    Re: All time most hated BP.net cliches...

    People trying to jump in the hobby for a quick buck and coming here to see how to. Knowledge is free here and knowledge is power, but man do I get mad when I see "How much money can I make off of this clutch of brown pastel to dark normal, and can I breed her before 1500 grams? Can I powerfeed to get her up to weight? She won't powerfeed, how do I force feed?"

    Dishonorable intentions for a Royal Python=my biggest pet peeve.

    To be honest, I don't really see this as much as people talk about it. Usually when someone asks about making money in the BP industry they get jumped on for trying to make a buck and not caring about the animals, when in fact, they were accused wrongly and were just asking a curious question. I think I've seen this seriously only ONCE in the year I've been on this website.

    I still think this is a question based website, meant for learning. Just because we see the same question 10 times, doesn't mean the poster sees the answer at a ll.

    And honestly...I don't see anything wrong with typing 'BP.net', you know what it means. I guess I am too lazy to type out the whole address. Just my oppinion tho.
    Coming from a new member, I totally agree.

    I personally have posted the "my ball python isn't eating" thread and have read reasons (other posts) prior to posting the thread. so alot of the suggestions that I got.. I already knew. However it never hurts to put it FRESH in front of the group in case someone else has an idea that hasn't been posted... and in case your situation is different due to you already trying the posted suggestions..

    my $0.02



    so with that said.. my least favorite cliche isnt in the list...

    "this is a friendly welcoming site to learn about husbandry/etc...."

    Do we need to do this publically? If you don't care for a certain member here I'm sure you can find a way to discuss this if you wish between yourselves privately. I wouldn't suggest you turn this thread into a member bashing member thread.

    Don't forget that you can set members to "ignore" and you won't have to worry about seeing their posts anymore.

    Re: All time most hated BP.net cliches...

    Well I don't at all mind the "My bp won't eat." especially since my girl won't eat right now and her husbandry is perfectly fine. So I can sympathize with that...

    And I can understand not all of us are the best with cameras and lighting and blah blah... So I can understand how someone's crappy pics don't do their snake justice...

    But I do get bothered by "how much does XXX snake cost??" If you type in ball pythons into google, you'd get a TON of hits with morphs and prices and if you just do a little bit of research, you'll find what you're looking for.

    "There's definitely something going on in there!" Oh yeah, then why are you selling it? There's an ad in particular on there right now that makes me scream every time I see it, but I won't name specifics because I don't want to hurt or offend anyone that may be connected with them.
    I was gonna say the same thing. I always get a laugh out of this one.
