I love geckos, as everyone knows. Specifically, Rhacodactylus ciliatus, the Crested Gecko. I think this should be regarded as an awesome animal on the moon, among many other animals. Here is why: 1. Many people have an affinity to geckos! This can be seen by peoples reaction on the moon when I pull out my gecko. 2. Geckos can sell things really well. Here is an example: Enough said. 3. Geckos are great in sigs. Take mine for example. Or Leo's (Snow11) Or SpeedyReedy (Chris) Or Frejman's (David) Or Shelby's Or Click3tyClick Or the quirkyduos Or Trey's or Bombmaniac or MusicIsMyLife4Eva89 or charlaine2124 or RobertCShepley Or Tiffany or pjpinc123 or Yokailo or sc2416 Aren't the gecko's cute? And here is a list of people who requested sigs with a gecko, and still need one: sc2416 wants a sig of a gecko in space! 4. Yokailo and Cam have BOTH, in the past, independently, told me that they want to get geckos. Other users have expressed their love for other types of reptiles as well. I believe it was Speckley who told me she liked Chinese water dragons. 5. The Gecko is already on the wiki6. Dan Brown is related to a gecko. The evidence above is insurmountable. There is a growing trend of crested gecko loving and I am going to embrace it. Geckos, for some reason seem to bring out strong feelings from members on the moon. Let us just try to keep those feelings constructive. Think about it, and discuss...

I might include this in my new upcoming sig =D Please do! It will help the Gecko cause. Leopard geckos are cool, and Leaf tailed geckos too. But in all honesty, the nicest and cutest geckos are the crested geckos.

If you wont offer an alternative that people on the moon like then STFU. Everyone else seems to like it sans you. So participate in the discussion as to WHY you dont like the gecko, or don't say anything. Saying "ew" is discouraging to people who are trying to discuss this cute animal, and it is very anti-discussion. Something pivotal to the tribe. So are you building the tribe up? Or tearing it down?

Yes... I see how you could think that my sig has something to do with my love of geckos. But you must see the full picture before you jump to conclusions: And so you see, I actually hate geckos and want to turn into a bubble dragon so I can eradicate them all. I'm kidding really. Geckos are cool. And they do suit the pogotribe. Although a monkey might suit it better... who knows. If we do make the gecko the official animal of the pogotribe Jon may explode with happiness. Keep this in mind as you reply, remember you might end up with Jon guts all over you.

But thank you for your input! I think some people, like my aunt Evelyn, do find geckos gross. But they are not sticky, or anything like that. They are very clean, and feel soft, but not mushy! But I acknowledge that many people think geckos are gross.

a mushy gecko is probably not a live one... just saying
I think, as far as a "SPOTM" mascot goes, it'd be hard to limit it to one single animal, there are tons of different kinds of people here, and one animal cannot suit us all... don't get me wrong, I don't hate geckos or anything like that, just don't think it's applicable to all of us as a whole, but then again, what do I know, still pretty new to this place =P

But I acknowledge that many people think geckos are gross. that does not mask that fact that you have an obvious problem with me. No I don't. I love you zak. I have a problem with un-constructive posts. Like in the munny challenge. You said you cant wait till it was over. Why don't you do that in other projects? I was trying to do something positive for the moon, and it turned out great, but you decided to tear it down. Saying "ew" in your post above, had the same affect. None of the constructiveness, and all of the destructiveness. I have no problem with you as a person. You can be awesome when you want to be. But I do think that you post without thinking, and that I have a problem with. Sometimes people are trying to have a discussion. Like I said before, my motto is "If you wont offer an alternative that people on the moon like then STFU".
