• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

PLEASE look at the date of the thread you are replying to BEFORE posting

I know this will probably be of little use, as the regulars to these Ads are aware of this, but please look at the date of the ad you are looking at before you reply. Common sense would dictate that someone who was selling Baby Jackson's or needed to get rid of their Veileds because they were moving 2 YEARS AGO probably still don't have them for sale.
 
Oh man this is one of my pet peeves. If the person who posted the for sale ad would simply remove it when the item(s) are sold, we would not have this problem at all.
 
Yeah, it might be too harsh, but maybe start giving warning points for outdated ads. If you are going to go through the trouble of posting an animal for sale, when it's sold take the 2 minutes to lock the thread or add a sold post. :hot: If it's not sold, bump it up every once in a while saying the animal is still available, otherwise delete the darn thing or lock it.
