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.

Paying to rate someone. A Dumb F*****G IDEA
I just figured out that the person who sold me a beautiful snake a month ago cant be rated by me. This is the first time I have used fauna but he has been on this site for 3 years. What really pisses me off is that credit is due for the CONTRIBUTING member of this website and yet he wont get it because im not a contributing member. The transaction was as smooth as can be and he deserves to know my opinion as do others to increase his business but that wont happen. Someone needs to rethink the whole method of leaving feedback because paying money to give someone positive words and thanks is fucked up.
Making money from our opinions. WOW!

Gavin,
Why not start a Good Guy post on him in the BOI?

Actually, this is at least the second time you've used this site. It only bears mentioning because your previous post - back in August - was on the BOI...giving feedback (for free).
BTW - I suggest you review the rules for posting on this site.

If it's that important to you, man up the money and take advantage of all the site has to offer. Like Lucille said, you can do a BOI for free as well.

Hah... Two posts to his name in the couple of months he's been here and 50 percent of them is just bitching and moaning. Just another part time backseat driver without a roadmap.......

From an actual web developer standpoint (which shouldn't be too far off with this pre-fabbed Vbulletin stuff) - no news is usually good news. Having people willing to complain means some level of engagement is occurring.
While OP's response wasn't as eloquent as it could have been, a good moderator or webmaster should be able to respond in such a way that a) does not berate or belittle the participant and b) encourages participation of others.
His point isn't completely off, since it's been mentioned by both sellers and buyers previously. It's hardly appropriate to mock contribution merely based on lack of previous contribution. That seems rather backward if your goal is to solicit feedback.

A spade is a spade, so why beat around the bush about it? Someone willing to take a slap at my face best be prepared to take one right back.

While it's a nice sentiment Danielle, the OP came out firing, being rather combative and using profanity (which is against the rules). That isn't exactly a great way to start discourse on ways they think the site could be improved... plus, since they broke a rule it's pretty easy to assume they didn't search the feedback forum for this topic, which as noted has been brought up quite a few times. Just my $0.02

adressing the issue at hand?
Ya i used a bad word. we are all adults and this isnt grade school. I understand its against the rules but i was upset at how this website works and still am. there are numerous complaints about the fact that only contributing members can post feedback and yes I DID read them ^. I am a college student trying to enjoy my hobby and dont need to be spending money to leave a good review about a great seller. so thats my $0.02. money controls our everyday lives why let that interfere with the thing that separates us from those lives?
