This is exactly what I am talking about. Because one or two people start off being rude to you, you don't even realize that there are people giving you advice in the middle of it all. Those are the people you need to pay attention to and stop burning bridges.
Again, not trying to be rude, but trying to be helpful.
Pit's post here was not rude at all
And although you responded to Eric Alan, it doesn't seem he was heeded
This poster got completely ignored
Same thread, also ignored
This seemed innocent enough of a post. Not 100% on why this was met with any form of anger....?
And literally this entire thread is filled with only reactions to "negative" posts and completely ignoring the innocent ones
I'm not trying to be mean, but I really think you are just being really sensitive. If you aren't a a troll I recommend taking a break from the forum...
In the future, post a topic if you have to, answer questions as they come, but let people discuss on their own. Let people voice concerns or opinions. They are entitled to their opinion as much as you are, and you shouldn't ever expect that they won't defend their opinion just because you think they are wrong. Much like you have information backing the "fact" you know, they have information that backs the fact they know.
To offer my neutral opinion... As long as the snake isn't dying, hurt, or constantly in fear of such, you can keep doing what you are doing. Just chill, man. Snakes are chill pets, and need a chill pet owner.
