    **************************************************
    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.....

    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....

Possible Changes to Contribuitor Level account?

If you want to get into a pissing match... we can take it to hell. I had an idea... and ran it by Rich via PM... he asked me to post it here.

Pissing match? You seem to be the one who is getting pissy. Besides, you do not have the bladder capacity to get into a pissing match with me so I will decline your invitation and will save you the embarrassment.

I dont know how you can come off and say anything is NOT appreciated. In business you try and come up with new ideas on how to do stuff that MIGHT....just might set you apart from everyone else.

I say that you don't appreciate the time, effort, money and risk Rich has put into this site, that you are using to advertise your business and sell your animals for free, because you have not contributed a measly $25 to show your appreciation.

And since apparently you dont like to read ideas that MIGHT be contrary to your own... here's an idea. UTILIZE THE IGNORE BUTTON in your control panel.

You may want to heed your own advice seeing as my replies have gotten under your skin as much as they have. :thumbsup:

Lets talk about loyalty.

You've been a member here since Nov 06 and only have 163 posts.
I've been a member here since Sep 08 with 614 posts.

Who's more loyal to Fauna.... I can tell you this much... you may have dropped a little coin... but I have put in more time here and contributed more.

:lol01: Well all the above is a bunch of garbage, especially your claim to have contributed more. BTW, if he has been a member since Nov '06 and you since Sept '08, he has put in more time. :dunce: But if we were to use your measuring stick then you do not even rate compared to me. I have more posts (well over ten times as many as you), I have been here since Nov '03 (close to 5 years longer than you) and I even dropped a little coin. BTW, when over 10% of your posts are classifieds your true number of posts would be even less. And no, none of my posts are classifieds.

Still want to talk about loyalty?

Please try to keep things constructive.

The steep slope of the A-frame roof is designed to help heavy snow to slide to the ground, instead of remaining on top of the house and weighing it down. The steep roof also provides maximum efficiency for air conditioning and lower wind resistance. At the same time, the sloped roof provides two other benefits. It creates a half floor at the top of the house which can be used for lofts or storage space, and the roof extends down either to the ground or to the top of the foundation, thus minimizing the amount of exterior maintenance required on the house.

..... just trying to keep things constructive. :D
 
What was that thing I read........

oh yeah
Go pi$$ up a rope, Sammy
:rofl:

oops, I hope that didn't come off as adversarial :blush:
 
Lmao...... and good morning to you too, Harald!!


-begin off topic chatter-

Hope you and yours have a great Thanksgiving Holiday, my friend!

-end off topic chatter-
 
Sigh....... :shrug01:

Yeah, I know, Rich....but it seemed like the right response at the time (still does, actually :ack2: )

Back to business.
Tinmantribe5,
When I saw your PM'd response, I had somewhat hoped you'd be a big enough person to follow up in this thread...(hint, hint)
 
Funny post Sammy! and no Kevin, you don't want to get in a pissing match with DAND, because you won't win and one of the mod's will have to come in with a mop/bucket and clean everything up.!

Randal Berry
 
Randal.... I aint worried bout Dand. I deal with worse than him on a daily basis. Rich answered my question... which was posted here at his request. The rest I dont really care about cause I really do have better things to do.... like clean cages :)
