    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.

    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?

Ok, I will apologize to Rich Z. I had him mistaken for Rich K. So I apologize for mixing the two up.

Now I wish I hadn't banned you for three days so you could try to explain yourself.... :shrug01: Oh well.....

Apparently, "Z" and "K" are pretty difficult to tell apart. Great. In 3 days we'll get to see him come here raving about how the whole site is against him, even the owner. More "proof" that posts are edited and people are removed when they disagree with you. :rolleyes:

Interesting... Sorry, but I am just now catching up on this thread.

But seriously, how many OTHER facts may you have gotten mixed up about all this stuff?

Mr. Kerstetter was banned because of accumulated infraction points, the latest of which were for personally derogatory slurs directed at another member. Nothing more, nothing less.

Sorry I did not read the rest of the thread before responding to his claims, though..... :eek: Someone apparently accusing me of breaking the law is certainly going to get my dander up in a hurry.
 
But seriously, how many OTHER facts may you have gotten mixed up about all this stuff?

I think this is a good point. Ballbids staff are making some wild accusations to explain away the continued dysfunction of their auction site. Since some of their accusations have been proven false, it is hard to take them very seriously.

In addition, their total lack of professional demeanor is hurting their reputation as well.
 
@ Robillard. Here is the ENTIRE conversation, NOT EDITED, and ALL can see what EXACTLY was said. I told you Id keep all of it private, but I dont think so NOW.


Wish I could read the tiny print. Even opening the post on a separate tab, it's too small for me to make out anything. :shrug01:
 
I've been in a battle with "doing the right thing" and "keeping a promise" of privacy. Since some of the things stated to me not only have direct bearing on myself but reflect on the community in general, I've decided to, at the risk of breaking my word, do the right thing and post.

I am posting parts of a conversation between myself and Marty Kerstetter, which took place on facebook. I've been pretty vocal about my displeasure with BallBS from the beginning. Because of this, I've been lied about, threatened and badmouthed. I'm a pretty tough cookie so these things don't really bother me, but when they involve other people, I draw a line. They crossed it.

Awhile ago there was an email from Marilyn Kennedy from the KYBOA that was sent to me personally. Since then, BallBids has sworn up and down that it was a FAKE. They have maintained the email was a fake and produced an email of their own stating it was not from their office. I think by now, we all know the story. WELL, apparently, we didn't know everything. Like the fact that Mark, Zack and Marty continue to lie about the email I received being fake. Below is a screenshot from facebook where Marty admits to me that he believes that email is real.
Martyadmistslying.jpg


Here, he admits that he posted links associating Shaun with someone who has a criminal record maliciously and with intent to cause his reputaion harm:
martyhack.jpg


When I asked Marty why he posts things like that, this was his explanation as why he posts lies about people:

When asked about the DDoS attacks on the site, this is what Marty said:

morelies.jpg

martyhack.jpg


yet, in the beginning of our conversation, when asked about those attacks, he said:
DDoSadmit.jpg


Since none of us are being prosecuted, I guess his statements are more than misleading, but outright lies.

As of Today, they are still posting on their page that we are responsible for these attacks. This is simply NOT true and they cannot prove otherwise.

Since Marty only posted tiny unreadable pictures, no doubt to continue his appearance of innocence, I have screenshots of the entire conversation that are actually large enough to read. The entire album, along with other shots of their lies can be seen on my photobucket account

The only fact that was in error in this entire conversation was Marty mistaking Rich Z for Rich K initially, which he apologized for. Other than that, there are No Wild Accusations whatsoever and the facts have been proven that Rich K has in fact emailed Ballbids customers in his attempt to interfere with Ballbids business. And Rich K has conspired with others on this thread to email Ballbids customers and to coordinate a combined effort to do the same. And Rich K has been involved in open documented and totally irresponsible written conversations on the "How To's" to go about attacking Ballbids servers together with giving out basic "command prompts". Combine that with the admittance of another Say No supporter admitting his criminal server attack against Ballbids server and yet another subsequent immediate attack against Ballbids server, you should be able to derive for yourself the anger and concern anyone associated with Ballbids would justifiably have based on the illicit and unethical efforts of members in this thread.
And to Robbillard, I am the one that personally handled the email discussions from the KBOA and subsequently their investigators relating to the Fraudulent Email that you had displayed. And the facts remain that Ballbids was never shut down nor asked to return money..EVER..And Ms Kennedy (Ex Director of KBOA) states in writing that the email you displayed on the Say No Page did not come from her or from anyone in her office. Now since Ballbids Never spoke with KBOA until months after that alleged email was sent to you, it would have been impossible for it to come from KBOA. Now you have been caught cutting and pasting and posting only "portions" of private emails to suit your skewed position here in this thread. The entire email conversation was posted by Marty which again proves your deceitful intentions. My emails between KBOA and I, which you have seen and are currently displayed on http:/wwwmkidesigns.info/sayno.php , are Not cut and pasted and are in their entirety and they are Not Fake! And That Has Been Proven and you know it. It is all there for the world to read.
This Thread is what it is and the people here are what they are, and any reader with any sense can see that; 1) No one here likes Ballbids. 2) Everyone here makes disparaging remarks about Ballbids without ANY proof whatsoever. 3) Many of the people here are the same who post this same merit less lies on other forums and blogs. 4) Some people here openly conspire ways to injure Ballbids and their customers, and conspire ways to interfere with Ballbids business. 5) The Administrators of this thread allow for these malicious and devious behaviors here only because it is "against" Ballbids.com. And that merely proves the lack of character with many of these members and the blatant hateful and deceitful intention of this entire thread. This Thread is a textbook example of how low down and pathetic some people can be and how devious some are from behind their keypad.
Ballbids has now been required to expend more capital to combat these planned attacks against their server. In reality, no small business should have to go to these excessive extremes for internet security. Ballbids is committed to its customers and its quality of business standards so with this new upgrade the scumbags (if the shoe fits wear it) should not be able to bias anymore auctions and those that try will be easier to identify and prosecute.

Every internet based company should go through as many steps as neccessary to combat any kind of internet "attack" that should or could take place, not just Ballbids. You guys are not the "victims" solely. It happens to all kinds of businesses that deal with currency online. You, regardless of this thread or others involved in it, should take all steps neccessary to ensure your customers the complete sound of mind that their excursions and invovlement in your online auction is secure and enjoyable.

.

so because you built yourself a little soapbox to rant and rave from, we are all supposed to believe YOU? :rofl:

Just as you accuse Kim and Shaun of cutting and pasting what suits them, what makes it so that we are supposed to believe you don't? :shrug01:

Mark....a SMART businessman would react to contoversy and accusations with a smile and proof of legitimacy...a kind discussion and offers to show/prove etc. You and your kid and his bff programmer have done nothing of the sort. You huff and puff and stomp your feet like a little 4 year old having a temper tantrum. Every time someone has asked you for proof, you go off on a tangent and 5 pages effectively burying what was asked of you.

Mark, the fact that your 'business model' survived this long is a fluke. With all your 'technical difficulties' ..oops I mean 'not enough money made so lets shut the auction and blame ATTACKERS'...I give you to the end of the year before you have chased all your supporters away and are forced to shut your doors with your tail between your legs. Maybe at that point you will look in the mirror and realize no one did this to you but yourselves.

Obviously you have NOT been following along. The email was admitted to being real straight from your programmer's own words. Since YOU cannot prove otherwise because proof does not exist, YOU continue to babble nothing but lies and false accusations...It's right there for everyone to see.
I posted the ENTIRE conversation so you are talking about...nothing...
Your "company" is being exposed and one by one, your customers are seeing BallBS for what it is...a gambling, get rich quick scheming, misleading and completely unethical farce of a business. Penny auctions are scams and your site is among those in that category.

You have NO PROOF of anything other than BallBS has done nothing but try and pull the wool over the eyes of this community. Since you failed to do that, you've tried to pull in unsuspecting newbies to line your pockets.
I would strongly suggest the removal of posts on your facebook fan page that accuse people from "Say NO to Ballbids" of hacking your site. :yesnod: I'd hate to see you in more trouble than you have already faced. Just a friendly "suggestion" :)

Cleaning out your closet there, mr. liar?

I suppose it never entered any of the minds of your thieving lying relatives and business associates that simply being honest, www.dictionary.com, would have TOTALLY avoided all the crap you've been tracking around for months now.

You've still got some lies about several members here you keep ignoring. You're a liar, a thief, a cheat, why mr. liar, you are the walking definition of a scumbag.

For all the words you written, thousands and thousands of them, let me sum it up for you, a translation, if you will.

begin translation:

I couldn't make it as a cop, so I filed a bogus lawsuit, got a huge settlement, and realized that I had been on the wrong side of the law. My son, little zackeroni, is a chip off the old block, a really good liar, or he will be with a little more practice and a great story teller, when he doesn't loose his cool and start saying REALLY stupid things.

We know we aren't smart enough to actually breed the animals we sell, but I have learned through my rigging the system, being a victim and preying on those weaker than I am, that if you yell loud enough long enough, most people will give you, me, what you desire; cash, trust, respect. I may be wrong about the respect part, but since I have none for myself, and in reality since my son is so reprehensible I honestly have none for him, I am not sure of that. In fact, if you knew me you'd know that behind all this bluster and stupid throwing of words, is a small man terribly afraid of what others think of him, is completely aware that he has raised a rather stupid parasite as a son and am in this auction mess because I simply cannot make an honest living.

You see, we, little zackeroni and marty the martyr and myself, we know that we're lying thieving cheats that are actually a blight on the reptile world in particular and all we come in contact with in general, but we are weak, pretty much spineless, and the effort it would take to be honest upstanding reliable HONOURABLE men, is simply beyond us. We can't do it, we wish we could, we don't want you to know it, so we, mostly me since marty can't control his temper and little zackeroni isn't really smart enough to talk much less write coherently, continually call everyone who disagrees with us, proves us the liars, thieves and cheats we are, what they themselves call us.

It's the best I, we, can do. I'd apologize, but not only do I not have the guts/stones for that, we're in so deep, so covered in crap, that there is no way back. I've sunk our ship with my constant avoidance of anything resembling an honest answer, my lies and accusations and the unfounded, basically more lies, excuses why, out of all the myriads bid sites currently running flawlessly, ours is the ONLY one on the web to have so many attacks in the final few seconds of any auction that does not reach our minimum threshold, er doesn't make enough money for us to see a profit, er, doesn't well, you see, there I go again, ruining another pair of scumbag shoes by standing in my own crap.

End translation.

Obviously you are not following the information. The KBOA email was proven to be fake. This came straight from the alleged creator of the mail who happens to be the Executive Director of the Kentucky Board of Auctioneers. Sorry Robbillard, go cut up and paste together more private emails to promote your lie and skew the real truth. I'm not the only person that can see what you and your friends are about. Looks like Facebook isn't real happy with your Say No page. I don't see anything missing from Ballbids. Trying to run a quality honest business and having people like you lying and cheating to hurt that business has posed to be more complicated than Zack initially anticipated. Who would have thought that people could really be such overtly devious. But it will work itself out and Ballbids will continue to be a good company and grow and people will continue to have fun and get a great morph just like it was designed to do and you will continue to be the liar that you have proven to be the remainder of your entire life. So go cry to someone else about you personal lack of character. I didn't cause you to be that way.

Kimberly, I think Mark the Real Estate Agent has been assigned the shovel in this company since he has no credentials to actually run a biz. He is the one who goes around and buries any substantial posts made that show Ballbids for what it really is.
I think that periodically, we should just repost those relevant posts buried by Ballbids folk, as you did this morning.

Have you actually READ what Marty posted? Marty admits my email is real. It's right there, posted by Marty, read it. :rofl::rofl: Do NOT continue to post otherwise and I am now asking that any posts stating that my email is false be removed immediately. If you don't, it is proof of malicious lies to harm my reputation and THAT would be a mistake. I will only ask you this once. Since Marty was smart enough to remove the email from HIS site already, I suggest you do the same. Thanks!

Lucille, you are right. All Mark, Marty and Zack have been proven to be nothing more than vindictive people whose only recourse is to lie for their own personal gain. It's truly sad that some people continue to do business with these unethical individuals. On a lighter note, many eyes are being opened to the truth and leaving BallBS to wallow in their own filth. :yesnod:
 
It's honestly really sad to watch a business consisting of only 3 people having an issue of "one hand not knowing what the other is doing".

I mean how many times now, from day one, have we had one of them come on here and admit/explain something and then very shortly after have another one of them come on and deny that what the first one said was ever actually said.

Instead we get the whole "You can't read, go read what was said, it's been posted a million times, you're illiterate and have no reading comprehension". And any post someone makes to point out exactly where and what was said by "person A" and claimed to never had been said by "person B" is flat out ignored.

Then again, thus far it's been a perfect tactic for them to come through and bury the relevant information that people have pointed out by contradicting each other with dozens upon dozens of posts.

Unfortunately for them, many of us have been around long enough to have seen this tactic before and see right through the bs.
 
Robillard as much as you like to twist and skew the facts and cut and paste parts of a mail that fit your agenda you really should comprehend what Marty apparently said to you. He never admitted that your email was not faked. And he would have never said that since I was the one involved with all conversations dealing with your fake email and the State of Kentucky. So your lack character and your true illicit intentions are well documented and as I said earlier, you will always be a liar. Here is the picture of your fake email along with Ms. Kennedy's response from her real account and my email to her confirming that it is fake. You can twist, skew, lie, and cheat as much as you have been but the facts stand on their own merits and show you to be a complete liar all because of your blind hatred against a company you dislike.
