I hope that anyone looking for actual tips bears in mind that such comments are based upon wild flights of fancy and should not be taken seriously.

I too believe you were out of line in this post. we're just trying to have fun and so far i have seen nothing that is mis-leading in any way. To those who come across this thread I want to assure you that we are not trying to do anything underhanded or misleading. We all are still learning as the KittyCats team comes up with new stuff for us to discover.

I think Kitten was very appropriate in dealing with this, and I'm only adding my opinion after her post because I read most responses just now, not with the intention of continuing the issue.

I think perhaps Tad's choice of words wasn't the happiest one, but I have to say I agree with him in some respects. I don't think the idea/intention was to be misleading or to spread false information, but I can see how certain statements about randomness and patterns could lead to the development of myths which could potentially be taken as true (especially by new breeders) and that would harm the development of breeding skills. I don't think anyone posting wants that, but I think it was going in that direction unintentionally.
