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.

Do you know what pisses me off more than anything? I have been out of the herp field for 10 years and just recently got back into this. 10 years ago the thought of scamming someone just was not there. I have had to learn to take my time to figure out who I can trust and who I cannot. One of the first deals I looked at doing was with Sal of Boca. I come to the BOI and bam, I see his reputation is not a favorable one to say the least. The BOI saved me. I had a list of 10 or so people that I just knew I could trust and dammit, Bills name was one of them. Who the hell can a person trust now adays? It's people like Bill that are causing individuals like me to only deal with people when I am physically standing in front of them. Bill, you just took everything I knew to be correct and threw it out the window for me. Whose to say that I can trust these other 9 people on my list now? Thanks alot Bill for shattering my reality. You are getting off way to easily.

And depending on the state you live in, if he was unarmed they give you a nice needle in your arm for that, and when you wake up, you're dead.

"And depending on the state you live in, if he was unarmed they give you a nice needle in your arm for that, and when you wake up, you're dead."
which, by the way, can be a real bummer...

I am floored. Completely floored. Never in my wildest dreams......
You know, when you see a known scammer or an unknown person pull this crap you get a sense of satisfaction when you see them busted. Yet no real emotional feelings.
Yet with you Bill I am filled with sadness, disappointment and betrayal. I feel almost like I did when I busted my ex-wife with my best friend 10 years ago. No satisafaction for busting them in their wrongs...... just sadness, disappointment and betrayal.

Actually Joe I was not chiding you. When I keep the target in sight I ment dont be angry at Mike, Bill is the one you are mad at. I don't have a problem if someone makes a little joke to lighten things up once in a while. Sorry if you thought I was scolding you. Just trying to remind you that we are all on the same side (in regard to Mike) here.
You may also consider I have been with this thread from its infancy and I was the only person that had the guts to be the first guy to say that "they look like the same snake to me", while crossing swords with 3 pages of very reputable people (including one moderator). I did not see you backing me up then, or later. If it were not for Ben I surely would have been crusified along with Lee. I guess my little one liner was just due to the stress. Anyway thanks for the reminder. I will try to do better.
