Aspen shavings

This is the kind of comment trust comes off abrasive man. There’s no need for that here, he came her for support not to be criticized. That kind response will just make someone mad and shy them away from the forum.

I respect your opinion, but disagree. People do come here to learn, and if OP isn't willing to do things with the animals best interest at heart than I will do what I can to correct that and teach other potential newbies.

Bottom line = keeping pets is a responsibility. If you can't properly care for them it's not fair to the animal to bring them home. These are living creatures who don't have a choice. WE have the choice...

You can offer the same advise and just choose your wording better so you don’t come off sounding argumentative. Your advise is 100% correct. You can clearly relate a point in many different ways without turning your comments into something that feels like an attack.

Again, I respect your opinion, but disagree. I simply stated facts and proposed questions.
If I was name calling, insulting or something of the sort, then you'd have a valid point, in my opinion.

It's a sad world we live in when people get butthurt over being corrected. Why ask questions if you don't want answers? And any which way, I don't recall you being a part of the conversation, so not sure what your issue is...

All I asked for was people’s opinion on aspen shavings...

Ok, well I tried to help you and your animal. I guess I'll just walk away from this thread.

From now on maybe I'll start asking people for permission to go above and beyond to try to help them and their pets...

Maybe try answering their question and give further advice if they ask for it... and do it in a way that doesn’t come off as rude and insulting.

I still don't think a single thing I said was rude or insulting.

Maybe I just need to accept that the world is going marshmallow soft. Seems way too many people are messing their Huggies when receiving constructive criticism.
Any way, I'm done with this thread and done with people who whine when people try to help.

Peace

I’m pretty sure I stated what the issue is, but with your mindset we are going to get absolutely no where with this conversation. I’ll state it a little more clearly. Your word choice and how you came across is like a personal attack. When I said the same thing to you last week about how I did not specifically address you, you Pm’ed me telling me that was not cool and I apologized but I understand you have double standards. Do me the favor and when you see my post don’t offer me any advise at all. If your cool with treating people like dirt with how you offer advise then that’s fine with me. You have obviously missed the point that true advise does not have to come off sound, attackish or judgmental. You want to give advise but can’t accept advise in return.

You talk about the world going soft but I can promise you in person you would think about talking to people a little differently vs over the internet.

I'll be happy to ignore you.

But I'm curious, can you site specific examples of how my "word choice came of as a personal attack"?? Cause I NEVER said anything about the person as a whole.

Show me EXACTLY what was "attackish or judgemental".

I'm happy to take advice. But simply whining isn't going to get me to change my mind. If you can show me anything that was rude, judgemental or a personal attack I will gladly eat my words. I don't treat people like dirt, and there's a reason my reputation rating is as high as it is. Sometimes people just need to toughen up. I am so sick of having to sugar coat, walk on eggshells and talk to people like they're kindergartners.

Just so you know, I've had multiple people PM me and say that they agree that I've done nothing wrong in this thread.

I don't have double standards, I just have no patience for people who say things like "I'm well aware" yet have done nothing right in the situation.
