    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....

Inquiry BallBids.com?

Oh I seen it from the beginning. This is how they answer questions. They say you are wrong and are a hater and then they ban you. Or on forums that they don't control they will just change subject. So Mark, let stop avoiding legit questions. Stop with the name calling and insulting people intelligence. Its getting pretty old.

Looks like tonight's auction also froze, according to one of their customers. :shootfoot

No worries - I captured it for you! :D

And again with the same "tired" excuse of another "attack".

Mark, either Marty is incompetent, but by Zack's own admission - it should have sold for much more - so instead - you froze it, and used your scapegoat of your "haters". Aren't you glad you have all these "haters" to blame that allows you to rig your auctions??

That's sure how it's looking these days.

What a total scam!!! LOLOLOLOL!!! Uhhhhhh….."it should have gone for much more"…Oooops, did I just say that? I mean, ummmm….it was an ATTACK!!!! LOLOLOL!!! How come no other auction site has this problem? Your losing customers faster than Romney's losing votes. It won't be long now until Ballbids is closed for good. How can any company possibly stay in business when they blame the low auction prices on attacks nearly every week? Looks like your customers are already asking for their money back. Your programmer is either incompetent or your are scamming people. I vote for both.
 
BallBids...But, But, But it's not our fault...it's the Hackers!!! Curious that BallBids admits " it should have gone higher "! Sorry Mark if your customers are that dense they don't see the correlation between these freezes and the price not going high enough, then you all deserve each other.

What is this the second freeze on the bumblebee? What a joke
 
Mark 5 pages ago you claimed the timer doesn't freeze! You remember right around the time you were claiming the computer experts here didn't know what they were saying. Right before the one let you know she DID know what she was saying so you turned around and called her a liar! I stepped away for a few hours and again my question was buried 5 pages deep! I still want to see proof that Marty is telling the truth about the attacks and all the people here are the ones who don't understand how an attacked site would act.
I will re-ask this question until you give me something other than "Cause we said so" or you are a liar and an idiot. Both of which I told you a long time ago were not acceptable to me as proof of anything.
 
Oh - no - more negative comments from your fans...err....soon to be haters when you ban them. I bet Phil goes first, he's starting to see the light and talking about it a bit too much.

I am still puzzled why ballbids is complaining.

In his own words, all the negativity brings in free advertising and more registered players.

Also it seems these "attacks" only come when an animal is about to get sold at a negative profit margin.

I would be saying thank you if I was them. :shrug01:

Yup - Phil's gone - his comments have been deleted. That's the dirty tactics of BallFIBS.
 
Looks like people are finally realizing what's up. They're gonna be running for the hills! If I were a customer I'd be asking for my money back fast! I can already see it coming…"Ballbids has filed bankruptcy and your money is gone". Mark my words….GET OUT NOW WHILE YOU CAN!

And they have deleted every comment except for 3. Ballbids motto: "If you don't say we are great, your comment will be deleted."

I'm the last person to defend BallFIBS, but the 3 comments are under thei announcement about the attack. The other comments are under the picture of the Bee and except for Phil - are still there. At least at the time of this post.

I am not a computer person at all. But are you telling me here in this public forum that you are a computer person and there is absolutely no possible way that I have viewed server records that show specific IP address pinging so quickly together and continuous that it is simply is not humanly possible and that those situations will not eat up the memory therefore the site will not freeze?

A. You have proof of "alleged" illegal activity and yet chose not to get the police involved because.................................?

OR

B. You have proof that just a little pinging adversly affects your server and yet you continue to put up auctions despite possible negative ramifications to customer service because..............................?
 
Don't know about anyone else but if one of my snakes finds a hole in his enclosure and escapes, I'd fix the hole before I put it back. Same goes for a web site. It's hacked, we fixed it nope hacked again...we fixed it....oh wait there it goes again. C'mon Man!
 
There was 31 comments 5 mins ago, just refreshed page and all the negative oens are gone, and down to 16 comments.

Nothing to hide, but they keep deleting comments from displeased customers. Like I stated before, Wal Mart or any other big store will not delete reviews sent to them or ban you from their store if they get rude customer service. They usually thank them and sometimes reward them with a discount!

My bet is it is manually "frozen".

Crud. You just said something that makes sense and that readers can identify with.
That means Mark will be back to initiate another five pages of him calling everyone names and generally being a horse's behind so that he can bury what you just said.
