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.

This, I know it may seem like the BOI is being inconsiderate of this man's misfortunes, but if it really was affecting him that badly, he should have sold the business to someone who would take care of it, maintained the business but taken on a partner, or just put it on hold for a while. I doubt any one here is purposely tromping all over this man's sadness but if it was any other business, say a Deli and I got Food poisoning repeatedly due to neglect (Which is clearly showed here) he would loose my business, and would maybe have to start dealing with some bigger guns other than just an unhappy customer.
As far as the snake in question goes, I'm new to the herp community but even I can clearly see how bad a shape that poor thing was in.

Also pardon my excessive commas wish there were edits allowed on the BOI.

I AM NOT THE BOI.
Actually, I do know what you mean, and were only using my post as an example of what you were referring to (the general feeling), but the phrasing is unfortunate and inapplicable to the reference post. This is my opinion only, based on my interpretation of her posts. just wanted to make that clear and forestall any attempts to misinterpret my motivations, or posts.

Oh jeese I'm sorry let me correct that here and now myself. I'm sorry deborah your post just summed up what I felt was a good point, my fault for totally misrepresenting it!
In no way am I singling out Deborah as the BOI, and merely chose to comment on her post in the effort that the next line of defense from defenders of the snake shop will turn upon how we are ignoring his misfortune.

It is wrong to use life's misfourtunes to "scam", lie and generally disceive others. It is wrong to neglect any creature for any reason.

They have been around for a long time at the flea market; it would seem that they just recently discovered the internet when they moved locations?
