    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....

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone had any dealings with Dale from Freedom Reptiles? I have heard from some people that he is a badguy but Id hate to assume that until I hear from you all. Please let me know what you all think.

-Rob
 
Yes Dale Wade is a badguy who thinks he is god.He shuts down his forum 3 or 4 times every month cuz of the drama.
 
Yes Dale Ward is a badguy who thinks he is god.He shuts down his forum 3 or 4 times every month cuz of the drama.
 
:NoNo: Well if it weren't for trash like you bringing the "DRAMA" he wouldn't feel the need to shut down just to get some peace. :NoNo: Afteryou give him a bunch of crap then you slander him on the BOI. Guys like you and your "buddies" should stay under the rock you were hatched under.

:thumbsup: Dale is definitely one of the good guys in my book. :thumbsup:
 
PistolBob, the point of this thread is to get some full truths out of this and with people like you trying to bash others for their opinions is wrong. Thus far my dealings with Dale has been very negative and I would like to get other opinions. Dale being a owner of a "Reptile" forum and shutting down just because of the "Drama" is rediculous.

-Rob
 
The BOI is a place where people come to look up names in anticipation of perhaps making a business deal. NEITHER side has provided any facts, this thread seems like it was merely a pissing contest from the getgo. While people do make inquiries, this does not sound like a legitimate call for facts prior to making a deal.

If either side has facts to post in order to back up their opinions and provide objective reasons why one should or should not do business with this person, please post them.
 
You caused the F-ing drama. How would you like to have to wade through all kinds of bull#$%$ every day on your forum because of "A" holes like you. You sift through hundreds of e-mails and idiots that regester ten bull $%#t user names in one day. Like I said crawl back under your rock.
 
Sorry I replied too quickly I did not meen to say Reptidude is the bad guy. Jmslayer is.
 
ok lets do this. Dale at Freedom Reptiles decided he was going to "Use" a Non-Profit orginization to gain attention. He made ALOT of promises to financailly support this orginization and after realizing his forums couldnt live up to what he promised he decided to turn his back on a great group of people and ignore them after making them believe he was a "GooD Guy".

Here are a few screen shots of the discussions:

now a few screen shots from the VP of this Society:

Now with that said, of course were not talking about "Business Transactions" but we are talking about a Non-Profit orginization getting screwed because of this person promising to help out this group financially.

Last Fact: Dale has made several "Contests" on his old Freedom Reptiles forums and one day before he closed the forums I was going to win $150.00 for a recruiting contest which was going to go into the SHS funding. Also some other members were going to win reptiles and other supplies but not anymore because he closed the whole thing down. Also the last thing, Dale was holding a raffle to benefit the Sheboygan Herp Society. There was at liest $300.00-$400.00 raised before Dale refunded everyone and closed up shop.

This is not a "pissing" match on my end, its a post to get everyones opinion about Freedom Reptiles and let some truths be known.

Ok first,Jmslayer= doesnt even own any reptiles his parents wont let him,so we are not listing to a little kid here!!!!!
Reptidude=is owner of albinoburmese.com who himself has had some issues with his own forum and money trouble,for animals paid for that are not produced.The BOI is a forum that is here to tell who not to buy from who to buy from.Freedom does not produce or sell any snakes,just a few trades for his personal collection.He did have a contest set up for the herp socitey,but as you said he refunded everyones money also,So if everyone got there money back whats the issue,your feelings got hurt?
Look you told us your problems in the chat one night,we tried to help ya,but yet you still did what you wanted to do.But with your problems I dont think I would come in talking bad about someone else forum when you cant control your own forum from its past problems.
I think this thread is dumb,and it makes no sense.Its still nothing but drama!!!Over a reptile forum!!!!Look take a chill pill and go on.
and worry about your own forum!!!
 
Buddy I hate to inform you I am not Troy AKA Owner of albinoburmese.com and if he owes people money that's not my concern, that's his so please direct that subject to him not me.

If you look on the left hand side it says "Robert Hall" so don't come on here to get me confused with someone else please.

The BOI is not only for who to buy/sell, to/from its about inquiring about a hobbyist/website also. I have placed this here for the simple fact I want to know any other experiences with Dale.

Buddy, as for my feelings got hurt, I think not...its about living up to your standards and doing what you say your going to do. What bothers me is the promise to help out a "NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION" with empty promises!

As for "Me" telling you my problems in chat, once again that was "Troy" AKA "Sanctuary" so please make sure the facts are right.

As for talking bad about someones forums, I did no such thing, I simply pointed out a few things.

Buddy your entitled to your opinion just like anyone else is and it makes perfect sense and its not just over a reptile forum, its based on the promise and the break down of a potential finances to help a "NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION" and drama has nothing to do with it. Now Buddy, with that said can you please respond back with the right information?

-Rob
 
Craig why would you want this topic locked? Makes no sence why you would suggest this. There is far more topics than this to even consider such a thing.

-Rob
 
but i just dont own any snakes and i like leopard geckos thats why i paied alot of $$ for all 6 of them
 
Rob,You told us that you owned albinoburmese that night in chat! You said that the forum was yours!! I understand the issues but bad mouthing people over a forum is just dumb!Its a forum!!!no one lost anything did they? I just think this is getting old with all of the drama all the time!!!!you went else where so did he so whats the point now?like I said you have your forum,he has his and you have outsourced to other forums,so I hope it all works out for everyone.I just wanted you guys to just chill out!!!
Lets not forget its a hobby its supposed to be fun!!!
 
Buddy, I have never been in a chat with you. the only chat I have ever been in is my own and T.B.Exotics flash chat. Now you said that just perfect
Lets not forget its a hobby its supposed to be fun!!!

But with the B.S Freedom has pulled has yanked a bunch of fun out of it. I have never told you once I owned albinoburmese.com I did however tell you I created Albino Burmese Forums because Phil created one of the best Burmese Python Forums ever and I was not willing to let them be destroyed. I also know you believe that because you are on them everyday, which is something I appreciate.

You ask, how does this effect The Sheboygan Herp Society? Harry from Monster Snakes was going to support our Society until he noticed I had a Freedom Banner on my website. Now Harry refuses to support The Society because I stuck with Dale and his support.
