Wilomn...

Sometimes rational, intelligent people speak their mind on the internet. Those with enough smarts to recognize indisputable truth value the weigh-in. Those without get angry and try to 'call them out' or call them tough guys. I believe there's a Dilbert comic I linked one other time in a similar thread.

People said things like "Poke the Bear" out of respect for Wes. I too once "poked the bear" and I'm glad I did. He put my cocky self right in my place. I learned a lot from him on the public posts and in private messages.

My advice to is to slow your roll. Think about why everyone here is posting the things they are. It's because of the respect the man has earned. He is not here to hurt anyone's feelings. But if he does so what? If you pay attention you'll find that he can spot BS a mile away and will call you out when he does.

Wes isn't always right. I don't think he ever claimed to be the end all be all of reptile husbandry but I can promise you that he will always give an honest reply and you will learn a hell of a lot if you just stop typing and read what the man has to say.

Not to beat the dead horse further, but the precise reason that he only needed to post once, and multiple people with many years more experience than myself have stepped forward to disagree with your approach, is that he DOES have good advice and he HAS earned our respect. Yes, his approach is less than sugar-coated. Quite frankly, I love reading his posts for the sheer intelligence and cleverness behind them. The very valid points that he gets across without spoon-feeding the masses is an added bonus. :gj:

He HAS earned it! What makes you think he needs your approval? Now I'm calling you out? Tell us all why you think you are so special that you deserve such special treatment? Show us all your endless wisdom.

I'll wait.

By the way, internet fights are funny to me so try to refrain from the junior high crap unless you only want to be laughed at.

Dude he's old, he probably doesn't even know what that is...

And if he does, he's probably already like a level 98 goblin shaman warlock...
