    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....

I will add to the this thread starter that no disease of any kind was linked to the snakes I shipped. Someone posted a report of IBD from a buyer and the report date did not match the date I shipped the snake and it was never verified from any snake I shipped. Furthermore, the customer in question emailed me this report on the snakes I sent him just a couple of weeks ago.

Man. Looks like you're really rolling. Super fine Tortoise.
Congrats. Haven't been back to the BOI since we last spoke. Doesn't seem to have slowed you down any.
All snakes from you are doing well.

Sorry, Dan. Its really not about the IBD anymore. Its your behavior that repels me.

Its great that you apparently have healthy animals and are allegedly successful in your business, but someone of your age that likes to get his kicks by coming on here and calling names like some teenage punk just for spite is simply not someone I care to buy from.

You apparently are not sorry for not getting my business. That's fine with me. Likewise, I have no regrets not giving it to you.
 
What spite? And who did I call a name to?

You're a mixed up dude.

I accurately described some morons who stupidly formed negative opinions and made false accusations based on misinformation and misleading statements from their friends who are also boobs. They play that trick on people on many people and try to bully folks to do what they say yet they lack common sense that no one is going to do what some moron suggests. Again - lack of common sense is their downfall. These are the same morons I proved to be wrong on many other threads years ago and they are just seking retaliation for making them look stupid years ago.

Some idiots proved to be idiots over and over, so I called them what they are -an idiot.

Now you enter this threat with a negative attitude and never bought any reptile from me and not ever speaking to me and no nothing about me. Also, you have not done your homework on the background information which led to my calling people idiots despite some common sense should have kicked in to make you ponder why this odd man is going wacko with calling everyone an idiot.

And despite the lack of doing such homework, you are dumb enough to comment as if I would tear at the loss of a sale of a reptile to you. And you want me to be sorry for your not buying a reptile from me? I am not sure if I should lift my leg on that conjecture or send that wacko statement to your local mental health facility with your address attached.

You know what, you're an idiot also.

In the other thread, you specifically referred to me as an idiot, a moron, a boob, wacko, among other things. I can find them and quote them to you if you still disbelieve. Not that really affects me that much; sticks and stones and all that.

I don't want anyone to be sorry for me, because I did nothing to be sorry for. And to be abundantly, I certainly don't want anything from you.
 
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh Dan, you are not doing yourself any favors:) You are acting like Chuck, the guy you hate so much.....

Dan your really asking for it with your attitude towards my friend and other people. I usually like to give people the benefit of the doubt but your attitude towards other people is annoying and makes you look like a child, which i know you are not. And of your thousands of satisfied customers i have seen one of them on here that said you were good. 1!! that is it!!

Also when someone complains you seem to turn around and blame something on them that makes no sense.

So now you may go ahead and call me an idiot and insult me all you want because that is what you seem to do best.
 
Gecko Dude: Do your homework and read the other threads about how those folks posted a report that had nothing to do with a snake I shipped and how they tried for 200 pages to harm my business and attacked my family and friends over nothing and then you might understand. Problem is your bud came here making comments without forethought that I may have reasons to vent some frustration. Months ago when that other thread happened I was still impaired from memory loss as 5 family members and friends and a step father died within a 3 month span and I could not respond smartly or remember much details on anything.
 
For the record, I never stated that I believed the accusations of IBD in Dan's collection. I made several statements giving my opinion of his character/behavior on this forum and that was why I made the statement that I would not buy from him. There was no "homework" or "forethought" required. I could see for myself with every post that he makes the kind of sad, immature individual Dan is, and that was all I needed to make my decision. And that, my friends, is what the B.O.I. is about; people forming their own opinions here based on what is posted.

No accusation of IBD or complaint about misdelivered treefrogs was needed for me to dub Dan Scolaro a "bad guy"; his own teenage mentality accomplished that quite effectively.

Bingo. I think his meds run out every few months, and he can't help but come on here for a marathon session of kindergarten insults and transparent denials.

(Ooh I can't wait for the lame, pre-school comeback. Which will it be? Dig a hole and stick my head in it? I'm hiding behind my computer? :ack2: )

I know, right? Seriously, every post this guy makes, I'm thinking to myself, "Dear Lord, is this guy really 40-something yrs old?" I'd almost swear I'm talking to someone half my age (which is 26, in case anyone cares).

So you understood his joke also.....that in order to maintain something you must first have worked hard at something that's worth something to maintain?

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Can we get this statement printed on a T-shirt that advertises the BOI? Seriously... the marketing aspects are ENDLESS.

The sad thing about this statement is that you do not understand that ALL customer complaints are legitimate, they reflect dissatisfaction with your service or product. If handled correctly they become customer praise, if handled incorrectly they expose the true nature of the seller as being less than honorable.
You Mr. Scolaro seem to be a perfect example of the latter.
 
John, I disagree. Those folks were seeking to be nasty and get more than the agreement they entered when making a purchase. Anyone can complain about anything but unless their was a breach of the terms by the seller, its bogus and your tacky insult without knowing the facts that I extended the guarantee for the customers and they refsued to accept them. As is the case, you voiced a negative opinon without knowing the facts and that makes you an idiot.
