• 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....

My names Rich, Or Richie. Not Richard lol. I'm 17 and I live in vallejo/American canyon Ca. I've been interested in tarantulas since 06 november where I received a early cmas present, It was a G Rosea. I Was so afraid of it. But I decided to ask for it to get over my fear of arachinds. Few Days After I Had it, I'd Hold Her And Bite My lip. When i Got Over My Fear (wich took about a month ) I held it often. I've Got Around...27 tarantulas. Ive also Got 3 Jack Russel Terriers Oh So Lovable Dogs , And 2 Chinchillas (who i think..dont really like me ). Id Like to Keep Expanding My Collection With About 10-15 More Tarantulas. I guess I'm Sort of an animal/ insect person
