LOL I will, but it might take me a while and I'll have to ask Royalbob or GMac to post pics for me as photobucket won't oblige, grr!
Hey, you probably know this, but I've just seen a news item about the Beckhams buying a beardie for their eldest son. I'm pleased that the lad's being given a chance to get into reptiles, may counterbalance the artificial life of the 'celebrity' child, but the notion that loads of other glamour-stricken parents will see beardies as the latest pet for their kiddiwinkies, that's not so good ... |

| I didn't know about that, but I agree that it might not turn out to be such a good thing if people catch on with the 'trend'. I hate that. People buying animals purely to look good or feel fashionable >: ( |

LOL - the mind boggles!
People like that should stick to handbags - at least they can rehome them to Oxfam ... |

| I've e-mailed someone over at mybeardeddragons about registering there. I had to do that first 'cause they won't accept me otherwise 'cause I have a gmail e-mail account and apparently they don't like them : / No word back yet though, so I'm just waiting to see what they say... |

Just very quickly, before I go out. Unfortunatly they won't let me join. They say they have banned anyone with a gmail e-mail account from joining, 'cause they might be a spammer. I do understand this, but I'm dissapointed that I'm being judged purely by what e-mail account I have. I've just replied back and said it's a shame 'cause they were actually recomended to me by you, reptilemadd (have mentioned no usernames or this or any other site/forum).
Do you happen to know of any other forum I could join that are more suited to beardies, or would it be an idea to join reptilian?
Thanks for all your ongoing help : ) |

Oh really, that's silly isn't it?
Have you tried RFUK (though not my cup of tea on the snake side, must admit ...) |

Oh, I wasn't saying anything was bad about reptillian at all. It's the first forum I asked about 'cause I thought it would be good and was just wanting people's opinions. The reason I ask about other forums is just 'cause maybe it might be better to join one that is more beardie-spercific is all. I actually might still join Reptillian anyway.
So, after e-mailing back and mentioning that the mybeardeddragons forum was actually recomended to me by someone, and isn't it a shame they won't let me join I got another e-mail back. He has temporeraly lifted the ban for me to join. That's very nice of him (well, I think he's being nice, but I'm still not sure I want to join now), but the registration page isn't showing a comfirmation code, so I can't join anyway. So I've sent another e-mail explaining that and we'll just have to see what happens.
This is turning out to be more of a pain than raising a puppy! : / |

That's OK : )
So, got another e-mail back, turns out it was just a mistake and they said they'd fixed it, but it still won't let me register 'cause it won't let me have my e-mail address, despite saying they'd blocked the ban with gmail : /
They said they could register for me though, so I'm just going to have to wait and see... again. |

Really sorry for all the messing blue I have a normal e-mail account (never heard of this g-mail) so I never had any problem joining can you read the posts without joining cuase to be honest any questions you might have will probably have been asked before, not Ideal I know but it's as they say a start  meanwhile I'm sure the reptilian will be able to offer excellent advise and insights... |

I've been registered into the forum for me, so I'm now finally a member. Haven't introduced myself yet, will do that over the weekend, but I'm hoping I can actually post...
Yeah, I've been hovering around and reading all the threads. Some interesting stuff. Yet to get to know all the different phases/morphs and their names, but that's not important.
Yes, still tempted to join Reptillian as well : ) |
