Reptile & Amphibian Forums

I'm hoping you can explain some things to me. I haven't written a peep on the Bull/Rattler issue, so hopefully you haven't gotten any bad impressions about how I treat other people.

I've been around a lot of different types of forums, groups and chat sites all over the net for many, many years. In any of these, you'll have at least one (usually multiple) jerk who enjoys arguing and insulting other people. Or, perhaps they don't enjoy it, but they just have very poor people skills and are clumsy, at best, expressing their opinions. Such things usually lead to arguments and heated discussions.

This one particular forum at Kingsnake, about Pine/Bull/Gopher Snakes...is one of the most consistently kind and thoughtful forums I've ever had the pleasure of lurking and participating in. Even when they disagree with each other, I've never seen an unkind word or disrespectful attitude. They are extremely helpful to anyone who comes looking for information...even when newbie after newbie after newbie asks the same basic questions over and over again. (I'm one of those newbies.)

So, could you please explain to me why you are spewing such venomous words? Did they make fun of you? Well, yeah. But only after trying in a very kind and respectful way to explain to you that the Bull/Rattler issue is an urban legend and why it is impossible.

Are you for real? Did you really expect highly experienced snake breeders/keepers to not dispute your claims? Or were you looking for that right button to push, to start an argument so you could curse and yell like a 10 year old brought up in a dysfunctional home? (Your unimaginative cursing shows a distinct lack of age and experience.)

I'm simply asking you to come clean and explain why you're behaving the way you are. Are you truly so deeply hurt and disturbed that strangers on the Internet don't believe your stories? Or are you a really bored kid with nothing better to do than make prank posts on an informational forum?

I thank you in advance for answering my questions.

That is exactly how I feel about it. I agree totally with what you just said. Cornqueen if you are here to bother us get out...we dont want it. And they were polite about dismissing it the first two times. So you pushing it and not showing proof is your fault ... not ours.
