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.

Reptiles and Bass Guitar
Hi, everyone!
So, I currently live with my parents, and I have some reptiles in my room (specifically, a pair of emerald tree skinks, a gargoyle gecko, a ball python, and a Kenyan sand boa). I'd like to start playing bass again, as I used to do so a couple years ago before falling out of practice. I would do so in the same room the reptiles are in. Would this be harmful to them, either physically or mentally? It's not very loud; it's a similar volume to someone speaking slightly louder than normal.
Thanks!

Reptiles can be very sensitive to vibration, but it really varies from individual to individual based on how prone to stress the individual animal is. I know reptiles can be bothered by a TV, so it's possible they could be bothered by bass guitar, although if it's not very loud I'm sure that would help.

Low frequency vibrations can easily travel all through the house even at low volume, so no matter which room you are in, they would probably feel it.
A suggestion you might consider is that you could use headphones or earphones instead of playing through an amp. Your parents might appreciate the consideration also.

I would try it and see how the animals react, if the exhibit any signs of stress
