lou, I have NEVER commented on these collar things, but can you not let it drop?  People are NOT interested in them, and those that are can pm you personally, that way NO threads will be locked and you will have no cause to complain.
Dawn.

Lou - please read the thread VERY PROUD

Margot

And these thread get locked by Admin - who own the board - because members object to content.

Isn't it a pity that the Poll facility doesn't work. Maybe if it did, Lou would have to believe what he would see, in back and white.

My vote......Not interested in Electric Shock Collars.....ever.

Lou, when you joined the site you agreed to abide by the Terms of Service. I draw your attention to Point 6:

"Be tolerant of others views and opinions. It is far better to agree to differ, than to continue an argument ad-nauseum, when it is obvious that neither party will change their viewpoint."

Please abide by the rules of this Forum.
