"The fact that animal libber extremists like yourself and Pale are
trying to turn it into yet another animal liberation thread,
is fairly obvious. As if we havent had enough of those."

Oooohhh.......Yabby, does this mean that you will cease corrupting and contaminating threads and articles which compassionate professionals and posters raise simply to plead for the humane treatment of our defenceless animals?

The last animal welfare thread on 12/10/07, "Midas McGauran and his Mixed Grill of Misery", you posted a "mere" TWENTY EIGHT times to distract other readers from the topic.

Since you regard compassionate people as extremists and cry-babies, why do you, without exception, dominate and hog their threads?

This thread has been started for the sole purpose of discussing the thread posting limit. To introduce other totally unrelated topics is thread crapping, pure and simple.

I am very sympathetic to the treatment of animals, and their mistreatment saddens and disgusts me. But this thread's purpose is not to resolve or discuss that subject. We all know that, so why don't we all accept it and stick to the topic at hand.

And don't anyone come back and accuse me of a lack of caring for animal welfare. If you do then you are showing an extremely high degree of ignorance.

Although I'm sympathetic to the cause of animal welfare, in the case of dickie (and others who seem similarly fixated on whatever topic it is) I'd suggest that two posts per thread per day are quite enough. This is because I'm also sympathetic to the welfare of humans.

And you have a good sense of humour.

If there was a two post a day limit I would not have been able to say that today. :)

Fair enough comment. I think its just that we are so used to debating yabby on the cruel live Animal Export trade we simply forget which thread we are on.

Point Taken- We do aplogise.
.

Have you ever thought that may be his way of contributing towards helping both farmers and Animals.
No- We dont agree with much of what he argues either.
However hes got one thing right.
We should put up or shut up.
You and I know the Government and Industry will NEVER change things.
Yabby is saying- Ok you animal lovers lets see you put up a viable alternative.
THATS where he wins every debate hands down.
Hes right of course.
We either get involved in reopening plants here or except there will ALWAYS be the cruel live trade which WILL tripple!

.
Ooops Sorry all. I did it again/.
Dickie why are you posting here on Animal Welfare instead of your own thread?
Yabby is waiting for your reply to his post and we ARE being rude to others,.
Sorry buddy but if we gate crash every thread nobody will want to hear the truth.
We respect your efforts and encourage you to continue with your thread.
I hope GY increases the posts but lets face it- We all get the same number at least.

Ok Everybody
What about asking GY to add a IM system to OLO so posters can- Take it outside if they wish to debate for hours and hundreds of words?
Just an idea.
Nite all
