• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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....

People who monopolize the classifieds...

Marcia, I think that long line of posts was directed at Joe Capones........Cant say it, just gonna be nice. Guy that posted 10 times in a row. it has not been that bad at all this summer with the annual Baby Ball Python Wars.

Their are a few here that have no respect towards others.

I think the solution should be to impose a 3 post limit to control these postin fools.

Just my take on this. :shrug01:

EDIT; H you type a little faster than me, but we were thinking along the same lines. :thumbsup:

That is not a normal advertising strategy for Ben - it may well have been in response to "the Rickster's" 12 posted ads. :shrug01:

I think you are confusing Benjamin Cole with Michael Cole who is the Classifieds abuser of the day.
 
You're right...I recognized Ballroom as being a "Cole", and Ben is what came off my fingers. My apologies, Ben.
 
In this case the 'ad abuser' was Ballroom, but I have seen others post up to 7-8 ads in a row, and have seen the same folks bump their ads back up to the first page when they fell on to the second page.
