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.

    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....

I am looking for a friend and member of the fauna and cs.com forum communities.
She seems to have just dropped off the face of the earth since back in December 2010.

If anyone can come forward with reassurance of her welfare and well-being,...that would give me great relief and allow me to sleep much easier.
Knowing she is safe and alive and content is all.
She is a neat, kind, unique, and fun person who I am sure I am not alone in missing.
Thank you.

No, Kathy, I don't think so. She just abruptly stopped posting.

And it is my understanding that this abrupt disappearance(?).....was in the middle of several snake purchases and a number of snake breeding-loan transactions.....that still remain open and dangling and unresolved.
 
Yes, we are concerned of the welfare of her and all animals involved in the situation.

Being one of the parties of unresolved snake loans to Betsy, of course I would like my animals back, but I am also concerned as this situation seemed to come out of nowhere. She was a very active participant in several forums and one day just left, like that. All calls and emails remain unanswered.

I hope she is doing ok.
 
Sorry to hear that, I remember hearing about this when it first started on cornsnakes.com... I was hoping you'd find them since whenever I go on the site I always wondered what happened with the situation.
 
Just an update, in case anyone had animals under Betsy's care and didn't see the CS thread. We have been informed (it's all on the CS thread http://www.cornsnakes.com/forums/showthread.php?t=110393) that Betsy was recently visited by a concerned friend. This friend discovered a house full of dead snakes. From what I can gather, she continued to work every day, just stopped feeding and watering her (and our) animals. It was described as if they had been dead for a long time when her friends cleaned them out. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. :(
