Keep in mind, there are many acceptable ways to keep snakes... so just because it's not by the "BP.net guidelines," that doesn't necessarily mean they're getting it wrong! I kept my snake differently than recommended for a while (glass tank w/ ceramic heater, rheostat & analog thermometer), and he was thriving just fine - only moved him because I got more snakes, and a rack to go along with everyone. He was actually a better eater before moving to racks/tubs, so I occasionally wonder if he preferred my old method!
Now some practices are clearly - like heat rocks, multi-snake housing (especially of different species), cedar bedding, etc. And yes, it can get frustrating to see these on CL, which is why I try to avoid the pet ads on there... also to keep myself from "adopting" every reptile listed, LOL. Anyway, I understand your annoyance, but just remember there are many "right" ways to keep a snake.
