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.

IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ!! About the Google Adsense ads being displayed

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....

Ok I was wrong, I can admit it. I had him picked for an ex-Navy Seal, and he's just an ex-cop. I took a shot in the dark and I missed, not bad though anyway huh, I was close.

Sergio,
where did I have bad feedback on anything other then the one you just left for me on Reptibid? Your a piece of work, you leave bad feedback for someone who paid the same day an auction ended beacuse I left bad feedback for you because I called you on the poor quality animals you sent.

He said
I addressed the fact that he listed his animals as Het (het ivory sibs) and he got irate and basically told me that he has been breeding since 1966 and I only owed a couple of low dollar animals. He also said that he was some sort of biologist and that I was misinformed about the normal sibs to a het ivory being hets. I tried to be nice in the first post, then he got nasty, so I slammed him with genetics and told him the last thing he would do is school me on balls. He then told me anything I had was purchased by my dad and I will never own more animals than him and I was a scam artist and pissed because he was selling his sibs for less than mine. It was very laughable, so I posted links to my yearling Lesser het hypo and pintripe.
Up until late last night I had no idea there was a post about him on the BOI. When I came in just now I had a private message and here that goes:
Then I remember chatting with this guy (mart8884) last month about my animals and he again tried to school me and tell me what my animals should be sold at and that he would buy them.
Whatever the case, hopefully one more is gone.

After reviewing all proof on Faunaclassifieds I decided that the username 1023 needed to be taken. I suggest that you post all proof that you have in this transaction, Signe.
At this point things look very bad for you and I have no plans to give you your name back. Dont try registering another name because I will find you.
If you truely did nothing wrong then you need to post that proof.

That's what I say when I pull out a dandelion from the garden at the start of every Spring
Good job! You should dedicate this to those that say that the BOI does not work, is a joke, etc.

Careful with that axe...
Actually, Sergio, aka Dr. Geans' father, has been lurking here as well. I saw him viewing this thread earlier, and he now appears to be looking for some fertile ground to sell his wares.

Just for the record.....
This is a continuation of the post that I made earlier. I could not go into a lot of detail because I was at work and did not want to get busted goofing off..
when I opened my mail this morning I was surprised to see an email from Sergio. I am assuming that he just joined on to Fauna last night or this morning after reading the thread at ReptiBid about what was being said here, saw my user ID and decided to contact me, why I don't know, perhaps due to the fact that I am local...???
Anyway here are all the email through my Fauna PM ( I am including them all as a reference in case the post was missed..also I might add, I am not "POSTING FOR ANYONE OR ON ANYONE'S BEHALF..this is ONLY INFORMATION I PERTINENT TO THIS CASE)

You really should go to the thread and post YOUR side of the story as well. That way all Fauna members can hear both sides and draw their own conclusions.
The fact that you have not posted ANYTHING regarding this complaint against you does not help your case. PLEASE go and post your version of the transaction.
I would love to come by and look at your animals. Thank you for the invitation.
Sincerely,
Michele
