    **************************************************
    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....

Hey Folks might want to call it a day before the bigger guns decide to break up the party.. Randy

No Randy, it is not going to happen. There is no such rule, and it looks like there is not going to be a new one made, so there is no reason to hide this scumbag’s sexual preference. He is a sick puppy, and nothing more than a very perverted gay scumbag scammer.

Did I miss anything? No, that looks like it about covers it.

You can pick and apply any of the following:

1) This forum is designed to serve the purpose of giving anyone interested in the buying and selling of herptile related merchandise the opportunity to inquire about, or find already existing information concerning a person or business with whom they are considering doing business with. This is NOT the place for flame wars of any kind. Statements, rebuttals and clarifications of FACTS are what we are looking for. Personal slurs or heated discussions about someone's ancestry will not be tolerated.


2) Racist / Prejudicial Remarks - 4 points.
Pretty self explanatory. No one really likes to see this sort of thing and this site is no exception. This is another warning event that that you need to take heed of. Generally a second offense will mean a suspension.

3) Maliciously destructive off topic posting
New warning added on 12/21/07. I'm about as tired of the rampantly destructive derailing of threads by malicious off topic posting as anyone else here. I've been trying to figure out a good black and white definition to help the mods to enforce a rule to end this sort of nonsense, but such a definition has not been forthcoming. So, I am using a definition that is as best I can come up with, and leave it to the mods to interpret where, when, and against whom it is best applied.
 
Well Sam this is true, but I am sure if I look I can find a few posts by anyone that could fall into the same gray area. So, it is kinda like jumping from mountain to mountain, correct? :thumbsup:
 
Gay bashing aside the The point I was trying to make with out having to spell it out was-- that you folks have gone way way off course in this thread !!!!

Bobby I wasn't referring to the Prejudicial comments some were making as that is a matter of the opinion of the person reading the comments... Randy
 
Sorry Bobby, but in all frankness IMMHO, the gay stuff had no business in this thread. Nothing gray about it. I imagine we can find a forum somewhere to debate whether sexual preference is a choice or not. Have it either way. Skin color is not a choice, while religion is, and yet is there any debate as to keeping innuendos there off limits, or the lack of class that would be demonstrated to use either to deride someone? His being gay was mentioned here solely as a means to further bash him, and unfortunately by association, all who are gay. We got 500+ posts about what a bum/crook Shoemaker is/was. Plenty of good solid ammo to post over and over again for so long as folks want to keep this thread alive.
 
Besides all that....Laura said so. :yesnod:

We wouldn't have this ammo if not for her, and she expressed her regrets for letting it out. At least pay her the courtesy of dropping it.

My 2¢

Doesn't surprise me, Mike never gave a :censored: about any of those animals anyway.
Of course he didn't...sociopaths don't care about anyone (or anything) but themselves.

Well, the good thing is that now those particular animals are being very well cared for, and hey...get this...they're actually being FED!!!
 
Time Is Up

I sent the following e-mail to both of Mike's e-mail addresses that I have

You did it, you abandoned your animals. Good Job. Do not try and tell
others I stole them from you. I gave you ample time before your lies
came out. You had time to pick them up before stealing on E-Bay, you
even had time to get them back after stealing on E-bay. You even had
up to a month ago to get the back before I decided to seek some
compensation for their care. Then you had one last month to contact me
and work something out to get them back. You had your chance and
decided to not take care of them.

Diana is doing great and looks to be almost completely up to proper
weight. The hip bones that were noticeable when I picked them up are
almost unseen now. Meanie is also as fiesty as ever and is doing great
also. Victoria is beautiful and Redboy is huge and gorgeous. Maybe it
is a good thing you abandoned them, here they are well fed, warm and
happy.

Take care,

Michael Shelton
This is the third form of contact I have for you Mike. I know you like to lurk on here to find out how much more will be said about you. I made the e-mail quote here big, bold, and red so it will be a little easier to see for you, just in case you tend to scroll over this thread quickly.
