Hey peoples, didn't think I'd register at anymore snake/reptile forums but I've been thinking a lot about Garters lately and I really do like them, and getting back into them soon, found this site and figured why not. :) Right now I own a Variable Kingsnake and two kenyan sand boas, and I'm going to a reptile expo in September and I was considering all my options and I keep coming back to garter snakes even, and it's not just cause their cheap, I was thinking about snakes up to nearly $100 but again come back to Garters, they were my first snake and I remember them being lots of fun and would like to give them another try. I'm also obessed with snake care and information, so I'll probably be combing these forums for every bit of info I can :D So yeah that's it for now, look forward to posting pics of new garter in the future.

Hi Cody, and welcome to the forum.:)

[Mommy2many]

Welcome to the forum, Cody!

[CalmLikeABomb]

Thanks everyone, yeah I really do look forward, I think I will have lots more fun this time around, specially since I'll be able to take MUCH better care of them. I mean when I was a kid had no computer, no resources, I read plenty ABOUT snakes but their care is a different thing, back when depended on the pet store clerk to inform you on how to correctly take care of your pet, now I knows those pet store GOONS probably knew less about snakes than I did when I was 14 ha. This time I'll be fully capable of providing excellent care to ensure my snakes live a healthy life :cool:

holy crap neither did I and I was gonna say welcome and all the goodies. Is Cody still around anywhere? Did he ever get his snake.... Who knows righ. Instead of u being the only one to write in here Id join u.

[guidofatherof5]

Cody was last active 10/9/09.

[Mrs N1ntndo]

bummer. It woulda been nice to see if he ever got a snake and what it looked like. Which reminds me and I hate to ask this her but the thread was abandoned. Who is the person who started these forums and are they around still.

[kibakiba]

Boots started the forum, and he checks in every once in a while.

[Mrs N1ntndo]

i was thinking that. He had agreat idea and I love these forums. So out of the around 9000 people that belong it seems to me that we ( our group ) are the only ones that are really around anymore. Is it really like that cause i dont really see much more then us few

[kibakiba]

Well, life does get in the way and life should come before forums.

Also...
ITS OVER 9000!!!!!!11!1 :D

[RedSidedSPR]

Jeez, I just read the while thread thinking it was new!!!:D

The membership numbers are inaccurate, as with any forum. When the spam bots hacked the "CAPTCHA" (human verification script) Nearly every forum on the net got hammered with tons of computer generated accounts.

The membership numbers are inaccurate, as with any forum.

So maybe there could be a “NAD” (Non-activity drop) flag set on accounts. Say no posts from a member in two years, then they are flagged, a warning sent to the account holder regarding the pending drop. Then say no reply within X days they are taken off the membership rolls?

In my lodge, we lose 3-4 members each year for this very thing. It helps us to keep informed of those who really want to be a part of something.

[ConcinusMan]

Sounds reasonable

[ConcinusMan]

Jeez, I just read the while thread thinking it was new!!!:D

That's because somebody replied to an ancient thread. :rolleyes:
