Reply #22: It's horrible. They run down each other viciously. [View All]

They disagree on horse slaughter, training methods, how to care for your horses and just about everything you can think of. Not the majority of people, just the trouble makers. Most people are nice and helpful, but there are a few. And the few are enough.

They post bad things about each other, like so-and-so abuses her horses and you should never board there because the horses are in mud year round. Then so-and-so complains and starts a law suit and there is a counter suit. Threats and restraining orders ensue. Some claim the posters on the board have hurt their business. People are told not to mention individuals or businesses but they make veiled reference that the community can see through.

It's horrible and vindictive. People can be ugly no matter where you find them. Something about being online brings out the beast in a lot of folks.
