I'm really sorry for the loss of your dog, but I'm wondering why my recent thread on the loss of my cat was filled with snide remarks and arsehole comments, and yet this one isn't. WTF?

Well, nobody made in stupid comments in this thread like comparing the loss of a pet with the loss of a person.

The only thing left to do is to go get a new one and start over.

Good luck!

No, he lost a dog. :roll:

I went back and read his thread and no where in there did he do that. Some of the posters in that thread were downright rude and nasty. The maturity level on this forum has noticeably dropped recently as many others have pointed out. :|

That's because school is out for the summer.

I was referring to a thread in which I got in a heated debate with someone who was comparing the loss of a pet to the loss of a loved one. I don't think I posted in Triumph's thread...this was a while ago. I was simply offering one possible explanation as to why his thread got crapped in and not this one. That is all.
