    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

Gentlemen, there is no disagreement. There are no mitigating circumstances that I know of.

I have a FEELING that there is more to this than I know. That's it. I NEVER said that an explanation, were one to be given, would make it all better. I've NEVER said it would be OK if there was a good enough reason. I've NEVER said that I disagreed with you about him.

All I've said, consistently, is that I want to know WHY.

Opie, what do you want to agree to disagree on? We both think he is guilty of theft. We both think he lied. We both are STUNNING specimens of the human male.

If you're trying to fault me for your lack of understanding my grassyknoll sililoqui(?) you're yapping up the wrong tree. YOUR understanding or lack thereof of my motivations or thoughts are not relevant. This is about Bill and what he did. I want to know WHY. I still don't.


I'm faulting you for spending so much of you illiteration emphasizing the WHY factor. Unless there was a nigerian scammer holding anelephant gun to Mr Bills head forcing him to do it or he was going to let Sluggo loose on him, I don't GIVE a damn WHY he did it because there is virtually NO justification for his actions, therefore it is virtually irrelevant to me. THAT my friend is where we can agree to disagree.

The bottom line is that this episode has gone a long way toward dropping the credibility of the BOI community to zero. Sure...known scammers are likely scammers, but being a "good guy" doesn't mean as much any more. Lee was lucky, smart, and stuck to his guns. A lot of other people would have gotten ripped off and then been tarred and feathered for raising the issue here.

Bill Leverton pooped in the swimming pool.

Just something to chew on ....

I disagree. The BOI works now as it has in the past.

The fact is he did NOT get away with anything.

Lee stuck to it, PROVED it and once that was done, had the complete backing of all of us.

If you get ripped off by a "good guy" then you too better be prepared to back up your claim.

If you do have that proof, THIS is the proof that there is no double standard.

And I thought I had dannyboy scalerio on ignore.

It's all about YOU?

Not from here.
 
You are using dramatic visualizations to represent what you would not do to him. Let me ask you this then. Why don't you add some weight to youre argument and tell the crowd what you think of Bills morals and ethics and what you think his punishment should be. Save all of that Drawing, Quartering,burning corpses crap cause It just clouds the issue.

What Bill did was wrong. He is a Bad Guy. He deserves the loss of trust. He is being punished, however I should not be the one to determine his punishment, that is on Lee.

Would I ever steal a snake? Could I think of ANY circumstance when I might do it? Yep. I might steal a snake to save its life. DO I think that is what happened here? Not on your life.

My opinion doesn't really matter here though, because I was never likely to do business with Bill unless he suddenly got interested in Colubrids. I just have a tendency to try to find the "good" in people.... it's a pattern of behaviour that is obvious if you read various & sundry of the threads I've participated in.

A line from The Princess Bride:
"Bye bye boys. Have fun storming the castle!"
 
61 pages, 300+ posts, probably 30% of those by one or two posters that feel the need to preach. The horse has been beat beyond death. Bill got caught, he admitted to it, it is here forever for all to see and judge. Is it really necessary for the same posters to continue to tell everyone how bad he is???

I think some of you just need to see yourselves type, to garner attention, to feel superior, I don't know, what is there to gain by continually posting your well documented opinions?

Really, unless you have something new to post, that is relevant to the situation, then find a different source of entertainment, put the soapbox in the garage and save it for the next bad guy that gets outed.....
 
Hey Wes,

I know there is no disagreement with you on his actions. Stupid is not one of the adjectives I think of when I think of you, bro.. Perky, vibrant and dainty..... those are the adjectives I think of......

Anyway, I am sure that there is more to this than any of us know. I do not doubt it for a bit. There always is. I am just saying that it should not matter. At all. In any way. Who cares. Does it matter WHY Charles Manson is a mass murder? I still aint inviting Chucky to dinner.

The only "more to this" that any of us should care about is if this was the only time. Any other "more to this" is completely irrelevant.

Agreed. I would stop reading the thread and save yourself further anguish.
 
Wilomn as I mentioned to your earlier they all showed up for a hanging and thought you were bringing the rope!!
Now that you didn't bring the rope they want to know why not!!

I'm with Chuck,Wilomn,Sasheena ETC, Bill did bad things to the pooch and we all know it and sure wont forget it any time soon. This issue was decided many pages ago he did it!!!! and fessed up when it really went bad.

Some have posted their outrage over and over and over again gee we got it the first time. I know I get it Bills a bad bad guy saying it 20 or 30 times here doesn't change anything. And going after others just because they wont join your lynch mob is really ridiculous. Randy

I would prefer to continue reading to see how much bigger an ass you can show yourself to be.......

Looks like I may have just bought my first warning point, and it was worth it......
 
Hey......uh......Someone left this message while giving me negative rep points:

you need to watch what you say and how you say it, your gonna get in over your head here

Would the author care to ID themselves for me and elaborate or were they just shooting off their mouths?

Sam lol gotta say that to be honest that is the main reason I am still reading it
:raspberry
 
LOL, what a hypocrite you are Ophis. You whine about someone slamming your rep points early in this thread for speaking your mind, then turn around and hit me with some negative points for speaking mine?

I returned the love, enjoy them.

I did, you called Wes a lair and as you know from when I have given you good points (many times as a matter of fact) I sign my name when there is enough room to put -- dragonflyreptiles.

Point out to me WHERE I called Wes a liar.

Except you gave them to me first. if you want to retaliate for negative rep points, sack it up and spend the extra bucks to see who left them for you...

That's not your M.O. though is it? You prefer to go in running your mouth, making assumptions and shpouting you tired preaching long after anything you say has any relevance or worth. In your own way you are almost as pathetic as the scammers.

Randy,

I agree with you. There is one more thing I would like to know before leaving this thread alone. It was brought up a while back in this thread, and no one paid attention to it. Apparently some members have been giving positive reputation points to Bill Leverton. This is going to extremes that are difficult to understand. As far as I can understand some paid members (due to their paid status) have the capacity of viewing those (maybe I'm wrong). I'd be thrilled to know who am I dealing with on this site.
