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.

Has anyone seen one of PETA's newest videos? I didn't really want to start this thread but as I watched more and more I was baffled at the disrespect showed to animals in this video! I watched animals being crammed into small cage, cannibalism, malnourishment etc. I know that I am going to get some penalization from the moderators for posting this on her but this is a situation where law enforcement needs to intervene and people need to be aware of the scumbags that run this company!
I really hope that people share their thoughts on this and as for you Reptiles by Mac WE WANT ANSWERS ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, and it's already been debated. Given PETA's legendary ability to take images grossly out of context to promote their distorted views, I am withholding judgement. Also, it appears Reptiles By Mac is understandably seeking legal advice and is currently not able to comment.
Please continue read existing threads and continue the conversation there.
In the future, please use the Search function within the BOI (located in the upper right hand part of the screen) to locate posts on businesses and people to avoid posting redundant topics.
I know that I am going to get some penalization from the moderators for posting this on her but this is a situation where law enforcement needs to intervene and people need to be aware of the scumbags that run this company!
Go ahead and explain. Do you mean for the derogatory name-calling or do you mean for another aspect? Tell me what you know.

Yes, you did. Calling someone a "scumbag" on this site is not appropriate and actively discouraged. Please adjust your manner of posting while here accordingly.
We hope next time you will research a little further and understand the facts before making statements such as these.
We have already refuted each and everyone of PETA's "Allegations". They posed as employees for 15 weeks while staging and filming this 3 minute video that anyone who knows our company, or has toured our facilities knows to be factually inaccurate, flawed and misleading.
We have built a solid reputation for having high quality, healthy animals over the last 30 years and we will continue to work hard to remain one of the most respected reptile breeders in this industry.
Our statements on the PETA allegations can be found here:
Yep, we have. Should have done a search before-hand.

You didn't want to start it, but you did. But yet you want to complain about the mods and this forum in general:

Yep...You probably did because of the disrespectful way you posted this thread and the words/name calling you used (which I removed because it's not permitted.)

They already answered on 2 separate threads that were previously started.

You actually could have realized before you posted a 3rd thread about the same thing.
Since when do any right-minded reptile keepers believe anything that comes from the people at PETA?
You posted a Bad Guy thread, how did RBM wrong you to deserve this title - you personally. Posted this thread without realizing that there are two other threads regarding this exact same matter and if my memory serves me right, one them is posted as an "info", not even Bad Guy.
Do a search next time.
If this video came from anyone other than PETA then maybe I'd take it seriously.
