This question has been addressed again and again. In the future, please post to an existing thread rather than starting a new one. When you post to an existing thread, it will come to the top of the list, and someone will answer your question. Also, there is a sticky in General that goes over some things, please take a look at it : Acronyms and General Info

sorry to bother you but i have read through topics and never found a straight answer, some were saying ge II was unsafe, so this is why i made this topic, not everyone has time to read through 10 pages of topics only to read partial answers

Again, when you post to an existing thread, it will come to the top of the list, and someone will answer your question. If you read through alot of topics, then you could have posted to one of them. Please try to do that in the future, so we can keep everything easier for people when they are trying to find things out. Wouldn't it have been easier for you to find out what you wanted to know if everything was in one thread instead of a bunch of them?

I don't feel this thread is bad per say. However a search would have yielded ...

https://www.vivariumforum.com/communi...icone-1-a.html

There is so much information in the search area its amazing. I think its the reason I really haven't started many threads. Through enough reading and looking I have found pretty much all of the info I was searching for.

This is BigPauls 6th post and you are jumping all over him. Good luck getting him to "post to an existing thread" he's probably afraid another moderator will tell him he's doing that wrong too. I believe a little patience would be nice for our new members.

I was not being impatient, mh32, nor was I jumping all over the OP. I was merely moderating the thread. The question was answered, he got his information, and AFTER that, all I did was ask him to please post in an existing thread next time, and provided a link to a thread with lots of good info that is updated regularly. We're all adults (well, most of us anyway) here and I shouldn't have to sugar coat what I say when I moderate a thread. I was not rude, I simply asked him to do something differently next time. Coming to someone's defense when someone is being mean or rude to them is one thing, but defending them from a moderator who is just doing their job is another one entirely. Anyway, the thread has gotten out of control, so I am closing it.
