    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....

Is this a weird normal, or what? (white scale "tipping")

This little guy came into the shop where I work, and he doens't look quite like any other corn I've ever seen. He's got white tipped scales in the middle of, and aroudn the edges of, his saddles like some amels have -- but he's darkly pigmented, and the saddles are clearly ringed in black. His eyes are copper with dark pupils. He seems to be about "yearling" sized, eighteen inches or so and in a lanky stage.

Is this white tipping actually common in normal corns and I haven't seen it before? Or is he just an oddball, a regional varient, an obscure morph, or what? Anyone know?
