    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....

How would you approach this?

yeah I'm fairly happy with it so far. I just started doing this last july, so I missed a whole season of herping with that. It was insanely hot by then so I didn't have many good trips out.

There's still a whole string of VERY common herps that I can't find for the life of me and it's starting to get on my nerves :)

:bawling: don't even go there LOL. I've been a field herper/ life lister (?) for 30 years, and just found my first Rosy Boa, in 2004.
 
You have awesome animals back east. Every time I go out I have a difficult finding too. I am told ringnecks are all over the hills out here, not for me. That is why I need to new places to look. I have found some doing night driving(spotted snake, leaf nose, and shovel nose), most are ran over so that is no fun, but I have yet to find anything during the day,
