the uk forum your talking about is full of to**ers mate.
imo there are a select few with a lot of hands on experience and as a result are very knowledgable.instead of using said knowledge to do good they tend to use it to belittle and embaress folk.
that said there are a few who will pull out all the stops to help you with a problem.
i have mixed feelings about that forum as yes you can learn a fair bit from it but also ive seen folk scared to ask questions for fear of being flamed.
only last week i pulled a guy who was flaming a 15 year old girl for asking a few very newbie questions about her kingsnake.the poor girl was concerned about her snake.some idiot told her she was ********.these types really make my blood boil.
the mods on that forum are a bloody disgrace.they allow people to falsely advertise things.then when others post to say thats not the snake you say it is.they are the ones who get an infraction against them.
theres a lot of google warriors on it as well.....!!!
rant over
some kind of licencing would be good but sadly there are intelligent folk who would pass the test and can still be idiotic over things.
my other rant over
cheers shaun
