I don't see a whole lot of new people commenting on anything other than basic questions that anyone with limited knowledge could answer. If someone knows the answer I don't see a problem with them responding... Whether they have 100 posts or 1,000,000 posts means nothing to me.
What I do have a problem with is when people call others out for being "noobs," or giving them a hard time for asking questions or being a part of the community. (That doesn't really happen on this site which is why I like it so much). We were all new to reptiles at some point and insulting people because they are trying to learn is not helping anything. ( I know that's not what your doing, I'm just speaking generally).
Cheers.
