    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.

    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 MarinaAlexis Zermeno AKA mazermeno1 of Houston TX

Lucille, you were right and I HAD left this. I apologize to you for this outburst, it is just hard to take this from someone who has NO CLUE and shows it.
 
Guys with lots of testosterone. There's good(heh), and there's bad.;)


I don't know what to tell y'all, except that I think it is better to take up against bad guys than each other.

Again, I agree, and I had left this and was done. That wasn't good enough for Cody.

You know, after reading Lucille's advice, I was ready to let this go. But that is not good enough for you is it. She has been busted. You supported her all the way through. You were sarcastic, and acted like a classic dipstick. If we had listened to you, she would have gotten away with this entire charade. I know you are her friend, you messaged her right away about the thread, No harm there. Now you say you want to wait to see the results? WTF? Please tell all of us what else you need to see. You appear to be the little drama queen here and you have defending a proven pos. Keep it up, I am just warming up. Better go back to whatever it is that you can do well, because you are no good at catching bad guys. I am. I have outed or helped out a number of them in my day. You appear to want to protect them. Please continue to respond. I will be waiting...

omg man you need to just give it up. I need not know her before this thread i sent her a message on facebook when i saw it because the OP had not informed her that he made a boi. and for anyone who wants to check they can add me ass a friend on facebook.com/revolution1221 and look on my profile it will show you the day me and her became friends. You pretend like i am still on her side apperently your dense head can not understand the simplest of things. saying i need more proof when did i say that? you need to fix your attitude and stop acting like a little kid.
 
Im glad you appologized Brandon. It def turns my opinion around a bit that you were willing to and didn't drag this thread out longer than needed. Im a pretty good judge of character and after speaking with her a little I could just see she was pretty upset about the whole situation and was caught off guard. I mean I think everyone here would be upset if they were in the same situation where they were trying to do good by an animal and a buyer and this happens. Patience is really key here just to give benifit of the doubt until all the details have been brought to light. I can see being upset over such a beautiful snake but these red X's on the thread are there forever.

Remember this, Cody? I can't speak for others, but what bothers me is not THAT you defended her but HOW you defended her. I understand that you got played, and I feel for you...I really do. To me, though, you came across here a bit high-and-mighty. The only interaction you and I have ever had (I think), started like this:

how easy would it be to change the content of that e-mail just by posting it here. why not do a screen capture of the actual e-mail.

My first thought was "what are you implying?". My second thought was "who the F are you to question my integrity?" Why didn't you just say, "Could you post a screenshot of the email" as opposed to the route you went? See those little green dots? Not earned by being dishonest.

Like Lucille said, two sides actively debated the subject. In the end (if this is the end), those who defended Marina or attacked/ challenged the other side look a bit silly. There are several folks here who could be saying, "I told you so" in 50-point font, but are exhibiting the maturity and restraint not to do so (on the outside, anyway).

the only reason i said that it would be easy is because i have never spoke with you on here and i do not know your intentions. didn't mean for that post to come across bad i just dont take any copy and pasted text for truth. i think screen shots on here should be mandatory. because honestly it would be way to easy for someone to change the text. and in a case where someone doesn't come to defend themselves or perhaps doesn't read it thuroughly they may not know that information has been changed. I def wasn't trying to come across high and mighty.
 
I pointed out that you had been defending a scammer. You did, remember? I, and others thought it was funny the way you were so insistent. Then she was outed. Did you apologize or back down? No, You implied that all the facts weren't in and you wanted to wait and see what she had to say. Still Waiting? Still pretty funny to me. You lose. But please do not quit now. I am just warming up. I love a battle of wits and this one is going to be easy because you are unarmed!:reddevil:

im sure the op and seller are both loving this diversion from them on this thread.

Ryan, You are correct. We seem to have gotten off course. The bottom line is that the seller was proven to be scum and we should remember that. I am going to quit unless Cody wishes to continue...
 
i dont know or see how anybody can still be defending her or justifying anything positive about her. the receipt is just a horrible fake, and she was called on it and havent heard back a response. i, for one, am very shocked !! haha.

i guess i just dont see a good reason for any further posts on this thread, until at least, the seller or op come back to shed some light on the new developments

now, that being said about the topic, im having a blast reading this as it goes on !!!

dude i never once said all the facts weren't in idk where you are getting this. i admited i was wrong about her but i will not appologize for defending her in the begining. i wouldn't go so far to say i defended a scammer but maybe a liar. she didn't scam anyone out of money or animals. she just lied about why she backed out of a sale.

Son! You haven't been used yet! I am going to ride you like a rented mule! You were wrong and instead of apologizing or quietly leaving the thread, you have called the wrong man out. Lets have at it...

I'm sure a mod will step in, but is this really the place?

No reason to dock infraction points to argue virtually with a kid thats probly 15 years old playing devils advocate on BOI threads.. or is there?
 
This thread makes my head spin.

None of the OP or seller's behavior makes the least bit of sense to me. :shrug01:


Question for the OP- are you still planning on buying the snake at this point??
