    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Bad Guy Dan Scolaro....

I just want everyone to know that Dan ACTUALLY refunded my money

I sent him another email where I laid out all the facts in this case and he relented and kindly refunded the purchase price for the skinks....so now I'm just out $45 instead of $170 :shrug01: oh well you can't win em all:thumbsup:

Also I just ordered two croc skinks from Underground Reptiles they are supposed to arrive here next thursday. I set up a vet appointment that same day and I will let everybody know the results

Thanks again to everybody who helped me out with this whole mess

Consider yourself an unexpected and rare exception to the rule.

Maybe Scolaro is mellowing in his old age

It happens, the mellowing. Sometimes a curse, sometimes a blessing - in this case a blessing :)
Good to hear, Brett. You deserved it.
