    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....

Has anyone done business with Jack Spears

Each of the snakes listed on the GemCity website can be found on the following Flickr page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/thedukesphynx/. It appears the "dukesphynx" is from Italy and owns this website which features some of the same pictures/snakes: http://www.kingsnake.it/kingsnake.html.

Hey Max,

If you look through the thread you see that this person that has the site up is a con artist and has stolen pictures of animals from many people. Look through the threads and you can get an idea of what is going on and what you can do.

Also - where you put your name in your profile - you should go there and put your full name - all posts on here have to have your full name on every post and ifyou add it to your profile (instead of just max) it will take care of that.

Stacey,

Once you have signed up, you cannot change your name on your profile, you would have to contact Webslave to do so. That would be why I suggested to Max a couple of posts back that he should add his full name to his signature line.

Yea, sorry. I just went back and saw your post. That was my fault - I guess I figured you could change it just like other info in your profile.

Ok where I can do this?

Max,

Go to your user cp, click on "edit your details", and add your full name to your signature line, and make sure to check the box that says something like, "show signature on each post".

Or....you can just manually type it in at the end of each post, if you can remember to do so.;)

As for stealing your pictures, I would contact freewebs and report him - they should pull his account.
 
Unless something has changed, adding a signature line is a perq of the Contributor level membership (or higher)...
 
This guy sure is a busy little beaver. I wonder if all this documented activity would qualify him for a charge of running a continuing criminal enterprise or racketeering or something really special.
 
I got this email the other day. I wonder how many people are getting scammed? Does the IP Addy match?

I can't stand seeing this type of thing going on. What I mean is, I am going to begin breeding next year and I would like to be able to actually sell or trade some animals but with all the people like this out there how will anyone know who they can trust?

I really hope they catch up to this guy/guys and bring him to justice just so that people know that there are repercussions for being a complete scumbag!

I will say however, that it does show how taking steps to protect yourself and your collection with simple thing such as watermarking pictures and ensuring you know who your trading or buying from can help save you so much pain in the future. Sorry just my .02 :D

That's the whole point of the BOI and threads like this. You come here to find out who to trust and who is a scammer.
