• In the past two days I have gotten emails asking about being requested to provide credit card info in order to register and also to make a post in the classifieds forums. PLEASE NOTE: In no instance will this site ask you for this sort of information. The only time any request for payment is made is if you choose to opt-in for a higher membership level, and that is done SOLELY through PayPal. Anything else is coming from a source other than this site. My guess is that this is coming through Google Adsense, but when I can get someone to send me a screen shot of this sort of request, I will know more.
  • 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.

This just rubbed me the wrong way

I got this reply in a PM regarding some animals I have listed.

I will take them if this is a legit add

This just comment just really got under my skin.
Click my trader rating. Check the BOI. I have never posted a scam ad.
 
They be low rent shoppers of the list from Craig most likely
Fish Tanks and heat rocks await the animals you sell them . . . . .;)
 
I agree. The fact that they didn't take the time to actually learn the difference between "add" and "ad" irks me too. "Add" is a mathematical operation, "ad" is an advertisement. I'd pass, especially since I don't think you're offering many lower-end animals right now? Could be a disaster in the making.
