Just realized when i go to some adoptions.. i see people point out the dog isn't for adoption like

MINE! it's not for adoption. First of all if it's not for adoption then why the heck put it up :roll: like the adoption forums is for people to ADOPT the dogs or w.e not for you to post up NOT YOURS MINE MINE MINE!!! and sometimes the dog looks nice or nicer than the others perposely so that you go for others. Like i see some people say or flame about it but like come on it's an adoption topic not a "post-the-not-for-adoption-my-dog-mine" adoption topics..

what do you people think? (i know i've done it once but i see hundreds do it and now i guess it just bothers me to the point where i have to shout out and point it out to everyone)..

I've noticed this. But, you have to look at the tiny text at the bottom. Has the topic been edited? Did the owner decide they liked the design too much and can't delete the topic? That, or they could post their character(s) as a family member to the adoptable characters (such as a parent or sibling).

There are multiple scenarios you have to play. For example, I was intentionally making a character to adopt out yestarday. However, I liked the design too much and decided to build a character - thus evolving my new character "Diamondback."

That, or they just want to flaunt their character(s). A lot of people know that, if you post in the Adoption area, people are more likely to look at their topic(s). Therefore, attracting attention to their subjects.

I could be wrong - there could be something else. But I believe I have it analyzed well. -Shrug.- If anything, don't flame the user. Politely correct them and report the topic to a moderator as "wrong section."

Kirada i guess you didn't see correctly.. Shadowe was explaining about dogs that said MINE across it.. not parents?! .. and i also agree even if i haven't seen a whole lot but i've seen several that i was inclining to get but big arrows or MINE written in red huge letters like why put it in the first place if no one can get it :P it's called ADOPTION :P lol not this is MINE come see but can't adopt :evil:

and to what i've read.. it kind of doesn't make complete sense bout/towads her topic ?? :?

If I may,what the adoption host/hostess is doing is,taking his/her pick of the adoption litter,and leaving the rest for others to choose,what's so unfair about that?

Indeed we are. However, like with any social setting, you must be respectful to everyone. And I read the original post several times, F.Y.I.

My point was: maybe they post a character amongst the adoptable that they'd like to keep, or are keeping. As Foxy Jenna said.

Also, notice how I only posted once? That's because I really don't care. Why? Because the Adoption area isn't LIFE or anything. This whole SITE isn't. It's just that - a website where people seem to enjoy complaining more than they do helping each other. It's not too hard to tell the person: "Hey, this is and adoption area... If you don't want "your" character to be adopted, it goes a lot easier on the site if you don't post it in the adoptions." I tell you what, broke my arm with that one.

Now, I'm going on my way. Please keep this topic ON TOPIC and not as flamatory-prone.

ok not going out as planned about this topic.. okay i didn't really want anyone to flame.. first this wouldn't seem like a flametory topic... and btw Foxy Jenna i wasn't talking about pic of litter but still.. your adoption topic point is to "give" the pups away.. and BWS is right on the different breed or pictures and so on .. try to prevent flamming everyone
