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.

General BS forum I guess anything is fair game in here. Just watch the subject matter doesn't get carried away too much. |

Now that this post has been moved to the BS section where it belongs.

I stand for those that are unwilling to speak out because of the ever present threat posed by the small-minded.
I am Pez.

Regardless, if it has been called the “dirty dozen” the “clique” or the “wolf pack,” one common factor remains. The statement has always been made by someone that was recently exposed or suspended for one reason or another.
Please point to any recent posts in any of the forums where someone new asking questions was bullied! The fact is this has nothing to do with any newcomer.

I'm sorry, but at the point where the site became a "Pay Site" there was now an obligation to the customers to provide the service that they paid for. For the management to decide that they are simply no longer interested, doesn't cut it.

Almost word for word, I have read this before on another site.

Well, I guess Mr/Mrs nobody needs to feel like a somebody. Sorry, but you chose to be less than a scumbag. Yes, that is what I said. At least a scumbag is a somebody, seems like you have not made it that far yet. JMHO!!

Please indicate what it is in the chart of privileges for paid members ( http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...ad.php?t=64541) that they paid for that those paid members are NOT receiving now.

Actually...I am assuming by "Management" you mean the Moderators. Hhmmm, while I can agree that some are not always around there are ones who are around EVERYDAY and are GREAT Moderators! TripleMoons, John Apple. Isn't HHMoore Moderator of the Python section? If he isn't he fooled me! We have some really awesome Moderators, and no offense but I don't see how your a "protector" of the newbies. Where were you when I got chewed out. lol I think you like to argue. No offense.

How many times had we heard from you that you simply wanted to shut it down? The money was supposed to make it work for everyone.
Then, at some point after all of this money had been collected, you simply decided that you no longer wanted to offer the same product because it was easier for you to simply not do so. Additionally, you slapped every supporter of this board in the face by giving away for free, the very thing that they had paid for.
Nice car, btw...

2 things.
First off, I have NOT given you permission to use my picture.
Remove it NOW.
Second. IF you read the expose' you will see that I orignally thought chris from TSE was a bad guy, then he fooled me. That was LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG before anyone else did.
IF the avatar is NOT removed immediately I would ask any staff member who can to please remove it for me.
It's mine and NO ONE has permission to use it.
It's a damn shame I have handed so many asses to so many people so often. There are simply too many dumbass idiots out there for me to know exactly who you are. Not that it matters particularly, but I am curious just how and when and how many times I've handed you yours.
Other than this time, that is.

Hate to jump in the middle of some one having their ass handed to them, however I would like to say that I am fairly new to fauna and I have never been "attacked" I have posted question and been answered in a pleasent manner. I have even been able to help answer a question or to.
I think this site is great. I am even learning some of the computer abreviations
