• 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.....

    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....

Bad Guy Robert Collett

I'm not looking to exacerbate or continue this situation; Robert quickly corrected the shipping problem.

I have my snake.


I have no more complaints.

As far as I'm concerned, this is resolved. Robert came through for me in the end, and I'm happy that he did so.

The snake is eating and appears to be healthy.

Thank you.

But here's the thing, Robert says you were lying about some of the claims you made that may have the effect of impacting his reputation. If neither of you posts evidence, then readers who might do business in the future with either of you may feel both of you are suspect.

Both of you have the emails, so the possibility that others might consider one or the other of you suspect must be fine with both of you.
 
Yay!!

I don't suppose we'll ever be privy to all the itty bitty details of this transaction if both parties are now relatively whole and quietly retreating. Or know if it was pressure from this wonderful board or simply time's miraculous journey and the kinks getting worked out.

In any case, I am glad that she received what she paid for. Buyer has snake. Seller got payment. Didn't go unicorns and glitter smooth, but hopefully life goes on for both parties.

Another BOI win.
