    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....

I'm still just trying to sort of take this all in. So, Rich Z is a poster with one name and is webslave as well?
And as Rich Z posted a paid add on this site about another guy who ripped him off?

Are you kidding me? Seriously?

Yes, that is correct. What is your problem with it?
 
You run the boi. You have two id's, ummmm, isn't that a no no for anyone else and considered a way to scatter past detection? And you use the site to run an ADD about a personal problem. Could anyone else spend money to do that on this site? If they could do you think that fits the purpose of the site? I am shocked an amazed at the lengths you feel you have the right to go to. Is this your own personal little empire? I think that this sort of behavior does more to harm the boi than anything I can even begin to imagine. Conflict of interest, HELLO?

This has been addressed before.

As admin of this site, I don't believe that it is appropriate for me to express my PERSONAL opinions about BOI related issues concerning businesses or persons. Some people thought that it would be overly influential, that some may feel it carries more weight then it actually should. So my personal ID is for those sorts of issues. I try to reserve the "WebSlave" logon for issues pertaining directly with this site and the management thereof. At least that is the goal, but honestly sometimes the dividing line can be blurred.

Sorry you don't like it, but really, that's just the way it is and the way it is going to be.

And yes, anyone can log into my FaunaAds site and post the same sort of banner ad if they wish to do so.

Personal problem? Someone screwed me out of money by buying snakes from my SerpenCo business and didn't pay for them is a PERSONAL problem? Sorry, but it is obvious to me that you don't have the faintest idea of what you are talking about.

they could do you think that fits the purpose of the site?

Yeah, right.... So now YOU are going to tell ME what the purpose of this site is? :rolleyes:

And I will tell you this flat out. I am DAMNED tired of people taking potshots at me on my own site. You just go ahead and keep it up if you wish, but I suggest that you start planning your orderly exit strategy from this site right now . Quite frankly your opinionated statements make no sense whatsoever, and is obviously just intended to be a personal attack on me. So this is your LAST warning to cease with that sort of crap here.

If that is the way you want to interpret what I said to you, then yes, that is correct.

There is no bad behavior on rich's part. he does exactly what he should do by using both names.

The way I see it, this is Rich's website and he can run it the way he sees fit. It is not your place to come on here and start criticizing and griping at people. If you don't like it, the door is not hard to find. :nopity:

Rich, she is chasing you around in multiple threads, thats considered stalking. it's an internet crime so get her since she likes to bring up laws lol.
 
This is sad

Mona...this is Rich's website...he runs it....deals with all the good and bad crap that comes outta it just so all of us who LOVE it can enjoy it...this website is an amazing tool for all herpers...weather they need a place to sell their animals...find info on problems ooooooor to warn everyone about scum that might scam someone on a deal....I can go over quiet a few people i know that have been saved by this website, either from being scammed, or for resolving a scam that devastated them

I'm pretty sure that means Rich=God around here....weather you like it or not

soooo...yea...he can do as he wishes...on HIS website

if you don't like it....I'd say go make your own website and see how well that works out for you =)
 
With all due respect to most of the recent participants, this IS a BOI thread...let's try to keep it on track.
 
Wow I am new, It appears that reptiles are like the diamond business. A lot of trust in a very small community. These people that abuse animals then cheat people out of hard earned money need to be sent a signal. Why not simply show up and break his legs with a base ball bat? Maybe a signal will go out that there is a cost for everything.

Food for thought

Quite likely the breaker of legs would wind up in jail on assault charges, which I doubt would be a happy ending to this.

Not really. I did receive a couple of checks from him a while back that came to about half of what he owed. No notes attached, no explanation nor apology.

But in the last couple of years, haven't heard a word from or about him.
