OMG This is bad...

^ yet another example of your pure ignorance...:clap:

You know maybe its just me but ummm im seeing a lot of people being talked down to.

he said his T hadn't been doing well. So maybe its a good thing the male was eaten instead of dying because it helped the female in the end.

I don't understand why you wrote this. I do not recall the guy saying that his T wasn't doing well, I thought he only said that it was a 'picky eater'.

Honestly, if you had a sick or dying T would you really turn it into a gladiator?
I think most people would do the humane thing when euthanizing a sick or dying pet by putting it in the freezer. Unless they are a sadist.

If you're going to say anything in a public forum, be prepared to take some level of criticism, and listen to advice from people who are more knowledgeable.

Dawg, people are telling you you should have done research, and giving further reason why the divided enclosure was a bad idea. Getting so defensive about it is immature at best.

Maybe it is just hard knowing that you could have done something and instead just watched. No need to snap at people here for it, it's your own fault.

people are post count trolls who can't comprehend.

In response to this because everythign else has been covered...

No one gets any posts counted in the Tarantula Chat sub forum. Notice you're still at 1 post?

 

[Tindalos]

im going to blunt. i saw this thread and i laughed.
i enjoyed watching you tear yourself down.
while it is sad you lost your T. your beloved pet etc.
its your own fault.
a little research would have prevented everything in the first place
we all make mistakes ALL OF US.
but we admit and learned from it.

your ignorance, your fault.
sorry for the lost T, but at least you wont have to worry about food for the other one for a few months

It is posters such as this one that has run off all the so called "know it alls" & the so called "elitist"..

The people that were here before.. The ones that knew how to help in a situation that needed it..

What is the point in them even being here if you get people such as yourself here telling them they are wrong? :wall:

Eh.. Whatever.....

OMG This is bad...

 

[AbraCadaver]

Oh my.. This thread is way beyond being helpfull to anyone, but it did sure give me a good laugh.. I can't feel sorry for people like this, they don't want to learn, they just want to stir the poop..

I am seeing a smallara 2 here.. And now that number 1 was finally starting to get it

 

[Chris_Skeleton]

I also stated we were calling it that until further notice. Once again you can't read & comprehend altogether. This is obviously an issue with you, why are you on these boards. <edit>. I'm not the only one on here who isn't good at sexing T's. ONCE AGAIN there is an entire forum for those needing T's sexed. Oh all-knowing one.

Listen here Dawg, I don't know who you think you were talking to, but I have tried to be nothing but helpful, and merely ask some questions to get facts straight. Yes I can read and comprehend, but you stated two different things so I was trying to get straight what you said, nothing else. Did you post in those forums to get your T sexed? No you didn't. So how you would even have a clue at what sex it is, is beyond me. I'm on these boards to give advice. What are you here for? Clearly it's not taking advice. So I have nothing more for you. Stir the crap somewhere else. You're the one coming off as the "all knowing one"

-I just might have to pull a sig from this thread.

 

[Mister Internet]

Hey, you guys... yes, you, the people that have been in this hobby long enough to know better. The people that should be understanding of noob mistakes and who have probably made more than their fair share. The people that are (ostensibly) here to HELP future hobbyists learn from their mistakes and provide helpful guidance. The people who only GOT the knowledge they have on the shoulders of others and by virtue of their own stupid mistakes...

Yeah, you...

Cut the crap. I mean seriously... cut the crap. HE was on a high horse?? He was reasonably subdued and seemed to genuinely be sorry that things had transpired the way they had. He KNEW he screwed up, that wasn't the point. Then you people start with "You COST A LIVING THING ITZ LIFE OMGZZZZ!!!" and "NEVER KEEP ANYTHING UNTIL ZYOU"VE READ THE WHOLE INTERNETZ TWICE". Good lord. The TRUTH of the matter is that you people (you know who you are) weren't going to be happy until EVERRRRRRYONE had gotten their pound of flesh... what, do you feel entitled to it at this point? Noobs only get help when they've endured enough thrashing from everyone who feels entitled to it?

Yes, he was wrong... I think he knew that before ANY of you "helpful" people posted. Yes, he needed to do more research. I think he knew that before any of you posted. What he was NOT, before anyof you posted, was defensive and irritated... YOU people caused that because that's what you wanted. It almost seems like you want noobs to feel some crushing weight of guilt for their mistakes before you'll dole out information from your ivory tower.

They are TARANTULAS, people, get over it. "Cost a living thing its life?" Spare me... you cost thousands of living things their lives every day. It's a SPIDER, it is not a PERSON. We OWN them, their lives are OUR property... if they die, THEY DIE. Sure, it says something about a person if they enjoy pulling all their legs off and setting the body on fire, but that's not what we're talking about, is it? We're talking about a noob mistake... which we've all done. I've killed tarantulas, and you have too. It goes with the hobby. What DOESN'T go with the hobby is taking a noob that has all but already admitted publicly that they screwed up, and raking them over the coals to make sure they understand how idiotic and irresponsible they been before they are worthy of your advice.

When did the hobby become about THAT, guys? I mean really?

IT'S A BUG. Help him learn, and he might not kill any more. Tear him a new hole because he maybe didn't search enough, and he'll probably kill more. Your call. It's not the crime against humanity that you all are trying to make it out to be... it's not cruelty to animals, and it's certainly not a moral crises. A bug died, get over it... and help, if you feel so inclined. If you don't, then maybe you should post less, or not at all?

I think if I was a newb today, I'd be scared to post too...

 

[AbraCadaver]

For the first time, Mister Internett, I disagree with you. I think that some of the post made on the first page was calm, composed and helpfull - the OP took it all as evilness, and got his panties in a bunch.

Yes, it developed into something foul, but I must say I think the OP overreacted somewhat - some of what was written was well written, and genuine advice.

 

[popcangenie]

I have pics of the disaster too if you guys want to see her postured over his frail body.

Here are a few pics of this beast. LOL Remember my T was 4.5"inches easily and when she stood over him it wasn't even close. Now if Rosea's can get 6"inches that's fine, but her body was already monstrous compared to his, and now after consuming him, sh
e is ridiculous and sitting in the middle of her enclosure like he wasn't enough!! The nerve of this girl.

Here she is just 10 minutes ago like it never happened!!



you said all of this... dose this sound sad? you KILLED a animal!:barf: I do NOT feel sorry for you and of course your 6 year old understands he/she is SIX e/she is gonna believe DADDY :? if you told her dogs are dinosaur him/her would say ...hmmm that makes sense dad said it! you should of done you research and you did not it's your fault now stop try to blame others and stop trying to flame this tread because at this point im not going to even give you the time of day to help you next time when i said "could you show us the divider" I was going to tell you where you went wrong!

sorry to all the other people for my rant but this really upsets me!

i agree +1

LMAO, I thought the EXACT THING!!!!!!!!!!!

Before I bought ANY T, I read two books, joined three forums, and read as much newbie info as I could, and trolled for almost a year. Thats me. You obviously took the short road to knowledge.

You come onto the forum, can't identify your T, can't I dentify gender, make a MAKE SHIFT split tank (what is that styrofoam) and watch as your docile T sits on its ghetto divider before it gets munched, and you POST IT.

You gotta be kidding me!!!!

This is good stuff. I have been here a few yrs, I have read alot of peoples mistakes, but you my friend take the cake.

I am no T god, coulnd't care less about post counts (in 3 yrs only a few hundred) and I am willing to share any of my modest knowledge with anyone for the asking.

For you, no advice, just a good laugh.

I do feel for the lil guy you got killed.

PIG-

+1 The OP caused this. And to Mister Internet, we told him what the problem was, what should be done to correct it, and gave him advice. He turned and twisted it, not us. But I do agree some of the posts on here were uncalled for. And some of us were trying to help, so don't even say we weren't.

 

[syndicate]

Yeah unlike Mr.Internet some people actually value the lives of there tarantulas and don't think of them as just a "bug" and no big deal if it dies.I know lots of people here that care dearly about there pet tarantulas and consider them to be much more than just "property" they own.
To the Original poster that's to bad about your rosea man..I don't think there was any reason for you to get so upset when people are just trying to help tho!
Some split tanks can work OK and there's actually a couple people on the forum selling custom made acrylic tanks that are divided.May want to look into something like that!
