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 fedex station.
I went to our local FedEx center today to ship some cornsnake babies. The guy was really unfriendly and kept asking if we had permission to do it. Me and my dad kept telling him that shipyourreptiles worked with FedEx and we were allowed to do it. He said he would fine us to our address if there was ANY trouble with it. What am I supposed to do? And why on earth was he acting like that? I've never had trouble in the past.

Were you at a FedEx store or a hub? FedEx stores don't accept live animals and the shipyourreptiles waiver does not apply to stores.

They will probably figure it out from the 'harmless reptile' or similar label you have put on the outside of the box.

However, if reptiles are shipped, that is an inadequate label.

If reptiles are shipped, you must have full disclosure on the box. Common name, scientific name, and quantity are required as per the Lacey Act. Chances are you just got a bad representative. If you have the option I would go to another hub. If not, you're doing everything legally. If the guy wants to be a jerk about it, the joke's on him. Just keep your chin high and be the better person, eventually the wind will leave his sails.

David, you must be a paying member to have access to the edit button. You could probably contact the moderator who gave you the infraction and ask if they could make the edit for you.
