couldnt agree with you more on the fact that people ask for advice then dont want to know or dont listen..............then you get called a bully for trying to offer friendly advice

why ask in the 1st place if you dont want to listen to the advice anyways


but the sun still shines outta nerys an rorys ass in my eyes

nerys has been a tower of stregnth yet again for me and is still there for me going through another unfortunate incident

so i dont have a single bad word to say about them an pah to anyone who has

I find it baffling when people come onto an animal forum asking advice off animal lovers and expect them to say "oh of course my dear, keep your monkey in a bird cage because it makes YOU happy"!!!

People need to wise up indeed - yes, ther eis a right and wrong way to put advice across to people but more often than not, it is like talking to a wall

Agree with EmJ though - Nerys and Rory are mucho fab and are both often up till silly o'clock helping others. They do much that most folk dont' see and therefore don't appreciate.

Plus, Nerys brought me eggs and a little white fluufy baby to play with - what more could a girl want

Em that is so true so many people really dont know how out of their way they will go to help people

Nerys has been fantastic to me and emma throught out tattys ordeal she really has

nerys had a very late night the other night but didnt mind rory waking her up so i could talk my concerns and worries to her down the phone

she has been amazing throught what i went through with bam and now tatty

i really cant thank her enough for being there for me and helping me out through all i have been through and am going through and will go through

people really need to stop and think before they put rory and nerys down because they dont know what goes on out of RFUK there is alot more to them than posts on a forum

Agreed (with OP).

Constructive debate is good.

Bitching, moaning, and flaming other members is bad.

I am relatively new to both the forum and the hobby and come here to learn from the knowledgeable and share my views.

I have already got the impression that the reptile world can be petty, bitchy, and jealous.

Sorry, but it has to be said.

I must say that the knowledgeable people here are great though and many members seem to be on the right track.

I personally feel that moderators need to be a little more active and jump on disruptive threads to nip them in the bud before they become silly and embarrassing.

Gentle 'sparring' within a subject is one thing, but the nastiness...

i think people are always arguing because this forum ahs become very political lately, people say what they think anjd granted they dont always do it in the best possible way but someone may have a different opinion and then it flames into an argument.
somebody is always looking for something that they can have a go about.. be it a signature or avatar or some other stupis thing like a flipant comment made in jest.
i think its time to really stop the back biting and clamp down on arguments that have become personal.
as mentioned before i see no reason why rory and nerys are constantly getting flak, i havent had much to do with them but ive not seen them do anything but try to help.
people are very quick to judge people from what is written on their screen and what isnt written does not give an acurate discription of that person on another PC.
the nasty comments have got to stop and all the general negative assumptions

Well you for start . As to backbone, I think I've had enough running battles on here of which you are al too aware. If the cap fits wear it. Maybe a nice SS one.

I'm shocked to see that this sort of thing goes on. I have nothing but fantastically good vibes for Tatty. Should we all have some sort of restraint. If you have nothing good to say why say anything at all?? Their are ways and means of putting your opinions across to other without hurting others.

It wasn't;t pleasant for me hearing that i had contributed to Tatty's illness, but I welcome the news this means that i can change my ways and Tatty will have a much healthier happy life.

Isn't this what we should all be aiming for?
