• 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....

Inquiry Joeseph Pomrink-- anybody else having problems getting paid?

I have had a long and drawn out payment plan with Joeseph Pomrink username Boa Joe. Animals were traded, others loaned, and held in collateral and so-on, but once the balance of money and requirement of trust was tipped in his favor, he has disappeared and does not reply to any emails either through Fauna or directly.

We were solid for months, then I reversed an "instant" payment so that he could send it without fees, and he sent back an "e-check" that takes time to clear--apparently emptied his bank account of the funds---and now I can't get an answer from him. Hoping this thread will draw the light of attention enough for him to come correct and keep his reputation from becoming that of a thief. It seems only 20-email-freak-outs and pressure have any hope of getting a response, judging from our history so-far.

Making this an inquiry before escalating to a rip-off-report, to give the benefit of doubt--and because I am really hoping to be able to come back and report that he has honored his word and his debt, as he is so fond of saying his word is his bond.-----but wondering... Anybody else having similar issues? Feedback about experiences with his dealing either way are appreciated, and if any moderators could/would tag or otherwise make sure he is aware of this attempt to contact him, also much appreciated.
 
Seems like it too late but you should read the BOI and search for his name. Lots of past comments on him.

I had the "pleasure" of dealing with him as well. Sent my snakes the the wrong address, showed up 2 days late and stiffed me by giving me a het pied instead of a black pastel het pied.

Avoid.
 
oh, wow---that is discouraging as can be. This thread didn't appear back in January when we 'met', but I get the picture now. Thank you, Robert Walker.
 
It is a bummer to find a BOI report once you have already dealt with someone, I speak from experience. The BOI is awesome, but sometimes you have to expand your searches from the norm.

For example, I would search:
Joe
Joey
Joseph
Joeseph (unfortunately spelled wrong in your BOI thread)
pomrick
email address
phone number
business names
address
etc.

I often will try a trace on google which will lead me back to the BOI in an area that I missed. I do this on all potential customers and people I buy from. It is unfortunate, but a necessary evil.
