This already happens in this community, how about you just put forth more effort here

Fair enough!

I think we all understand what the intent is here, and it's a good one. It's also bringing up a bunch of constructive criticism for the forum and how it can be improved upon as a whole, and these are good things for all of us to think about and remember going forward. Maybe fewer people will "jump on" a newbie about not having a thermostat after remembering this thread, etc etc. But at the end of the day, the sheer length of this thread and the dissent it seems to be brewing will have more negative than positive effect.

I just thought that it would happen more often with this group together....

but I have seen some of my own post go untouched when I needed help...

This is a busy board and you can always btt

Why?
It only takes one persons action to open ones eyes.

how does this group stop these kinds of replies?

You won't be able to! I'll still be a jerk, but it's because i'm more concerned about the snakes health than it's genetics. I don't care how my comments come off, to be perfectly honest lol.

All the negative feed back and people telling you they don't want it... Why can't you people take your information and just fade away before this gets worse. Neal is already going to come back and start sending out PM's and giving bad rep all over the place. If these 200 posts were used to help the forum think of all the good that could have been done.

That's what I'm saying. Sometimes I'm brutally honest. Sorry I'm not sorry?

I wanted to show a quote from a new user who PM'd me with their thoughts on the situation of our husbandry threads.

When I first joined this site and posted, I was terrified that I would be crucified for rescuing a snake that I didn't know how to care for. And honestly, if you think about it, not many people came running to my aid here when I was looking for help. Thank goodness you did!

So, do people help?? yes. Do they help most people?? Yes. But in some instances people are forgotten, and I thought that if I got some people together we could make an organized attempt to make sure that this didn't happen as often.

People shouldn't feel this way about our forum....I just wanted to make sure fewer people did.

Based on the thoughts provided here, I think that our community isn't ready for a sub-group like this. It makes too many people feel left out, and is viewed as an attempt at mutiny by others. I think there is a way for COBRA to work, but I'll have to think about it for a while. I don't really want to start it seperate from this forum...I think this is one of the best herp forums out there, and really want to do my part at improving it.

Then as I already said, STEP up and SPEAK up rather than making yourself step out.
