I also have never seen anyone say or even hint to the fact that they hate new people and are only in it for themselves. Once again, some people may sorta show that kind of attitude every once in awhile but its rare. And i would honestly just attest that to their personality in life in general, not just in the herp community.
Oh, dear, I didn't mean just on BP.net. I mean as a whole, and especially where I'm from locally as well.

BP.net is pretty different I have to say. Specifically as you say, I haven't found anyone here that's like that. Some what the reason I like coming here an reading.

However, there are many forums (which to name one, I'm not super sure you can call fauna a forum) out there that are highly hostile. Which is unfortunate, and in my eyes detrimental to our hobby.
