    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....

Bad Guy Chad Johnson - Chadscresteds

Wonder how long it takes to whip up a fake ID online? LOL!

Don't forget that Chad also would have had to give out his facebook password for "Broderick" to be able to link those photos directly from the same facebook account as they all are.

Did someone say something about smelly tuna? :rofl:

not if you're trying to figure out how to get a fake one, or maybe borrow one from the real Broderick VanWyn.


and to B. VanWyn, if you're not actually Chad, and you know he didn't have a good reputation here, why didn't you come to this forum to introduce yourself and explain the situation before posting the animals for sale? add to it the fact that you're posting his old pictures, and all the other fishy stuff.... you're expecting people here to buy your animals, the very least you could do is prove you are who you are before people part with their hard earned cash.

As a matter of fact he did use to live next door to me, thats how we met. And quite frankly im really getting sick and tired of all of you harassing me. Ive explained the stiuation. And the only common factor between me and Chad are that I bought his geckos. You people have NO right to be harassing me for the mistakes some other guy made.

So, you never did take the minute or so that it would have taken to establish a separate identity. But yet you felt free to scold us, above. Not only are you a tuna, you are a brazen tuna.
 
I agree that the ISP address gives it all away. I have no doubt as to who this is.

So what happens when you go to paypal this guy??? Is he going to have been "given" Chad Johnson's paypal account as well? It doesn't seem that his plan of just switching names and starting with a clean slate worked out too well.

Why doesn't the name on the card match the name you have given here, for starters? VanWyn/Van Wij(bad edit)?
 
I put Vanwyn because its how you pronounce my name. Im Dutch so my lastname is very long and confusing so I tend to write Vanwyn just so its easy to pronounce.

I can still see them... if you're talking about the DL pic. I know people are having trouble with photobucket occasionally, so I have attached it.

I'd be more interested in seeing a picture of this guy holding his license. Riiiight up by his face.

That's a tad harder to fake--I still think this license pic was grabbed off the internet ;)

I don't buy this for a second. Chad was never the brightest bulb when it came to scamming people, and it seems that "Broderick" has been taking a lot of pointers.
 
Something tells me Chad is taking on one of his soccer buddy's identities for his new internet persona. Regardless, I will not be buying anything from him any time soon.
 
So "Broderick" is a minor? I wouldn't do business for that reason alone, personally, though that's just my personal policy.

Besides the lack of contractual buyer protections, it raises all sorts of other questions- especially-

If he actually IS who he is claiming, how exactly did he afford to buy all of that stuff from Chad?
 
Know what, if he gets a picture with Jordan, and Jordan will vouch that he really IS someone other than Chad, that MIGHT satisfy me, personally.

Maybe.

It would go a long ways, anyways...

If the date on the ID is to be believed, "Broderick" is 20, not considered a minor in the US.

I am pretty sure that it is in the rules of the BOI that you must post using your proper name though. I don't understand why how it's pronounced would come into question on a forum. People have a hard time pronouncing my last name correctly but I don't type it phonetically... it doesn't even come up on forums.

All of it seems pretty sketchy!
 
You people seriously just dont quit. I do exactly what you say to prove its me and now its still not true like what the hell. You all need to seriously drop your personal grudges that you have with me because I am not Chad. And I worked to get the money? Why is it your business how i earn my money anyways. I bought geckos off of a buddy of mine and all of a sudden I become the bad guy because I want to post them on a website on the internet?!
