Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

You don't know me, and quite frankly, I don't need you to question or admonish me about my life or how I should conduct myself. You certainly misinterpreted my self deprecating humor and many have assumed my implications for the post falsely as well. You can't judge individuals from a few words on an insignificant Internet board forum. Tone, character, and a myriad of other factors, which remain unknown to readers of said words, can cause them to erroneously infer a totally misguided interpretation of the "person" behind the keyboard!
Enjoy your board and save your sanctimonious pontification for those who ask for it. I certainly don't need to be accepted on this forum as a measure of my success, exceptional character, or superiority with respect to my business or moral ethics, and integrity. I have lurked here for months, and witnessed first hand the type of inexcusable crap that's slung here. Enjoy it my friend, for I do quite well without the likes of this forum or it's lunatic fringe!

You know, for a guy sooooooo smart, well HE says he is and I guess that's ALL that counts, this guy doesn't seem to get it. He's said several times in this thread that we have "misinterpreted" what he meant to say.
It seems to me that if someone KNOWS he is being misunderstood repeatedly and actually cares, is not in actuality TRYING to be misunderstood, if that someone was actually as smart as the average 8 year old, he would CHANGE his tone or attitude or wording. How could someone SOOOOOOO smart as zoodad not understand that if he wants to be understood it's up to HIM to communicate clearly?
Oh well.
I've read this thread and hope godsmack gets it worked out to his satisfaction.
If you're owed money you should get it back. Call the woman and see what she says. I'm sure someone will and then MORE facts will be coming forth.
And if this one hassle is enough to get you to stay away from reptiles then perhaps you were not so committed to it as you should have been to begin with.
Eveyone has a bad deal on occasion. If you use this board and deal with the GOOD people here your transactions will go MUCH smoother.
Good Luck.

I think I feel the worst for the two PRIMARY characters in this thread... the one who started it, and the one who needs to fix it. I believe that mr. Born-in-a-zoo-dad only befuddled the entire issue. He must have it out for Star Reptiles as well as Godsmack, because it seems to me he hurt her far worse than he helped her.
Yet another one to add to the list of people not to sell to or buy from.
As far as Star Reptiles and Godsmack, I think that given some communication (give her a call Godsmack) things will be ironed out. She'll send you a refund minus the stop-payment charges.

I Think a quote from the 3 amigos is appropriate
Quote:
Forgive me, Guapo. I know that I, Jefe, do not have your superior intellect and education.
|
A slight change:
Forgive me, Jeff. I know that I, Terry, do not have your superior intellect and education, but I would like to know how a member of MENSA can be banned after 22 posts?
It appears to me that while you might be well educated, you obviously do not posses any common sense.
Paul Leger I hope you can work this out and get some sort of satisfaction.
Regards,
Terry

Terry, I think, in this instance, you misspelled EDUCATE, twice no less.
For characters of such high quality and intellect of such stunning caliber as zoodad it really should be spelled EDUMACATE.
I believe it was Homer Simpson who brought this most apt of words to the public at large and it is OH SO FITTING for this genius of communication.

I don't live in Illinois, so I'm not worried about anyone ruining my up, and coming business...but at least I, unlike Zoo Dad, have something that's up and coming.
How can someone that is so smart ( a legend in his own mind even! ), be soo dumb?
Reminds me of Don King...lots of fancy words...but not much substance.
Old Chinese proverb...Empty barrels make a lot of noise.
Well, maybe it was'nt Chinese.
And I've yet to see this entire thread resolved.

Oh the Irony of it all.
For a guy who says a lot......he sure said a whole bunch of nothing.
Even a guy as STUPID as myself figured that out.
Wondering if he helped the thread out any? nope.
godsmacked posted and he asked for proof.
Ms. hetland posted on the other board and he did not asked for proof.
So I questioned him why.......and his basic reply is I am too stupid to understand.
Sorry, he says he was not taking sides. He says he was only interested in facts.
HOW STUPID do you have to be to believe it like he says it?
Obviously I am not stupid enough.
But I will keep trying.
