    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....

i notice they sell crickets for 25 shipped which is a few bucks cheaper than flukers,has anyone ordered from them as i might start to order from them soon.
 
Well he just got started selling crickets this December, and he says he has had over 1000 orders already.

So if you figure about 2-3 % of people will leave feedback, that would be about 20-30 people who should be coming here soon.
 
they advertise on my site and run some pretty good offers, one of my admins ordered crickets from them and sais it was a good shipment. I personally havent ordered any yet. I always place at least 2 orders from anyone advertising on my site so I can add them to the vendors who go the distance or buyer beware pages. so far only 1 on the buyer beware and thats West Coast Roaches. I ordered several times no problems, then i placed an order for 2 thousand medium and large dubias and recieved 1/2 while they basically fell off the map

That is odd. I am still here.
 
The picture below was posted in a forum on facebook on Dec 23 2011.

I have like 24 sales and currently have more feedback than he does. Where are all the feedback for his 1000 orders.

The picture below is Alek giving me the definition to Feret and ferreting. Then he says he was me on tegu talk. Keep track of the order it was in. Because he will probably come on and claim that he compared himself to me BEFORE he knew what it meant. Also you can see he says Bobby through (threw) in free animals for him on his order.

again you will see Alek claim that bobby (Varnyard) threw in some free animals because he did such a good job on tegutalk

Now lets see this expert who gave tons of advice. Lets see what it is that he got free animals for
picture.php


I wish I can get free animals for my 25 posts.

I wonder what bobby (Varnyard) has to say about this
 
well as you can see in the pictures above. He claimed he will recieve FREE animals.


Here he is just minutes ago saying that he never claimed the items would be free.

will the lying ever stop?
 
One last attempt at lying by saying it was a misprint. I guess he also forgot that he also told it to me repeatedly face to face.

Then finally a little bit of an admittance.
picture.php
 
I worked hard on tegu talk, not once was i offered anything at all (a shirt, sticker,tegu etc) for free
 
And to pretend I did not already know the truth... I placed a call to Bobby Hill.
his words are. "That guy is full of crap. I do not even know him"
 
That was really wrong to bring bobby into this. Well here is my deposit to bobby. I will not show e-mail discussions out of respect for Bobby Hill.

1. I did not bring Bobby into this. YOU did.

2. What is this supposed to prove? That even though you were an expert and gave tons of advice on tegutalk and sent bobby $500 he STILL does not know you? Okay. Mission accomplished. Like I told you. You are not that big. And when fauna admins gave you a warning point.... it isn't because they were trying to keep you down because you were big time with your two sales.

3. What about the free animals Bobby is supposedly going to send you. Was that a blown up work story people tell at the drinking fountain? Was it still a blown up work story when you decided to type it? What about when you said it was a misprint? What was it then? A misprinted blown up story?

4. What about your 1000 orders in the month of December. Was that a blown up story? Was it a blown up story when you decided to type it as well.

I have warned you over and over about your "blown up work stories" and your misprints and your lies. Whoops my bad. You do not lie. In your own words You just "embelish the truth" but you never lie.

You claim Xidragons cheated "many" people. Where are this "many" people? Or was that simply a lie to get me on your side so I would help you with whatever you wanted to do to them?

This is why I do not like facebook. People are now wondering what is going on. They have no clue about the lies you have been telling. They have no clue you have been PMing people and pitting people against each other so you can accomplish whatever it is you were after.

I will give you this. you were very smart for REFUSING to take it to fauna. I really don't have much.

It is okay. More people will catch on to you sooner or later.
 
Are you freakin kidding me right now Alek? I just realized. You posted paypal to show you are what?

I announced that I had boas born. Shortly after I announce the birth of my boas, I get the message in the picture
picture.php


I can read through the lines. It is a gift of mine. Specially since a couple of days later, I posted that the boas died and you said "I was counting on those". So I know what your message to me meant. Any dunce can see that.

So you tell me you are having financial problems. It turns out you have been buying animals left and right. Thank you for adding a nail to your own coffin.

Oh yeah. I just realized. In the pictures I posted yesterday..... you say Bobby was holding animals for you without a deposit. I thin you just posted proof to the contrary. :yesnod:
 
Ritchie, I want to thank you for doing this. My direction was clouded and I am very sorry. I will take full responcabilty for the embelishments. I also want to apologise for my stupid reactions, to not trusting people. This week I have learned a great lesson. 1. it sucks being a admin of a facebook page. 2. I forgot what this hobby is all about. I should of stayed focus for the love as you once told me and have fun doing it instead of letting it run my life. I have abiiger focus right now and that is my famiy. Once again. I apologise Ritchie. And, good luck with your ventures.


Respectfully.
 
Our relationship will be "we work at the same place". We will be professional and cordial. That is it. Nothing else.

You keep “thanking” me. You keep apologizing to me. But nothing ever changes. I am seriously tired of addressing your embellishments. It comes second nature to you. Sometimes I think you believe the poop that comes out of your own mouth. One of these days someone is going to be affected financially by your embellishments. You know what happens after that? It comes to the BOI as a bad guy thread.

I address your “embellishments” privately and the first thing you do is ask “who put you up to this”.
I address your “embellishments” publicly and the first thing that comes out of your mouth is a lie. For example. I did not know I was kicked out of the BOI. That was news to me.

You say Bobby Hill is sending you gifts. You tell people it was just a misprint. Well what about the words when they came out of your mouth?

Around the 26th of December we had a big discussion about you not being this big expert on tegutalk. We had a big discussion that you only had 25 posts. We had a big discussion that you were only a member for 3 months. Do you remember that?
 
With all due respect to the parties involved, I see a feud developing here with no real context behind what's been going on. The arguments do not correspond with the question of the original poster of this BOI thread, yet I do believe they are relevant to the BOI if you can explain your problems adequately. Ritchie and Alek, can you please give us a summary of what this debate is about with a timeline attached? I can't be the only one completely lost here. Thanks.
