Nice discussion, I would like to add that I appreciate Varanio's work on this sub-forum, and I appreciate the effort put forth to try and make it better.
My only real addition is simply to agree with some earlier posts, specifically about the search option. I think that ideally it would be perfect just to steer all new people there, but I also think that it is not "up to par" all the time. I use it a lot, and it takes me a little while sometimes to find what I need and I already know how to use it.

stirring them straight to that for the same old basic questions maybe.The only thing I see is say I ask what temps my gecko should be.I go to the search and find it answered by 2 or 3 bafoons that dont know or cant explain it well.Newbies might be helping newbies wch is fine if they know their stuff.Most dont,they are just doing a search for past answers with old members.If I asked right now you know you would get a broader base to stand on with as many ppl that would chime in with the latest members and info just dieing to help somebody.I wonder do we want this a place where ppl can come and talk reptiles and such or just a place to get info.My town has zilch as far as a herp comunity so thats why I love being on here and a few others to somewhat hang for a while with you guys.Im just brainstorming so dont take all this to strange,just thinking a bit.hamato_yoshii;1834055; said:
by the way the search really is bad,their are 2 or 3 threads with cloverfield in the title,and if you typed the word cloverfield in the search you got 3 or 4 oddball finds but not the ones with it bold right their in the title.

J what the hell are you saying here ? ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ..... This is a community where we can chat reptiles all day long the problem has been explained many of times, our search engine may not be up to google's standard, but even they cant get it perfect, and theyre a billion dollar company. I think its great that people come to talk herps, keyword (talk herps) everyday happenings, breeding, habitat data, etc etc etc.... were just trying to minimize the wasted threads that ask the same questions and by doing so we can have more relaxed flowing dialogue. Hence the revamp of the sticky section only being dedicated to data, caresheets, faqs etc..... so if anyone has anything to contribute to these pm me and ill post it for you or feel free to post it.
Are you kidding me? I guess that I'll just have to keep ignoring people who use WTF in the title of their threads. This is ridiculous, we all know what WTF really stands for.

That might be so, but its not the word spelled out. I dont think you read the whole part of my thread. If its a direct attack at someone else, yes it will get a looking at...and possible deletion/vacation maybe in place as well. If its a way to vent out of frustration towards something gone wrong with a setup, pet, or troubleshooting overall then I dont see a big deal there since we all have or moments of insanity. Its a work in progress and if it gets out of hand with the abbreviations then it will be looked at as well and it can be totally eliminated from the vocabulary allowed here.
BTW nice signature!

This has my vote. I don't need so sign on to MFK and see "WTF is this?!" or "WTF My _________ Died!!!". I go on fish keeping forums so I don't have to hear vulgarity like that.
