    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

just wanted to share some pictures

Well thats about a quarter of my collection im about to take some more pictures. I have some new stuff from the reptile show 2 weeks ago. I hope you enjoy the pictures.
 
Why are you posting photos of nonvenomous snakes in the venomous forum? I'm sure there are other forums where it's appropriate to post pictures of nonvenomous herps.
 
Some people here might enjoy them because their interests overlap. Some people here might also enjoy diagrams of model trains, or tips on needlepoint, or recipes for figgy pudding, or photos of surfboards. So why don't we just start posting all that stuff here?

There's a reason. Even if some people who come to a venomous snake forum might also have other interests, they can more easily find those things in their proper places. If people start posting all kinds of whatever in the venomous snake forum, pretty soon nobody knows where to look for anything and it all turns into a pile of junk you have to wade through to get what you were actually looking for.

If you posted baseball pictures on a basketball forum, some people might also be baseball fans, but other people aren't interested. And the people who are interested will still be annoyed because if they want to look at baseball pics, they would be going to the baseball forum, not the basketball forum.

And let's say somebody decides to post some pictures of sailboats on the basketball forum also, since other people have already started posting non basketball stuff. Then somebody else posts about their vacation to Hawaii and how they went surfing, and pretty soon what used to be a basketball forum is now full of all kinds of non basketball stuff. So it's not really a basketball forum any more, so people who are interested in basketball can't use it for its intended purpose. The forum turns into a pile of random junk and pretty soon nobody really has any reason to go there. Why should they? There's not likely to be anything they are actually interested in, not if people post all kinds of things that are not related to the topic of the forum.

Please keep the forums on topic and use them for their intented purpose. Post python pictures on the python forum. Don't post python pictures on the venomous forums. Don't post venomous pictures on the python forum. What is welcome and on topic in one forum is unwelcome clutter and off topic junk in another forum. That's a pretty basic lesson of netiquette that everyone should learn as early as possible.
 
It's not that it's *my* forum. It's everybody's forum, including yours, so let's all please work at maintaining the place.
