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.

The Welcome Room & New Member Intros How about a place for new members to come on in, make an introduction, and meet the regulars? Talk about yourself or anything else that comes to mind, just to break the ice. Or just pull up a chair and make yourself at home for a spell. |

Ok.........Deborah you keep saying Shadera posted proof that I was inactive for some time, but she hasn't! Have YOU been to KS and search the ball python archives +magicalmorphs all 1 word??? Look it up and let me know what you come up with. I will lose the name, but as someone else stated names aren't a dime a dozen. When I come up with a new name there will be a transition period. Not because I'm so well known..... because I'm not. But because for the last 5+ years I've been magicalmorphs. What you have to remember is Shadera approached ME in the e-mail she posted. Read it again. Did she write it with "goodwill"?? To me ........it sounds rude. Then.....in this post on page 1 she showed her true colors. I could care less she has a name similar to mine. She's the one making a big deal about it. I never said it was MY business name. This is my hobby, but if you ask my wife she can tell you how passionate I am about it. I sell about 20-25 snakes a year. I sold off 5 female breeders this year to keep myself down to 3 racks. Will this be my business........ no......will I change my name.......yes......will this trash affect my snakes selling.......absolutely not. My snakes sell themselves! Chris

Guess what? It legally IS my business name. (at least one credible person has seen the online version of the licensing I was able to find so far and I'm happy to send the screenshots to anyone else who would like to see as long as you're one of those credible few, should there be any question about whether or not I'm telling the truth.) And I would appreciate it if you'd stop using it to represent yourself or your animals. My username here was actually "MagickalMorphs" up until this year, for whatever that is worth. Went to my real name because I wanted less of the focus on the business, and a lot of people here are doing things that way.
Wouldn't want people thinking I manhandle ovulating snakes to show off for my own ego boost. I actually have a bit more respect for my animals than that. Wouldn't want any other confusion either, like the fact that I'm running legally with the government, while you probably aren't. It's a username/nickname/whatever for you, while I am paying uncle sam under that name - there IS a difference though some are conveniently choosing to not see it. I am a legitimate, LEGAL BUSINESS. You - are not. All my personal opinion of course, since people aren't hesitating to express theirs.
Nothing else is worth responding to, because it's more twisting things around.

Somehow, I find it doubtful. Forum username doesn't trump a legitimate, licensed business name. It's like you said yourself - you'd never heard of him. Where are his BOI threads with so many happy customers? Where are his happy customer threads anywhere, for that matter? (and of course I expect a slew of them to be posted now. LOL)
Anyone can twist words to make a situation look like they want it to look. Saying I claimed I was using it first (didn't), that I must have somehow rigged the link to KS' post system (I obviously didn't), etc are all grasping at straws. I haven't responded because none of it is true. I'm glad this is public, because it shows how willing he is to negotiate (see how he took Lucille's suggestion to add that in a signature line?), and how he will react to negotiate an unfavorable situation. Anyone who has followed me for long, knows that I don't much care if people don't "get" me. My stuff sells just fine.
Let's do this, then. If Chris can come up with a scan of his legitimate business license, dated before I started gaining online rep here, I'll hand over the name and all claim to it. Not the sites though unless he's footing the hundreds I have in the hosting, etc, but the name at least. I am actively hunting for my own copies of mine from years past to post, but with a cross country move and all my stuff still in boxes the task is a bit daunting.
That's it for me until something legitimate is posted by the other party. Or until I find my own documents to post.

LOL, dang Shadera, listen to yourself! How about YOU post a screenshot here proving YOU have a legitimate business license? First it was because you were using the name first (not true), then you insinuate that he won't change his username because he now wants the benefit of your reputation (not true), then you say, well, he is only one ONE forum, not several like you are (again, not true) and then make some threat of a lawsuit (utterly ridiculous), then it was, "well, he wasn't active for a long time anywhere after those kingsnake posts (again, not true) and oh, and now btw he's now just "riding your coattails" !

Chris, that is more than I would do were I approached in the manner you have been. If I still worked with ball pythons I would do business with you in a heartbeat. Shadera...

I think there is only one person twisting things around here. I think most people would agree with me too.
