I am glad you posted Rose. I really do think you need a few moderators though. Simply to help put a stop to BS before it gets out of hand like this one did. Just because you have moderators does not mean you lose control or whatever your issue is with moderators. You simply give the moderators limited duties.

I started from scratch, I created the group and let new members join as they wanted. I DID NOT advertise in any other group, I never lured anyone from their group. I am so appalled at the "join my new group" invitations that have been posted here, without my consent or approval. I would never have allowed it anyhow. I'm surprised at the people that have taken it upon themselves to do a thing like this. This group has had its up and downs, and overall has been a very nice friendly group of people that have enjoyed chatting about Chihuahuas. That is the way it was intended to be. What has happened here has gotten way out of hand. I don't understand this. I have never had to step in and post this type of message, and I am sad to do so. I must say that I am very upset and must demand a stop to this. This group is about Chihuahuas, lets get back to that. If anyone is so unhappy that they wish to leave, please do so, but don't take my members with you. Anyone can start their own group, but don't come here to make an instant group by advertising out loud or behind-the-scenes thru private email. My group is not here for your personal use. I'm sorry, but this had to be said. Many people have posted their views on my "moderation" of the group and many have made wrong assumptions about me. I understand this, since most people think I'm never around. But this doesn't mean its and open door for anyone to take over. ~Rose OWNER OF CHIHUAHUAS YAHOO GROUP ------------------------------------ " Lets talk about our wonderful little friends! Join today!
