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 just read the same post he/she made on a European forum, but the biodome has now grown to 120 gallons. I guess he had to expand it to accomodate his iguana

Sometimes when people are fooling around, joking, or lying, they will throw you a wink, just so you know they are joking. Y`know?

Really, I don't think there was a tank, nor do I think he's going for a PhD. I'm willing to bet he is actually 20 (ish) and just looking to conduct his own private psychology experiment called "TROLLING", knowing what the results would be. I don't care what his reasons were....I'm glad he's gone.
I do think, as a whole, we can learn a lot from the postings in this thread. I fully understand the passion behind what was said. I was very tempted to say a few words as well. However, it was really getting out of control. ByRandom should be given an award for making such an informative and cool-tempered post...and I'm sure he wanted to do some smack talk as well, but held back.
Just sit back and think of if this had been real (and it happens)... A kid spends a bunch of money on animals he knows nothing about and thinks they will be friends. How do you think they would react to 10 different people saying they are dumb, cruel, etc? The ears would turn off, and they wouldn't be open to listening to anything because they think they know better. Now, how do you think they would react if everyone gave very cool, concerned factual posts such as the one by ByRandom? In most cases, you'd get a lot further towards educating and hopefully helping the animals in question.

Maybe I'm not getting the whole picture here but i thought that the first replies to his posts were for the most part polite and tried to be helpful in a nice way
I don't remember the outrage setting in until he ignored all advice given and
he insisted on doing things his way despite all the good advice that he received
At what point do you stop being nice and start smacking to someone that that blatantly throws your advice back at you??
I know that the one post that I did make was pretty much disgusted at the whole point of people looking for advice and then totally ignoring it- but then I have not had much in the way of patience lately
I do understand what you are saying -perhaps the best thing to do (note to self) is say is nothing if it's not constructive???
