• 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....

Inquiry Tara Reed, Traverse City Michigan.

While I am not defending Tara in any way, shape, or form, especially if she indeed did sell geckos in that condition....it bothers me when folks say that her lack of response leaves us no choice but to believe that she is an awful and terrible person. This is the first time in over a week that I have been here, and I believe it was a couple of weeks before that I was here previously. Apparently, there have been a couple of folks trying to get ahold of me online in that time frame as well, but if I don't get online, I don't know. Sometimes life happens, and we have other things going on. It certainly doesn't have to mean we are avoiding things....

Has Sean tried calling her? Chuck did the work for him and found phone numbers and such.

The only problem with your statement is she does have animals for sale currently, so how are people to contact her if she does not go online, if someone posted on her ad, she would get an email, right? So I don't believe it is possible she does not know, maybe I don't understand how that works when an add is posted and someone replies?

So its your belief as well that Special Ed didn't actually start this thread as a legitimate inquiry for himself, but rather he started it as an offering point for Sean to share his experience because Sean cant comprehend the rules.

I can't say one way or the other if Ed posted in his own interest, or to assist Sean. What I know is that Sean posted several threads which were deleted, or closed to allow him to copy/paste...and that Ed posted a response to the BOI thread before I locked it. MY impression - strictly due to the timing - was that Ed was helping Sean get started.
I understand your points, Chuck, and I agree that Sean has been less than forthcoming with anything that actually links those images to Tara. He has been asked a number of times to post the email exchanges between them, & has neglected to do so. Barring any response from Tara, though, his version of the story - such as it is - is all we have to go by.
