    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....

Pretty interesting deal - but I'm not sure what it's for and how to check it. i see I have 19 reputation points, but for the life of me, I can't figure if that's good or bad.

I'm sure it's obvious, but I'm missing it.

I enjoy the new look!!
 
It's a new toy to play with. So play with it until you figure out what it does..... :)
 
I love toys....see my post above to see what I have puzzled out about it so far.......

Ok . . .

. . . On one post of mine, when I clicked on it - Your reputation on this post is "extremely Positive".

When I rate a post - it says I can rate it either positive or negative.

Hmmm.

I've been leaving some posts on the comment line, are some of you getting them?
 
ok bells and whistles are nice aannd all but i think that have a feedback rating a point system for us bad people (we have points so we are bad) and now this reputation thing is going a bit over board.... if the intent of the point system was to not have some effects on your reputation, it does.. so now why make a reputation thinie to get peoples approval on how you make post. say your spelling sucks or whatever i mean come on it's a bit much
 
Surely that is not the first time that thought occurred to you, to describe me..... :D
 
its a way in which all the people whom approve your post in a thread can "smack you on the tookus" (like in football) and give you that oh so confident feeling we all need. it makes us feel special and our butt tingle
 
and i think it adds points everytime you post or maybe everytime you post in a particular thread. so if i am giving out bad advice or do not know what i am talking about my reputation may increas? cool.... i know me and overton and monte and all can talk about nothing quite lengthy
 
Robin you are funny. BTW I have never seen you give out bad reptile advice, it seems like you know your subject quite well.
 
Overton just wants the tingly butt sensation....

You know they have medication for that....
I can talk about nothing alot too...
Robin your advice is great and you are always blunt and to the point. I like that. No fluffy bunny crap to get through...
 
Shannan! I was going to give you a negative rep, but when I was doing it the little box came up it was already on "positive" and I was to lazy to move the little green dot so I just left it there!.......but other than that I'm giving you a double brat triple green dot dittaly-do! OK?
 
Well y'all feel free to throw any unwanted positive points my way. I have issues too, but they are **very** popular issues lol.....Or at least the visitors to the Lonely Hearts forum think so.
Robin thanx for your 12 days of xmas post there...
 
Overton just wants the tingly butt sensation....

i like that tingly butt thing too, so overtons not alone however i dont want to touch overton's butt especially having those big chompers and all... he would bite the hand that smacked him
 
OK! THATS IT! I've taken just about enough on my two toofs! I will be forced to give you a dis-aproval!!! (if I could only figure this darn thing out?)
Where is that little green button?
 
"smack you on the tookus" (like in football)

I was wondering where that hand mark came from ;-)

Damn, I did not realize I bruise that easily!
