Shrillomn, a brief expose

To me, the most humorous part of this thread, is that the original poser, just sits back and watches you guys going at it. He came, he pushed a button, pulled a string, got his little croneys all worked up to do his job for him, than he left to go watch the show at his leisure.

Now THAT'S entertaining.

Kind of an interesting lesson in human behavior, isn't it.

Rich,
These same discussions and "entertainment" had been ongoing in other areas of the site for a long time, and picked up steam in a few specific other threads before coming here. In the other threads, they weren't the main topic, and unfortunately just the diversions, hijacking, and BS that is being complained about here. At least here, it is the topic. The concerns, complaints, rants, etc, are not a new phenomenon.

LOL, good post.

Don't think you guys are alone in your thinking but, think on this as well. When you enjoy doing something, do you do it for the pure pleasure or do you do it worrying about what others will think of you for doing what you enjoy doing?

How many fewer chuckles would there have been, mine and yours both, had I just sat back and watched?

Are you saying you are hurting people here just for pleasure?

Its long obvious that he enjoys the loose-cannon BS approach. As mentioned earlier, what does he risk ? Doesn't matter if he's Wes or Pez or any other schlock. If Wes were in a position of any standing that required the trust of others, lets assume in a partnership, or a managerial position in any business serving at the approval of others, his shelf-life here or in the employment would be very short. Is anyone who knows of Wes' actual status surprised ?

Anyone who actually gets hurt here, should not be playing here.

It's sort of like rugby. Either stay on the sidelines or don't complain about a foot in your mouth, no matter who's it is.

So you are saying that all those who come just for some reptile advice or to talk to like minded hobbyists need to be prepared to be kicked in the teeth?

No. I do not think Fauna was founded on that concept. Bad guys and scammers are one thing, but kicking those who visit looking for advice is another. Fauna is not a rugby field.

Sure, like they have the option ? Someone starts a thread because they have a beef, sticking someone's name up in the "search" lights. Sometimes legit, sometimes not. Response is almost mandatory. Others post here because they missed the sign on the way in "RUGBY", and mistook it for a place of some civil contribution or mature disagreement. And where's the little blowhard troll calling folks "liars and A$$es and scumbags"? He's over there hiding behind his IGNORE curtain. If you can't take it Wes, you "should not be playing here"
