Can only try to share knowledge, can't force them to learn. Mark

Wow Durtis, that was mature. Mark is just offering some very good advice. Take it or don't, pretty simple. It is obvious that you have never been constricted by a snake. Let me tell you the first time that you are, you will second guess the whole snake around your neck thing.

gonesnakee · 09-07-08, 10:08 PM

I don't really give a rats arse if you choose to be a dummy or not. However others that read this can choose to follow good advice if its presented so it is. If some dumb kid doesn't want to follow advice of those with far more experience that have already been there & done that so be it. Yes I say dumb because not following proper safety protocol is just that IMHO anyway. Wear your snakes as necklaces all you want LOL Mark
P.S. they are NOT fashion accessories

Durtis · 09-07-08, 10:12 PM

you know what i dont give a rats *** right now he thinks hes above me because hes a breeder or older

and totheend mature in very mature for my age you would give them same crap these 2 or 3 assholes were giving you all this ****

Aaron_S · 09-08-08, 06:19 AM

I'm sorry but swearing on a public forum doesn't exactly give you a mature image.

Regardless if you take the advice present or not we believe we should at least mention the proper way of handling things so that other people viewing the thread get the right idea instead of the wrong one.

Chase, that is EXACTLY what I meant when I said words fall on deaf ears.

They were not being rude to you until you were rude with them. I have been keeping reptiles for 20 years and I am always willing to take advise from others. That is how I can improve techniques, husbandry and anything else. We all need to be willing to learn from others, that is how the hobby advances.

I am sorry all this got started. I really am on here to learn, so that I can prove to my parents, I am responsible enough for a snake. I just got a little protective of my cousin. While I may not agree with everything he does, he is still my boy and I can only do what I know and have been taught. YOU STAND FOR YOUR FAMILY NO MATTER WHAT. Can we now move past all this and just know the information is out there and as mom always says you can please some of the people some of the time but not all the people all the time. I think it makes sense.

If you are looking to learn something you need to learn right off is not to disrespect those trying to teach you. Family is family & all, but standing up for something that is stupid or wrong just because of someone else in your family, well thats just stupid & wrong LOL Mark
P.S. Durtis you are a disrespectful little punk that has a long way to go on figuring out life & how it works. Nuff Said

Aaron_S · 09-08-08, 06:09 PM

If someone, ANYONE, 16 or 50 years of age comes around and disrespects people who are trying to give great advice, we'd say the same thing. The first lesson to this hobby and any hobby really is, the day you believe you know everything is the day you sell everything and stop. That day just will not ever come.

I think maybe this "Durtis" character might be on the front page of some podunk newspaper some day soon....

The thing these guys don't realize is it is people like them that lead to Bans & Bylaws etc. that ruin the hobby for the rest of us RESPONSIBLE Herpers. Thats why I bother to even post in reguards to such BS. We can do what we can to promote responsible herpers despite folks that want to ignore safety etc. Sad thing is when something happens due to their not being responsible it guys like me/you that deal with the fallout & get "raped & plundered" by the media.

Mark; I hear you, I'll tell you what though, every time I see a post by some "cool guy wanna-be need to show off his snake 'cause he's got a little pecker" type, I just thank my lucky stars they live far far away from me.
Sometimes, it's like talking to a reeetarded wall.

Aaron_S · 09-11-08, 01:18 AM

I second what you say Mykee and Mark. It royally blows for us herpers. Although even though they may be far away, doesn't mean it slows the bills down here. Some politician will use it to get votes.
