[[[[ suggestion!! ]]]]

Everyday i log in to see that people are asking some question about online reptile suppliers in equipment, reps and live foods etc...

So why don't we have a big section where people can post their experiences, good or bad, and then after a while of people posting we make a sticky where there is an A-Z of online shops with main good points people have said numerous times and then the main faults, if any...

I'm gonna get -ed for this probably by people but it's just a suggestion!!!!

Unfortunately naming and shaming (negative criticism) of online businesses is not allowed on the forums, as per the forum rules.

We welcome you to talk about your experiences when visiting a reptile shop, however we ask that you be constructive and only post about fact not personal opinions or perceptions.
We dont allow threads that name and shame shops or other reptile related business, often people's personal opinions can be unfounded and very damaging to the business when they are posted on such an active site. The business also usually finds out quite quickly and subsequently RFUK could be open to threats of legal action.

So if a "Shop Review" style section went ahead, it would be positive comments only (or actual facts, not opinions), and would probably require quite a high amount of moderation as many people do not realise this is a rule, or choose to ignore it when ranting anyway.

Ohhhh... right, ok thanks for clearing that up!
I just thought that at people are always asking about what shops are like online and it starts to get a bit.... well i normally would help out people that ask but i really can't be bothered to tell someone about an online shop that only the other day i told someone else about....
