    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.

    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 AC Reptiles - Anthony Caponetto VERY HARASSING! etc

*TRUE* Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what is for dinner....

Liberty is an armed sheep contesting the vote


..

Not kissing but either. Great quote for this instance. Anthony has cornered the crested gecko market. This is the backlash I have been facing. Anyone who protests his mortality gets slaughtered. I cant believe the overwhelming support I have had on facebook. I guess it has gotten worse since his auction site from what is being said
too many geckos going well below his "msrp" I assume. But after I finish my sleepless night worth of work on my 10 hour day I will sit down with my IT guy and go to town providing screen shot after screen shot until I have posted every screen shot I have had with him. If I can even take one dollar out of his pocket I will be happy but two sleepless nights due to this I promise you I am aiming for much much more
 
Just left for work as the 12 yr old getting ready for school has now answered out 20th call from ad spin. Whatever that is. This has been on going all night. Haven't slept but two hours in two days. Anthony you aren't in China my friend..... This will be handled. I may sound crazy but two days of no sleep will do that to a person. You can block me and then continue to harass me but don't think you have heard the last from me.
 
If there is another John Patrick Moore on here I would be happy to say sure that's me especially since I mapquested it and its pretty close within two hours.

Wow that's your claim. 2 hours away must have been more than one John Moore into reptiles in a town of 1098 people. I am so impressed. OH wait you lived there and unlike you I have proof.

So just for the record, you are straight up denying you don't have another account here?

John that is a quote from Dennis which I think you should read again and answer truthfully this time. It doesn't help your case and casts a whole lot of doubt on anything you say. IMO it takes away any credibility you might of had to state that your aren't the same John Paul Moore of Darksidereptiles. It's also pretty insulting to everyone reading this thread and especially the people that specifically asked you if you were the same person.

Aside from what has already been addressed that you have the same name including middle name and the same birthday which should enough. There are other similarities that don't look good regarding your answer.

To list a few, you both kept the same animals before you downsized. As you stated in the quote below which I've made in bold. You both would vend the White Plains NY show. You both stated the reason for downsizing your collection was due to your son being born. You both made a business of selling knick-knacks on ebay. You both lived in Florida and moved to NY another reason for downsizing the collection. The cowboys are both your favorite football team.

Okay well enough, out of respect I won't post the photo but the John Moore of Darksidereptiles has the exact same photo of a two family members as you do on your facebook account. The photos can be seen at the links below. And in case you delete the photos or the accounts I have already taken screen shots so you should not even bother to delete them.

There is also a photo of you on the darksidereptiles photobucket account.

I'm well know ask gerrick demeyer hell every year he wholesales geckos at discounts highest if bought in the 100s I used to purchase 200 a spring just for white plains show when I didn't have enough to fill a table. There are different circles of reptiles and forums. I can send you mu photobucket account complete with my personal collection and me in most the pics. Obviously you're here to defend ac which is fine I know he has a big following. I'm not gonna argue it. I personally have around 10 reptiles in my collection I sold my breeding stock back on 2007 when my son was born. And all my pics will be dated previous to then. My personal breeding stock of Leos was well over 200 and I worked with beardeds, ball pythons, multiple blue tongue skinks, monitors etc I sold mostly on kingsnake.com sorry I wasn't aware that you knew all collectors and breeders.

There are multiple bad John moores on here good and bad. I lived in Florida too and there's a Moore snakes. I must be him too. But the bad guys are fine on this site so those guys are probably still doing ok. What good is posting screen shots dragon girl I was made the bad guy as soon as Anthony started posting then oddly everyone took his side. I'm not a reptile breeder or dealer anymore so I am just frustrated I was treated in such a way then all of a sudden I get attacked when I even offered to take screen shots of the harassment. I cant figure out how to black out my private info and upload it. I asked for help on how to change attachments to add them and all the "photoshop/paint" experts didn't offer any help. I'll post screen shots of the email but no one wants proof of the profanity and harassment just payment. Can someone help me hide my info and upload it? I know it won't matter though his buddies will say I doctored it knowing nothing about programming myself but I can see where this is going.

John, I was going to help with the screen shots but now I'm more curious about that halfhearted denial of being that John Moore linked in previous post. Particularly since that user and you celebrate your birthdays on the same day. Kind of funny about the middle name too. I don't believe in that many coincidences.

So just for the record, you are straight up denying you don't have another account here?

Ha do you feel better? I have now given you that id twice and I haven't been on fauna in years but still . I could never imagine you being this immature and all I can hope for you is your account has been hacked. You have been doing this for ten years I'm starting to think you must have been 7 when you started. This has been a pathetic display of a business owner,breeder, and person. Talk all the crap you want. I have sent you that transaction twice now. Grow up bud. Enjoy being awesome

Well to top it off you said above you haven't been on Fauna in years but your account was just registered this month.
 
I mapquested it and its pretty close within two hours.

no its 45 minutes. or at least thats what google says it is from your current town to Northville.

Oops more actual Proof.
First is a screenshot of map quest showing the distances between the two towns Mr. Moore Claims on Facebook as current and From. Second is picture of town screen for the Northville, NY Mr. Moore's Facebook page links to. In a town of under 2000 people in 2012 during the last census what are the odds there are two people with the same name and are involved in reptiles.:shrug01:

OP, you're stalling on posting those screen shots. You're also stalling on answering Dennis' question about you having another ID on this forum.

Charles has just pointed out that you ARE connected with DarksideReptiles...So do you want to keep ignoring that, and denying it?

Unless you can give real proof about the things you are saying, then it's a he said/he said, and both of you are people that are going to wind up on everyone's DNBF/DNST list!
 
Just out of curiosity, just who the hell do you think YOU are, Anthony? Someone elevate you to the status of Godhood or something? It is exactly because Dennis is part of the site staff here that he puts so much time (and post count) into this site. It is exactly because he is a part of the helpful staff that he would offer to help someone apparently having trouble navigating a function they want to pursue here. Just who the hell made you "Mister My Word is Never To Be Disputed"?

Yeah, and I have over 8,000 posts here. Actually over 14,000 to date. What of it? Do you think message boards generate their own traction without input and guidance from staff via posts? And do you perhaps suspect that staff here might actually have their own keen personal interest in what transpires on this site? This isn't rocket science, you know, so THINK about it.

And I'll tell you what. If you have a chip on your shoulder about my site here, then get the hell off of it and stay off. It sure as hell is doing just fine without your feeble participation, so don't do me any favors by lowering yourself to post here just to toot your own horn and try to bitch slap my moderators when you feel you need to.

Actually Rich, I'll be completely honest - you and your site are beneath me. Yep, I said it. This place is a scourge on our hobby, it reeks of white-trash Jerry Springer show behavior, and the screwed up part is it's because YOU LIKE IT THIS WAY.

And one more thing rich - The above is why I stopped advertising here. I don't want to be associated with this kind of garbage.

That's OK, though…you can keep begging for money and pretending like you're going to shut the place down, and I'm sure you'll make enough from the people you sucker into making donations to keep this shit show going.
 
Honestly, both parties sound completely nuts & immature in this situation. I wouldn't do business with either of you after seeing this charade.

David Beard - That's not surprising considering you actually look stupid enough to believe John Moore. :)
 
Wow, this thread is very revealing to both parties involved. I wouldn't buy from or sell to either after seeing they are behaving on here.

I'm especially surprised at Anthony Caponnetto; I've seen the beautiful snakes he has, and would have thought better of a long-term business owner.

And one more thing - My problem with Dennis' comments is that he's just encouraging this liar to keep up his lies. That's one reason this website attracts scum like John Moore and Ed Clark - there are people here who actually believe their garbage, humor them and listen to their garbage, even when there is absolutely zero proof.

If you think it's cool or OK that your moderators are here encouraging the scum of the hobby to keep coming around, then I guess that's another reason this site has become what it is.

If you are gullible enough to believe any of this crap, and you hang out here, then please stay away...we don't want your business anyway.
 
And Anthony Caponetto just made very revealing statements about himself and his way of thinking...

I'm thinking he just :shootfoot
 
To insult a moderator who was helping with a procedural issue is poor judgement.
To insult this site knowing how useful it is to many people makes it appear that you are not supportive of the community and the BOI's efforts to expose scammers.
 
Actually Rich, I'll be completely honest - you and your site are beneath me. Yep, I said it. This place is a scourge on our hobby, it reeks of white-trash Jerry Springer show behavior, and the screwed up part is it's because YOU LIKE IT THIS WAY.

:rofl: :rofl:
Beneath you, indeed.... Look up the term "megalomania" when you get a chance. You appear to be a text book example.

Anyway, hit the road, fella. It's optional for you at the moment, so please take advantage of making this YOUR choice instead of mine. Wouldn't want to sully your lily white fingers by having to type messages into my nasty little website, now would we? So begone.

Actually, let me clarify my way of thinking for anyone wondering

I'm the third largest crested gecko breeder on the planet, we have the LARGEST SELECTION OF CRESTED GECKOS ON THE WEB, I have pioneered and named many of the morphs in the hobby today, and I am well-respected in the hobby. And quite frankly, I am above this website and all the BS that is perpetuated on it.

If Rich and Dennis and all the other moderators want to continue to humor scum like Ed Clark and John Moore, then they can have it.

And if Rich really wanted to run the scum out of our hobby, he would quit giving them a place to hang out and feel welcome.

Fair enough, Rich. If your choice is to humor the John Moores and Ed Clarks of the hobby, then this is no place for a reputable breeder like myself to hang out.

I think I'll take Brian Barczyk's stance and just laugh at people and wish them luck when they complain about me here. lol
 
Anthony, you're lashing out at people who just want to confirm that he knows how to post a screenshot. If you're so sure he has nothing to take a screenshot of, why get so defensive?.

That's a valid question and I would like to answer it before I leave this site for good.

I'm not lashing out because I'm defensive. I'm lashing out because this is a waste of time and when people keep talking to this guy like he's NOT full of it, it just encourages him to keep his charade going.

I admit that I do take it personal when I shouldn't sometimes, but this is absolutely not one of those cases. I'm not worried about how I might look because I didn't do anything wrong.

Part of my frustration comes from the fact that I just can't understand why Rich and the mods here would want to encourage guys like John and Ed Clark to hang around…yet they do. And that's why I don't like this place.
