    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....

Bill Leverton SCAMMER beware

Bill, if any other wrongs were done in the past, It would be best for you to state them now. Someone could see the new weakness in your credibility and make false comments with false support in order to 'scam' you. I am glad you came forward and wish you luck on cleaning up your act.

What a joke! How about if it were you that this scammer RIPPED OFF! This guy is OUT! Go to Jail. Do not pass go. fold your hand and walk away fro m the table. I can't believe there are actually people who are taking it easy on a flat out admited scammer. Bill, you don't deserve the time of day. I can't even relate to how your mind would work to actually pull a dirty underhanded deal like this. You should be done in this hobby.

Actually I hope you rip off all of your appologysts so that they can feel RAGE when they get flim flammed by you.

I have been ripped off. Lost $330 and a hypo pastel dragon in the deal. I WAS outraged and pissed over the ordeal. Sometimes I still get pissed about it, but I did learn to forgive.

Bill is the one that will have to live with himself and try to make things better. It remains to be seen if he will do that. I would not purchase from Bill because I know what has happened but I don't think I will hold it against him forever. A long time maybe but certainly not forever.
 
What a joke. someone hit my rep points because I was RUDE AND HATEFULL! HE ADMITTED WHAT HE DID! Your damn right I was rude and hatefull. How pathetic.

You know what Joe, write an admin to see who hit your points.

It was not me, but thank you for the negative hit. It is well worth it in my opinion.

You know I couldnt Agree with you One Time is One Time to many and. yes that is why this site is here so I screwed up got busted .so one day maybe I make to your plain of perfectness I could only hope
 
Bill people will say a lot of things and it may or better yet will get rougher, I'm sure it already is.

We all make mistakes, everyone does!! It's now up to you as to how you get through this. You can run and hide or tough it out and show us all that you can again be the person that myself and others here have thought you to be. Sure it will take time and deeds but it can be done.

You've apologized and said you will refund Lee his money that's a good first step of many to come.

Bill, if there is anything I can do for you I will. I don't have much, but I'll run a few ebay auctions and do some weekend yard sales. I'm sure it wont be enough to help you through these hard times, but if we all chip in and do something perhaps we can ease the weight on your shoulders.

We have all been victims of rough times. Some of us have done things we would not ordinarily do during a time of such enormous pressure in our lives. I think you need to open up Bill. Relying and depending on yourself isn't working. Help starts with an open hand.

That aside I liked to kick you right in the crapper and launch you like a football through the uprights for screwing around with God Damn eyes all day comparing photos while scratching a bald spot into my head. I don't like visene and I had to use it twice.

My plain of perfectness???? what a moron...... Dude.....your a flat out scammer.
 
I suppose this is a philosophical question. Is it worse that a so-called "good guy", a respected member of this community pulled a stunt like this, given that we trusted him and many of us were willing to give him the benefit of the doubt this morning when this first broke? Or would it be worse of it was someone like Scumbag Sal or one of his ilk? Honestly I think this is worse.
 
Yeah I believe I got slammed ten times harder for not wanting to refund a deposit. Bill it seems like you have alot of friends on here I bet you could have gotten someone to loan you $375.00. You said you were a person who doesnt like to ask for help, well that is false pride brother. Look where this has gotten you. Maybe the best thing you could learn from this whole situation is never be to proud to ask for help. Im sure your sorry for doing what you did. As well as getting caught but you what learn from it and grow as a person. Then once you have made right of the situation you can consider a learning experience and not a total f88k up. There is a bigger picture than this. If you could ave had some humility you wouldnt have been humiliated. Bill wether the anyone forgets this or not is defiantly not big picture here. Try practicing this in all your affairs. You have caught enough flack you name will suffer so I wont slam you.This was meant to be a helpful not harmful. Good Luck

I don't know if it is necessarily worse, but it certainly hits a lot harder.

Chuck thanks for the offer but I did get myself in the crapper I think it only fitting that I get myself out Yes I do know it a long way back and thats aroad I too must travel alone
 
I give you credit for one thing Bill. You have a more clear picture of the dispicableness of what you did and how you deserve to be delt with than some of your current apologists do.

Now I am hitting you for negative. So everyone can see here is what I posted in his feedback.

"Now I am hitting you. Get over yourself!!! It's fine to have a differing opinion but no need to insult everyone who disagrees with you."
 
You know what concerns me the most though Bill? That you are still here interacting and posting away. If you had any remorse whatsoever you wouldn’t even show your face, at least for a while. For the rest of you guys and gals, the kids are watching. And I don’t mean just the under-aged. Those same kids that every time a problem shows up on their turf they state the BOI is a joke, that there are groups, cliques, etc. etc., that forgive and forget when one of their members breaks the rules. We’re not talking here about posting fake name or derogatory statements we are talking about breaking the law. “A step in the right direction”? Sure…after how many lies and denials even when confronted with the evidence?! This sets a VERY dangerous precedent. I’ve seen all hell break loose with color enhanced pictures, and people ripped apart over illegal shipping. Here we are in front of stealing, deception, and repeated lies, and a slap in the wrist and it’s over??? Today it seems to be “disappointment day”, and in more ways than one…
 
If this were one of the usual suspects, no one would even let him up for AIR! The fact that this is a Fauna regular and supposed BOI Good guy should make this sorry scam WORSE! in the eyes of all of the honest sellers who have worked HARD to become a BOI Good Guy. This action was not only a scam but a spit in the face of all of the REAL BOI good guys and diminished the value of such.
