    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....

Bad Guy John Farr dogshead3

I am very sorry to hear about the difficulties and complications that arose out of the sale prospect. I have acquired four snakes from John Farr in the past year and have not encountered difficulties with the seller. He has been very kind to my girlfriend and I, and even allowed us into his home to see some of his collection, when we have visited to purchase animals. The snakes I have purchased from him were in perfect health and continue to be, and I have not had any issues with his business practices or communication.

Stephen, I am happy to hear that you had a good transaction. It appears that with little provocation, John becomes...unbalanced with his buyers, and as you can read here, starts to rave like a lunatic as well as dishonoring his word in a bet situation, all in writing here.

Count yourself lucky.

Maybe since you are on good terms with him you can ask if he intends to honor his bet.

He has absolutely no intention of giving you money for the "bet" It was more of a figure of speech thing when he said it. Alliteration or the exaggeration of hyperbole to provide a dramatic effect. You're dealing with an off kilter person. Best to just move on and avoid.
 
Yes, it was him being flippantly hyperbolic. I, too, would let the account of the situation stand as it is unless there are further developments and put energy into finding a new boa elsewhere.
