Yes, you have lost your mind,

YOU SAID

Thank you for snapping me back out of this negative tug-of-war with Frank. I agree, he's simply not worth the time nor the energy that I've wasted with him. I just get so mad when I get emails from people that feel compelled to leave and not participate here all because of negative people like Frank. But like you point out, it's a fight that cannot be won as Frank feeds off this kind of negativity like a psychic vampire whose thirst can never be sated.



First off, there is no tug-a-war, you want to control this forum and run off what you do not approve. Its not tug-a-war. Its a territorial dispute. hahahahahahahaha true.



All I have done is offer other methods to improve a captive snakes lives. That is not negative. Thats a positive. If you want to be negative, a possible positive.



You as mentioned above, are about running folks off(me) Because I am not you. You are negative. You use personal attacks, instead of discussing or debating the issues. That is negative.



Yes, I may be upsetting your personal party, in reality, its NOT your party.



Its a public forum.



What makes this negative is YOU making it personal, as you did again, instead of discussing the issues.



Wisdom is key here and you should understand, all this conversation and not about RIGHT or WRONG. ITs also about what the KEEPER wants to accomplish. Which differs for each keeper. Whats right for you, may not be right for me, and visa versa. I am not interested in what you do, I am interested in other keepers that like the snakes.



I stated my interests(behavior) when I came to this forum. And guess what, as long as I am working with hogs, I will post if I want, and about what I want.



ALso, when I see such things as poor nesting techniques, I will bring up ways to help that, If I can. What you do is up to you. Some people are interested, some are not. I have learned over the years, some folks love help, others hate it. Some folks take everything personal(you), I don't. I am about the animals. Which means, I make mistakes all the time, the fun is learning.



Whats sad to me is, some of you are about morphs, and are expert with genetics. But somewhere, somehow, you missed the snake, all these wonderful morphs are HOGNOSE. Each an individual that does stuff(a bag of behavior). It seems all you care about is base function, to supply you with more morphs. As an older keeper, I am past that. I have learned to love the snakes and what they do.



Its seems all you care about is minimum reproduction and behavior is a side note. For me, behavior is most important and with that supported, the rest is EASY.



Often said here is, I cannot do that because I have too many snakes. sirs, that is your choice and its based on morphs and keeping up with the Jones(an old saying based on urban development)



What you do, is yours to do, but I am interested in behavior, then after that morphs. So sir, strap it on, as I am here for a while. Move your buns over, theres a new cowboy in town(and you really should go and a buy a sense of humnor)



And please please please, do what you said, ignore me. that will make it far more fun. Sir, your no fun. and FUN is where its at. Best wishes
