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.

I put a direct donation button for the BOI at the top of the site. However, if the BOI goes to a contributor member only status, those donations will not give the donator that access.
I have already shut down the BOI theads to being viewable by unregistered guests. They can see the thread titles, but not the content. From projections concerning paid memberships, this will likely be extended to non paid members sometime in the future as the BOI goes to a paid contributor member use ONLY forum.
Sorry guys, but as best I can predict from current indications, that is what the future holds.

It's probably true that we don't get to the rest of the site all that much. Our forum is pretty slow so most people don't come around. I rarely come about but I just saw this thread and paid for my subscription.

No thanks needed really. Just trying to do my part. I wish I could have been a paying contributor before but at least I am one now.

You know I've been here for years and honestly never thought of being a contributing member till I saw this thread ( shame on me ) sorry Rich. I am now and for what this whole site does for us I can't imagine anyone not wanting to help. This has been the BEST site for our reptile world.
Thanks David Pollard

Thank you.
Actually I have heard a few other people comment that they thought that FaunaClassifieds was owned and run by some large business conglomerate or something. Nope. Not that way at all.....

Im so GD'ed confused. Yes, im a brand new member but I was looking forward to staying around for awhile. Did I show up late for the party?
WebSlave owns and runs the ENTIRE site? Yet the issue is the closing of the BOI, which is only one part of the site albeit an extremely important one.
So... if the financial concerns aren't dealt with, all the discussion forums and classified ads will remain but the Board of Inquiry, where dishonest dealers are exposed, will go away?
Sorry for not understanding, i'm not too sharp.

Rich's first post in this thread pretty much explains his position...

I just am not willing to shoulder that burden alone when my income will be limited to pretty much my retirement savings. I expect I can make enough money from this site via advertising and the like to help a little with making ends meet, but that could all be wiped out (and then some) if I should have to hire an attorney to fight a lawsuit filed by someone who gets incensed enough over something someone else has posted HERE about them. Yes, I am protected by federal law against legal liability for third party posts, but that only helps me WIN a court case, it is not a protection against the expenses that will be incurred FIGHTING that lawsuit. I would still need to hire an attorney and go to court, regardless. Which could be very expensive. Definitely more than I would want to have to draw out of my retirement funds
