Why do we need another one of these polls? HawaiiAnt can just update them from time to time...
Edit: It just clutters up the thread in my opinion :)

Are the Camponotus supposed to be majors or minors? Camponotus majors are incredibly good at disposing other ants up to a point where a handful of them can kill off an entire young colony of over hundred smaller ants like Lasius.

There is not a single thing wrong with this post. I do not believe you are in any position to be criticising anyone's posts. We don't need to take a look through yours do we?

Alabama anter, I was simply stating my thoughts, and I never said anything wrong that needed to be done with a private message.

This post was with some of the same species, and some of the different species from the other post. Like TC said, you are in no place to criticize anyone. You constantly endanger the already small diversity in Alabama, as you buy things from other places, even Asia and Europe. You even continue after you have been warned.

At first, I didn't understand when people said that most kids are ruining this forum. Now I'm starting to understand. I'm a kid, and even the same age as you, and I act more mature. "Jeez, are u salty" Really?

You announced on Discord that you were going to buy 20 or so Lasius Niger colonies from EU, was that a joke? Grow up? Me? I'm just saying why my side of the argument is correct. Everyone else wants to actually participate in this, it's kind of fun. All you want to do is act mature, but you end up messing it up because you can't help but say something like "jeez, u salty?" "****ing"

I felt the same way. I definetly think there should be like / dislike buttons on threads.
