The profiler gave FREEDOM and opened new way to stay in the market to all the little breeders/sellers that, before this, were FORCED to rent/spam/auction etc etc etc.

We were talking about the product, not Callie's vs Rene. This is too big for us to handle and this are not our business at all. Unless we are all lawyers.
Lixy, you make a lot of excellent points as did JenniferShelby in her post. Best to stay focused on the discussion regarding the impact of the loss of the profilers and not on individuals.
We are a community, and for a strong community to thrive we really have to try and stay away from an us and them mentality, rene vs callie, seasoned breeders vs new breeders, large breeders vs small breeders, mall walkers vs profile shoppers. I feel put off by people telling me how I should experience KittycatS. How I should shop, How I should sell. How I should should should assuming I have not tried any of those things. I tend to dabble in it all, but I like the meditative quiet process of breeding cats and the dopamine rush when my cat hits a jack pot
I sell so I can afford to continue to breed.
The community is made up of all kinds of people with a common bond. We like our KittyCatS. A place like this is important so we can have open discussions and learn more about the community. It just seems human nature to want to judge, but it's not helpful here. And I really hope our "Community" learns to come together over this instead of being driven apart.
