    =====================

    I am still waiting on my developer to finish up on the Classifieds Control Panel so I can use it to encourage members into becoming paying members. Google Adsense has become a real burden on the viewing of this site, but honestly it is the ONLY source of income now that keeps it afloat. I tried offering disabling the ads being viewed by paying members, but apparently that is not enough incentive. Quite frankly, Google Adsense has dropped down to where it barely brings in enough daily to match even a single paid member per day. But it still gets the bills paid. But at what cost?

    So even without the classifieds control panel being complete, I believe I am going to have to disable those Google ads completely and likely disable some options here that have been free since going to the new platform. Like classified ad bumping, member name changes, and anything else I can use to encourage this site to be supported by the members instead of the Google Adsense ads.

    But there is risk involved. I will not pay out of pocket for very long during this last ditch experimental effort. If I find that the membership does not want to support this site with memberships, then I cannot support your being able to post your classified ads here for free. No, I am not intending to start charging for your posting ads here. I will just shut the site down and that will be it. I will be done with FaunaClassifieds. I certainly don't need this, and can live the rest of my life just fine without it. If I see that no one else really wants it to survive neither, then so be it. It goes away and you all can just go elsewhere to advertise your animals and merchandise.

    Not sure when this will take place, and I don't intend to give any further warning concerning the disabling of the Google Adsense. Just as there probably won't be any warning if I decide to close down this site. You will just come here and there will be some sort of message that the site is gone, and you have a nice day.

    I have been trying to make a go of this site for a very long time. And quite frankly, I am just tired of trying. I had hoped that enough people would be willing to help me help you all have a free outlet to offer your stuff for sale. But every year I see less and less people coming to this site, much less supporting it financially. That is fine. I tried. I retired the SerpenCo business about 14 years ago, so retiring out of this business completely is not that big if a step for me, nor will it be especially painful to do. When I was in Thailand, I did not check in here for three weeks. I didn't miss it even a little bit. So if you all want it to remain, it will be in your hands. I really don't care either way.

    =====================
    Some people have indicated that finding the method to contribute is rather difficult. And I have to admit, that it is not all that obvious. So to help, here is a thread to help as a quide. How to become a contributing member of FaunaClassifieds.

    And for the record, I will be shutting down the Google Adsense ads on January 1, 2025.

Wouldn’t trust this 😂no hate but ole tims been doing this a minute
Same. Seems more like the pet transport version of a moving broker, than an actual transport company. "Our movers" is a huge red flag. That indicates that they take your money, and give the actual job to the lowest bidder, who may or may not be a trustworthy person.

Personally - I'll be sticking with Tim.
 
Just offering some competition
Where I come from, that's referred to as a "dick move", and the people who do those kinds of things are referred to as "assholes."

...Try coming up with your own ideas, instead of just ripping off someone else's. 🙄

A lot of people don’t like to deal with Tim but do it because there’s no other options outside of delta. Some people don’t want to drive 5hrs plus round trip to an airport and some people don’t want to do business with someone who has such hateful views about people.
Just because someone does something that someone else is doing isn’t ripping someone off. There’s multiple companies across the board who do the same thing as someone else. No one’s being ripped off. If this company can get to you before Tim can then what’s the issue?

1.) I've known Tim for a while and I've yet to encounter these hateful views you speak of. Care to elaborate a little?

2.) I never said Tim was being ripped off. I said the OP took his idea. Big difference.

3.) Yes, there are many cases of companies copying someone else's idea, setting up shop next to their competitors, and trying to snake their competitors' customers. Just because a lot of people do it doesn't mean it's not a dick move, or that those people aren't assholes, lol.

4.) Pretty sure the OP is just a middle man who takes your money, and then gives the actual job to the lowest bidder. If you're okay with that then good for you. Companies that partake in such practices (no matter the industry) are widely known to be shady af. So good luck to you if you ever use their service. (I mean that sincerely, btw - not bein a smartass.)

Where I come from, a "dick move" is going on to someone else's ad, trashing them and calling them names, and making false assumptions about them and their motives- despite not actually knowing anything about them.
FYI, nearly every business has some form of competition. While I have no idea what you do for a living, I'm going to go ahead and guess that it was originally someone else's idea- that you undoubtedly "ripped off".

I don’t care for anyone who’s speaks to women or anyone like this. Already too much hate in the world, not enough room for more.
Here’s your proof.

Then you need to do more research of who you are doing business with. Gould is a neo-nazi who has no respect for women. Noone respectable would do business with him. He deserves to be shoved into a corner of the earth to wither in his own hatred.
