Very sad advert

I am quite disgusted by this thread.
What started out as a well meaning post turned into a nasty attack.
Will all of you just wind your necks in and have bit more respect for individuals and their opinions!!!

If you read the thread properly you will see that everybody was merely offering sane advice about the level of Natalie's SELF PROCLAIMED experience (or lack of) and the suitability of whether she should be taking on a youngster. Natalie herself was the one who came back in a ball of flames and bad mouthed everyone. Up until then everybody had commented (including myself) that she seemed like a very well meaning and nice person.

I quickly changed my opinion, as did others, when her true colours came through.

I am enjoying this thread - and it appears Natalie is too - since she keeps posting.

:D Brilliant!

And thankyou, Natalie, for this thread. I've just come out of hospital and found being at home very boring until I read this thread, it kept me busy for a while! :)

It's actually Magicmadge who's the OP.

Get well soon, hope you're soon feeling better. :)

Come on ABC! If I was one of those sleuthy types and had time,I'd look back on ABC's posts and see if they are friends/in it together...but can't be bothered..cos I'm so boring;) Off to level manège now-no rest for the 'boring old farts' ;)

No, ABC is a really lovely poster who I think would be more than capable of taking on a foal like this :) Unlike some, she is experienced and capable of reasonable discussion ;) I'll pop her a pm, she is normally pretty busy and doesn't come on here all that often. Teenagers aren't all bad you know :D
 
I've just read through this whole thread and had quite a good laugh actually!
I have my opinions...they have changed from the start of the thread to the end, but no comment :')
 
I actually find it hilarious how people are still going on about this and how you judge people through a bloody forum LOL! But im the one whos laughing in the end with all the PM's im getting about you all saying how rude you all are and "old hags" "nasty cows" etc etc wowww if only you lot knew! ;) OH and yes ABC is interested

You will cringe when you are older and look back at the way you are acting. But don't worry - we've all been young and defensive. Been there got the t-shirt. You will eventually learn in life that older people (and no - I am not THAT old - I am only 31!) do speak, in the main, a lot of sense and are worth listening to. I only wish I had listened when I was a teenager and I would have saved myself hours of regret and embarrassment. But it's all part of the learning process.

As for the 'rude' posters, you are the only one who has sworn and been generally offensive to people offering you advice. Your knee jerk reactions are lightning quick! ;)

As for judging people from a forum, were you not judging by calling everybody nasty ******* CRUEL people? And these 'PM's' you seem to have had - are they not judging by calling other posters nasty and 'old hags'??

There's such a word as hypocrisy - look it up.

Oh - and I thought you got bored ages ago and weren't going to come back on this thread? You say you can't believe people are still posting -yet you are still posting?!

Well....we do know. You've just told us! ;)

And I for one, couldn't care. I don't take anything said on here personally. No one on here (par a couple) knows me so I can take what they say with a pinch of salt!

ETA - Thanks, Fiona. Was in for 10 days, but out and feeling ok now! Went to see the horses this morning, less that 12 hours from discharge, think I'm nuts :D
 
The only rude comments have come from yourself Natalie. Up until you got personal all anyone did was try & point out that right now it wasn't the best plan. And I have no respect for anyone making personal insults via pm, doesn't show much courage in their own convictions, so couldn't care less what anyone has pm'd you & called me or anyone else.

I am. :o Proper old hag, me. :p:cool:

Moomin1 said:
She is just showing her age, isn't she? I actually am starting to feel quite sorry for her - we've all been there and behaved like this when we are young and childish.:o

True, but the trouble with the internet is a person's childish misdemeanours will stay there to haunt them for years to come :eek:

all about Romeo said:
So is anyone going to buy said pony tilly then??
Click to expand...

I believe there are interested parties, who fairly sensibly don't want to blurt everything out over the internet. I wouldn't be surprised if the dealer gets rid of the filly to a 'friend' or passes her through the sales though to be honest :( It's most likely not worth the 'hassle' for him, after all there are plenty more where Tilly came from :mad:
 
To be fair, I think there were a few posters making no comment about Natalie, rather that giving someone you believe to be neglectful money to fund another couple of DD ponies is not helping welfare or rescuing anything.

Why is it that the negatives prove so much more interesting online?

Im not being touchy about the whole experience thing. It's just boring now, that is all :)

*sigh* You really don't do yourself any favours... There really is some merit to the idea of making a decision and getting on with it quietly instead of dragging it out over the internet...

Natalieshort said:
Yes apparently he has had somebody report him
Click to expand...

That would have been a quick visit...

Not that it would be a bad thing if a reputable organisation did stick their beak in and check standards if the photo of the little filly is any guide to general condition...
 
Its annoying im still getting email alerts now, ive heard of all your opinions, advice, critism etc. can we leave it now il be suprised if there is anything else to talk about
