    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....

OT - Rattlesnake roundup

But, thanks for posting that, sorry about my reaction, it was rude. I think that fauna is a great place to post that. What they do is cruel and unsanitary, it should be stopped.
 
I know that I have tunnelvision when it comes to forums. I am on over 2 dozen forums and I dont see a lot of stuff not posted in areas I frequent. Even though I have many snakes, I don't visit those forums, so.... Just trying to spread the word as best I can. Please feel free to post it everywhere you think people might see it and help.
 
Hi,

My name is Abhishek Prasad, and I am on the Board of Directors with the Las Cruces Reptile Rescue, whose director, Roy Thibedeau wrote this petition. On behalf of Roy, and the Rescue, I'd like to thank everyone who has signed the petition (over 3000 signatures!), and personally thank beardiedragon for posting the petition link around. I did so a while back when we first put out the petition, it's good to see that people are still making it visible. Thanks again,

Abhishek Prasad
 
I saw a rattlesnake roundup on the news years ago. I thought that it had been banned since I hadn't heard of it for a while. Thanks for informing us that it's still going on and that there is something that we CAN do to help stop it. I really hope that you reach your goal of 10,000 so that we can stop this cruelty!
