That top picture, if it is a fire, is a terrible example of a fire and I would not buy it for $50.00 if it was being advertised as a fire.

My fires must be very light, ghostly, greap lip spots/moustache, light skull markings on the head, pied-like railroad tracks along the belly, orange ringers, light colored eyes, overall different body color (more orange or yellow tint) and very clean belly aside from tracks.. etc etc etc..

There is a quite a few very obvious traits that we look for in Fire. How can you the think everyone would be OK with it when someone comes on here to make a pointless thread just to complain about how they think a fire looks like a normal?? They do not. Plus if you only did an image search for "fire" BP's, I'm willing to bet that snake in your top pic is not a fire. Especially with how young it is. Sure it has a slightly lighter head spot but so does my incredibly dark "normal" female. That is actually a "normal" trait. The head spot on a fire will have a very distinct shape to it. My female fire has a pyramid on her head and my male has more of a skull.

So instead of telling us to get over it, look at about 50 more actual fireballs next to different looking "normals".

Even next to the light normals, there is a huge difference.


Ok Foschi maybe just so you can avoid this happening I will point out where I found your post somewhat offensive.

First paragraph: To those of us who know anything about balls? So what are you saying I don't know anything? And how would you know what I've seen close up? Theres just better ways of wording what you said there, its sounds degrading, and yes I felt like you were trying to make me feel kind of dumb for saying that I think a Fire looks like normal, KIND OF.

Paragraph 3: Well I don't think I need to go too far into that one as to where I could get a little ticked off. Calling my thread pointless. And then saying I'm complaining? See heres the thing, you have to read all the posts. I feel a lot of people don't read threads from the beginning and don't know all that was said and can jump the gun in terms of temper. You can tell how something was intended to be said easily by reading something. Or maybe we can't. Thats why you should remain as neutral as possible in your posts and not say things like that. Maybe you think its harmless, but some might find it offensive(me).


And paragraph 4: Just didn't need to be said. Look at 50 lol? Again assuming I'm an idiot and don't know anything.

I have never even spoken or saw you on this forum before until I made this thread and you go and talk like that...? Just like you said, I'm pretty sure you would have conducted yourself in a different manner in person. That and not for anything, its my opinion. I think Fire have a normal-esque look to them. So do pastels, yellow bellies, sables, and others...All I mean is by "look like" is that you can see where the morph came from. You can still see the normal in a fire, and in a pastel and so on. What you see, and what I see are obviously two conflicting pictures so no need to push your Fire knowledge on me the way you did especially after all the previous posts, or go on the way you did. I'm sorry for flipping out, but after all the other posts its kind of hard to be patient.
