• 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....

Or using any other contact method available, really...

That is all fine and dandy, but if it is a case of your needing something deleted or edited, sorry, but you are on your own with that. I offer *FREE* advertising in the various classified forums here. That comes with some responsibilities that are solely yours. If you want me and the staff to also manage them for you, well the *FREE* label would have to come off. It is OUR time you are asking for and it is valuable to us. Does this sound fair to you?

But there IS a solution! Simply become a paying member and that extends the time limit for editing and deleting your ads to unlimited. Otherwise, 24 hours after you post something, it is locked. Too much of me to ask? Well, sorry about that. But consider this, please: If that IS too much to ask of you, then what do you think my time is worth to me? Nothing? Your time is so much more valuable to you than mine is to me? Sorry, but I beg to differ. My attitude (which some many consider as being quite harshly negative) is that if what you want of me is not worth $25 per year to you, then it certainly is not worth my giving MY free time on you. Harsh? Gee, I hope not. I really am saying this as nicely as I can.
