Wondering if anyone has started a collection of bad t. videos?

Just like the title, was wondering if there were a collection of bad tarantula videos.

Bad keeping, misinformation, horrible mishaps due to careless human error, and more... I think you get the idea.

I wanted to know if there was a thread already done, if not, I would like to start one. I would love go give visual examples to those new to the hobby a "What Not To Do". Plus something for us with a little experience something to discuss over. I know there are many videos out there.

If there isn't, where would I start it? Would anyone be interested?

I try to focus more on what keepers are doing right and watch videos that increase my knowledge and better my husbandry. I would be interested in a thread where we could post our favorite videos.

I like that but I could argue (being a devils advocate), how do you know what they are doing is right? Unless it's been proven to be wrong in the past. Showing mistakes is a really great way to learn.

I would love to show the good and the bad. So how about a thread showing tarantula videos in general?

There are absolutely tons out there but much of it has been bad or plainly misinformed.

I'm off for the winter, so I wanted to do something constructive with my time.

The thing I like about this forum is that everyone tries to keep the environment polite and uplifting even when correcting another keepers husbandry. I just fear it would turn into a thread bashing other keepers. That’s just my opinion though.

Never mind I shall drop it then. Since you have already proven the point of how it would be misinterpreted.
