I have only just seen both threads, as they happened overnight for the most part.
I didn't want to comment on either and drag things up again, but I think you handled the situation excellently. I've looked at the picture myself and it's clear that the only part of the turtle that's trapped is the shell.
I think the situation got out of hand, but I'm also disappointed if byerssusan is leaving because of how her boyfriend stirred things up. Hopefully thing will calm down again!
Love the picture!

I have just read both threads. Again didn't want to comment and drag things back up.
Yvonne, you handled the situation completely 100% right.
You are amazing and look after all your turtles and tortoises so well. I always look up to you and your advice is always listened to and followed, to the best of my ability, by me.
The situation defiantly did get out of hand and I think the most part of it was jealousy.

I can not believe this has happened to you. You have always been a fair and understanding person. I wish there was more I could do.
I have always loved this Forum, until tonight. I hope this never happens on Tortoise forums again.

See, you're not only the food goddess to your tortoises, but this forum's goddess as well! Don't let a lifetime of being the Lord's shepard to the countless creatures you've saved be tainted by a couple people that "don't get it".

what the *#&@ happened? lol
I still can't believe that happened! I think you handled it amazingly!
I must of missed something, but whatever it was I know that when i asked questions, you were the fastest one to reply and sometimes the only one to reply!
I must say I'm impressed, you handled yourself far better than I would have.
Hey Yvonne, You know we All Love You,and what you do. I didn't feel you or your actions needed defending. so I stayed out of the conversation. But what surprised me was that no one caught on that it was a tag team attack by Freddy10 and Byersusan, I wouldn't be surprised if they weren't sitting next to each other during some of this. If I'm wrong so be it I have been wrong before, Len

I feel so bad that you have been treated so disrespectfully, its very disappointing and that kind of inexcusable attitude and rudeness turns me off- whatever their intentions.
Thanks for taking it all so well-It really shows your integrity!!
Always will appreciate your contributions and honesty on this forum!!Smile

I just saw the thread of the pic and WOW I just can't believe it!!! I can't believe how some people can be so disrespectful and are just looking for trouble!!! Yvonne, you are amazing and you are one of the biggest tortoise/ turtle lovers on this forum. You handled the situation perfectly!
You kept very cool during all the nonsense, I was just sitting there reading as each comment came through and thinking to myself, how the heck can she do it? I was sitting there biting my tongue keeping myself from commenting. Kill them with kindness Yvonne! And thank you for all you do - we all know how much you truly care for each and every tortoise and turtle you come in contact with!

Agree with all of the above.
The picture was funny and cute. Anyone who does not have these kind of things happen with their torts is not being truthful. We all chuckle, and then learn from sharing.
I remember your pics about the rebuilding of your pond, which was amazing.
I, too, was shocked by the way the thread took the bizarre and surreal turn that it did and I thought you were as cool as a cucumber.

Glad things cleared up... and looks like those two are meant for each other.
I think that you did a beautiful job in handling that, and only wish that I could keep my cool and grace as well as you did.
