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.

Roberto Garcia / Rob Gomez
FYI: An account ( MoreCorns789) recently appeared for a Rob Gomez. He had a classified ad posted for a:
2017 Male Scaleless Texas rat snake
FYI: An account ( hoopstar787) by Roberto Garcia also recently posted a classified ad for a:
2017 Male Scaleless Texas rat snake
When I asked them if they knew each other, both accounts acknowledged knowing one another do to a prior "trade" they had done, but that was all - nothing more.
I would love to hear an explanation why Roberto & Rob's ads match.
Roberto, why is this?

I bought a couple pairs of cornsnakes off of Roberto Garcia and the genetics they were 100% het for proved out on the pair I bred. This upcoming year will be the first breeding for the other pair but I’m confidant they’ll prove as well. Seems like a nice guy to me. I do not know rob Gomez and I’ve never heard of him.

You are correct. No one knows Rob Gomez. That fake account was created by Roberto Garcia.
Nice snakes, maybe? Then why pull a stunt like this?

Is he trying to funnel in potential buyers by steering them with a second account to generate fake competition? Like giving the consumer an illusion of choice, but the money is his either way? I'm probably overlooking something here, but that seems to me like it would just be more of a hassle, rather than actually producing any benefit. Why even bother with something like that? Especially on a website that is so carefully monitored.

If it is this same person that's exactly what he is doing and it's a much better tactic than you'd think. You'd be surprised how many companies out there use this method. Locally we have some intersections that that will have 2 to 3 gas stations on each corner all owned by one person. A lot of major companies do this as well. I also remember someone on sharktank doing this and became extremely wealthy because of it. You are right thought this site isn't the beSt place for this.

I have always had one account.
I dont have any others.
I did do a trade with Rob Gomez, that is not me and not my account.
You asked me for proof of me, I sent it to you.
