• 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....

iffy pancake transaction?

Hello people,
I've been reading this board all day and I can't believe I haven't been here before. ANyway I have been looking for a pancake tortoise, and posted an ad on kingsnake just to see what would happen. Well you bet I got all kinds of flaky responses, but one of them caught me up. It was from someone called Magnum Ogbufu who said he could ship me his CB pancakes legitimatly. SO I bit and asked how much......hold on to your nay nays....$95 +45 shipping. Half up front and half when you receive them and are happy. I already decided this was a scam but when someone referred me here I felt it in the best interest to post this info. He said he had no references too. I wondered if anyone else has had this happen, or is familiar with the name/scam etc. I'm glad my momma didn't raise no fool...........It just sounds too good to be true, so it must be right??

Welcome to the board Rachel!

Most people end up here after they have been burned. I have never heard of Magnum Ogbufu, but it sounds fishy to me. I'm sure that there is someone with lots of references who will read this and help you out!
