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.

Just had to ruin our plans for the gummy bears robbery, huh?

Rubin's continued snipes look to me like someone trying to get banned just so he can run back to his friends saying "Look look! See how unfair!! I was just BANNED!" Mike coming to jump up and say that Webslave was rude is suspicious considering that Webslave's reply said "The Feedback Forum is your friend" and not "Look you lazy doofus, read the stupid posted blaring red announcement and you'd know!"(which would probably be MY response and thus why I don't run a website.... that and a complete lack of computer skills... and a lack of time)

Why would I want to banned from Fauna. I come to this site everyday, and many people post here on my behalf..... Calling me names just makes you look like a bully. I am just hear sharing my views....Can you not handle the truth? You spin it your way and I will spin it mine. I never wanted to be banned and if I was it would be pretty petty and would answer a lot questions to a lot of people and forum subscribers. And my name is Bill...Not Rubin....But you can call me what ever you like bully....
Regards,
Bill Rubin

Perhaps you missed it, but I have no standing here, no authority here... so how exactly am I bullying you? Perhaps it hit a bit too close to home? Posting my opinion isn't allowed because you disagree? Posting my opinion is now labeled "bullying" because you don't like what I have to say?
You ran in, not to defend the OP, but to raise a fuss because someone dissed your buddy Mike.
I used Rubin instead of Bill because there's several Bill's on the site. I don't believe there's another Rubin. I didn't call you a name, I said if you ACT like a doofus. But then, you don't seem really keen on the truth anyway.
Plus, why would you think that someone's popularity on another site would somehow mean they should not have to behave here? Is that how forums are supposed to be run? The one thing that I like about Fauna is that all members, popular or not, still have to follow the rules.

As has been pointed out a few times, this IS a BOI thread. We've allowed a fair amount of latitude, given the subject, but the sideline squabbles seem to have taken over. Anybody notice that the OP hasn't said anything else?
While I'm sure that Rich appreciates the support that has been shown, this isn't Us (paid members) against Them (registered members). "Them" is still Us..."Us" being the members of Faunaclassifieds.com. Let's keep this civil, and try to bring it back to the initial focus of the thread - customer service at FaunaClassifieds.
For those of you with concerns regarding the policies that affect what you perceive as customer service, those discussions ARE better suited for the Fauna Feedback Forum. That is one of the stated purposes of that section....and, after all, the Feedback Forum is our friend

Probably came to his senses or realized he wasn't going to get the response he's looking for, and maybe he's more of a swedish fish kinda guy.

Share the gummy bears
This is definitely not 'registered versus paid'. I'm not a contributor (yet...broke...), and I still think this thread was completely uncalled for. ESPECIALLY since the OP lied about the PMs.
I have PMed Rich before, asking him a ridiculously stupid question, and he replied with absolutely no attitude towards me whatsoever. Although I did feel like a dumb afterwards, as I should have known the answer.
