• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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.....

    =====================


    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....

Were they interested at all in seeing this thread?
 
I just saw the ad. I was about to say this Guy got a set of pool balls on him to repost same lot of turtles but I see Dennis put it up. Thanks Dennis. Atleast this will warn people bout his antics.
 
Still no refund, filed complaints with both the cops and USPS inspector..keep getting told that they'll get to him. In the meantime He's found another place to sell his stuff..facebook. I'd like to make a note that a lot of BOI members are friends with him on FB..maybe we can get a few people to post on his page just like I did. Who knows who else this guy has burned.

I'm floored that this remains the truth after all this time.. That is a low life move right there Chad, fwiw. Sorry to those that lost out, I hope karma rolls around for this action....
 
Ok, just curious if I am missing something... If he had his house broken into, and all his reptiles stolen, how is he still posting pictures of them on his facebook? Some people...
