• 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....

You read the whole thread and only understood "not responding" as the sole reason of the ban. Perhaps a reread of the thread might help. P.S. Welcome to Fauna. Great first post for a brand new user.
 
Hmmm - which Roger Smith are you? Feel free to PM me, if you don't want to post identifying details.
 
what are you talking about.

Sorry, but I do not allow registrations via anonymous proxies when I become aware of them. When I was actively auditing new registrations by checking IP addresses, I would reject all registrations out of hand immediately.

There is just too much likelihood that you are either someone who is banned from this site, or else someone who is here solely to stir the pot anonymously and using the anonymous proxy is to maintain that secretive nature of your membership. Sorry, but if you want to be anonymous, this just is not the site for you. If you wish to re-register using a bonafide IP, then you are welcome to do so. But honestly you WILL be under quite a bit of scrutiny.
 
Hi Rich and Harald It only takes a minute to re register.
Elvis the king says do not ban Ray Capaldi or Roger Smith.
Hey Bobby you are gonna make one hell of a moderator.
You are goose stepping right in line just like the rest of them.
Heil Zuchowski later Rich your friend always Ray Capaldi

And it takes even less time to ban you Ray. Go ahead, give the moderators something to do. And I suppose this makes you think it paints you in some sort of glorious light too, eh?
