• 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....

This is what the BOI has resorted to? A squabble between two individuals, police reports(never shown), alleged threats, no charges. You guys need to get together and settle this on your own instead on the forum because now your names are associated with some childish pissing match (except for the dead beardies-thats just plain cruelty).
I know after reading this that I now have placed two people on my ever growing list of WHO NOT TO DO BUSINESS WITH.

That is why it is safer to type up a post when angry. Read it. By that time you do this you realize the absurdity of it and you hit the delete button.

Good luck and fight the good fight

I have to say Well Said, I came here to meet & learn more...not to be brought into this. It's crazy if you ask me IMO...

I for one am happy when I read posts like this early, instead of having to wait till someone was scammed. Easier to separate the wheat from the chaff this way. Lots of people have made MY "Do Not Buy From Or Sell To" list because of posts like this (and I do not care that they were "in pain" or "angry" BECAUSE, I have learned that the way one conducts themselves when they are in a bad position is usually a TRUE indicator of how they actually conduct themselves in private and shows a lack of emotional self-control.

As Rich has said...those that abuse the "tool" will be shown the door eventually...so actually this is also what the BOI is for!! Yes..you can say that once again the BOI has done its job!:thumbsup:

Couldn't agree more It's best just to stay away from both of these guys.
Especially after all the allegations that he never stated that he did not harm the beardies that is just messed up.
