    Random, potentially dangerous suggestions to problems when the person really has no idea what they're talking about.

    Particularly with dogs! If you've never dealt with an aggressive animal before, why in the world would you suggest someone dominance roll their aggressive 100 lb shepherd? Blargh!

    "Is my snake a morph" threads. OR ppl that cant get their own reptile stuff straight but yet they insist on giving advice, and its even more funny when its hearsay.Also ppl posting graigslist ads.

    Re: What gets your Goat on the forums?
    umm. interesting thread :gj:
    okay. i hate it when people are RUDE in giving advice o_O. sure they're probably right, but there are way nice ways to go about. maybe im just sensitive to the newbies (i still consider myself a newbie). i mostly see "veterans" being obnoxious and condescending when giving information.

    i also dont like it when someone starts an argument in a thread, even if its just a misunderstanding, then EVERYONE joins in on the argument T.T, pretty much hijacking a thread...

    i too dont like when people ask questions that they can find in the stickies T.T... just a peeve, i guess, but seriously LOL, read the caresheets!!!

    and i too hate it when ppl hold grudges on the forum, and continue stalking the poster, instigating more fuss.


    :D

    I don't know anymore. Nobodys been able to get it for a while. There used to be a few things that irked me, but I just can't seem to get worked up about them anymore. Maybe I'm mellowing in my old age.

    Actually, now that I think about it a little more, there is really only one kind of thing that still irritates me from time to time. That's people who speak in absolutes... IE:

    'You MUST keep only one snake to a cage'
    'You MUST have a cage that is at least 'X' size'
    'You MUST use (product-X) for getting rid of mites'
    'You MUST wait until your females are (X-sized) before you breed them'

    Etc.......

    It really doesn't get my goat that much, but it just makes me wonder how people can get to be so closed minded. I guess I've been around snakes long enough and have seen enough 'exceptions to the rule' to realize that there really AREN'T any hard and fast rules.
