I understand where you are coming from and I've had this discussion before. Usually it's the newbies that don't know anything that people are mean to. I haven't really been upset by anything that the mods have said, it's mostly people who think they are mods that have the attitude problem.

One thing you have to keep in mind on here is that everyone thinks their way of keeping ball pythons is THE best way to keep ball pythons. Take everything with a grain of salt and you'll be alright.
