Is there a chance we can tighten the belt a little around here...

with all the insults, bashing, cliques, post whoring, thread de-railing?

I didn't join this forum to make e-friends, I joined to get and give advice to the best of my abilities. Discuss things related to reptiles. Maybe some other types of animals.

Since I've joined it's been the same groups of people ganging up on members, new people, etc. It really makes this site look awful, I'm sorry to say.

There's no reason someone should post a comment or question in a thread and get ripped to shreds by someone and their goonies over it.

What happened to this being about a place for herp lovers to come and share experience, stories, pictures, advice?? I didn't sign up to relive high school online.

Re: Is there a chance we can tighten the belt a little around here...

Thing is efriends develop in open forums. if you just want facts on care, there is plenty of reference sites on the net for that. a lot of what you call cliques aren't cliques but like minded people who agree on a subject. remember you are viritually new here as well, stick aroun and you will see people who seem to be the best of friends disagree and argue over subjects that they differ on. part of what makes the site as good as it is comes from the freedom members have to express themselves. and yes, when one sees another being attacked, they will come to their aid, but that is based on the fact that they have known each other and know where that person stands. And really overall, I see a lot more new members coming in here with attitudes and picking fights then older members just jumping on newbies. when the newbies start something, then all heck breaks loose. overall, most people on here are tolerant and patient with new members, but when they start to throw the flack, the regulars don't need to put up with it.

(okay, just my 2cents....gotta go study for the drivers exam some more..... )

Re: Is there a chance we can tighten the belt a little around here...

the thing is...the main arguements are caused when people will not accept the advice that they asked for. Some people ask for advice, and dont get the answer they want, so they post the same basic question, in a new thread, with a different title, and hope that this time they will get a different answer (as we have seen in the last few days)

David no offense, but this thread is about the problems occuring in general not you specifically. Please don't restart yesterdays problems. I think we should all move on. Again no one is attacking anyone on this post just stating the obvious problems that have been going on lately.
