I was Just tossing this idea around in my head... There is alot of room to toss!

How about a section for common scorpion related problems and solutions, then sub sections for specific problems such as mycosis, bleeding wounds, missing limbs, fungus in the tank or whatever... and maybe a definitions section for questions such as... "I got white jumpy things in my tank what are they" /springtail pics, description and definition section/ "what are rollie polies" / isopod pics, definition and description.

This is just a loose scattering of a thought I was tossing around (during some of the tossing pieces got stuck to the wall) and I would like to get thought on developing a purposful structure.

If you can come up with some structure to that idea on how you propose it should be done than I guess I will have to say YES. I like the idea. Me and Mike created a definition of common word in the hobby that we havent gotten around to updating maybe we can add that there. I don't think a subforum is neccesary though maybe a sticky?

Yeah, I was just thinking of mine and Eddy's glossary -- maybe post it as a sticky in the "general scorpion" forum. I like the idea of having pictures for the "mite" questions.

I like Michael's idea and my vote would be to put it in the Learning The Hobby subforum as a problems and solutions section

I like that idea check out the word list

Good call, Ras -- I hadn't even thought of that location.

if your scorps bleeding put super glue in the wound, itll stop the bleeding, or dirt. and white jumpy things sound like pinhead crickets lol.

I think you missed the point of the thread

I thought he was contributing to the list . . .

honestly, i think it's a great idea, but I think most of this forum needs to be cleaned up. i have to scroll for at least a minute to get to the bottom.

use the search option then

Some things have been condensed from the original version, and a few things that we thought deserved their own sections had been expanded.

The forum actually got a bit of a cleanup a few months ago, and we ran the design by the members before finalizing it.

J, if you have some ideas toss them our way.

that will do little to nothing to solve my problem.

iheartmantids: this was the cleaned up version? i've been on message boards that are straight and to the point. i think that a lot of this could be condensed even further.

j'sayin.

Theres a lot of thing here that we find neccesary. I think the people on this forum know each other a little better becasuse of the comunity section. But all scorpion relater material is on the top for easy viewing.

what about some form of database of species and what location they can be found in something a bit like redtox.org i think that would be quite a usefull tool especially for the people out there that hunt for scorps lol

KAri's page has something similar. BUt to gather all that information might prove to be difficult.

no doubt about it im sure it would be quite the epic task, but reading through these bords we have sum amazingly intelligent people and im sure if everyone helped and along with the internet aswell, we could soon have something like it up and running

Well you can check out ScorpionPedia in our portal.

yeah, we've been working on that idea with the scorpopedia - it's one of my sig bars. I haven't been on there lately but I've been all over the place with personal stuff to be able to sit down to it

kool

A debate forum

a debate forum could be fun but at the same time could cause problems, however saying that i guess the whole point of a forum is to debate certain things
