• 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....

After they review it you can write something to them explaining why you reported it and why you think it shouldn't be on Facebook. Definitely take the time to write something to them, hopefully they reconsider.

Always do, you never get a response and nothing is ever done. Facebook doesn't care. I reported a photo of three kids hanging by their necks with rope and Facebook did nothing.
 
I know of people who have gotten reported before and their post was deleted and they were locked out of their account for a week. Sometimes they do something, I'm sure not always, but the more people who report it the more likely they are to pay attention.

:exactly:

Tbh it is much easier if they are in a group as you can then report directly to group admins and then action usually occurs pretty swiftly.
But still the more who report the more likely the possibility of action being taken
 
Oh yea of multiple people report the photo etc they are more likely to do something but I've had instances where they do absolutely nothing even if many people report it. Typically they just put a graphic warning over it that you have to click to see it. But if someone reports your profile as a fake they take it down and lock you out till you prove who you are. They way they do things is so backwards but I really hope someone can find out where that person lives/is operating out of and send the humane society in the area or local police. That will be more effective than just reporting posts

It's already been reported to the authorities according to someone who commented on the post I made on Facebook. She said she was able to get all of his info and called someone local to him
 
Not sure if anyone has, but I sent him a link to this thread and posted it on an auction of his, the gecko one, well see if he comes and tries to explain himself

I did that yesterday, all he did was block me, delete the comment with link and never showed here and very much doubt he will.
After all why would a scammer even try to explain away what he is trying to do?
 
Either Facebook or he removed the pics of the illegal turtles, the super skinny Cham and the poor baby leopard gecko with MBD. My guess he removed them because so many people were commenting on them and he got tired of deleting the comments.
 
He is now going by John Bowman.

As far as the under 4 inch law I see it all the time most people sale you the food and give you the turtle or post for science research only. Now by no means is it legal but they get away with it all the time so people call wild life and fisheries so they make new laws to circumvent this and add a lot of new laws. By no means am I siding with this dirtbag, but we need to be careful sometimes we are our on worst enemy.
