Well, just to fill you in, I am a newbie here on the forums since we got our little Border Terrier pup. Another newbie (pitbull owner) advocated the use of leather belts on puppies and children as a form of punishment, and it kind of upset me a bit. However, I refused to get drawn into a debate, and just ignored him. It would seem that this poster was quite prolific in posting, despite being new, and I think it resulted in him being banned. I
assume this same poster came back under a new name, purely just to reply to my other comment, since it was the only post he made (under the new name), and it resulted in him being banned again.
So I just wanted to thank the mods.
Not that I am particularly sensitive, but gleefully condoning such harsh treatment of little things just made me sad that there are people out there who seem to relish power and control.
