    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....

THE SNAKE PIT WAS BURGLARIZED *AGAIN* LAST NIGHT!!

First off, Kevin you really have no place here. you are so full of hate because Neil ran you out of business, that you are not talking with the head on your shoulder and apparantly the one that you are talking with is WAY TOO SMALL, not much of a man are you? You are upset that Neil proved that he is a better man then you, Tell me again, who still has a business up and running. You stated that you wanted the Snake Pit out of business, see where greed gets you!!!
 I want you to know that on my last message I stated that I really loved this family and wanted to know where it went. Neil was the only one to email me back letting me know that the family is still there but just going through a hard time right now. He stopped all to email ME, to comfort me when I thought we lost one another. He showed me he cared about this family and that all would be right and not to give up. Not once did he ever stray from the worry that had me upset. He was dealing with the issue at hand that I had. I cannot say that about anyone else here. I could care less what someone has done previous in life, to some it makes them a better person. Please, I am begging you, lets go back to a more pleasant time. I would hate for a new comer to reptiles to come on this thread and see all the bull that is flying. We are adults!!! Lets start acting like it.
 To Neil, I want to thank you very much for taking time with me and comforting me when I was ready to run.  

Thanks and have a good night

Wow...So that many people think your an ok guy Neil???

So after all those promises to prove it everyone now we await "Daddys response"...So he holds the answers now?
Did he call Miss Cleo?  He can say what he wants, but you've proven yourself to be a liar over and over again!

You are the biggest loud mouth on here, but when the tough questions are put to you....Guess what...They go unanswered.

Your arrogant and your store was a slum before your hired Angie.  What does that say about you.  Poor animals.
Thank god for Angie or they'd still be "slumin" it up!

At your age (50) your parents have to keep bailing you out???
Cant get a loan to buy the store yourself? Why?
Something you are not telling us??? At 50 you should be able to stand on your own 2 feet...But you cant!
How did that Laser eye surgey go anyways?

If nothing is ever proven with regards to the burglary one thing is now know to all...YOU ARE A LIAR!

BTW...Nice site...The tripod pop-ups are awesome!

Ritchie...every time you open your mouth...you sink lower and lower....don't go there??? Yeah, right! I'll say it again so you can hear me!! YOU ARE A DIGRACE TO ALL THE ARMED FORCES!! Did you catch it that time??? I knew quite a few people that either died in Vietnam or died in 9-11...I wouldn't put you anywhere NEAR their stature! And the way you type and spell tells me A LOT about your education, or lack thereof! The MEN that I knew in the Military would NEVER believe gossip...I can just see you on the front lines when Osama calls you over to tell you some accusations...wow, they must be true! He said them...I heard him say them! Man, the U.S. better answer my questions, or else! Yeah, right! Do you have any idea how ridiculous you sound??? You want to believe Dave without one shred of proof or even evidence??? What the hell's wrong with you, man!! Are you that blind, or are you just so deep into flaming me, you can't see straight??? You used to be one of the good guys who we could count on to ferret out the scam artists....but, look at yourself...your ego is getting the best of you! Take a MIDOL and calm down before you go down in flames!! ...Remember...keep your mouth shut and let people think you're an idiot, or open it up, and leave them NO DOUBT!! ...Neil
 
Neil... SAY IT AS IT IS!!!! My daddy serves the armed forces for thirty four years and Ritchie he would be disgusted by you. You of all people should know what being an American is!!!  You really have no idea do you???
 I need no attacks, I just know a true American when I see one. You really need to read the American Constitution again.
Good night to all
Irene Olier
 
Neil did you serve for your country???

If not, shut the F%&$ UP!



Devon Smith
 
Devon...to answer your question....My Lasik Eye Surgery went as well as YOUR Frontal Lobotomy!! I still can't see, and you're still an idiot!!
I guess that makes TWO from the "flock" heard from so far...any of you other members want to "baaa" in?? ....Neil
 
Neil, shouldn't you be busy planning the next robbery for your store?  Wait a minute, go cry to daddy, he will fix it for you.
 
Note to self:  Don't do business with Ritchie, Devonrep, or KevinOrford.  Bitter, angry, resentful people.  

Do you guys realize how childish and foolish you are all making yourselves out to be? How many other impartial observers do you think you've alienated?  Just by your attitudes, I am rooting for Neil in all of this, how can I not?  

I'm glad that the herp world is nice and big, and there are plenty of honest, pleasant people out there to do business with.

Oppps...You FORGOT (see im giving you an excuse)
to answer the other more important questions...

At your age (50) your parents have to keep bailing you out???
Cant get a loan to buy the store yourself? Why?
Something you are not telling us??? At 50 you should be able to stand on your own 2 feet...But you cant!

Oh yeah...Were you in the military Neil???
I mean Richie is a disgrace so you were a???
Anyone who serves this country should be thanked.
I suspect you are not one of them.  Was it becausr you were in jail for the drug thing?  -See helping you out with another excuse.

Why am I an Idiot??? Cuz I know your a scum bag and you dont like hearing that?

Sorry

Devon Smith  

ps I-R-E-N-E ...what does your father think of liars?
 
Hi All!
 I think a few people here need to get back on the subject and quit the nastiness.  It really amazes me (and others I'm sure&#33<img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> how a bunch of unproven GOSSIP can get everyone at each others throats!  Not much of what was pulled into this barking match was/has been proven, not to mention all the other statements and accusations being made that are not pertinent to the situation at hand.  Yet, we see people here that were friends many PAGES ago going back and forth stooping to levels we know are beneath them.  
 Who are we???  as people to accuse and judge people on unproven heresay??  Noone can stand with their hand on a bible and state they have never lied about something or other.  Just because you told a lie or were confused in remembering something and stated something you thought was right at the time, it doen't make you a criminal.
 I have stated before, and I'll say it again, I can't imagine Neil would do sometihng like he's being accused of and then come here to start a post to make it public record.  Why would he do it, what can be gained??  Say what you will, it just doesn't add up.  
 Last but not least, who do the police have as their suspects?  So many people here think they know/can find out anything, answer that one...  And my final thought...  Why is it in todays wonderful world, when one is accused of something, be it here or pretty much anywhere, one has to violently defend thier character, honor, name, and most of all their innocence???  Where do we live??
 
My daddy HATES liers but then he would need proof that they were, that is the American way.
Kevin you are a nothing, not even worth the time of day and why would I waste a dime on you with a phone call.
You are starting to sould like your "head" is even smaller then your last message. Please quit while you are ahead. You sound so very foolish, keep going and you will prove that you are the FOOL!!! I do not know Neil, never met him BUT I do believe in him (My opinion)

Since we love quotes so very much...

The reason you do not see a lot of people posting on here asking Neil the questions that Rich is asking is for two reasons.

1. Rich is like a pit bull. Once he gets a purpose he is non-stop. Rich feels that Neil lied to him and takes it personal because he donated money to help Neil out. I'm curious was he a moron when he donated to help you out, Neil? How many people do you need to come on here asking for clarification of the mis-remembered facts from Neil? All of which won't be answered.

2. I have been hesitant to post on this thread as it has gotten very personal in tone. I am sure there are others, buying and selling customers for some of us, that are also hesitant to post as this is getting ugly. I think Ben was very accurate when he pointed out that Neil and Dave have worsened their reputations by their postings on this thread.

Neils take on gossip and the military is from one that was never in. I did my time and it was funny how the rumor mill worked overtime. We used to stand at the back of chow line and comment loudly "Wonder if the operation will be over by Friday". Two hours later we would hear from another source "Hey, the guys at HQ are saying we going to the rear on Friday". Never failed. Being in the military does not make you pure as the driven snow, but rather shows your respect for the opportunities this country gives us by giving up a period of your life. In the military I knew psychos, derelicts and great people, all of which served with honor.

Neil is very vague on his remembering facts. Those that got burned by donating money to him feel it this "vagueness" was on purpose and deliberate. Those that believe him just feel he's mentally scattered. Which, if any, would you want shipping an animal to you?
 
Keith, I respect your opinion...

I actually havent posted since the old BOI, but this mess was so insane I had to say something.  

I root for the underdogs, not Liars!

If you read this thread you will see he has lied countless times and attributed it ALL to memory loss when caught and only then.  

I'm sorry...No way am I buying this guy is ok or a good guy...NO WAY...Nothing can change that!

How many people needed to hold your hand on that post?

Neil I am of simple mind.   You are the great one.
perhaps you can help me....I forgot  a certain word.  I need help remembering it.

You know the word that says....if your arguement is really really weak....attack the person isntead.

Because frankly....you did a fine job of showing us an example of that word...

Thank you..It shows you have nothing on me.
All you have on me is I am an a$$hole.
Actually you thought I was the greatest until I started asking you questions.

But then again I could be wrong....Because you wrote over and over again that dave was your GOOD friend...then you e-mail me that he is not.

So it shows too faces of Neil.
Also Neil writes me hey buddy this and hey buddy that.  Gee Neil...I did not know you felt all that inside.

As for me..I never lied to you.  I might question you...but my "feelings" for you are always in print.  TRUE I think you lied...But hey..I am not going to say to your face how great you are and hold deep seated feelings inside.  Just more proof of
1.  The weakness of your arguements.
2.  The two faces of Neil



Yes we were able to take the attention away from Neil and focus on someone else.  So Neil  You say I atuomatically believe the rumors.  I gues I NEVER defended you BLINDLY?

Keith....i am being childish because I am asking questions
Neil is being an adult because he is calling people names?  That makes sense  You say I am bitter?  sheesh you better read Neil's post again.  You must have confused his post with mine.  because I have not called him names...welp except for one..Liar
