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.

Shows & Events Since these are such a big part of our business, it is appropriate that we discuss them from a business perspective.

ronb9560	The Columbus Reptile show was Raided by Fish&wildlife officers I know this is not the right place for this, but I wanted everyone to Know that the Columbus OH show was raided today. Fish&wildlife officers moved in just as they were opening the doors at 9:00. They told the large crowd that they let us in at 12:00. Of course this did not happen. When I left at 12:50 they still would not let anyone in. Now, I do not know all the details but there was atleast 3 arrests and they were handing out $10,000 to $15,000 fines like candy. (According to Vender who was leaving the show). Hopefully no one I know! Either way, you had better watch what you take to a show and that States laws. Good luck all. Ron Bischoff
