Nothing wrong with the forum at all. I do though would like to say something about the 10 minute rule or whatever it is on editing your post. Sometimes I'll think of something else I wanted to add to my post or maybe even correct an error that I had made but if it's past the time limit, you can only make another post. I know this drives up the post count which looks good but then it also makes things harder to follow if the mistake is corrected on the next page or even further. It's no big problem, just maybe more of an annoyance to me seeing an error in my post and not being able to correct it.

Keep up the good work Josh!

That rule helps to keep everyone accountable for what they post, not being able to go back later on and remove something from their post. (which can in turn make a thread look fairly awkward when the replies dont look like they belong to the previous posts)

I understand what it's for and see it's worth, it's just annoying to me.

sorry about that chucky
thanks for the replies everyone. i can't emphasize enough how eager i am to read your feedback and hear your thoughts.

Well I'm new here but so far I think it's a fantastic site and you seem to attract all the right sort of people in that everyone is so eager to help others wherever they can to ensure we all look after our tortoises to the best of our ability.A very useful site and a nice place to be. Great work!

josh this is just an idea. is there a way to put a banner or something under the photo contest winners avatar or something. it would be an extra prize and recognition on the forum. just an idea. thanks

Josh, I feel the forum is developing at just the right speed. The members seem to enjoy and have fun with most of the posts. I know I do and the information gleaned from this site, I personally feel has been invaluable. I feel it is user friendly and not mucked up with a lot of extra stuff that only seems to get in the way of what I really want a forum that I can communicate with others that have the same Passion for torts and turts that I have. I think you have done a Great Job setting up and administrating the forum and always keep the members needs, wants, and concerns in mind, and I think its members have done a Super Job of utilizing the tool you have given us. So Thank you, for helping to make this one of the friendliest, most fun, and informative Tort Forums I have been on. Without your vision we would not all be here together talking torts..

I agree, the 10 min edit rule is a good one.

This is a very awesome site. Ive been to sites where the MODs have become like the finally authority. I mean outside of just moderating the forums. If you disagree with their care advice they jump all over you. Even if they are wrong.

This site is going to be (already is but potently on a greater scale ) A happy home for all tortoise keepers all over the world. From breeders and hobbyist to people who just have one as a pet. We have to continue to build a solid foundation. Because a fortress with out a foundation is just a pile of rocks.

Josh awesome job.
