It's many more than just one animal affected. They were also much more prevalent years ago before people posted literally everything on the internet. And given the shame of killing your own animal after people on a community site told you not to use one, I doubt they come back to admit they were wrong.
In addition, I would say probably only 10% of the reptile community frequents forums and sites like this for any long time period. Probably less than 50% of reptile keepers ever even create an account. And another 50% just do whatever the pet store tells them to.
That 50% doing whatever a pet store tells them to do aren't likely to even know that communities like this even exist thus we're not likely to hear about it.

I'm sorry, I have to disagree. First off, most members on ANY pet forums....are likely to be overly protective and unrealistic in NECESSARY accommodation.
I take the position that most pet owners are OVERPROCTECTIVE... and not very likely to be swayed or swindled by pet store employees. Does it happen??? Of course...but...usually those dolts don't show up on pet forums.
