• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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....

Inquiry Mike Qiang (big apple)

When there is any question of this nature, a copy of a driver's license is then required to clear up the matter. The PURPOSE of all this is so that if someone IS scammed, then if they desire to try to pursue this through law enforcement agencies, at the very least they have a REAL FULL NAME to pursue. Otherwise, what's the point of filing a complaint? Granted, I am not absolutely strict on a COMPLETE full name, but it has to be CLOSE. Such as "Chris" instead of "Christopher". Sorry, but if your nickname is "T-bone" since grade school that still does not suffice here as your name. Nor will "JD" instead of "John David". Sorry, but I am not going through all the headaches maintaining the BOI to try to help clean up this industry and fail to require something very basic such as, who the heck YOU really are when you do business on this site.

So yes, when members here are caught out using false names, I treat this rather harshly. And I again urge all members to NOT do any transactions of any type with someone who is using a false name and/or location info. If the name to send money or merchandise to does not match who they say they are here, then YOU need to go on full alert. The rules I have put into place are an attempt to protect YOU from others who would attempt to defraud you using the services of this site as their vehicle. If you ignore these efforts on your behalf, then don't expect any sympathy out of me when you get burned.

I think you read a bit too much into my comment. I wasn't implying anything. I'm glad he's gone, TBH. I'm not questioning your decision. I was simply throwing it out there why (possibly) his name on his account is different than the name he gave Ty. I'm not trying to justify any actions on his part. It was simply an observation/idea.
 
It seems Lucille is still up in arms about BigApple posting Blairs photos as a comparison without his permission (who cares) that she is totally overlooking that fraud was trying to be perpetuated by coloring and doctoring the photos blue.........
 
Address points here if others were wondering.

I hate replying before I finish reading a whole thread it usually isn't ever a great idea.

I have only read to this quote above. That picture is fake as three dollar bill. The blue is on the carpet and newspaper. It really is a lousy job.
 
LOL...I wasn't going to pay him as we all recognized it, but i wanted to keep fishing for more information. We got what we needed to get him banned.
 
OK, gang, the show is over with. If there are more factual details to provide or pertinent opinions about the facts to be expressed, then please limit the conversation to those details. It appears that what was needed to be done, has been done. There is no need to shoot any more fish in this barrel.
