    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....

here we go again . Loosers !

it seems we have people abusing the rep-points system again . some little pukes on here like to ask all of their "friends" to give you negative points simply because they are mad at you . grow up morons !!! :throwup02 i could care less about those points they dont mean a thing anyway . and for those that like to play along with the childs games . grow up , tell the little poser to grow a pair ! have a mind of your own !
 
not sure really . i can see the point of the trader rating . but this rep power thing seems to be abused very often . had a disagreement w/someone today and since my points have dropped well below negative . got at least ten negatives , you are only allowed to send one to someone , so this person must have had quite a few "friends" do the same .
 
Groovy, you are an unknown quantity at this point....LOL.... It is funny how childish some people can be..... That is just rediculous..... Send a message to WebSlave..... I am sure the problem will be taken care of.....
 
Gregg, help us with a little experiment, and give groovygeckos positive rep points real quick. I gave Dan +points a little while ago just around the time he got a ton of anonymous -points. There's no way to legitimately give anonymous points. I want to see if this spamming with negative rep points is deliberate or a programming bug...

never mind, its fixed.

i have not that i know of never given him any point negative nor positive (and you guys know how i feel) i do not hand to many out... but maybe in some sort of laps i gave you negative points but i really dont think so... i can only remember giving one person negative points... but i think its fiskin to be two (not you yet at least)
 
trust me i do not give out many points (seamus got some cuz he gave me some LOL and i gave stina some)... other than that i think thats all... i figure ill just tell you how i feel right off the bat
 
dan i did send some :)

well Robin , you have told me how you feel about me. im just not sure exactly why you would feel the way you do . im not here to fight w/ anyone or crash anyones market , i am not here to compete w/ anyone , and have not claimed to "know it all " . we have discussions here that is all ! for you or anyone to think im arguing any one point is wrong . i question all of those points, even my own . thats how i am . now if you take that as my arguing that what im saying is correct without a reasonable doubt or anything like that , then you are wrong again . aside from little petty arguments or disagreements you seem to have misunderstood me (and so has everyone else ) and now have a terrible perception of me . now im hearing how people are talking about me behind my back etc.
this has just got to stop !
 
Dan, take it from me as someone who has done nothing but try to help you out. You need to take a step back, take a deep breath and think things through before you post. :no_evil01 I hate to see you keep heading in the direction your going.
 
when i write my posts , i write at the time what i am thinking . whether i am writing it as "what if" , what i beleive , or the way i perceive something . i write what looks like a question sometimes . not because i dont know the answer , its because i am just questioning that answer . i think alot about this stuff (probably too much ) so much i can usually convince myself otherwise w/ some of my silly ideas . . im also not great with words , and things sound differently being typed out . ide probably never speak exactly the same way i type .
ya know it just worries me , that others may feel the way you do based on my posts . ide just like to resolve any problems i may have caused with anyone here .
 
take some advice from jeremy. you have allot of thing goings for you but your attitude comes across wrong (LOL and i am one to talk -but comeing from experience). i personally don't talk about you behind your back i will tell anyone the exact same thing as i would say to your face ot what i have not already told you. I have always been very blunt my mother always used to tell me "one of these days your bluntness is going to come across the wrong way, you need to be more patient and have a bit more tact and be polite" well trust me i have gotten MUCH better in the last 8 years or so... trust me
 
Agreed. You acted like a child when a seller chose not to sell to you and to sell to me instead. I went out of my way to help you, even purchased extra specimens to send your way at no additional cost or markup. You acted like a spoiled brat when you did not get your way, and directed your anger and frustration at the wrong person. Since this event I have received numerous emails from your peers speaking of similar events. You're making a name for yourself acting in this manner, and it is not a good one. Thats certain. You would move mountains by simply apologizing and showing a bit of responsibility for your actions. You literally threw a tantrum. This sort of behavior is not logical or mature in any fasion whatsoever. I deeply regret trying to assist you, and you can be certain I never will again. I'm stuck with the extra specimens I acquired but do not mind, we'll find a use for them. Do the right thing, you've only made your situation worse. The general opinion of your peers does not lie. You're simply being stubborn.
 
Contact me next week after they arrive and I'll consider it. I still do not know whats going on with them, I may just pair the extras with the mack. Who knows. Get with me on tuesday or so...
 
chris unfortunately if i knew they would have been going to dan i would not have sold them... if you would like a refunnd since you have a surplus it is no biggie
