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.

Age Disclosure?
I am a newbie to this site and I really dig it - I can see how much great information can be disseminated amongst like minded individuals whose goal is better, healthier snakes and further knowledge of said animals - BUT I can also see how much harm this site can do; a quick look through the BMI will alert you to all kinds of false alarms about the misdoing of this person or that person, and then countless inquiries whereby (hopefully - and thats a big maybe) the truth will be revealed. I am sure countless individuals businesses have been hurt - if only for a short while - by hotheads who without thinking or caring of the consequences rip off a damaging BOI email because a rack is two weeks late or they feel someone was rude to them. I know this next statement will make me quickly unpopular with the more young subscribers, but I do notice an age factor - a 13 year old is more quick to damn someone than a 40 year old - thats just the way it is. Of course not all teenagers are like this, but for the most part, many are quick to seek internet "justice" when slighted and we often have no idea where the true heart of the matter lies. see lisalovesanimals for instance. I think it would be a good idea if the administrators of this website saw fit to post the age - just as they do the name and location - of the member. Its not discriminatory as much as it is enlightening to where the person may or may not be coming from.
