Poll, and Apologies

[Ziggurat]

I apologise for the comment I made about sueing people. At the time I did not realize Triskel Leopard Geckos was an unoriginal name. I was not actually going to sue anybody. I am a total newbie to the world of leopard gecko breeding, and have a form of autism that makes me tend to make social mistakes. When I said that I was denied educational opportunities, I meant that I had to be pulled out of school because my last teachers, and I quote, 'tried to frighten me into submission' several times, by nearly pulling my limbs out of my sockets. Since then I have been home-schooled. It was not because I am female.

I am aware that I am not ready to start a breeding hobby/business quite yet. If I gave the impression I was going to jump into it that very second or something, I did not mean to. I am currently just collecting information and planning early. You could call me overenthusiastic. It will take me MONTHS to be ready, and even then I will have to spend quality time with my breeders and practicing full-time gecko care before breeding them. If I do have to rename my business when I get it up and running (may I reiterate it will be a small business?) I will call it it...say....'Kuraikiba Leopard Geckos'.

According to google, kurai is japanese for dark and kiba fang, and it shouldn't be too hard for english tongues to pronounce. Unless there is a Japanese breeder that uses that name I am unaware of. Which google says there isn't.

Can everyone who got offended by me start over with myself?

How many different threads do you need to make about names etc? Keep to one thread for the same thing.

Stop worrying about the names and how much you are going to make and worry about being able to take care of these animals you want to acquire. The rest will fall into place. You are getting way ahead of yourself. Your only concern should be taking care of these animals as good as you possibly can since you are so new. Worry about the rest later.

I applaud your enthusiasm, but am afraid you aren't going to make a whole lot of friends around here by jumping in head first and blindfolded. Slow down. Stop talking so much and just listen. Read. Goto the library and checkout a bunch of books about animals. Reptiles, lizards, snakes whatever you can get your hands on and just read. Take it all in. You can answer many of your own questions this way. Not that we don't want to..

Give a man a fish, and he's fed for a day. Teach a man to fish, and he's fed for a lifetime. Getting everything handed to you is not the way to learn something. You have to actively search and acquire the knowledge on your own. Ask for clarification here. People will be much more willing to help if they see you have made some effort on your own..

Theres no need to ask for apologies nor is there any reason for anyone to forgive you. Just change the way you are going about things and everyone will be happy. Everything will be water under the bridge.
Hope that makes sense.

This thread needs to stay on topic. The topic is in the subject title. No more off topic or snide remarks; just keep it to yourself please. Thanks!

It's kinda long and most people are not going to understand the Japanese or remember how to spell it. Also, in the future you may want to expand into other species of geckos or even other reptiles, so you may just want to eliminate the 'leopard' part.
