    I like it because it's active, friendly, and full of information. I prefer this forum to others I'm also a member of because generally it's more welcoming and open-armed to newbies and full of great people That, and it was the first one I joined for BPs.

    I lurve you guys!

    I like forums because of the knowledge you can gain from people with first hand experience. You can get multiple answers (different approaches) to doing something and achieve the same ending result. You can share your failures and successes and get feedback.

    I like this forum over most others because of the people here. Almost everyone here is friendly, the mods are fair, and I can share all my hobbies and at least one person on here will share that interest genuinely. Not just "oh that's nice" type of reply.

    Now I am a member of a few other forums that I like equally to this one. One is for arachnids the other is for chickens. Both of which are Very helpful in their own regard. The only downside I have found to the chicken forum is it is hard to share my love of reptiles and Ts with out getting that's weird or gross. But other than that they are extremely friendly.

    This ^^

    Emphasis on the friendly. While we have our trolls we have great mods to keep things in order. Most other forums are a kind of free for all. This is really the only forum I actively visit because of that.

    These are my thoughts as well. It was also the first site I was referred to 3 years ago when I got my first BP.

    I also like how the site is constructed and the features that are available too.

    Re: Why do you like this forum?

    I like this forum better than most because of the friendly atmosphere, lots of honest feed back with minimal judgement. Also because there isn't any restrictions on what email account you can or can't use and be a member with. There are certain forums that won't let you be a member with certain email servers. I also recommend this site when I sell a baby or if I give advice so they can get a variety of info and opinions. On the occasion I visit another forum I do so as a guest and don't bother signing up. I have yet to find one that I prefer.

    Happy Herping!!!!

    There are a couple of forums I've seen that seem chalk full of noobs asking extremely noobish questions. Now I'm all for helping a noob out but there is a line. This forum is also very busy. Someone always has an answer for ya. I like that. Also it's cool to talk reptiles and snakes with people who know terms like "het" or "clutch". It's refreshing.

    The people and general friendly and informative atmosphere are definitely the big things for me here. Also the slightly macabre humor that seems to go along with being a snake person ;P I only even regularly visit one other herp forum/website, and that's mostly because I know a lot of those people in person.

    The people here are so awesome that they can even occasionally turn trolls back into real people! XD
