    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....

Some people have NO SHAME!

Maybe part of the reason he won't pay us is b/c he can even afford to house his animals properly...or at least clean the tank before you take a picture:

Ken has also sold my cornsnakes...for about $65...highly doubt he's going to pay me for them now.

****ALSO, IF ANYONE PLANS TO ACTUALLY GO SEE HIS FACILITY...GOOD LUCK!!! ACCORDING TO HIS AD IN THE GREENVILE NEWSPAPER IN S.C. THE ONLY WAY TO SEE HIS STORE IS BY APPOINTMENT ONLY!!!**** I guess that's so he has enough time to hide his shady business practices before customers get there.
 
Lucy;

You got some explaining to do!!!!!

Sorry that was a bad impression.

I think harassment should be added to this list....
 
Hmmmm, merging with you, taking your snakes, not paying for them, ending the merger with no notice. Then selling off your snakes. WOW.
ken seems you have some explaining to do!!!!!!!!!
And now a post to back off? Why? Whatcha gonna do?
Come on, get up on this board and dont just read, write your excuses as to how you dead animals come alive and how you feel it is fine to sell snakes that are not yours. Do tell?????
 
hi there ken, I want some of the questions I posted above answered.
Why are you selling animals you have not paid for?
How did you get dead animals to come back alive?
Those snakes you have versus the pics from upstate look very much alike, can you say why?
 
first i will stay in room if we are all nice and we all stay here until this is solved.

i never brought animals to life. we said that "most" of the animlas sent to us were sick and they died and not all died.

how do i owe allsion money besides the devolpment of the website that she now uses without my permission and i own the
domain
 
OK since you owe her for the web design and admit it, are you going to pay up for that?
We will start there.
 
i said in the beginning of this thread. i am willing to pay for her design if she gave me my access and ownership of my domain. she said NO
 
OK, I believe she said that she would give it to you once you paid for it. I believe most people pay for the product then receive it.
Ok according to the thread(s) you both stated that it started off with you buying some of her stock. As I understand the thread, after you both merged, she sent you a second set of her personal stock, did you pay for that as well (not talking about anything from global here yet) oh by the way are you still on friendly terms with global?
 
Weren't the website and the snakes two separate deals?

Doesn't she only owe you the Domaine name and not the website? You have not paid for the website have you?

Have you got proof of the Green Tree Python breeding and if so would you post it?

And, last but not least, if the snakes are not yours, as in you never paid for them, they were not gifts, and there is no paper work to show that they are yours, how is it that you are selling them as your own?

Curious minds want to know. Or I do anyway. Can't wait to see how you try to wiggle your way out of this.

global has never done anything wrong to me and i have not spoken with them in a month,
most people pay for a product once they have agreed to the outcome.
i have only received 4800.00 of the 9200.00 sent from global to them
 
wes i really do not want to talk to you. you are one sided only and your threat level set by this forum is high enough to prove that.
i am not dodging these question and will answer them if someone else wants to know the answers
 
As I do not know much about those types of snakes, but is that biak a biak or a aru?
Did you not agree to the outcome by putting your own input into it?
And what about the second batch of snakes she sent you? Did you pay for them and do you have a receipt for them?
You have been asked for proof plenty of times and said you would provide it but never have come through.
 
look throught the forum the proof is posted. the only shipment she sent me of her perosn stock was a few animals in with the global order
 
Chicken? Come on ken, you can make up something, can't you?

I'm sure there are others who want to see what you'll say too. Or am I hitting a little to close to things you just don't want out in the open? Hmmmm, I bet that's it. An innocent man would have no problems answering no matter who asked. I guess we already know you are guilty of several things. Lying, stealing, sidetracking, whining, and the list goes on.

Come on ken, answer up.

If you look at why I have the warnings you'll see that they were for unnecessary roughness. I have never been rough with you. Reckon I could if you want me to so you know the difference though. Just let me know, always happy to oblige.

Wes Pollock
 
I think these are relevent questions and I would like to see them answered.
