    I love this site, but...

    I'm so tired of people on here being rude to new members that are seeking advice. No matter how ignorant that person is, they were smart enough to come here and they should be welcomed and not criticized for doing something wrong. At least teach these people how to properly care for their snakes before you drive them away!!

    I do agree with you. The problem is that most of the members here have seen the same question a 1000 times, and just lose patients. Personally I would rather answer the same question over and over again to try and help, but that is just me.

    Also on the flip side to that, sarcasm is hard to read in text AND a lot of new people don't want to take advice on what or how it works.
    I am more than willing to help anyone but if I get attitude in return then they can look else where too.

    That's what happens 99% of the time when someone leaves with a bad experience here.

    I can understand if they give you attitude, but if they're playing nice and just want to learn and get some help, and then someone spouts off something unfriendly to them just because of a mistake they made, and in no way because of their attitude towards other members, that is inappropriate IMO. If you are going to help someone, help them, but if you have nothing beneficial to say, then why not just not say anything?
