    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.



    It's the organizational group joining chain of command we're us and you're you thing that I think is jimmying the works. I, personally, don't really want you guys pointing out my contact info to newbs who need to know something I might know a lot about. If I choose to help, I'll have made the decision, not had it made for me by someone I may not even know. For all you know, the newb is someone I have either had dealings with or just don't want to deal with, so, kindly if you please, don't pass my name around. Were I on staff, that would be different, that's part of the job, but I'm a private citizen.

    I think too that this community not being ready for a sub-group like cobra is wrong. I think this community inherently sees that what you propose to do is what they already have being done for them. Sure, it's not perfect and some do fall through the cracks, so what you're wanting to do is nice as well as necessary, from what you have told us, but again, why re-invent the wheel when you would be better off as a spoke strengthening the one we're already spinning on?

    Seriously Dudes and Dudettes, be Spokes, the world needs more Spokes.
