    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 a refund in order since the leos were shipped W/O a cool pack in 95 degree weather

Please...

All y'all know darn well that if Rich hadn't decided to take a break from things for a while that he would have stepped in on this LONG ago. This thread has more than side-tracked and is way off topic now. How about we show Rich (and ourselves) a little respect and try to keep this thread about the original issue. It is on the BOI remember...
 
Dennis: What gives with your sidetracking this thread about me? You have never proven any of your childish name calling. And you already know that Serpentboy, a self admitted criminal took my points, so why are you pretending to not remember?
 
Your points were all green not red since he has been banned from this site.
Actually you were all green until the last thread you were on.

Dan, if you thought that your initial post wouldn't provoke the responses you received, you should really stick to the "Moron Extraordinaire" thread.
 
Dennis: I will ask you again: Why are you sidetracking this thread about me? If you are so concerned about my rep points, provide some courtesy to the other readers who's time you are wasting and give me a call or email. But I will tell you ahead of schedule that I never paid any attention to them and they do not mean anything to me. And even way-back when I discovered what a rep point was, the webmaster informed me it was Seprentboy and that Kelly name he was hiding behind. And I do not know even if it was adjusted, and I really do not care nor do I pay any attention to it.

Paul: I think you know by now that I am not intimidated nor will I be strong-armed by the usual group of bafoons who throw names and curse words at people. I enjoy revealing their true character. It tells a lot about how they care for their reptiles.

Justin: Did you mean that I gave anyone a negative rep point? I do not even know what a rep point is and could care less. Heck, the biggest thieves on this forum have the most rep points. I never joined this club, someone else signed me up?

Dan,

I think maybe you need to stick to badmouthing people you actually know something about. You have provided no PROOF that anyone with high reputation points is a crook or thief, yet you continually demand proof from everyone else when you make statement that is rebutted.

I can tell you that in my dealings with a few of the people on the Top 10 list, I have experienced nothing but honesty and integrity.

If I were ever in the California area, I would contact wilomn (Wes Pollock). I would entrust my life to this man and have never even met him...not to mention I have a crush on him! :raspberry

I have spoken with dragonflyreptiles (Wendy) a number of times and have come away feeling like a new person. Wendy has a way of making someone feel like they are the best parent in the world. ;)

Jim O is the most upstanding person I have EVER known. If I ever had a question about ethics, I would contact him. And I know that if I ever needed anything, Jim O would be right there. :cool:

EACH and EVERY experience that I've had with Webslave has been a learning experience for me about integrity.

As for robin s., TopShelfExotics, lucille, Manhattan Herps, and Golden Gate Geckos, I have never had any dealings with them and know nothing about them...(this is where you need to pay attention, Dan) and therefore, HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO REASON to call them crooks or thieves!

And now we get to the part that matters most to me. Rebel Dragons (Mike Shoemaker) is my best friend. He moved all the way from Pennsylvania to Tucson so that we could be closer. In fact, he's at my house SO much that I've already started rearranging furniture for him to move in. Oh, and Mike, Cory called this morning wanting his Cherry Coke. Do you know anything about that? LOL! Anyway, I can tell you without doubt that Mike is an honest person running an honest business...and is a fantastic friend!!!!

So Dan, next time you decide to sling poo around Fauna, you might want to have a clue what you're talking about. Just my .02.

Dan, you must have quite an expansive library....................With all those books you have read by simply looking at their covers.



Thats quite a statement you made there to Paul.

Dan I personally invite you to Arizona to tour my reptile room before you assume that my reptiles are not being taken care of simply from a few posts made on an internet forum.

Then you can crawl back home and post how wrong you were to have ASSumed such a thing about me. That is only after I rob you blind and leave you for dead on the side of the road. Because that is after all my true character right???
 
Awwww, Tere what a sweet thing to say :) I appreciate it but there really was no need to defend me or anyone else you mentioned.

No one here puts any value into anything said by Fauna's Resident Chief Moron Extraordinaire.

The only character being revealed is that of Sidetrack Dan Scolaro. A few adjectives come to my mind but I wouldn't want to stifle anyone's creativity. Y'all can draw your own conclusions.
 
ok let me ask... is this thread about jodi and this shipping practices, ethics and morals or is it about dan cuz i sure as ship know there is alread a thread going on about dan somewhere on this site? i think dan's opinions and the opinions about him should be made there.
 
Alright well SalaDragon posted a great reply. I hope it knocked some sense into the old Dr. Scolaro. Dr. Scolaro you keep losing more credibility by each and every post. When are you going to let up? This thread is done, if we are going to continue with him, let's head off to the HELL Thread. Jodi doesn't need to have 40 more pages of garbage on his thread that is totally unrelated. So this is my last post here unless something brings me back(DONT DO IT :) ) Let's quit filling this thread with this goon's senseless accusations and pull the plug on it now. No more bashing of this guy on here atleast! See ya...

Well Robin, you know the answer, but like every thread that Dan participates in it is always about Dan. Every single time.

But to get it back on track Robin, ye of HerpPortal or wherever you are, you made a somewhat offhand comment about Jodi's Bell albinos. Inquiring minds would like to know more.

And we miss your wit and humor too. :(
 
I think EVERYONE on this site should put scalero on ignore. Just flat out not read or respond at all ever again.

He's a total waste of time and space and WE would be better off without him here. His disention is not of the "making things better" variety but of the "it's all about me me me" variety and no one needs that.

Let's make July a dan scalero FREE month. P

Put him on IGNORE. Do it now and leave him there.

This is the WORST thing you could possibly do to him.

NO more responces to dan.
 
Good idea Wes. I'll even see if I can put a link on my sig line to "Ignore the bafoon [sic]".
 
jim i can not nor will not speak for others.. its that plain and simple
i have seen a couple of people reading this that know but have not said anything... i can not make them nor will i speak for them... jodi knows the issues... it was discussed in a thread a bit back.... i got several emails in the day or so that thread, odd apparantly so many people know and have first hand experience/knowledge yet wont post.
 
Then why bring it up Robin? Seriously. It's just slinging poo to say I know something bad about his animals and I won't tell you what it is.

I am gong to agree with Robin on this one. This thread is not about Dan his knowledge, rep points or cherry coke it is about shipping, myself and Jodi Atherns.. Please have some respect for the matter at hand as I would not do that to a thread about something that was important to you!

Calling him out on something he said about the animals having a disease is one thing but it has gotten out of hand and is blantley rude.

Yea, this issue is about geckos, not people who cannot stand behind false accusations. What else can be provided from the seller or buyer to resolve any outstanding issues on this matter. And Mike, I was not meaning you however I am more concerned with why you thought I was? Tere, I do not recall badmouthing those people for selling practices you mentioned or fauna for that matter. I have actually made many good postings applauding fauna. Wes, I thought you had only good things to say after straightening you out?
 
Dan if you agree the thread is about the geckos then shut the hell up about anything else!!!!
