outrider, obviously the board is more important to you since your averaging the same amount of posts as i am per month, as a new member. probably 300 of mine tho pertain to a stud hound that was used purely for profit and not for the betterment of the breed, which has your average well ahead of mine in the long run, so be careful when giving advice since obviously you as you say "need to get out of the house" yourself. Also i have not mentioned anybody's name or hound and have not knocked any hound.outrider66 wrote:IMO if someone posted something on here recently. week ago 2 weeks whatever and it is bothering you then maybe the
beagle board is becoming to much of a part of your life and you need to get out of the house more or something. what
you see on here shouldnt make you be negitive or knock another man or his dog. this is a forum called JUST TALKING DOGS !
not a soap opera! imo theres more talk on here about cookin rabbit than dustin 1st place ribbons anyway! no competition
just people.one stud dog,orjunk females or traders and selling out aint gonna change the breed. and you aint gonna save it
either! its always been the same thing and the only thing that has changed is the breeding stock is much better.time spent in
the woods training is imo the best thing one man can do for the breed ! dawg up ! train some ! live in the woods with them
it wont hurt ya !
The more talk about rabbit cookin than 1st place ribbons is simple also, obviously you cant understand it tho so i will explain it to you. The "SERIOUS" 1st place ribbon chasers and "SERIOUS" stud dog advertisers DON'T SAY WHAT THEY REALLY THINK" on here because they want everyone to like them. When you go to a trial ya dont want to draw a judge who is a buddy of the guy who you just bashed his hound or his kennel among other things on the computer, or say something negative about a stud dog when you also have a stud dog on the board that's up for stud. When in this situation you either compliment all or say nothing at all. This is simple logic, and i am happy to explain it to you so you can understand it. It's what nice guys like me do. If ya dont believe me, ...... look back at some old threads and years ago when "members" said things they now know they should not have they have been edited with just a dot (.) and what they actually said is gone. So yes, ....this board is as you said it wasn't at times, a "SOAP OPERA". From me, at least ya will always get my honest opinion, then either like me or not. I don't care.
Lastly, im not so sure as you say the only thing that is better is the breeding stock since there is so much talked about the hounds of the past. The Top 10 Running Hounds post, i will bet has more hounds listed that have been dead for years and years than present hounds that are actually on the ground. Why is that? I have my opinion, but that's not the question at hand. The topic at hand is me dispelling your alleged beliefs of what i need to do or not do or even say, which i think i have clearly accomplished for you. So since your ranking right up there with me in average posts per month i say "Turn off that computer man and get out of the house". Ya might actually learn something.
