    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....

Your assumptions are that the moderator and Casey are both honest. I have no reason to believe they are not, but also no personal knowledge that they are. The IP address is not available to the public for verification, nor is the email sent to Casey. Several users have now posted, all insisting that I accept YOUR LEVEL OF PROOF as sufficient. ONE person has posted having direct contact with the seller, and, as far as I can tell from that post, was given correct information.

What I protest is the habit of users in this forum of making claims against individuals with whom they have not had direct dealings, based upon what another user claimed happened. If the persons having direct dealings want to post what happened to them, I am quite willing to read what they have to say. What I am not willing to do is accept second-hand hearsay as evidence. So, I ask again: will any user having direct dealings with Kevin Orbanus please post what happened, positive or negative. Not dealings with "Nick", not what was related by another user, but direct dealings with Kevin Orbanus.

That is your opinion, we are entitled to ours. I don't feel the need to prove anything else to you. You don't have any reason to question the honesty of the moderator or Casey, but yet you do. If have several reasons to question the honesty of Nick/Kevin, but don't. If this guy wasn't guilty, don't you think he would be here defending HIMSELF!!!

Ah your full of it. I saw it when it changed

What you looking for?
And the point being that an IP address changes, as mine just did and does several times a day. Citing an IP address does not prove that they are the same person. Did I suddenly become someone else when mine changed?

Please cite any post from me that claims they are not honest.

Possibly for the same reason he stopped posting in the original thread. Once this group has labeled a person, it matters very little what the facts are. As I've already said, you make a convincing case against Nick. Your claims against Kevin are less so, so I reserve judgement until I here more first-hand experiences from users dealing with Kevin Orbanus.

Your post above questions their honesty.

This isn't a court of law, so get over it.
 
Just in case you missed it his real name isn't even Kevin it's Joseph.

Oh, I do so love being quoted out of context! Let's post it in context, shall we?

Hmmm.... I never said they are dishonest, but I noted that I have nothing on which to base an opinion about their honesty. Have you any further disinformation to dispense?

I would never mistake this kangaroo court for any court of law. You've already tried and convicted too many people on too little evidence for me to make that mistake.

My brothers' names are Joseph, Dale and Thomas. For many years, we rented a house together and shared a phone number. Again, your "proof" doesn't measure up, so ESAD.

I said you questioned their honesty, read that statement, it is exactly what is says. :thumbsup:

Oh now he lives with his brother, let me guess he has another one named Nick. :rofl: Have fun convincing yourself of your "conspiracy theory", you are a waste of time.

At every juncture, you choose to assign sinister motive to everything, including, apparently, the name on his mailbox. I pointed out an equally plausible and quite innocent reason, negating any presumed weight to your newly heralded "evidence".

I don't see a conspiracy. I see a pack mentality.
 
At this point all that matters is that the facts have been put out there for the public to see. What they choose to do with it is entirely up to them.
 
Eaton-Maxwell has provided evidence of several things:

I don't see a conspiracy. I see a pack mentality.

1) That "Occam's sword" (thanks Wes) is a concept difficult for some to heed, and as such, they never learn;

2) That "all things possible" is often confused by some as "all things plausible";

3) If you spend time "arguing with an idiot, all that passers-by will see is two idiots arguing";

4) That "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me" was originally coined by someone based on personal observations of folks who never learn.

5) Our entire Democratic Republic system, from elections to trial-by-jury, is evidently based on the "pack mentality" of the majority, especially when my guy loses !

Couldn't resist, but all, of course, just IMHO. :D
 
The "pack mentality" that Jaxom speaks of describes a group of people here that can be ruthless in their sniffing out of bad guys in the herp business. And nothing wrong there, it's neccessary with the amount of scamming that goes on every week. Jaxom did ask for folks who had personally dealt with the seller, didn't get any, thus his repeated requests. He didn't ask for a link to another thread about this (apparently these) person(s) past dealings. Altho, I'd think the thread posted should speak for itself. FWIW I've sold corns at that price, you pretty much give away the normals, amels, etc (common stuff) in hopes to get your name out there. Jaxom seems new to the site, this and Rich's corn site, and hopefully will see that while some members may "rub against the grain", they are passionate in their belief that scammers have NO business in the community, and may "grate the nerves" a bit in their quest to keep our community "bug free". Reading the thread linked should be enough to keep anyone away from the person in question. (it won't tho). The fact that he's is selling such obviously low dollar snakes means he legitimately has these animals (still wouldnt buy from him lol) or he's the cheapest scammer in the world. Jaxom, welcome to CS and FC, and to the other members, keep up the good work :*)

PS if anyone knows where this persons "shop" is in Baltimore, i'm in the area alot and would be glad to swing thru :)
 
Next thing you know he'll be talking about having seen The Masked Rider and his Whitest of White Steeds and we all know what a farce that whole thing is.....
 
Oh my God I just figured it out. All of you are the same person and only me and Jaxom are different. What an eye opening revelation.

Unless you have proof proving other wise save your breathe.

Proof can only be provided by sending me $50.00 with your name attached.
