    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

Just a heads up (INFO)

I hate to disagree when you obviously wanted some support here and I am not looking for an argument but...I'm confused.

Why did you think he was snotty?? It appears to me that you went out of your way to tell him that he was wrong about what he had. He didn't ask for anyone's opinion on identifying the turtle and there's no way you could know what he had for sure. In effect, you started it by

Yes, BOTH of you could have been a little more diplomatic but I don't understand why you're warning everyone about this person. What exactly did he do that was bad?

Maybe it's just me...I have migraine and cluster headache problems and I've been in pain for 3 days straight now...it could be that I'm just missing something and in that case, please accept my apologies.
 
Don't worry no offense taken.

I was simply asking for a clarification on what the turtle actually was. I hate seeing people advertise turtles and not know what it is in reality.

Also about the turtle being pregnant. It sounds very fishy reading what they said about. I should start looking the phases of the moon and see if my turtles lay their eggs according to it.:D
 
I don't see anything to be worthy of a warning post either. Did you do any business with this guy or do you simply not like how he responded to your inquiry (well... I would not call it an Inquiry.. looks like you were trying to be a smarty pants on his ad if you ask me...)
 
Oops! I mean to say, "You started it by telling him he didn't know what he had." I don't know WHAT happened to the rest of my sentence! LOL!

Thank you for not taking offense to what I said. I know first hand what it's like to vent about something here and then get jumped on for it. ;)
 
I never said it was a warning. I simply stated that it's information about a dealer that is fairly new to the hobby. Sorry if I'm not making any sense.

I'll just shut up now.
