    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....

Disappointed.....Venomoid advertising

Christian, I am impressed. That is a very well thought out comment worth its statement.

Who wrote that and what have you done with reina?

IF you mean all of the above, go on over to TRR and ask some questions there. Ask Gary or Scott by pm at first and let them know you're on the level and want REAL information.

If you're just fooling around they'll thrash you and then give what's left to me.


Wes,

Thank you for the link you sent me. I have signed up and created a post for Gary and Scott to read. http://thereptileroom.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=4277
 
Wes,

I wanted to thank you for directing me to TRR's forums. It has been difficult to communicate with some of the members their, but I have found some if not all by now to be extremely knowledgable on the subject and their help will be essential to answer many of my questions.

As far as my ad on Fauna, I only have it running for this week and then it will be removed. Sorry for all of you that were offended.

Because people are tired of you asking for info and then totally ignoring it.

You want proof of venemoids still delivering a hot bite? Ray and Scott will be able to provide that.

You have been associated with the scum of this industry, and you wonder why you got the reception you did.

None of this matters though because you will still think voids are OK and CRE and Sabatini are alright.

Rich, Looks like you're doomed no matter what you do. You've made your decision and if I were you, I'd ignore any more whining about it. It's a lot less of a headache that way. It's your site to do with as you please.

Yeah....thanks Wes for inviting Christian to infect other sites with his love of reptiles....J/K He is such an inquisitive young man. I am sure he will find all his knowledge and then start a website devoting his time and energy to the butchering of reptiles...Oh, wait he already has......."I just have some questions"...LOL

And thanks Fauna for showing your support of venomoids. Christian couldn't have done it without you!!

You are a joke Christian.......your promotion of venomoids with your lack of knowledge is disgusting. You are a shame to my hobby.....
 
So since we don't want to go down that slippery slope would it be fair to say that the rattle snake round up could advertise here or that guy that was producing the snake stick to kill snakes? I believe he has the right to his opinion and in the appropriate place that is fine but I also believe by the nature of having a site you have to right to decide what advertising you will allow and some in my opinion do not belong here.

Christian I thought we talked about you bringing bud light to an AA meeting. I don't know why you seem so shocked people are disgusted. You know what the majority feeling is and yet you like to flaunt this stuff like a person bringing a six pack to AA meeting. They have the right to but please start using common sense.

brett, grow up and get your facts straight. Better yet, get your panties out of the knots you've gotten them into and TRY to post intelligently. NOT j/k.

Thank you for your opinion. Unfortunately, I'm not surprised that there are some people who feel very strongly about the choice I made to purchase two ads on this website. However, I do not think I broke any TOS. If in the near future Faunaclassifieds.com makes changes to their advertisement TOS, you won't see any more ads for my website.

As far as wearing a Bud Light T-Shirt while attending a AA meeting, perhaps that's a good analogy for my situation, but I don't believe you are required to wear a uniform when attending AA meetings.

OK Wes.....Thanks for your insight once again but I don't wear panties. What's up with you and the undergarment insults lately? I think someone else really needs to grow up. Get a life.
 
Damn people,

This is the exact kind of adolescent BS that Rich keeps harping about. Give it a damn rest.
 
Not to sidetrack this thread there brute, but I believe it was YOU who brought up undies over on TRR.

You post without facts based on what you THINK, and I use that term quite loosely in association with you, and you are in error.

I suppose if you're saying that me sending reina to TRR and some of the best folks around as far as hots and their keeping goes was bad, then I would be all that you ASSume I am.

However, as is usual if my memory serves me rightly, you are in ERROR. He's there to learn the real truth. What he does with it is up to him but he's there to learn. To bad you can't emulate him and learn a little yourself.

Wilomn mutters as he walks away, scraping something brown and soft and smelly off his new white sneaks, "more brawn than brains in that toothpick.... which isn't saying much for a guy that weighs all of 135lbs dripping wet. mutter mutter mutter...."

LOL....Wow! Your creative writing is sure coming along....
 
Wes....curious as to why you would give me positive rep points on a post on this thread then turn around and give me negative rep points with a comment about undergarments again?

Remember the "eat my shorts" comment? I believe you started the talk about undergarments.

Why are you out to get me?

I am one of the "good guys'' and you are here and blasting me and insulting me? I believe in what I am fighting for and I have a right to voice my opinion how I choose. Please stop being a hypocrite and find someone else to pick on.

Thanks.

Now let me explain about reina.

He came here all for voids and cre and some of those vermin associated with them.

He seemed to actually listen to what was told him here and he has since removed cre from his site, or so I was informed as I have not gone there to verify, and is looking for actual factual documentation about voids. ALL about voids, the good, the bad, and the ugly.

I've known how TRR feels about voids since my first joining up with them back in the long ago. I know how both Gary and Scott feel about them. I also know that they either know themselves or know someone themselves that does know, almost everything reina wanted to know.

I suppose I could have sent him somewhere else, to those less qualified and caring than Gary and Scott. I could have easily lead him a merry chase around for information. But no, I sent him where I would go myself because I, just me, thought he seemed to have changed his stance enough to listen to Gary and Scott. WhatEVER was I thinking? Trying to be helpful. I of all people should know the dangers of that.

It would be that way with you brute, if I could have the same confidence in your knowledge and ability to deal with someone who was not exactly on everyones good guy list. Alas, I not only never considered you at all but fear that if I had the results would have been terrible as well as unrewarding. Of course, you may not treat everyone the way you treat me. This is fine and should in NO way be construed as complaining. I'm just sayin'.......

I am terrible with names and didn't realize it was you who also thanked me over on TRR for sending reina there. My mistake.

As far as disagreeing with you, for that particular post I did. Feel free to post my comment or not as I was not at the time I made it aware that it was YOU to whom I responded as I did to. You know?

For clarification: over on TRR brett welcomed my sending reina there with such enthusiasim and such open and welcoming arms that I did offer to allow him the opportunity to eat my shorts.

The offer stands but I have no real thing against you, just some of what you say. Not ALL of what you say, just some of it. Perhaps if you put thought into ALL of your posts and not just SOME of them I would not have had such opportunities as you have presented for me to disagree with you.
 
You know....I understand why you sent him there. I was half way joking thanking you for sending him there...but obviously you didn't think it was funny.

I don't agree with most of the things Christian is doing such as promoting venomoids in anyway while still "researching" the issue. If you have seen some of Christian's reasons for starting his website it might make you change your mind. I don't find fault in anyone trying to learn more about a particular topic....however I do find fault in the manner he is promoting venomoids without having all his "knowledge" in order.

I can kind of understand where Chrisitina's enthusiasm is coming from about voids. It's the same enthusiasm I had when I caught my first rattlesnake and when I first happened to meet Al....but I was 15 at the time.

The original post of mine was to show my dissapointment with him advertising the voids with such enthusiasm and displaying voids in such a positive manner. You can do all the research in the world on why they are bad or good but what it boils down to is....IS IT RIGHT FOR OUR HOBBY? That is my opinion and it is shared by many. Can he disagree and advertise them....sure. This is America and I wouldn't want it any other way. I am just disappointed in the way people have embraced him and feel he is actually doing our hobby a great service.

No hard feelings Wes. I have enjoyed many of your blasting's to creeps on here and have both agreed and disagreed with your ways of thinking. I think you are a good guy and understand what you were doing in sending Christian over to TRR. I will not apologize however for anything I have posted anywhere and I will definitely not be taking you up on your disgusting offer but thanks anyway. :)

How come if I agree and understand your opinion as well as respect anything you could possibly post here, I do not get the same tone of voice? I am not demanding you to respecfully address anything I have to post as a reply. It is your choice to communicate in any shape or form. You are free to yell, screen, laugh, and I am nobody to tell you which way to speak to me, but I was just wondering why the different tone of voice with me? I will still understand you regardless how you choose to speak to me while I may not agree with most of what you have to say.

I just wanted to know about that. That's all.
