    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.

    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....

That's pretty much what I got after only posting one message with links to backup the claims. We seem to have a very different view of spamming.

My post was professional, but I don't believe his responses were.

I even responded with respect here after being told to get lost.

Well, I posted one message on that site but it disappeared shortly after. The Admin stated that someone else posted as well and thought I was the same person. My account is no longer active and they are not interested in having the information posted there or links to it. Such posts will be deleted and the posters banned. The administrator stated he would handle it on his end and doesn't want anyone showing up on his site to post warnings. It's a nice little site.

I can understand his position.

I was going to leave it alone but Now, he is cherry pickin responses from here to present to his members.

Dennis is right. I know i am still banned.
And I can't believe Chrissy says she is going to be doing the investigating for the bluecrayfish.com community. She can't even investigate the smallest thing. She can't even tell if we are still banned or not. And she is a mod for their site. That is the smallest and easiest investigation and she BLEW it.

Is the above what you got?.....It tells me that he did not want to be contacted...... not even if we contacted him first..... here is what I got from BOB at bluecrayfish.com this was after I made two little posts.

I banned you guys because of the multible posts and not contacting me first about this. If you intention was to expose this guy, then you took the wrong aproach. My forum is for crayfish help and related issues.

Had you contacted me first, I would have made a similar post like I did.

Banning you only prevented a bunch more posts like you did already. My forum does not need the bs. We can handle kingcobrakidd. Stop trying to be a hero at my expence.

Yes, I have the ability to see ip's and baN BY IP.
Click to expand...
He has the ability to see IP but he could not figure out that Dennis and I are different people. WOW. sounds like he really knows what he is doing with his site.

He did NOT say stop trying to be a hero at the expense of my community.
he said, stop trying to be a hero at MY Expense

He says we can handle kingcobrakidd.
The above was e-mailed to me April 25, 2008.
The last time he even addressed kingcobrakidd was last month march 16 2008
he asked bruce. "kingcobrakidd, where do you teach?
wow he sure was handling it.
he says I should have contacted him and he would have warned his community. Actually it took him 2 days to post a warning to his community. 2 days after my so called "spam". By the way I posted 2 messages before I was automatically deleted and banned.
And he only posted the warning after several others from taxidermy.net were posting warnings. if it was just dennis and me..... his community would not have known a thing.
he only posted to cover his own arse.
He knew some in his community saw the warnings.
he knew he would be responsible if they were to get scammed. Because he and his mods were ignoring and deleting. So he posted a warning to cover HIS butt.

So what I am saying is, it is not about his community. Everything he has done and said and e-mailed was only about HIM.

In fact I do not think he posted a warning to warn his community.
I think he posted the warning to cover his own arse and to save face.

And Chrissy already said her only focus is to keep bluecrayfish stay friends and stay together. I think that is the reason she was deleting. She was pretending nothing was happening. she was in her make believe world. What can you expect from a minor who is a dress designer for the sims.


anyway enough about them.

how about Bruce? To show he is not a scam artist. he is refunding the raffle tickets out of his own pocket. Basically he wants everyone to believe there really was an organization. the truth is..... the money is in HIS pockets. he says his organization decided it would be better if he left. I have never seen his organization on line. His organization is not even a real organization. his organization is made up of him and his mommy. and his mommy does not even know that she is involved.
 
Actually Bob is just a Crayfish farmer turned Dairy Farm Parlor Hand. I doubt he has much more knowledge on how to run a web site than I do, and that is very little knowledge indeed.
Chrissy is the brains of the operation and the web master I believe.

Sadly they are both more willing to believe that lying scum like Bruce is actually a good guy than all of the evidence that has been presented to the contrary.
At least a few of their members will not get burned by Bruce if he tries to re-establish himself over there.

I doubt that Bruce will have much to do with the Caudata site either.
The one thing that BlueCray, Taxidermy, VenomousReptiles, Aquaboards and Fauna all have in common is a place to buy and sell. Bruce made one post to intro himself on Caudata and faded away. I may have missed it but I did not see a place to buy and sell on that forum.

Now where will he rear his ugly head?
 
Oh, I also look for that site to be turned into one of those that you have to log into before you can veiw the forums.
 
Sounds like the Admin on the crawdad site got a little defensive!! the Taxidermy folks got pretty bent at first but seem to have settled down. Well all but a few anyway that Patrick guy seems to be trying to find anything he can make up to prove Ritchie is up to something sinister LMAO and the guy asking about the shirt, now he seems to go from one side to the other with each post.

It is really sad that here a few people go out of their way to help people they don't know and get treated the way Ritchie and Dennis have on those two sites. Good on you guys you did the right thing even though those folks can't see it.. Randy
 
I deserve it. My posts could have been better.

Dennis did not need to get treated the way he did. He was always proffesional
 
Finally some progress on Taxidermy.net I am hoping that the people here also complained to the proper authorities as well. they are getting him for having a fake raffle for the vets. It would be nice if they also got him for scamming the reptile community. Dealing with animals when he should not have been doing. Impersonating his dead father. etc etc etc. It would be nice if this were the nail in the coffin and finally put bruce away in prison where he belongs.

anyone know the links to where I can research if bruce even has the necessarry permits? I know he takes in the animals. I just need to investigate if bruce is doing all this stuff illegally. Maybe SC DNR can pay him a visit.
 
I forgot to say, that the above quote can be found here

http://www.dnr.sc.gov/regs/pdf/furharvestbrochure.pdf

I know nothing in the taxidermy or the hunting world.
All I know is bruce needs somekind of license.
And my gut instincts tell me all he has is a driver's license.

anyone have any clues what kinds of licenses he needs and where I can look up if he has them

anyone who does taxidermy in any state is required at a minimum to have a taxidermy license with that state. Depending on the type of animals they are working with they may be required to have other permits. If they are doing taxidermy work for someone else (say out state), they would need to have copies of the permits of that person (if the animal was required to have a permit in that person's state).

For example if I was lic. to do taxidermy and I wanted to mount a native endangered species, I would be required to also have a scientific collector permit in addition to a taxidermy lic. showing that I could legally possess a native endangered species as well as legally be able to do the taxidermy work on it.

Now, if I have animals that I want to send out to a taxidermist (say because I was not lic. to do my own taxidermy), I would give the taxidermist a copy of any necessary permits I had showing I could legally possess those animals I wanted mounted. A copy of my permit(s) stays with the each of the animal(s) so that if someone decided to investigate or check up on the taxidermist, they would have proof they were doing mounts for someone who was in legal possession of those animals. I believe (not positive) that the taxidermist must also have their own permits that cover the same animal(s) if the animals also happen to be a native species of their state.

They should call or email their local news agencies.
 
are you all sure that you have to obtain a license to do ANY taxidermy work? that sounds crazy. i live in Oklahoma, so maybe it is different here, but i know plenty of kids around here that do all kinds of small animals like ducks or other small game birds and squirrel. none of them have even a drivers license. i know that this guy is tool, but i don't think that you have to have a license unless you have a business. i just know too many folks around here that are really good and would not even know how to get a license and even if they did they would never get one. no sheriff, police or game warden care about it too, must be that there are people doing real crimes.

Just because those kids are doing it doesn't mean that what they are doing is actually legal. The need for a permit for taxidermy work is not age related so it doesn't matter how old someone is - if they are doing taxidermy work on wildlife they need permits of some kind. One should always check with their local DNR agency to see what is required for their particular state when it comes to wildlife in general (since you might find you need more than just one type of permit). Animals considered to be "domestic" probably don't fall under any regulations and most likely would not require a permit, but you should still check. Some states do require a permit for any kind of taxidermy work you do regardless if the animal is considered wildlife or other.

Birds are another matter since pretty much all birds in the US are protected under the Migratory bird act with a few exceptions. Federal permits are needed to possess any bird species covered by the migratory bird act - even when doing taxidermy work. Federal permits for birds will NOT be issued to someone if they don't first have their state permits in order. You also have to be wary of the lacey act when taking animals from other people to do taxidermy work - you definitely want both parties to have all permits in order in case someone decides to check up on ya.

The links below cover the migratory bird permits for taxidermy and has a little bit of information about other animals.

http://www.fws.gov/permits/faqs/FactSheetTaxidermistFront&Back.pdf
http://www.fws.gov/forms/3-200-8.pdf (permit application)

I know in MY state you can do taxidermy work only for yourself without a lic., but depending on the animal(s) you may have to have other permits to legally possess those animals in the first place.

If you also want to do taxidermy work for someone other than yourself, you would need to apply for a taxidermist permit/lic., pay a $50 fee and take a written test (& pass it) as well as show the state some examples of your taxidermy work before they will issue you a taxidermy lic. Most people i know tend to apprentice under someone already lic. for a while before they try to get their own lic. You have to take the written exam and pass it. If you fail it 3 times in a row, they junk your application and make you wait a full year before you can reapply. Once you have your taxidermist permit, you pay an annual fee to renew it.

If you working with furbearing animals you must also have a fur dealer permit (regardless of where you get the furs from) especially if you cannot prove you got those furs legally from another dealer, etc. That annual lic. costs $50 if you are a resident (i.e. lived in state no less than 6 months), and $100 for a non-resident (i.e. don't live in state or lived in state less than 6 months).
 
wow, thanks. i didn't know any of that at all. kinda weird that you can hunt an animal and eat it, you can save the skin or just throw it away, but if you fix it up to look like it is alive again you need another license. yeah, most of the people i know that do it just do it for themselves. now I'm gonna give them hell everytime i see them. tell them i am gonna turn them in for black market mallards. lol.
 
Hey Bruce,
just in case you are reading this.
I can't say too much. But when IT comes out, you will know what IT is, can you buy me a copy and autograph it for me? I will pay for shipping, your gas money, and fifty cents. :rofl:

Remind me never to be a scammer.
And if I become one, remind me not to scam the people on taxidermy.net .
Those guys are getting tremendous results.
