    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....

Watch out for this guy. If he posts on your ad dont try and PM him he will just post the PM on your ad and keep spamming your ad then eventually jsut post a BOI thread on you and KEEP bashing you for no reason calling you a liar and this and that and He will keep going and going and going until he has run your name into the ground all cause he is having a bad day or "his child is sick" or whatever other reason. he does it for no reason and just does it to see people with decent names trying to enjoy the hobby have a tough time selling their snakes. and dont try to contact him directly and have a talk man to man he hides behind the BOI and spamming. he will not contact you to have a real talk he will only fight with you on the BOI. to that i say grow up guy. be an adult. hope nobody ever has to do any business with this guy. have a nice day.
 
Oh I think it's perfectly clear who to avoid doing business with. Thanks for making that simple.
 
Yes Judy I agree. A negative BOI post for this makes you sound five years old and petty. Plus the exchange in the other thread was none too flattering.

You reputation would be better served to take the high road and turn the other cheek, not step down to the same petty ball pit.
 
I tried but Ritchie Luna decided he wouldnt stop. i apologized for anything i had done yet he kept going. i felt i had nothing else to do

I agree with this 100%. This is very immature and makes you look bad.
 
Wait a minute here, have you done business with Ritchie? :shrug01: No I didn't think so.

Ritchie Luna has been around for a long time, he has nice critters and is a good guy in my book.

Way to waste band width :thumbsup:
 
has he done busiess with me? no did he post about me? yes... so now who is wasting band width?
 
He posted an Inquiry - something that is typically done prior to dealing with somebody.
You posted a Bad Guy thread - that is seen as a fairly serious matter by many of us; regardless of how we might feel about the content of the other thread. Frankly, ou would have been better off letting it die, like you kept saying.

The BOI is a business transaction/information forum. If people could run here and post every time they had a non transaction personal issue, it would be named FaceBook, not BOI.

Ritchie does tend to ferret out what he is looking for. Here, that is an excellent quality.
 
im sorry. i tried to explain myself to him and he kept on. then it got to the point where i feel that he is harassing me and i am tired of it. if he keeps on i will be forced to take things further again by way of legal action against him. do i want to do that? no but i will if it means protecting my name because at the end of the day thats all that matters

People are permitted to have personal opinions about other people. In the BOI, when posters start talking about legal action because someone else has a poor opinion of them, many times it means they are trying to puff themselves up and look like they are bad dudes. It doesn't work, BOI readers can see right through that bs.

Uh oh! You're going to lawyer up!! :rofl:
 
no that is not my intention at all i have respectfully asked him to stop posting about me as the issue ias been talked about and in my opinion is over and he is still harassing me. all i want is him to stop
 
Starting a bad guy thread is not going to stop it, in fact it is going to do the exact opposite.

You would have been better off bowing out gracefully, letting the few more posts be made, then watching it die.

Ritchie has nine posts (so far) in that other thread. You have eighteen.

In this thread, Ritchie has ZERO posts. And you have five, as of the moment I am typing this. I have no doubt there will be a LOT more posts from you in just a short matter of time.

WHO is harassing who? Who won't let it stop?

I call it LWS. Last Word Syndrome. It's a little understood disease with symptoms ranging from making one look childish to putting one's reputation in serious jeopardy. You might want to get that looked at.
 
WAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH....Ritchie doesn't like me.

WAAAAaAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH....so now I don't like him too.

WAAAAaAAAAAhHHHHHHHHHHHH...:rofl:
 
This is insane...this thread is really immature, as everyone else has said. I do think Ritchie could have been more polite in the situation- maybe just not reply after being told he could not get a public picture...rather than post PMs pubicly. HOWEVER, I think that both Ritchie Lune and Zachery Curtis handled the issue poorly, and you are both on my do-not-buy-from-or-sell-to list because of your petty bickering back and forth. Both of you need to grow up.
