Actually maxpup, you really can't trust anyone because of status. It takes just 500 posts to become a "senior" member. Given time, you will see that there are some people on here who give very valuable advice. Some are breeders, some are trainers, some work in rescue and some just have years and years of experience with dogs, cats, etc. And everyone has different opinions on how things should be done. This is why you should always listen to advice and trust YOUR own judgement and that of a trustworthy VET. (I say trustworthy vet, because some vets are better than others, some vets are just greedy and some vets are inexperienced)

As far as *multiple personalities*, yes people are that bored and/or that immature. Typically, a troll is one who starts trouble.....

Not to say that everyone here doesn't give advice, but I have seen some posts where it really does look like someone knows what they are talking about, only to see other posters start posting about how that advice is "bad." Mostly the regulars know what they are doing, one way or the other, and you will notice that they genuinely care about animals. Even though there maybe 5 different ways of doing the same thing :)

As always, thanks for the advice. To answer your questions: I do have a few people I look for replies from. I have a wonderful Vet....He is very patient,always available, and great with all the animals we have taken to him. I do always seek his advice before I do anything with the animals. Thanks for the heads up...

Maxpup- you can also look at the "date joined" below a person's name. Anyone who has already reached full member status in less than 2 months has posted a lot. So either they have a lot to say or else they have a lot to say about nothing. I can usually tell by the tone of the reply or the lack of grammar including "text messaging" abbreviations that you are dealing with a kid. It is frustrating when you waste time with one of the trolls but sometimes it's a way to kill time if you have some. We do have some younger members who are still legitimately trying to get help with questions or trying to be helpful. Really if you pay attention, you can tell the difference.

Thanks Maxandallie... I have been paying attention to what is being posted. Like I have said before, I do enjoy reading the posts and giving any little info I can. I am actually reading some with my 9 year old. She wants to be a vet. She loves learning things. Some of the posts, sad to say, I can't read with her.

Sadly, we have had many who suffer from MPD. Gets a bit amusing when they begin to argue with themselves.

On the IPs and several computers in the home...Our daughter and her family had been living with us for 2 years and just moved out 2 weeks ago. I have a desktop, hubby has a desktop, I have a laptop, my daughter & her hubby both have desktops and daughter also has a laptop. Six computers. We all had the same IP addey. Fixed IP, with a router = same IP addey for any computer using that access to the internet.

Even if they were to be different, it would be within a set range from the same hosting company. The ones in question are not.

Now if I log on from work, the IP is through a different hosting company and is therefore totally different.

Opie, Opie, Opie,

I am very disappointed, thought you really wanted information, and honestly thought you would become a member that with, (here's that word again) Maturity, and a little more knowledge, you would be a great contributing member. That crack about "high and mighty" certainly proved me wrong, and I am sorry for that, don't think I will be reading your comments again, its a waste of time.
Be kinder than necessary because Everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle!

It only seems that way to you Opie, because you have to look up so high to see above the rim of your playpen......

If you are a dog and your owner suggests that you wear a sweater, suggest that he wear a tail.

Opie, I have answered your question, patiently explained the steps and procedures and others have discussed their opinions. Your comment really was uncalled for.

Opie, since when are facts RUDE? Now your comments are rude and uncalled for. You might consider taking it down a notch or two unless you'd like to find out how banning works...from the personal perspective?

Exactly. Each computer has a unique MAC address (actually, each piece of hardware for connecting to the internet has a unique MAC address - my computer has 3: one for a modem, one for an ethernet adapter, and one for a wireless card). Multiple computers can quite easily share the same IP address, though, as was pointed out.
