Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

So whats the reason to even have them if there just subject headers and it really doesnt play a role in what the thread is about?

Seems there is alot of confusion and the person in question gets the wrong label alot? Another reason not to have them IMO.

Im not trying to come off as a  Im just trying to get my point across, please dont take this the wrong way.
Thank You

Kevin you seem to always come on any thread I write on and try to say the same that you have been saying in the boi for a week now. I think that is what the boi section is for not the FaunaClassifieds Feedback Forum... But hey what do I know right? Im sure you will rally the BOI troops to this post now and make it a long, drawn out, 500+ post thread also?
Cant even ask a question without you jumping on me geeze its like your my fauna stalker......

So I'm reading this thread, and I see between the lines that members here are saying "Please give me infractions!". I didn't realize people liked getting them so much....

The problem, as I see it, is making these changes that you suggest would only help the scammers. By having all information both good and bad in a thread, buyers are able to make more "informed" choices/decisions.
If they make stupid decisions with all the wealth of information in front of them, I am not so inclined to help them when they finally do get scammed.

So if you "didn't really expect an answer" then why the hell did you ask it and what was your true motive for doing so?

You make a valid point and it was pretty much exactly what I am saying.... You say "By having all information both good and bad in a thread, buyers are able to make more "informed" choices/decisions." And what I am saying is why have separate threads, why not put them all in one and not have a label on them, just the person in questions name? In simple have all the info both bad and good in one thread.
Is that not the same thing?

When I say "I didnt expect an answer" I was saying it as I am not getting my hopes up, I would like an answer but I dont expect anyone to really give me one.
Thanks

Normally that's what is supposed to be done.
Unfortunately, many of us lack the capacity to read and/or follow directions. Thus if there is a "BG" thread some will follow the instructions and post their interactions in tht thread..but another person may not have read the rules/suggestions and will post another type of thread (GG) and because this person either neglected to read the rules or is delibrately being obtuse the whole process starts over again.
So, it's not the site..it's the people (lord love 'em!)
HOWEVER, once a thread is started in the BOI for legal reasons and except for same, it is rarely moved, deleted or modified in anyway so it all stays there as a testimony to our inablity to FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS or perhaps our inability to research the rules before posting! (yes, I am also guilty). 
end rant. 
PS. You could have simply had ONE BG post with everything in it...even your GG posts would have to be in there. Aren't you glad they didn't get buried that way?
