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.

Another BAD GUY post for Robert Sloan/Hilliard
Was notified today of a post on facebook where someone is using my picture, trying to sell one of a kind animals that they do not own nor never would be able to own. The animals in question are Albino FL Scarlet Snakes, and Robert Sloan aka Robert Hilliard is trying to scam people into buying Hets and/or Albinos from this project, when I have the ONLY ones known to currently exist. I posted on the page to remove my pic and he became confrontational, telling me to prove its my pic....
It has since come to my attention that he is advertising these animals to set people up in stings for TX fish and game, to lessen his own charges. Just doesnt make sense hes using a pic that is clearly mine, of an animal nobody else has access to.

Thanks for the warning.
However, if you want to avoid infractions here, remove the profanities from your jpg's before you post them.

Yeah Im posting from a phone that has no memory on it as is so I cant really pull that off. I think the profanity helps get the point across of how much of a scum bag this guy really is. We're all adults here and even if theres kids here theres nothing here anyone hasnt heard or read before. If you want to remove those pics feel free.

He seems like a very unpleasant person that I would never want to do business with, and using somebody else's pictures/reputation is definitely scammer behavior. Thanks for posting, hopefully he doesn't rip anybody off.

I understand about posting from your phone. And, no I am not offended by your posts, nor can I remove the screen caps. I'm adult too, lol. Nothing I ain't seen, heard or likely said (in my real life). The profanity does get the point across, but is in violation of the rules here. I was only cautioning you.
Please read the site rules here.

I do appreciate the update on Sloan ... he does have a bad, bad history in the industry and should absolutely be avoided.

Lol its funny I come here to make sure people dont get scammed, and I get an "infraction" for posting screenshots with vulgar language. Yet I see you people rip others apart complaining about they dont include all correspondence. Last time I post on the BOI. Thanks for nothing guys, youre all great, thumbs up.

That is not accurate, Mike. Infractions have messages with them and those messages give a reason. I am confident that the mention of profanity and making the effort to edit the profanity is secondary to the primary issue. A profanity-driven infraction would have come with more points than the one you earned based on what I read of it.

Oh, and as for the last time you post on the BOI thing, that is perfectly fine if that is what you want to do. I think you brought good information to light, but we all have to compose things with a certain amount of tact within the boundaries of the rules.
I would rather you not cease participating, but it is your choice.
