    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....

Yeah but I am sure that those breeders have info on their site like a name, phone number, maybe city they live in, address...or something that says who they are. Also...the biggest thing is...those breeders aren't Tim Bowles, a known scammer and bad guy ;)

Duh. the obvious. That's why I started my post "not defending the moron with the site". The poster was saying "in addition" (to the obvious that you mention), they found deposits for something in advance strange, and that they only except deposits for something that has shed and eaten. I was mearly pointing out that there is nothing unusual about that.

Exactly Matt! Who in their right mind would send deposits on non-existing animals to a completely anonymous person? Red flags pop up for me all over the place on this.... :shrug01:

like I was advocating that you or anybody send the scammers a deposit. You didn't say...."who is going to send this scammer a deposit, when you don't know who it is".
Read your post, as written it seems you are not familiar with what is a common practice, and that's why you mention you only accept a deposit on something you already have, and is feeding, and that you thought it "counting your chickens before they hatch". I was simply letting you know that that is acceptable (for reputable breeders, even though YOU wait till your animals are hatched and feeding) and that I wasn't defending snowballs.
 
To someone known and reputable who I know would follow through, fine, I can accept that. But I am sceptical about most people...which is why I don't generally agree with that practice whether or not it is common. I never said you were defending Snowballs or advocating anyone should send him money. I was only stating my opinion on the matter.
 
Anyone seen "Snowballs" lately on the various forums????

I think he is laying low (again) and hoping this will pass.... :bolt01:

Sorry man, but I don't think that strategy is going to work!!!!

:blowup:

I didn't want to post this on the other forum he frequents Scott because I am new there but here is a little background on 'Snowballs'.

Snowballs started in with me on a ball forum really ragging on me. I was told he was on another site under the name 'Snowballs'. I did my homework and eventually found out he is Everett Slagle and his wife's name is Jean...which he admitted to on another forum. Everett is from Columbus Ohio and is a retired gentleman. Upon searching this gentleman out, I found out that there were only two Everett Slagle's in Ohio and what do you know...I am sorry to say that they have both passed away.

It's very easy to find all of this stuff btw... - Everett lived at an address that looked very familiar to me so I did some more checking and found out that Tim Bowles and his wife lived at the same exact address at the same time as Everett...coincidence you say...maybe not. After doing some more checking the name Slagle looked very familiar also and what do you know...Timothy Matthew Bowles married Susan ('J' as in Jean) Slagle.

Everett says he is a retired fellow but he occasionally logs onto forums from OSU medical center. Coincidently Tim Bowles works at the same place as this gentleman.

Now if you call information in Columbus Ohio...they have no listings at all for Everett or Jean Slagle. It's not that they are unlisted or non-published, but nothing at all.

The department of records for Ohio shows only two Everett Slagles and both are deceased.

The DMV doesn't have any current record of Everett Slagle having a drivers license so I ask you this...how is he going to drive to the medical center to post on forums?

Everett Slagle conveniently has the same address as Tim Bowles on his PayPal account...

Everett posted a picture of a 'benifits card' on another forum 'proving' who he is. Everything was blacked out except 'Mr. Everett' and 'Columbus Ohio'. I was sarcastically told that this is something you get after 36 years on the job when you retire. Could it be Everett's old benifits card?

Enough? There's plenty more and if Everett/Tim wants to come here and explain all of this let him/them...there is always the chance that I am completely mistaken about all of this...and if I am, I am very sorry for all of the coincidences, and similarities...

Sorry, I should have said this in my first post...

Matt - I would most definitely post this on the site where he originally posted the "Everett" proof. If you don't feel comfortable doing it, I will - with your permission....

Scott
 
No reason to apologize ever Matt. It is clear as to who he is and what he is. If by some miracle this fellow was someone other than Tim it would have been evident a long time ago and they wouldn't be playing these mental gymnastics besides if he continued you act like that, in my opinion he would be someone to avoid any ways. Normal ethical people don't hide info escpecially when being compared to someone of Tim's reputation. So please don't ever apologize again.
 
Holy smokes.........

WOW ......so it seems that Everett is Tim Bowles dead father in-law.....No wonder while posting as Everett he didnt want to say whether he knew Tim or not on the other forum ........ Totally unreal ........Who would have thought lil Timmy boy would sink so low ............Oh wait ...... We are talking about Tim Bowles arent we .........And really this isnt the 1st time lil Timmy has tried to use a dead person to his advantage in his sick lil game .........

I wonder .......Since Tim still has his dead father in-laws 'benifits card' what other scams he is using it for ?????
 
Well Everett passed away at the age of 81 and this was in 1999 so maybe the retirement benifits card does belong to Everett Slagle. If you do a search on 'Ev' Susan J. Slagle comes up along with him and if you do a search on Susan J. Slagle, Tim Bowles comes up with her as her husband...so at 81 I would think that 'Ev' was her father since they come up together on all of the stuff I found. And yes I can see Tim using someone that is no longer with us...
 
Matt,

I am glad you were finally able to post the information. Now everyone can see the Old Timmy is still a lowlife and still running scared. Come on Timmy boy.....Come out of hiding now.
 
Hey Rob,

Yeah...enough was enough. I even had his latest Ghi site shut down again today and from what Freewebs said...he doesn't seem to want to abide by the law and he doesn't respect my rights to the name so they will be handling it in a different way starting tomorrow. Some people don't know when to quit but soon enough I think he will get the message that he has taken it too far.
 
I see "Snowballs" is frequently going to anoher forum and posting stuff now. He has a link to his website there, he's testing the water by posting pics of snakes. Any bets on how long before he tries to sell something?
 
I wasn't sure if I could post a link to the other forum so I will pm it too you and you can decide.
 
I pm'ed the admin council of the site and made sure they knew who he was. They said they would keep an eye on him, but I see has an ad up to sell a couple of used vision cages.
 
The sad thing is that some people don't know about him, who he really is, and what he has done in the past and continues to do.
 
Well the admin people came and read the thread, so at least they know.
