    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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 Truth Obout The BOI!!!!

That has been the trend lately.  Kind of sad how so many people are just trying to stir things up in recent weeks.
 
Kevin a.k.a. Gambino,

Ok well you started this thread and posted your opinions now lets see the proof of your accusations?  I am sure everyone else would like to see it as I know I would.
 
Thank you Rob, you reminded me of another point I was trying to make.  On the BOI you do not need proof, just opinions, acquisitions, friends and a fast computer.  Rob i am sorry you are taking this so personally,  In my last post i stated i was merely using you and Neil as examples of what can happen on the BOI when someone post about you.


Kevin Jacobson
 
So in other words, this entire thread is a farce and a waste of bandwidth?  I didn't see anyone jumping on Niel and Rob about the quality of their animals because of your accusation.  Does this meean that your assessment of this board is incorrect?
 
What i'm saying, is there are a lot of clicks on the BOI and if you dont go along with the rest of the gang they are going to mob you.  My point has been proven in this thread.
 
OK.  Let me make sure I have this straight.


You make an accusation against a few people.  You also say taht people who do not have first hand dealings should not post.  You say taht if a person posts, they should have proof.

You are asked for proof.  You provide no proof.  

All of a sudden, this thread has somehow proven your point?  


I think I missed it.

You probably missed it cause you added your 2 cents and thats probably all you had.

Can't anyone remain professional?  

I actually didn't add my two cents.  I simply asked some questions, none of which, I might add, have been answered.  Is it really necessary to insult people?  Think about it.  Just what did that accomplish other than to make you look infantile and to tarnish your credibility?

Neil is so much a part of the gang he was banned from posting here. Some people here might be friends but that doesn't mean they get special treatment. Your point failed miserably.

why did you just register on October 19th and then post this thread. I though you said you have been around a long time?

Also can someone let me know what groups there are because I don't belong to any yet and feel left out. LOL

Just a trouble maker here.
 
I love this, in a week's time 2 people have come to the BOI, made up false stories and flung false accusations about me and then after being asked for proof say taht it was all just to make a point. Where do these people come from?  I am pretty sure this person will get banned the same as the last one did.
 
Hey guys...Everyone knows that i never post in these soap opera #### posts..((sorry)) Neil,,i have dealt with you,,and was happy..Rob,,,never dealt with you,YET!!! Stop replying,,and maybe this guy will go away....Sometimes,,people to get jumped on..Sometimes its justifiable,,sometimes not,,but who gives a crap!!!! You cant make everyone happy..

No sense in replying back at me,,,i wont be wasting my time with this post any more,,,,i have a life!!!!

It shows you how much this board means to him.
He is complaining about this board and its members.

And yet he decided to join just so he can complain.

If I did not like a company or its members......I would not join that company.
 
I havent posted a whole lot here probably because of a lot of what kevin said.   For a lot of people reading this(such as myself) who like to try to find out info on people and make good use of it, it seems that there is almost a click going on and if you jump in somewhere not part of it you are immediately ripped apart.   And this is not just me, its a lot of people in the herp community that i talk with that like to do some reading but dont want to post because of how this forum can get.   And its the same people involved over and over and the same people that seem to make yourself want to think....."I wonder how bad I will get ripped if i post something", lol.   Seriously thats how this can get and those that post on here alot may not see it because they are into it so much.   Again, I think that this can be a very valuable aid in researching, but sometimes can also cause a lot of harm and headaches for alot people.   I'm not sure if thats along the lines of what kevin is saying, but I know for sure thats how myself and others feel about this board.

My my, doesn't it sound a lot like Robert Kirk (poolsharkmd) is back among us?  Same basic MO, it seems.

Anyone see any reason to keep this thread here?  Nothing of any substance has been said in the several pages this thread has taken up.
 
This is one of the funniest thing i have read in a while. Yes your more than welcome to your opinion like everyone else is but let me ask u this have you ever bought a reptile from either of them. All i have heard is good things about Rob @RKreptiles and yes sometimes Neils prices may be alittle high but it's his store and he has the right to price his reptiles how he wants. Some of Neils stuff might be high but if you don't like it don't buy if. In the past Neil had some poor looking reptiles but for a different reason. The last time I was there was about 3 months ago and everything looked good to me.

i can't belive this im sticking up for Neil again thats 2 times this week lmao.
