• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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.....

    =====================


    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....

Please note that this forum is ABOUT photography, not FOR photos you want to post, unless those photos illustrate a point you want to make about technique, equipment, or some similar topic. There is a photo gallery attached to this site which you are encouraged to post your photos in, if that is what you are intending to do. You can reach the photo gallery by simply clicking on the orange highlighted link up at the top of each page in the Inside FaunaClassifieds menu bar.

Thank you.
 
You know, I thought about just deleting this. I personally don't care if you post pics here and like I've said before, rules will be loosely enforced. I can always think of a reason to post a pic that fall under Rich's requirements for this forum. So post away!!!! At least it'll be a post lol. If you really want to fall within the "rules" though mention something about the camera/lense/lighting/etc. that was used at the time. Oh and by no means does it have to be reptile related in any way shape or form, unless you want it to be. Just don't post anything illegal that'll get my butt in trouble.

Ooh Sean, get ready to duck and cover, it's going to hit pretty soon!
 
If it gets bad we can deal with it then, for now though everyone seems to be adult and freindly over here so I see no need to cram things down peoples throats and rule with an iron fist.... Personally I'd rather see a bunch of 'hey look at the pretty pics that I just took with my new camera' type of posts than a dead forum. My 2 cents.

I don't think Rich would have a problem with the rules being loosely enforced here in this forum. This forum was dead before Sean came along and sparked a fire under it. If allowing pictures to be posted here created traffic, I say wtg, Sean!!! Your accomplishing exactly what Rich would like to see in his forums. :)

Then again I could be dead wrong.................... :erm:

Really? I could also be dead wrong, I have been before. But I firmly get the impression that Rich takes his standards seriously.
Wasn't there just a big brouhaha over enforcing the rules? I will be quite surprised if this forum is an exception. Surprised and disappointed.

Perhaps there is discussion behind the scenes that I am just not privy to.
