• 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....

Why is this name sounding alarms?

I got a new subscriber to my email today by the name Scott Black. For some reason this seems like a name that I thought was part of a earlier thread. If someone knows any info on this person I would greatly appreciate it.
 
I bet you are thinking of Gene Black. The name Scott Black sounds familiar also, have you done a search for him here?
 
It's me

Hi there, this is the Scott Black that subscribed to your email. I ghosted these forums a while back, stopped for a while, then just within the past couple of days, started posting. I hope nothing was said about me...I didn't ever post anything!!! Probably just a mistaken identity or something of the like. Sorry for any confusion.
 
No apologies necessary Scott. I hope you will understand that there are some shady people out there. I remembered something about a Black doing some shady things so I was investigating that. I care for all of my geckos and don't want to see them mistreated.
 
If I rember the story right he buys geckos and resells them/flips them. I think he also uses other peoples pics of animals he doesn't own. What was the website you bought them from?
 
it was on the kingsnake.com classifieds.... and he was under the name of joanne... i bought them thru email but we havent done the shipping yet...
