    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....

Brittany Amey... Save yourself the headache... NEGATIVE

Just to add. She sent me a PM on my forums. Sayuing she was upset that I allowed people to post about her past doings. And that she was leaving my forums for that reason. No one ever broke the TOS of my site. But she wanted special treatment.

This was all over the free ATBs she got

I don't think you missed anything. Andrew cant even follow the simple rule of posting his full name on all posts he makes on the BOI.

Everyone has been sticking up for a guy who don't even give a crap to follow a very simple rule. To me they both suck.

Critical Bill,

I'm sorry to hear you lose respect for an individual as a result of a simple mistake (that I later corrected). Im not here to question the rules of the forum, but Im sure ANYONE that read this thread knows my first and last name. I stated it in the original post.

You've made a premature judgment regarding how I feel about the rules. I do happen to "give a crap".

The only time I contacted Brittany was regarding the offensive posts made by several individuals in this thread. I simply explained that I will continue to speak negatively regarding our transaction, and will never do business with her again, BUT, I apologized for the direction the thread headed.

She responded and said something along the lines of "Don't worry, everyone makes mistakes", I then reverted back to my original tone and explained, she was in the wrong, and I am not looking for her input on the matter.

My stance on working with her remains the same, though I don't see the need for the photos that were posted...etc...

I also would appreciate someone posting a link to this page on there, and my response explaining we have not come to an agreement. Id rather not register on the forums if I don't need to.

You've been a member here since 2006. Dont you think thats more than enough time to find the rules, read them and adhere to them? I think so.

If you want respect show respect. The site has rules for a reason. Follow them and stop making people believe you don't give a crap.
 
Now take a look at how many posts I've made... On top of the low number, how many are on the BOI (not related to this thread)? All that to say, I am VERY new to the forums.

I'm not looking to GAIN respect, but if your respect for me decreases as a result of such a mistake, I've got nothing more to say.

It amazes me that in such a relatively small industry people are so quick to burn bridges.

Andrew Gizinski-"Because I give a crap"
 
Wow...

I just wanted to chime in real quickly that this post is having the proper affect on people. I run one of those smaller name forums mentioned (HerpFamily.com) and Brittany has posted on there quite a bit. Actually, I believe after she began receiving some flack the first time she registered as Brizzy420, she took a short leave of absence and then re-registered with a new name (BrizzysReps).

Our mods had quickly become suspicious of her intentions especially the whole "rescue" part considering how often she was posting her "Everything must go!" threads...on top of that, we even modified our rules to posting in the classifieds so that she'd stop using ONLY our classifieds. We required members to be active on the site in order to post in the classifieds...so in response, she began flooding the forums with pictures of her herps.

Anywho...since seeing this, our mods have discussed it and have decided any new for sale/wanted threads from her will be deleted...and while I rarely EVER ban people on my site, I am discussing the possibility of an all-out ban.

Thanks for posting this and providing us with the proof we'd been looking for that Brittany/Brizzy is a crook.

Andrew...I saw the links back with the pictures of her animals and the snakes you sold her...here's a rough date to go with those pics.

March 4, 2008

Is it possible that yellow ATB pictured in the Photobucket links was your snake or only the browner looking one?

Here are two threads posted on my forums regarding the bright yellow one.

First her typical "New Addition LOL" thread:
http://www.herpfamily.com/showthread.php?t=7148

Followed by her standard ?EVERYTHING MUST GO!!!!!" thread less than a month later:
http://www.herpfamily.com/showthread.php?t=7326

...actually this was posted and removed once before on 3/26/08 due to her abusing our classifieds (this is where we implemented the new rules to limit her posting in our classifieds without taking part in the rest of the forums).

Feel free to post these responses in any other threads about her elsewhere as well!

Hope that helps clear some things up!

GB, it would have been the browner ones, I haven't looked closely, but I sold her two garden phase boas.

Thanks for the insight!

You forgot your full name again dum dum. Whats your excuse now?

You want someone to hold your hand like you're a child and walk you through putting it into your profile so you don't keep forgetting?

SRSLY?! :rolleyes:
 
Yeah, Josh....the full name thing in every post is a big deal around here. (shrugs)....I suggest just putting your full name in your profile information so it will always show up on the left right below your username and then you won't have to worry about forgetting it.

FULL NAMES are required on each posting you make on the BOI. Anyone failing to adhere to this simple rule has subjected their message to possibly being deleted. Anyone using a false name may be subjecting ALL of their messages to possibly being deleted as well has having their account removed from this site upon discovery.

I am going out on a limb and expect a lot of flak from people by providing this forum, so if you are not willing to stand up, state your claim, and put your name on it, then I'm not interested in providing you the space to make anonymous accusations. Such messages will be deleted as deemed appropriate in the individual circumstances surrounding the message.

YOU have to take responsibility and ownership of the words you post here. So take great care in how you craft your statements. Once you submit your message, it will be here PERMANENTLY, no matter what happens afterwards.

Yes. Adding your full name to your displayed profile info is an easy way to ensure that you'd never be in violation of the full name requirement.
 
I can't believe people are arguing over full names and not keeping on topic. Although from the looks of it the main topic is dead and this is the only way to keep it at the top of the page. GEESH!
