    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....

Reptster.com experience with show sponsorship not good

I just looked at the frot page of Repster and your new logo is featured prominently. I also noticed something else. While on the page it showed me as a registered member online. Apparently david just deleted my ability to log in and has left me as a registered member. I would suspect that the rest of you who have had your membership "cancelled' have had it done in the same way. Hit their front page and check.

Great way to inflate those stats David.

John,
Very interesting. I was contacted by an admin of Reptster a few days ago (who, btw, was very nice and professional) who said he was able to delete our account from the forums, as that was the only area he had access to. I never checked from there. He had seen that we posted here that we were having issues, and said that he has been deleting people as he has been reading and seeing issues.

It seems that I have been IP banned from the forums section of the site, however, but can access the rest of the site. I checked the "events" page, and our show is still listed. When clicking on my name, all it says is "profile is not available to view" or something similar. But it too appears that I am still a member of the site.

The admin I spoke with did say that Mr. Young has control over Reptster Connect, which I assume means the rest of the site, and he only had access to removing people on the forums. He also stated that our member name should turn BLACK, meaning that we no longer existed as a member. When I looked at my member name on the Events page, it was still tan/yellow/green/whatever color you want to call it, but it is NOT black. However, when doing a member search, we do not come up.

Another interesting item...David's site stats on his own site. If you scroll to the bottom of the home page, he has a whole section devoted to them. His member count there says 1610. Click on "members" and scroll to the bottom of the page. It says 865 total results. Quite a discrepancy there, don't you think?

By the way, I did do a physical search through that members list, and did NOT see my name anywhere as a member of the site (nor John's). But my suggestion to anyone that has been told their membership has been canceled would be to just set the views to 90 per page at the bottom, and go through and physically look.

It seems that David has found a way around us being able to log in and yet still have a high member count, I may be mistaken. But he can show 1610 members on the site stats, and only has 865 listed on the member count after clicking those stats????

Just my 2 cents.

Oh, Jason, your profile photo is still very visible. Not sure for how long though...

And, just for the record, no contact from Mr. Young yet.

Back to working on show stuff!

I must have missed that in my member search.
Everyone but the admins there joined in 1969. I noticed that a long time ago and pointed it out to David once. I even joined in 1969. Interesting since I wasn't even born until '77...

Damn this whole IE vs. Firefox thing...that was meant to be under my name.

See, Matt is logged in on IE, I am on Firefox (just easier for us to not have to log in and out). When we get notification emails, they automatically come up in IE. So I tend to have moments where I forget and just respond. Forgive me. All this show stuff I have been doing the past 2 days has me fried, but at least I am fried in a GOOD way over the show right now!

Ahh, it is all clear now...I have been IP banned from the forum, so I cannot see him listed there. Must be a "glitch" in how they delete people.

Just out of curiosity, am I still on the forums as active (listed as KordeksKritters)? I can't tell...if so, I will be contacting the admin I spoke with about this whole thing...I absolutely do not want my name on his site anywhere as an active member in any capacity.

Not there anymore.
 
The above laughter outburst was intended for Steve's links to Reptster's bloated membership list. Too funny!
 
Apparently i got their attention. i know longer show as a member when i am online on the forums page. I did notice that Homegrown Herps is still showing as registered. i know Jim requested his account be closed.

John ...I noticed the same thing a few days ago ...it seems that the comments I made on a few threads (before I was aware of him ripping of the promoters ) are still there as well... I guess he needs to leave that stuff there. I have emailed RIPster asking that anything to do wit HGH be removed ...I doubt it will. I do about 11 shows a year, and talk ALLOT of people, so as long as they want to leave my name on that site ...I will inform as many people as I can about this thread and the way RIPster does business.
 
I'm IP banned from the forums and when I go there it says:

You must leave immediately, box stealer!

Well, the first part is true at least...
 
I'm assuming I got their attention a bit ago. So far I haven't been able to find me on there.

Its kinda sad , like super pathetic retard sad , that the member list is played with like it is to keep from showing how many members have left.

I get sarcastically tickled that David has the nerve to call anyone a thief. Stones - glass houses , pot - kettle and all that jazz.
 
I don't see jglass as a member anymore but I did see boxtheif.:rofl:
