this is also the friendliest board ive been on
and enjoy it quite a bit

i think craigslist is frustrating in itself
empathy takes over to watch an endless sad
which makes people react
like flagging, angry emails, arguing...
but ive also seen huge acts of kindness

most of the posts on cl leave a sour feeling
but situations do vary
and perfect matches can be made good for all involved (which is what its about)
despite the intention of the poster

Ok, Im going to finish here with my point about commodities and then Im bored with this thread. Cattle, Pigs, chickens, eggs, milk, horses, sheep, fish, rabbits (and more) are all commodities in our world. If a person does not like or believe in animals as commodities then said person must in fact be a Vegetarian.

I am trying to ignore you because I think you just like to stir the pot.


As for judging, you can all get on us for judging but how is it any different from you judging the size of someones bird cage as I have seen on here a million times. You have no clue if that is the cage the bird lives in all the time, but you still judge the person who posts the ad. Why is that ok? That is one example, I have others, but my point is we go by what we see, we ALL do it. So why are we being condemned on this one point?

You either need to provide links for that accusation or retract.

Well since I have traded a bird for a bird and a horse for a pony I am sorry but I am apparently just as bad as the person on CL wanting to trade a dog for a bird. I have felt this from the very first post. I am offended by most of it. I find much of it hypocritical and judgmental. Ive said my part, I have voiced my feelings, you have voiced yours. I am going to close the thread now as I feel it is beginning to go to far in the wrong direction. Which is nowhere.
