How did you discover BP.net?

If someone has done a thread about this is apologize. I looked in "search" and couldn't find anything. So tell us how did you find this amazing site?

andrew h pm'd me on a tarantula forum and told me about it. ;) and i've been addicted ever since!!!

Gradually.

Googled some bit of research I was doing on BP's and the answer came up in a post from BPNet.

I did the same as Joanna searched for some info and found it.

same here i do research on any animal before i get one.

Same as a few others--I was doing research on BPs, as I was (and am) thinking about having one as a pet. I was searching for caresheets and I pulled up BP.net, NERD's website and an assortment of other caresheets. I like to compare/contrast "caresheet" information. :) Then I started reading the forums here and was instantly hooked.

Looking for a BP caresheet before I got my BP.

I use forums a lot, and enjoy the community feel, so I googled for "ball python forums" and found this awesome site!

I think I was searching for some info and was led here.

I was searching for some info on google about "ball pythons" and I found this site! I couldn't be more pleased.

ditto

I lurked for about 5 months before I got my first bp. Once I actually had one I joined so I could start posting.

I am pretty sure I was searching for a caresheet..

A few years ago, I was a regular member of the kingsnake forums, which I discovered when researching what our first snake should be and how to take care of it. Ball Pythons was on the list of possible "firsts" so I spent a lot of time in those forums. Someone there (I don't remember who) had a link to BP.net in their signature and I followed it here. At that time, BP.net was brand-spankin' new and there wasn't a whole lotta action, so I didn't really spend much time here.


But KS gets really old after awhile...and this place was fresh and different. So I started lurking and finally registered and introduced myself...believe it or not, in my introduction I said I probably wouldn't post much. :P 'Cause I was shy... :oops:

hehehehehe....the rest is pretty much history!

I was complaining to my son Lars about problems with other forums I had been checking out and he told me I would really like this one. For once he was right!

Gotta love Google :P. I was looking for some info on a problem we were having with one of our leopard geckos and next thing I know I'm hooked.

I guess Goggle is to thank :D

Google.

So it went like this:

Google+Ball Python=BP.net

I was on arachnoboards, and someone who was already on BP net cane there with their first spider. He said he had a BP, and so when I posted I was going to get one, he directed me here.

Did a web search on bp's and care there of and a link for this site was on here.

Judy your info shows you joined in 01/2004 but I could have swore you where on here when I joined which was in 12/2003. I am confused :confused:

Gosh it seems like ages ago.

I was searching to see how big they get.

It's all Rapture's fault! :P I had an issue with one of my snakes, and she posted some pix up here. I was hooked from that day foward! For more reasons than one. Can't get over how great everone is here. I've learned sooo much, I wouldn't trade my BPnet adventure for anything! True story.

I just got my baby Bp and was looking for more info. This was the first site to pop up.

Google.

We actually were first on the Sutherlands bp messageboards, but there wasn't much action, so Rick found here. Nothing out there better, hands down. =)

Probably google. I was looking for more information on ball pythons before I bought my first one.

I did the same exact thing, while researching the husbandry of BP's.

I either typed "ball python" or "ball python care sheet" in Google, and this site was one of the top results.

Riveting.

I was invited by Jo and Robin after a very warm , friendly back and forth caring and sharing non arguementative best of pals debate on Live Feeding for BP's :sunny: an so adulation became a reality :worship: its a curse sometimes but on this occasion it proved to be worth it:D

Or maybe I just wore them out ( hey now mind out of the gutter people :colbert: ) with my scottish wit and humour :neener:

on a serious note ..............:rolleye2: nah I canny do it , I canny be serious when talking about Jo and Robin. :hump: ..hehe they really are a pair of :floating:

I googled ball python to get info for my first snake. I am still new to reptiles

and having a source for consistant and accurate information has helped me.
So thank you all for the great info.

:snake:

Someone from LiveJournal, one of the snake communities, recommended this forum when I was looking for information on our first ball-python (Gomez!). I never really expected to get this into it, since I usually hang back in a forum, but everyone here was so nice and helpful and even got me my beautiful healthy BP within a month or two of joining!

I was searching the internet for a ball python forum site, didnt really have any particular question in mind I just figured that people on forums like that would have a lot of exp and knowledge that I could learn and benefit from. Boy was I right lol, Even if im not posting alot of questions I spend alot of time reading up on questions others have asked. Its always good to be learning

i googled ball python, and it just came up

i was asking around on myspace groups on snakes on info on my BP and left a comment on a snake keeper's page and Susan(daaaangconcepts) sent me a message and recommended me to this site:D

thank you susan!!

It was a complete accident, i was given my 1st bp after our corn got lose and needed some info on bp's. i was goggleing bp's and this site appeared.hooked ever snice...

Now you know Robin and I adore that crazed scots wit of yours and a wee bit of good discussion as it happens...(plus the whole dancing in a skirt thing http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e2...KiltDancer.gif is just tooooooooo good...hehehehehe...haven't seen nary of pic of any hairy knees but Robin and I do dream)

(Disclaimer: When Snakey68 sees this there will likely be a roar heard round the internet...something along the lines of "IT'S NO A SKIRT YA BLITHERIN WOMAN! IT'S ME KILT AND IT HAS A FINE AND PROUD HISTORY!!!...at this point please do brace for the upcoming lecture done by all proud scots males...."The Kilt...Why it is NOT a skirt...It's honoured place in history"....generally takes an hour or two depending how often they stop to wet their whistle with a bit of good whiskey)

Its JeffnMe:D

I discovered it with a periscope and a spatula - and was shortly afterwards abducted by the staff at that time . . who I quickly weirded out to the point that they threw it in my lap and ran away screaming . . . except for Jeanne . . . who has been irretrievably damaged by my deflicted personality.

You're right, of course.

She clubbed me and dragged me here by the hair - what we call "caveman roofies".
