Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I think authoritarian type attempts to direct conversation to a narrow response will simply cause friction. The OP had her ideas, readers had differing ideas, they should be able to express, just as she expressed hers.
I think the objections to the OP came from her inability to hear the opinions of others (as well as her false accusation).

Okay. I’m not arguing one way or another, I just saw a question was asked and it seemed like heat seeking missiles were aimed from the start. No biggie.

I think you are being a bit naive. Venomoids are a hot button topic, and feelings run high. If the OP's only purpose was to get information, she would have simply picked out the informative replies and gone her way. But she did not. She was forceful and nasty while addressing some of the replies when she did not need to address them at all.
Here was her first post:

Let's change it up to a different hot button topic, what if, instead of a reptile forum, someone had posted on a forum devoted to people "I was hoping anyone could refer me to a doctor who does abortions in or near Indiana."
No rational person would expect readers to keep their opinion to themselves and only post if they had such a referral.

Offered my experience with venomoids to be helpful on the subject, childish OP resorted to calling names & having a hissyfit. He or she won't be missed.

I don't think you need to apologise, I think you made a very valid and reasonable point. The OP did not come here for a discussion on the rights and wrongs of the venemoid treatment, she came to ask about vets who might conduct the operation, and at first she was met quite reasonably, even though this is a process many people would not recommend.
Unfortunately this is a very emotive issue, and it was somewhat naive to think that there would not be a heated response somewhere along the line. If she had risen above that, ignored the hotheaded comments and continued with the more reasonable aspects of the discussion instead of getting defensive, or even just stopped responding, this would have faded away. Instead she resorted to name calling and obviously sent some reprehensible private messages we aren't party to, resulting in her ban from the site.
