    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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....

On the BOI, it is against the rules to post under someone else's account. To do so is to post under a false name, whether intentional or not.

You may wish to read the rules of a message board or community before posting.
 
I never said rude, I said disrespectful. There is a difference. I suggest you write Webslave like he said to before you make any further posts.
 
Ok the shipment went to Nedham MA and the location on here says Charlton MA then there are 3 different names of which there are 2 names being used on here.. Anyone seeing a pattern. Still wondering about the 70.00 that was sent with the snake. Was it cash, check, Money order? That would help to put something in the box if we could prove that was sent too...

ok i understand my name is chris breault so i gotta change that i see. can you guide me through it as i am new.....i used my roomates email to setup after realizing different name i understand your concern. p.s. so please help me fix

How many times do you have to be told?? As soon as you admitted that the name on the account was not yours, I told you how to fix it. I have also told you via PM that you could continue to post until it was fixed, but you would have to sign YOUR name. The Administrator posted an email address for you to use to contact him to straighten this out. It's all right there in front of you, but it is up to you to take the necessary steps.
For the record, the only option open to you now are to email WebSlave at the address he provided...you still won't be able to post until the three days are past, but at least you won't have to worry about THIS problem anymore.
 
Kathy - from the look of the messages/emails, the money was sent in cash...but there is some discrepency on the amount. I've seen both $100 and $70 - Tyler, can you explain what's what?
 
I sent $70 cash. Then i was going to send an additional $60 to him as stated in the messages. He even went as far as to say get back to me asap so we can deal bc someone is interested in the ball pythons. He scammed more than one person the same day. No wonder he wanted to do quick business.
 
To my weary old brain, it seems clear who is scamming who. As previously stated, Tyler certainly doesn't seem to be a complete moron who would initiate multiple emails carefully clarifying the deal and then send an empty box FIRST ... and then actually expect Carpetman Chris to send his snakes. That's just laughable!

Carpetman Chris - if you ever get unbanned - you just ain't the sharpest tool in the shed, are you? Tyler ships the snake, then emails you to ask if you got it ... you email back that you have to "call the wife to check." (that was August 4th, by the way)

The next day (the 5th) you mail Tyler to tell him "shipped to the address you gave me buddy." What about that EMPTY box you got the day before (that you were going to call and ask your wife about)?
Did it escape your memory that quickly? Did you hallucinate the day before and just imagine that there was a snake and $70 bucks in there?
I won't even go into the 3 aliases you use - your uh, "co-workers".


And then this gem: "and those are not my pictures either true pathethic fool." (post #13) - after your email on Aug. 1 "did you get the pics of my last show see the kid holding my yellow anaconda female 6 feet super tame." Since those aren't your photos, you must have just conveniently "borrowed" them for purposes of bolstering a scam, eh?
 
DANG Youngun, I was so hoping he didnt send cash. Well I hope he takes all he has and emails or mails it to the Police station in What ever town this peice of garbage came from. Thanks Laura for laying out the case. Pretty dang cut and dry there. Just breaks my heart when things like this happens. Every day, I learn to love the BOI more and more. Thank You to Webslave and Mr. Moore for Your hard work on this site. It is priceless.
 
As we have all said it doesnt take but a moment to do it all over again. Billy Brier is on here under the name of shabri97 selling blood pythons and 8 other posts. Check it out folks...

That MAY be the real Billy Brier, if there is one. Different IP address, but its also a different ISP....and that account was registered a few days ago - the day before this thread was started, actually. (didn't Chris say Billy was his roommate? I've lost track of his ramblings.) Regardless, same name on the accounts + they're supposed to be partners - I've posted links to this thread in Billy's current ads.
 
Thanks for the updates but geshhh why is it the bad guys always seem to have what I like? :) dang it.... Thats how I found the Shabri97 as well as the connection between Frogy714 and Doubledragon. I bet it can drive You crazy trying to weed the bad guys out.
 
Wow,I was going to trade this guy a retic for a burm,He said his Burm was like 15 feet and only 50 pounds,I was like wow a 15 foot burm should at least be 100 Pounds in my opinion.I was going to trade my 14 foot retic for it....I even talked to the man on the phone. Wow thanks guys for the tip,Jeremy
 
Jeremy, did you trade any emails with him? Photos?
If so, would you post them please? (Not to discredit or question you, but to get all info we can on this scamming snake turd)

How about the area code for his phone # ?

Thanks.
