• 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.....

    =====================


    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....

This guy has nerve and will lie to you and often times will post things he does not have and so fourth. I live in San Diego and originally met this guy on craigslist. He had an ad for a 17 foot scrub python. Supposedly he and his family were relocating to Florida because that is where his wife was being stationed at with the Navy and he could not take his scrub python with him because supposedly you need to have a certain type of permit in Florida. So I struck a deal with him for a unrelated pair of blood pythons for his scrub. He talked a good game and sounded very knowledgeable. I drove over 120 miles that day to meet him, only for me to find out he gave me the wrong address and when I called him he would not pick up and ignored my calls. This wasn't just bad for me, but it was bad for my blood pythons that we're probably stressed from the long ride. I let it go and contacted him about a month later, he pretended to have no memory of that what so ever, but to make up for it he said he would have his wife bring me the scrub python as she was still based down here in San Diego. I scheduled my work around that day and lost some money only for her never to show up and for him again to ignore my calls, he finally responded to an email that I wrote him, giving me the excuse that his son had a toothache and had to go to the dentist, he then tried to b.s. me some more and said he could not answer his phone nor contact me because the dentist didn't allow calls to be made out of the office. He then said I will have my wife bring it this week and I never heard from him again. About three weeks later I see on craigslist a post saying, never trust a person with white lip pythons, I read it and it sounded like the same thing that happened to me, the guy drove over 3 hours and waited and was flaked on. I contacted the guy and sure enough it was Lee as that is what he calls him self, his actual first name is Brian. What I have not mentioned is that the guy is so full of lies, he also claims to do huge business with stores like Triple LLL and many other places, when I asked them they had no idea who he was. He even claimed to be a moderator here on Fauna, and he claimed to be a huge breeder of white lip pythons. This guy is full of B.S., stay away from him, there are plenty of other people on here who have the same reptiles that this guy pretends to have that will not give you the run around!!!

Thanks for your time,

John Jackson
 
Looks like his wife has an account here, too...or he's got an alter ego (I suppose it could be coincidence, and this person is in no way related, but I'm not inclined to believe that). Username "chinacat" shares the same registration IP as oni131, and states in one of her posts (text bolded by me):
I just got back from deployment and i think my husband would like it. Do you have the dimensions? We are currently stationed in SD and can pick them up

Interestingly, she posted in one of his ads...commenting that she had seen them (the snakes) and how bright they were, then made an offer.
