    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....

It's not a "requirement" rather a suggestion... my point was a new thread regarding the new subject and a reference to this thread would be more efficient (for lack of better ways to put it).

I would respond to Ophis but I just can't seem to find words for someone that can't comment on the BOI without sarcasm in ever post...
 
Gene, you are entitled to that opinion, but Lee (remember Lee? the guy who got scammed by Bill) chose to post the info here.

FYI, I have seen recently where Rich gave warning points to someone for creating a second BOI thread about someone in a short span of time. If you want to know who it was you can PM me. I don't plan to publicize his name here.
 
jesus...... why dont you guys all go create a new forum specifically for bill. lol

had no idea this would go so far. wow......... talk about chummed waters.

im sorry i stopped ready past page 50 or so.... I probably missed why this has gone on so long.... and frankly I dont think I could bring myself to even try to catch up.... hopefully theres good reason it has gone on this long and its not just some primevil pissing match.

anyone care to give me the "cliff notes" after bill admitted guilt? pm or email would be fine... does not need to be a public recap, less clutter the better! :)

It can be interpreted that way, but the last sentence (which was there but you seem to have omitted from your quote) is

Sounds kind of rule-ish to me but it certainly is not one of those "Thou shalt not..." type of rules.

Anyway, you are entitled to believe that it belongs in another thread but others may disagree and come to their opinions as honestly as you come to yours. Frankly, if another thread got started then I have to believe that the waters would be muddier not clearer as people would be posting to both. But heh, that's just my opinion and we've all got them.

Can't help you with page numbers. I get 40 posts per page so I only load the banners once every 40 posts. :p

After he admitted he then spread an e-mail with some garbage about the UPS man having stolen the snake and him (UPS guy) being prosecuted and that he (Bill) would get thesnake back. He refused to back it up with any names (like the prosecuting attorney, etc).

Today Bill posted under his supposed girlfriend's ID (conveniently created on 7/25/2005) but posted as himself --- oops. He had to admit to that one. Her user ID is Angel_Boa or something like that.

Then that same ID, or one very similar was noted to have been bidding on Bill's snakes at Reptile Auction.

Bill currently insists the UPS story is true but none of us want the truth.

I think that sums up almost 800 posts.

Special thanks go to Lee for outing Bill, and to James Wilson and Ben Siegel for their fine photo analysis.

Sorry Gene, but I and I am sure the other mods would have most certainly issued a warning for creating a new thread, deleted the new thread, and told Lee to post it here. The is no sense in having two bloated threads about the same person. BOI threads are meant to be about the person/business, not individual transactions. Keeping it all in one place makes it much easier to see the true nature of an individual/business.
 
thanks for the private messages folks... i think im up to speed....

500 or more posts and I expected SO much more to have happened.

Im disappointed. Where's the damn remote...........

We found out with the help of Lee new bad things that Bill has been doing. Multiple screen names, dual idents on reptibid, shill bidding.....you name it. We need you swinging not singing. Grab a Louisville slugger and hit us a homer.


That's what I get for not reading the last 106 pages I guess.

:toiletcla Bill, what happened to you man?
 
When are you guys going to listen to me. ;) Remember my post from the beginning? Sounds like it was right on the money. One time I wish I had not been right.

Let me add something to this. I am spending all this week putting siding on my home and certainly have plenty of time to think. As I was placing one of the last pieces of insulation up it occurred to me what actually happened here. That piece of siding is still hanging by one nail as I had to come in the house. For those of you that are taking it easier then most on Bill think about how premeditated this was. I know a few of you mentioned that it must have been resting on Bills conscience for him to only ask for a partial refund. I, however, view that as being part and parcel to his overall plan. After all, it raised ZERO suspicions and as Lee just indicated, he said Bill was a great guy for doing this. Really, does anyone here know of a better way to scam someone then to do it in such a manner? I FIRMLY believe that Bill did this specifically so that he could continue to do this again only to someone else. It was only due to Bill's arrogance that he got caught.

When you start adding the above scenario to all of the other facts what do you get:

1) Making Lee look like the bad guy
2) Lying to each and everyone one of us on here
3) Trying to look like the bigger person by refunding the $200 to keep his namesake
4) Lying yet again that he does not have a digital camera
5) Stating that his pride is what was keeping him from taking up Critical Bills and others offer to help him prove his case

ETC ETC ETC. Your get a man who is worst then the nigerian scum who comes on here. Come on guys, enough is enough already. I am not trying to kick someone who is already down. Rather, I don't believe that Bill is down nor do I believe he is the least bit remorseful for what he did. I do believe that he is amused by this as he knows the truth and the truth is not what you and I have been told. This is a classic case of someone who thinks he is smarter then the rest of us and will take advantage of a 21 year old kid who can't make his rent payment. What little respect I had for Bill is out the window and this chapter, at least with me, is done.

Bill bidding on his own animals. I was searching Reptileauction.com and came across some of Bills auctions. Ironic enough two of them have bids on them from Angelboas. A few pages ago he posted with the name Angel_Boas. Well he says it is his girlfriend, but highly unlikely. Anyway, check it out for yourself at the urls below.

A little late but have been gone all day. Great catch Lee.

I never thought that this would get as controversial as it did. Nor did I think it would hit 160 pages with 798 posts. :bluegrab:

Lee change your settings in your User CP to 40 posts per page then it is only 20 pages long.
