    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....

Steve Clark of [email protected] OFF!

picture or contact information

Hi, I would like a picture of this person (Steve Clark), and contact information for him. I am extremely pissed off about him stealing pictures for a couple of reasons.

1. I am apauled that he would post my picture on an ad for sale quoting that he has these animals or has sold these particular animals in the past.

2. That he would associate my name/picture with venomoids!!

3. That someone would intentionally try to rip people off just to make a buck.

Anyway, I will be at Hamburg next month, and I would like to know who I am looking for. I have only heard of him once before, but don't have a clue who he is. Thanks guys for looking out for me, and you will notice that the original picture on my site was copyrighted. I will be pressing a law suit.

Thanks again,

Jeremy Coates
 
Steve is notorious for taking peoples pictures, and using them to make sales. What does he think anyway???


When he originaly ripped me off for the ornate Box turtles, he sent pictures for the so called "sale". The pics are what led me to send him my money. So..... Just two weeks ago, I was poking around for some torts, and came across a website that just so happened to have the same exact pictures that Steve had originaly sent me. Here is the link to the exact photo he used,http://www.1sttechnologies.com/turtles/pastel_box_group.shtml; and the site he stole it from. The pics were not labled with copyright, but the site did say that all pics on it were under copyright laws. I still have not contacted the guy John to inform him of photo theft from his site, that Steve used to rip sombody off with.(Me)

He made a febal attempt at contacting me after this thread was started about him. He kept offering me "De-venomized" Hots in trade for the $700.00

I told him I did not want anything besides money or something with a REAL re-sale value. He stopped emailing me, or replying to Instant Messages when he is online.


I still do not know what to do.


let me think....................
 
i wonder if this was ever resolved:) 7 years later and i was getting some good reading material here;) gets me goin reading stuff like this.
