haha..yes that is probably it.
I havent looked at the rip section but have seen a few threads about ill/dead lizards..it could be a lot of keepers first winter? not knowing all the signs.... thinking the signs are just brumation or winter slowdown as that is also new to them.... rotten luck? law of averages? this is a busy forum..

I think a lot of it is due to idiots buying things on impulse with no real experience of even beginner species and going for intermediate or advanced species almost immediately.

even some with experience do the OMG i've never seen one of them before, i'll buy it. There's a few on here who collect them like kids collect sticker books. Even though they're experienced with reps they still have to have something they stumble across and don't do any homework just because its in the shop or there's one in the classifieds. you wouldn't buy every car, house, dog, cat, table or lamp you see so why do they have to do it with reps?

i havent had a proper look but to me it seems its actually more of the common species, leos, beardies, etc that are being lost more than anything that is more advanced.

Forums has grown MASSIVELY in the last year, and reptiles are becoming a more mainstream pet. The whole 'hobby' seems to be growing, and with that growth, the amount of deaths will grow proportionally. As the hobby gets more publicity, the general thought will be well, if my neighbor can do it, how hard can it be? I havent looked at the RIP section ever really, but that's my take anyway. Even experienced keepers loose animals, just there's more of em on these forums now :P
