    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....

Sponsorship Subscription

Rich contacts you.
I'm curious, though; why pay for a year of sponsorship when that section clearly indicates Sorry, all sponsorship slots have been filled.?
 
I just followed directions on how to sign up to be a sponsor. I didn't notice that the list was full. I figured if I could sign up for it than it must be available. If the list is full, simply put me on the list when someone's subscription ends, or just refund my money. I'm not trying to cause any trouble or confusion it was just a mistake on my part. I apologize and hope we can resolve this
 
Rich handles all that stuff. I'm not sure how often he processes the sponsorships, so you might want to send him a PM.

Your PayPal payment has been refunded and the subscription created has been cancelled. You may want to consider sponsoring the Bearded Dragons Discussion forum as an alternative.

Sorry, but I do not maintain a waiting list for filled sponsorships. When a slot opens up, unfortunately you will just have to be on your toes to keep an eye open for that to happen.

Thanks for wanting to be a sponsor. Sorry the one you wanted is not available at this time.

Oh, btw, the way I am using the subscription code on this site is not as how the programmers intended it to be used. So there are just some things that I cannot do there that would seem logical. For instance, in this case here, you would think I could just close down NEW subscriptions and only accept renewals, but the code doesn't work that way. If I shut the subscriptions down using the existing code, then it also blocks renewals from current sponsors. Not exactly what I would want to do.....
