    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....

Anybody had bad experiences with this guy?

Backed out of orders? Was he rude, a jerk and did he make threats?

Problems with this shipments, policies, etc.?

Any information would be appreciated.
 
Thanks

Thank you Fauna members for sending me your experiences with this guy.

Some of it I already knew from my experience with him. There was some new info that I did not have before that confirms why I will not do business with him. He definitely can be a hot head and in how he conducts himself especially in the communications category.
 
It sounds like

You have been reading the Scolaro handbook for jerks and idiots. Perhaps you should stand down. All these people contacting you by phone and email?
Sure, keep telling yourself that...
 
Retaliatory threads such as this serve no useful purpose other than to waste time and space. If anything, they're more harmful to the OP as they paint a picture of that individual as being nothing more than a petulant child.
 
Retaliatory threads

Retaliatory threads?

Funny, I saw one posted on me, but you didn't have the same opinion? Bias shown. The fix is in.

Jerry and me are talking and we are working on some common ground to resolve our differences. Your posts doesn't help anything at all.
 
One "moderator calls him a petulant child and another "moderator calls him an ass.. I like the professionalism.
They said they were communicating so why can't you mods find something useful to do instead of trying to cause more issues..
Funny people here like to whine about Kingsnake yet I don't see the mods there making useless comments especially when the actual parties are trying to resolve their differences.
I see 2 petulant, childish (u fill in the blank) people..:thumbsup:
 
Bias confirmed

Joel,

Check this out:

"You have received an infraction at FaunaClassifieds.
Reason: Antagonism towards moderators
-------
"The fix is in"? You've got some nerve, hoss.
-------
This infraction is worth 3 point(s) and may result in restricted access until it expires. Serious infractions will never expire."

What the???

I know who i wont be doing business with, and i dont know any of the parties involved!! Nor have i spoken with either at much any length, if at all! Bias? Ill be biased against nonsensical posts such as this!!!

Webster defines retaliatory as "to return like for like ; especially : to get revenge." This thread was posted in response to a remarkably similar thread that was posted about you. Yes, Jerry might have bruised your ego by posting his thread, but creating a second thread going tit for tat to further your little pissing match serves no useful purpose.

The reason that I didn't express the "same opinion" regarding the other thread is that the "same opinion" would be nonsensical. The other thread was not posted as direct retaliation for this one. Rather, this one was posted as direct retaliation for that one. Hence, this one received the observation. I'd love to know how that shows "the fix is in" because, frankly, I don't know you from Jerry.
 
bias

Kevin,

Then you should have called into question Jerry's threat to start if there is no bias. Your earlier comment as pointed out by Joel is why a lot of people are so disgusted with moderators on internet forums.

Your job is to keep things on the up and up. I'm and others are awaiting that type of moderation.

Ths is especially important when Jerry and I have communicated in a positive way today to resolve our differences. The lurkers, entertainment seekers and jump on fire starter types and their posts should be discouranged, deleted and heavily moderated.

When this happens, moderation looks active and unbiased and all are happy with the result.

Yep. And that just earned you another.

You received an infraction for attacking the moderation of this site. One thing that I don't take lihtly is folks ignorantly attacking the moderation of this site. If you've got a problem with the way this site is moderated, you can either post about it in the feedback forum or take it up swth Rich (aka Webslave) directly.

So you just want the sites members, to have no opinion, because it does not best serve you, or another party?

never gonna happen.

As has been stated time and again, Jerry's post was not called into question because it was not retaliatory. Yours was. Had it been the other way around, I'm sure he and I would have been having this same discussion.

Posts and repies don't get deleted from the BOI, save for extreme circumstances. I would highly recommend reading the rules, which are stickied at the top of the BOI for explanations as to how and why this site is operated the way it is.

Anyway, I digress... discussion of the moderation of this site needs to be taken to the feedback forum, which is the appropriate place for such topics. If you'd like to carry on the discussion there (and you're even welcome to call my integrity into question in that forum if you so choose) the link is http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=44
 
opinion v.s. fire starting

Opinion is one thing, but trying to provoke negative responses on a situation is another.

What's the old saying, "If you don't have something good to say, then don't say anything at all" applies very well.

Say something that is fair, constructive and positive or say nothing at all also works well.
 
close

Kevin,

Oh, I note how you are in Jerry's neighborhood as well, Melbourne, FL - nice. Very, very nice. That doesn't appear to well, does it?
