When you purchase a platinum level subscription to the forum, you have to option to create your own member forum. That is a forum created by a platinum level subscriber (a long time ago). Maybe we should consider closing the old member forums to new posts if they are confusing?

Ahh .. I was wondering why I wasn’t allowed to create new threads in that section .. so yes maybe time to delete the sections that have been dormant for years

Well this is an obvious suggestion, but most of us know other people who keep reptiles, or we meet new ones with common interests, like in pet stores & all...do we remember to suggest this forum to them? I hope so.

Here's my 2 cents after poking around....from a software engineer perspective, and someone who pays attention to usability.

The site isn't responsive, and difficult to use on mobile phones. Most of the internet traffic is mobile. Mobile first should be the new mindset.

I went to install Tapatalk, to make my life a bit easier, and it's not pulling the list of forums in properly on a new installation - so, today, it's not usable. Not sure if this is a permanent issue with Tapatalk, or not....but, I also didn't see any reference on the site when taking a quick look, to see if Tapatalk is the recommended method to use this site via Mobile.

I also come from a time when Forums were the cornerstone of the internet, before the FB's and Reddits. It does take a really good core of dedicated users to keep the activity flowing, to engage new users, and to foster discussion. From what I see in this thread, there are some people who care very deeply about that - it's nice to see.

A sincere thanks to you for your input, and :welcome:too. I hope you'll continue to participate & help us grow better. Love your logo!

I find it so much easier to use Tapatalk too, like zincubus I'm on rfuk as its us based in the uk, but has been so quite also. Just so much easier for uploading pics

I check in on both forums a few times a day on my phone on break and lunch time at work to see if there's been anything new going off, but as I'm on a different time zones I'm often late to the table and other people have answered the questions. so I often just like the post to show the op that someone has at least acknowledged it

It is difficult in the middle of a world wide pandemic for people to access certain things, A lot of people have had the normal working days turned upside down, with either having to work from home and kids being home schooled due to school closures over covid, we'll in the uk anyway
Think it's the same for alot of you guys/girls on the other side of the pond too,
I'm hopeing by the end of the year things will start to feel a bit more normal
Fingers crossed anyway[emoji1696][emoji1696]

I’d certainly give TapaTalk a few more tries over the coming days ..
Maybe delete the app and reinstall it ..

Did you download it with a WIFI connection - obviously far quicker to download and less chance of any initial glitches.

As I’ve said if I didn’t have TapaTalk I simply wouldn’t bother going into all my favourite forums .

I’ve got two forums that aren’t compatible with TapaTalk and I rarely bother to log in and that’s if I even remember about them in the first place ..

What would be awesome if it was easier to post pictures from an iPad without having to use tapatalk or what ever it’s called. My snakes look like anacondas compared to the photos I have posted now, lol. I would love to share more photos. 💪✌️
