    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

    Tail dropping and shipping?

    Admittedly this is an issue that came to mind based on a recent BOI thread but I have been wondering more about the abstract. Would people who sell animals that are more prone to tail dropping consider a dropped tail during shipping a health/quality issue of sufficient importance to be...

    Positive "stuff" subforum as a counterpoint?

    I'm honestly not sure how easy it is to create, remove or rearrange forums and subforums using the software here. But how about the polar opposite of the sound off and hell forums? Someplace for those things which are... happy, uplifting, respectable and good... but which don't fall under one...

    Easy to find information is pissing me off

    Easy to find information is pissing me right the hell off. More specifically, the ease with which information can be attained is having side effects that are making me want to strangle someone. Anyone with an internet connection can go out onto a search engine and find a page that will tell...

    Just some links I found hilarious

    This is something I ran across, it's been making it's way through various sites and chain emails, might be something that's been seen before. Just a couple links, hopefully they'll stay live long enough to be seen. A video (audio really)- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCJ3Oz5JVKs And a...

    Moderation... Question. Sorta.

    Sometimes, some issues end up being signifigantly polarizing and involved individuals start to bring it- and their differences- up in places where it's not appropriate. Unrelated threads, unrelated subforums and categories... Should I just keep wailing on the report post button as if it were a...

    Ball Python Forum Sponsers

    Joe Capone and his renamed "Powerhouse Reptiles" is now a forum sponser here? Gievn his history of trying to buy his way into the good graces of the public by throwing money at successful websites... and the attitude and actions he subsequently took in trying to clean his name... Well... Ew...

    Abusive Mishandling, Caution- Graphic Video

    I saw this video when it was linked in the Fauna chatroom. It was created by a registered member, although was not shown to me by them. My understanding is that it was supposed to be somehow... instructional. This thread is not being created on the BOI, so I am leaving my comments as...

    Questions, Concerns, Soapboxing- Mod Program

    Questions- with a few notes for those who may not be aware of the situation I am asking about... then some soapboxing. Any answers that end up forthcoming would be appreciated. The first member who had paid into the contribution system (since the changes that have them acting as moderators) to...

    Children and accountability

    How much of it is on the individual kid, how much on their parents and how much is apparantly on everybody else? There have been a couple threads recently where minors actively participated in what amounts to a flame war. Agressive back and forth with another member or members about the topic...

    Ed Clark- Sketchy Ad

    There is a thread here- http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=99385 where some discussion arose about the validity of some terms Ed was using to describe the animals he was selling. As the discussion there became a little more heated, a little more ongoing and remained...

    Report Post Button?

    Did it... get removed sometime when I wasn't paying attention or am I just blind? If it got removed, is there an alternative method that's supposed to be used for informing the mod team of potential violations?

    Possible problem with a banner ad...

    Noticed today as I am loading some pages, ads for Dove are popping up pretty frequently in the banner rotation below the menu bar. These are flash ads and, at least in my browser, they obscure the drop-down menus that usually appear over the banner ad space with quick-links or the basic text...

    Start Humming "Fanfare for the Common Man"

    ... or possibly Guns N Roses "Welcome to the Jungle" Either way, I need some appropriate re-entrance music.

    Difficult Questions...

    Yeah... difficult questions. Ones which might not be answered. Ones which might be a little insulting even though it's not my intention in asking them... Ones which will probably get people kinda angry at me too but... I think they're worth asking because I think the answers might be important...

    James Church, Bad Guy

    Before I get into it, this post needs a few disclaimers. First, I have never done business with James Church, I merely have evidence of a situation which I feel warrants a bad guy post, garnered from several different message boards but collectively leading to a very negative conclusion...

    Tech question for someone smarter than me...

    Mmmkay so... I pretty much build my own PCs out of parts rather than dropping twice the money for half the power with one of those package deals so I'm not a *complete* idiot when it comes to this sort of thing, but I've hit a situation which I may or may not have the ability and knowledge to go...

    NFL Picks!

    Browser error ate my longer post... Pretty much to sum it up, I've got a few people willing to donate some herp prizes and I'll be adding online gift certificates to the NFL.com shop zone, so making the picks, discussing the game, participating and getting things right is worth the minimal time...

    Inappropriate Forum Postings

    Right now according to the list of rules infractions, posting a message in an inappropriate forum has a warning level of one, but no warning points attached to it... I am of the opinion that this should be changed to include warning points. If I recall the discussion thread where Rich asked...

    NFL almost upon us

    Terms of Sale Anger

    This isn't really a new topic, but the older threads are REALLY old so I figured a rekindled discussion might be worthwhile. I actually just finished reading an old thread on the BOI concerning the interpretation of a seller's guarantee and what kind of responsibility a buyer accepts upon...
