I should add that you are not entirely wrong, IMHO. I think there is alot of truth to what you are saying about newbies and others being intimidated and put off by aggressive, know-it-all, opinionated, agrumentive, etc. attitudes and behavior.

The problem in my mind then becomes how do you break the news, so to speak, to a person who has posted a picture of a species, subspecies and/or locality specimen that is obviously not what they think it is. IMHO it is just as bad, if not worse, to let them go on thinking they have something they don't, than it is to question them or just come out and say that their animal(s) aren't what they were sold or represented as.
