    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

You started the new thread because people got off track, correct?  I commented on your choice of starting a new thread as you opened the door and I commented on how the thread became off track because it was another door you opened in the same paragraph.

Because you are getting mad at everyone for losing their focus.  But you do it too.

You get mad at everyone for making comments in threads that do not pertain to them.   But you do it too.

You get mad at everyone for assuming.  But you do it too.

You get mad at everyone for not posting in the right thread and starting new ones.  But you do it too.

It seems Adam you get mad at everyone for doing exactly like you do.

Do as you say and not as you do right?
As I have been saying before...........HYPOCRITE

Good bye for now.  I am sure you have proven to people what a hypocrite you are.  And if they do not think so.....Then they must be reading your posts with blinders on.

And if you think all this negativeness is helping you sell your stuff.  Think Again.


I would like to leave you all now with a sample of Adam's character and the way he treats his customers

Who said anything about being mad?  I haven't been mad about anything at all.  It's all in good fun to me, I mean no harm here, do you?  You may want to seek some help for those anger issues if you're getting mad about this stuff.  I'll go ahead and assume you are as you've assumed I am.

And when I say everybody I mean everybody.  I'm no different, if you can't beat em join em right?  Of course then when you do they have an issue with you doing the same thing you had an issue with them doing.  All the while the issue got lost in the issues that weren't part of either the issue or the issues the person posting had with whoever they posted their issues on.

Do you follow,

Adam,

Man! what a mess you got yourself into. You had to see this coming. I have been reluctant to put in my 2-cents, but I feel my experience with you is relevant to whats bring said in this forum. There are (2) things that I can state as fact about my experience with Adam:

1.  The quality of animal I received from Adam was less than acceptable.

2. Adam is not man of his word!

No need to go into detail, I think that sums it up!

Adam, you seem like a stand up guy in person and over the phone, but your business practices and customer service lack attention to detail and follow through.

My only suggestion Adam, is that in the future if you sell/trade someone a pair of F@#$ed-up snakes and then give your word that you'll do the right thing......... Do the right thing and follow through with what you say in a timely manner!!!!!!

All I can say is that where I come from a persons word means everything!

I don't want to leave on a negative note, so I can say that Adams web building skills are exceptional. He has done a great job on his website and others. So although I would never recommend anyone purchase a snake from Adam, I would recommend him as a web designer.

I wish you luck Adam!

you gotta include details.  You can not just post that stuff without including details or links or pictures or copy and paste of e-mails..  Even if it is being posted against Adam.  Fair is fair.  No I am not bashing you or flaming you.  I just want it to be fair even to him.
 
I was gonna post this somewhere else.  But I am tired of Adam turning every post into a post about him.  I guess he likes the attention.  So he can have it.

Adam, you ARE everything you have complained about.
 
you have admited to being useless, instigating people and generally trying to corupt this board.

Other people have gotten banned for doing the same thing

People here do not post in threads to cause mayhem.  They post in threads to try and help out.  You on the other hand are posting to cause mayhem.
 
Ritchie,

I understand what your saying, but until Adam responds to my post I prefer to leave the details between Adam and I.

I appreciate your concern though!

Jason Kuta
 
that's cool.
give him a chance to do right.
That is totally cool.

anyway I am through arguing.
What am I arguing with someone for?
He has not ripped off anyone yet that we know of.
His ethics are a little lower than most.  But he has not ripped anyone off.....yet.

So I am outy Adam.
Your games now bore me.  Good bye.
 
Hey Richie,
You have to admit one thing.
By Adam saturating all the different threads with his pearls of wisdom and drawing all this traffic, he is unbeknowingly giving all our banner ads more exposure.
What a great job he is doing.
He's doing all the advertisers a favor and didn't even know it.

Jason and I did a trade early this year and he got 1.1 blizzard corns from me.  I was keeping these for future breeders and feeming them 3 mice at a time.  When we worked out the deal the time frame we have for meeting was short and I'd already fed the snakes so I had to transport them stuffed with mice.  Needless to say they regurged their meal and Jason called me the next day with some worry.  I told him to see how things went and to keep the snakes but I would replace the female that was giving him trouble after the babies hatched.

Jason, I think that's about right and I'm happy you posted.  If I missed something feel free to add it and thank you for being big enough to give me a chance to respond.

Not to hand you BS but my computer crashed as many of you know.  I installed 2000 so I won't have these troubles in the future however I lost your email and your number.

I have held some choice animals back just for you and wanted to get in touch with you before I moved them.  These are the last of what I even have.

I don't know where we last left things but I'd been hoping you would email me.  The animals you got were less then perfect and I think you'll recall I told you I didn't want you to stress about them at all and that was why right off the bat I told you I would get you a different one.  Is this all about right?

Well, email me your number again and I'll give you a call when I get back, I have to go nto town for a bit.  We can work something out for meeting after you let me know what you want.

Thanks a million buddy!

Adam Block

PS did they turn out okay in the long run?
 
Let me just say this to you Ritchie.  There are 95% sheep in here and there are 5% sheep dogs.  Like anything in life those 5% control what the masses say.  If I wanted you to start talking about politics I could do it.  First I would get of the topic a little bit and talk about how this won't effect my reputation.  I would say look at people like Bill Clinton and I would go on about him.  Then as a sideline, someplace in there I would say something that let you know how I felt about an issue of his or something I did, maybe about the prolife pro choice issue.  You would then be my sheep and go right to that one staitment and start talking about it.  Next I would talk about more and more and I would turn a topic about how John Smith is a good guy into how Bill Clinton wasn't as good of a president as James Polk (He wasn't by the way).

Do you see where I'm going with that?  I'm a fairly glib person and have never had trouble hearding sheep.  As I've noticed 5% of the people called me, emailed me or laughed about what I was doing and 95% made up 200+ posts about me and did what I wanted.  Proving this board is control by the Dogs and not the Sheep like I said all along.

So while whatever you're saying may be true.  I say it isn't and you keep spending your time trying to prove it is.  In a year people will laugh that 15 adults calling me childish despite the fact that they played the game the way I wanted and allowed me to control what they said and where they posted.

To me, I'm slowing down the number of reptiles I produce and sell them in lots only.  My reputation won't be effected one bit.  So while I am a prick you got to say I was good and calculated cause you all made my point for me.

Adios and enjoy the cleanup cause I'm done,
Adam Block
 
oay vey..roflmao.

gotta lube up the shaver now and get myself all cleaned up!
baaaaaaaaa baaaa baaaaa bye adam..
grrrr..i gotta go ruuuuuf ruuuuuuuuf ruffffffffff up the group now.
 
Adam,

Thats about right, with the exception that the extent of the problem was not restricted to an isolated occurance. Both snakes could not hold down meals for months.  My experience with you was not pleasent. I lost time and money. Not to mention the merchandise I traded for the snakes!

Listen, I'm not here to relive the past.The important thing is it appears that in the end you are willing to make things right!

So, lets talk and work something out that is reasonable for both of us.

Adam.... Man, you REALLY crack me up!! I was LMAO big time! You are either the next Sigmund Freud, or you are the best I've come across lately who really KNOWS how to weave an ENTIRE BASKET of BS!! I honestly don't know which one I'd pick if I had to! I know you're an intelligent guy, you can tell that plain as day when you talk on the phone.... that's what makes your last thread so ironic??? You are KNOWN for "late shipping", yet, THIS ONE TIME.... you stuff your snakes like a serpent eclair.... and then ship them out IMMEDIATELY??? Had you been your "normal" (whatever that is) self.... THIS TIME YOU SHOULD HAVE WAITED!! You are so backwards at times.... lmao
Oh yeah, I almost forgot.... are you my Daaaaaddy?? Maaaaama, maaaaaama.... roflmao!!

So you the 5% of the dogs were directing the 95% of the sheep?

What about the "sheep" that was playing your silly game and making you think you were leading them?  While all along letting you show your hypocricy.

Don't you think people will get some kind of idea when they log on and 10 threads have Your name on it as having just replied.  Then we read each and every single one and realize.....hey gee.  He is not really saying anything important....It looks more like a troll.

But we can play as you say.
Let me start off.
Well since you brought up clinton.
Isn't it funny how the democrats are saying we need more evidence before attacking saddam hussein?
But when the Monica Lewinski thing was going on ...they
were ready to bomb bagdhad out of the maps?

I went to a snake show with my corns this weekend.  I sold some snakes for more money than I had in them (ie: I made a profit).  I guess you could say that I manipulated those people into purchasing those animals, but in reality I was simply providing them an avenue that allowed them to do exactly what they had already intended to do anyway.  No real manipulation on my part.  I just served as a convenient conveyance for their desires to purchase snakes that were already there in their minds before they ever saw my animals.

The same is true for Mr. Block.  He is NOT manipulating me, and I suspect he is not manipulating the vast majority of those posting here or reading this thread.  What he IS doing is serving as a convenient avenue for us to do what we really enjoy doing anyway.  Looking for hypocritical mal-contents, who are a dredge on our herp society.  Mr. Block fits the bill to a tee, and so we respond to his hypocrisy with the typical posts that we have given to others of the same type of person.  This is not Mr. Block manipulating us.  This is Mr. Block providing us with an excellent opportunity to show him for what he is WHILE he thinks he is manipulating us.

One might suspect that Jesse James was the king of manipulation, because he continuously got us posting after him, if we were to follow the same illogic espoused by Mr. Block.  However, we all know Jesse to be king of nothing but the mental midget society.  Why do we ascribe the aura of master manipulator to Mr. Block simply because he takes that title for himself.  I have seen no evidence of this being the case.  What I HAVE seen is evidence of Mr. Block self-destructing in public to a degree that may or may not hurt his hobby/business results in the future.

I don't much care if Mr. Block is hindered in his pursuits in any way.  I really don't hold any personal ill will toward him.  I just find him to be rather sad in his hypocritical little world.  He thinks that he is intelligent enough to manipulate the masses, but it has been my experience in various situations that truly intelligent people don't boast of their intellect.  Neither do they inflate their egos to the point of thinking that they are above "the masses" in any way.  

I am part of a mass of people.  The mass to which I belong is that mass of herpers that take care of their animals, represent them fairly, strive to make a little money to provide for their upkeep, and do not tolerate those who damage our business/hobby/passion with their individual idiosyncrasies (hypocritical ramblings and such like).
