Glass test tubes are only suitable for children 15+

People continue to mock me. yeah I'm totally leaving. I don't like this harassment

Honestly if you don't want to be "harassed" stop responding to only the negative posts and try to take something good out of the positive posts that answer your question. Several people have already given you solutions to your problem, in case you did not read those and some how overlooked them, basically people are saying that plastic tubes do not shatter easily and are more durable although they scratch easier and have less visibility, or to get a test tube rack or some putty or something similar to that to secure the tube in place.

I'm pretty sure this time was different. He only responded to one reply and it wasn't even negative, yet still gets harassed, even by a PROFESSIONAL MYRMECOLOGIST! Can we all agree to give the kid a break? What kind of reputation do you think this gives the community?

 

Well, as far as I can tell, he didn't even acknowledge the other responses.

Impressive. How, if I may ask?

I would leave too. I couldn't handle this level of s**t either. I think it'd be a good idea to leave for a few months until the situation dies down.

 Yeah I would leave for a different community once I had caused people to lose all respect for me.

I'm a simple guy. Get on formiculture, see stupid topic, click on stupid topic, argue against said stupid topic: because...internet.

 

Don't drop your tubes, it's your fault.

I would also recommend that hightlyze move to the more beginner friendly in my experience AC forums, as they should be better with easy questions: https://forum.antscanada.com

honestly they werent even being rude to you lol.

If you think about it, he didn't even ask a question. He put no question mark in the first post, and came up with the deeply profound title, "Glass test tubes are stupid", again with no question mark. It makes no sense why we were trying to give suggestions.

pressure from more test tubes and a camera

[FSTP]

this is why I don't use test tubes for anting. I use these https://www.amazon.c...0417750&sr=8-8 

 

I used to use the the kind that had a plastic hinge and snapped close but they're not as durable and sometimes the hinge would break and the lid would fall off in my bag, So I like the screw type now.

You're bringing this onto you by yourself. Start posting some quality content and poeple will stop.

Awh, i don't think my tubes would like to hear this. And personally, i don't think they are that stupid. They are long lasting, they give a clear view. And i like the weight of it.

U can always try to put the tubes in a box. I guarantee u they won't breakthat way.

Please reply if u already read all the good answers here in this thread. And what your next steps will be. So that we know u are one step closer to ant professionalism
