    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....

Sure didn't. Pretty incriminating that he yanked them both right after this inquiry was made... Actions speak louder than words though, all he did by removing them was prove me correct.
 
Looks like the powers that be re opened it for us ..

LOL I just read it! I dont think posting a photoshopped version is a good way to prove that you didn't photoshop the second one .. Sounds suspect ..
 
So to sum this up, he yanked both adds in question IMMEDIATELY after I question them, applies another in their place where he shows us 2 versions of the same picture (the bottom one looking remarkably similar to the ones in the adds he removed) then request his add to be locked but before he does, he "all caps" us with.. how dare we pick on him. Check and Mate.
 
I tried to look at the metadata on the images, but Lightroom couldn't pull anything off either one to tell me if the first one has been edited or not.

Hm. Let me correct my statement -- I don't think the data was intentionally stripped from his photo, by him. In looking around at other images, it *appears* that the forum upload software automatically strips metadata from any image it uploads.
 
If he had left the 2 adds in question up and had not deleted them, i assure you, you wouldn't have needed any program to tell. She looked as if she was about to spontaneously combust she was glowing so bright. Altering images in this manner to make an animal APPEAR different than it ACTUALLY does in hopes of selling it is Fraudulent Behavior. It is my opinion that this is what he did. Not to mention, he knew of this thread and instead of standing behind his photos and their legitimacy, he deleted the adds.

Brandon,

Are the photos in the ad Anthony screencapped and posted the glowing bright ones, or were there different, brighter images up before?
 
They were different. 2 different adds who's links I placed in my first post. He removed one within 10 minutes or so after making this inquiry. I had made a comment on that one. Then, he deleted the second add in question not long after. He replaced these 2 in question with the one we see now.
 
He also said not to post on his classifieds anymore, to PM him if I had a problem, so I did... That was hours ago that I did that and he was on-line then and well after but never responded. If someone claims I did this, I would be front-row-center clearing my name... I did inform him in that PM that Mods can still pull pics and info from an add even after it has been deleted.
 
here are the photos from the original ad. the first ad (1st pic) did look a little off, I'm far from an expert however.

delete the ad and my account if you feel it needed. im keeping the bearded dragon also. she is a very pretty dragon and if some photos were unliked then do what you feel is needed. they are lizards. im going to just breed her and make space for her then have her go to the crazies on here on this forum.

also the gumby guy who commented on my page started calling me with a private number and they were harassing phone calls with threats which i think is a little excessive

have a good day and get a life

Acting guilty much?
 
For the record, he isn't referring to me about the phone calls. I will say one thing though, your reply here wasn't very thought out and certainly wasn't the best way to address this.. but good job :shootfoot
