    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....

NERD supports Voids and plays with them

Jim you are too funny! LMAO That is the lamest attempt at humor by far I have seen from you. Truly pathetic and I know alot of folks agree. Get a life or a girlfriend.....really.

LAME! Very lame.

If you have spent the minute or two since I posted it taking a poll on it then certainly you are the one in need of a life. :>poke2<:

Don't really need to take a poll.....just need to read other sites including this one. LMAO
 
Is NERD ever going to post? I think alot of people have questions that are unanswered... I am not taking any sides as of yet.. I think NERD should come here and make a post to answer some of the unanswered questions... Anybody else feel the same way I do?
 
They won't post again to answer the questions.

There are a lot of questions regarding the woma x carpet cross they still haven't answered.
 
I am not really sure about the whole woma x carpet thing you are talking about but I think they should post to answer some of the questions.. I think it would be better for there reputation to answer the questions than to just pretend to fall off the face of the planet.. This whole thing makes me weary of buying from them..
 
What good would it do for them to answer. Them = Kara btw. Jason obviously can't form a thought or he would have known better than to pull this crap in the first place with the voids and the kiddies. Kara will just lie. So really...there is no point. I'm just glad they are finally showing more people the broader side of what they stand for. I'm weary too bro...but then again I have never liked ball pythons much so $32,000 for an inbred snake that could drop dead in a week...really isn't something I'd ever consider even if I thought Kara and Kevin were half as cool as they think they are so losing my business is a moot point lol.
 
Last and only reminder to keep it on topic and civil, folks. I've already issued a couple warnings to participants in this thread, and don't really look forward to having to issue out more (to include possible suspensions) in the morning.

Don't see it happening. They already did damage control on their site so no one could see the true context these pictures were posted in. So and answer would be asking way too much. If they had any intestinal fortitude they would answer, but that would be a big streach for them.

ok ken
considering the last few weeks here, is suspention such a bad thing?
send it to hell so people can duke it out there








hmmmmmm 2:48 am CST, still waking hours ahhhhh
 
I was blown away by what I saw. I recognized who was in the picture, but I'm sure that others didn't. Some of the people jumping all over David probably did so not because they condoned what they saw... They did so because they couldn't believe that NERD would do something like that, and wanted to be sure that was really NERD, and not something else.

After the facts were played out and NERD did respond, there sure could have been a little more appreciation shown for what David tried to do here. So the presentation was a little bit clumsy. He went out on a limb, and spoke his mind. And he was right.

When I saw these pic's I was speechless. Absolutely dumbstruck. I've always enjoyed Kara's posts, and I've seen some breathtaking animals that are a part of NERDS collection. I'm not talking about the morphs... I've seen drop dead gorgeous Boa's, blood pythons, hell - lot's of things. I've always had the utmost respect for NERD... before this.

As a leader in the industry NERD really should come clean about this whole thing. What's the real story on the origin of these voids?


At this point all of the unanswered questions will look a lot worse than the simple truth possibly could.
 
There's no need to send this to HELL. This is a big issue, and shouldn't be "buried on page 23"... so to speak. If anyone wants to "duke it out" a new thread could easily be started in down there.
 
I think the initial posting of the pictures is more than enough to warrant the title of the thread, without having to back anything up, and displays the context itself.
Here is what I see in the pictures(and it matches the title, wooohoo!).
A Nerd (some may choose the word dork, or geek to describe him, David chose nerd)

Supporting( that cobra isnt levitatiting, or floating on a cotton candy cloud, and is clearly "supported" by the fella mentioned above)

and playing (yeah, it's "educational" but so is "playing with legos, or a gyroscope)

Voids (this is the only part I am not sure fits with the title without clarification, as there is no evidence in the pictures to show that the snakes in the pictures have been venom-glandularly-neutered)

Yeah, I said "venom-glandularly-neutered" use it, and I will sue...or something

I would have to agree.

Sorry folks but I did not twist a single thing. I only posted what others have already posted and I posted those posts in their entirety.

Actually, you did not. I was wrong in my initial assessment of what David was all about in his initial post and I stated it.

It appeared by the way it was posted and I pointed it out in my follow-up post to the one you quoted was that David was someone who had a bad transaction with NERD because he rated them negative in their certification.

The discussion took a different path largely because in the same post he said he actually knew nothing about the true origins of the pictures and everyone could go find out for themselves.

I have also stated that, I don't like what I see in the pictures. Not only should voids be handled as hots at all times, I personally believe there should be no voids in the first place. IMO. Rescues or not, they should be treated with more respect.

I have to agree on this point as well. I have purchased from NERD and have received awesome animals and outstanding customer service. But I have no problems stating that I disagree with photos posted here.
 
Now back to the issue at hand. I think educational shows are a great thing for this hobby if done properly. The showboat mentality displayed by those pictures is far from the proper way to do an educational presentation. Venomoid or not that just adds fuel to the fire to ban reptile ownership nation wide. This is not being a good steward for the reptile community at all and I think most will agree with that. Big time breeder or not anyone does this it is just bad for all of us in the long run.
 
[sarcasm]

What a nice pleasant way to spend your free time....

Try to save some chum for the sharks children....

[/sarcasm]

P.S. Freehandling is an unacceptable practice, hot or void. No excuses whatsoever. Try and you're an imbecile. Also unacceptable is the blind ignorance of those willing to overlook these actions of the offender(s) and pounce on the messenger simply due to the name or status of said offender(s). You should be absolutely ashamed of yourselves....

I do beleive the guys (and gals) at NERD should address this matter, and perhaps change thier views and practices. Teaching people not to respect hots correctly is absolutely insane.......

I really do not see the point of further conversation other than a response from NERD.
