• 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....

Good news to those who had conducted business with Derek Beando. The investigation has come to a fruitful end. Unfortunately, I can't give out many of the details of the investigation or its outcome. I will contact the victims over the next week to make arrangements individually. For all who have or will conduct business via paypal, I would suggest that you become VERY familiar with the limitations of Paypal's protections, look at your funding sources and see if a credit card would be a more appropriate funding source as they may offer protection where Paypal does not. Take time to research the seller, not only onsite, but in ebay, craig's list, and dont forget to "ask the googles". Most people are honest, trustworthy people and want to believe that others are as well. There is that 10% everywhere that leaves a foul taste, however. Thank you all for your input and assistance.
