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.

Bad Guy Post - Herper370 / leopardgex15 / herptavern
I know this is a trivial post, but I felt it deserved to be here so that people do not get messed around with by these kids.
I don't even know where to begin with the backstory here. Basically, months ago when I was a moderator at a certain forum these kids started Instant Messaging me with alternating innocent questions on leopard geckos and harassing vulgar messages... Each time they would IM me and pretend I had never spoken to them. They even IMed me at the same time, claiming I must have been speaking to their twin brothers (now apparently I was speaking to both twin brothers at the same time, for the third day in a row, and both were claiming I had never spoken to them and must have spoken to the other twin)
January was the last time I spoke to them. I finally blocked all their accounts that I knew about. Unfortunately about a month ago I reformatted my computer and with it all the blocks were gone.
Today, I get an IM from one of them, asking if I'd like to buy leopard geckos from them.
I don't know why I'm a glutten for punishment but after a moment I decided to see just what lies this kid was going to try this time.
herper370: are you interested in any leopard geckos
PommeDeSang343: not from you
herper370: why
PommeDeSang343: you know why
herper370: no i dont
PommeDeSang343: and you're not going to win any sales randomly iming people who you used to harass
herper370: really
herper370: that sucks
herper370: i have sold 40 geckos so far
PommeDeSang343: really? then why are you trying to sell to someone that wants nothing to do with you?
herper370: #### off cock lock
It goes on, but the vulgarities and lies just get worse, i'm afraid it wouldn't be too comprehendable...
Let me just sum it up with:
HerpTavern/Herper370/LeopardGex15/Ian/Jordan - Immature, dishonest kids willing to lie to get a sale, or an imaginary friend.

Which brings up a good point...
He can make up anything he wants in IMs. Logs are generated on the individual computers.
I have a log of everything and know exactly what I didn't say. But I have no way to prove it any more than HerpTavern does.
Perhaps it's fortunate then, that HerpTavern's fictional dialogue was unsigned and will be deleted.
I am not recieving IMs from "Jordan" who is angry I brought his brothers name and business into this. He claims his brother does not live with him and HerpTavern is his brother's business. But here he is posting as HerpTavern "because his brother has automatic login" he informed me.
Look this is not a "look at this annoying kid" post.
The fact is that he tried to sell me leopard geckos that I had no interest in by using this technique of harassment and deception.

1) You're point is...?
2) It's a simple rule...it really is... what part of "full names are required to post on the BOI" is so hard to understand?

Correction.. "I am not recieving IMs from..." should be "I am now recieving IMs from...."
He is also quite pissed that I am a "tattle tail" and states that there is freedom of speech and therefore I am being immature by mentioning this here. He feels he was not lying because he was indeed trying to sell a leopard gecko.
He has also threatened that he or his cousin "who knows how to do it professionally" would hack me if I continued to post about him.
Well with that bogus threat I'll be writing a letter to his ISP suggesting they monitor his IP for any suspicious activity.
He's simply resorting to vulgarities and name calling at this point, and I really do not feel like revisiting the playground for something as trivial as this.

Thanks for the heads up! This is what the BOI is all about.
I'll make sure to keep an eye out for these little punks and let my customers know as well.

As far as I know, there is only the two bros, Ian and Jordon, twins at that.
Dustin may be another made up name for them.
