    Sorry about the strictness of this requirement, but it is necessary to block spammers and scammers at the door as much as possible.

Rules

That is because the offending posts have been removed. That, and posting obscenities, and spam, is the only case in which posts disappear, here. If a person chooses to become a contributing member, they can be restored.
 
I'm into the ones I've seen you post up Lavender. Man they are really cool. Can you email me your phone number. I can ride down and talk to you this afternoon. These folk's don't seem to be real nice to you. Looks like some folk's might be jealous to me.

Of course they want me to pay to see what they are on your butt about. Which makes no sense what so ever. But anyway I don't care about all this mess. I just want to see those things in person.
 
I can't believe they would treat someone knew like they have you. I wonder what they have in store for me? LOL I hope they are a little nicer to me than they have been you. Of course they already have their hand out for money. Wanting me to pay to see the truth of why they are one your butt so hard. If it was the Expo thread. I saw that earlier. They didn't delelte it till I mentioned something on this thread. So something ain't exactly up to snuff.

Maybe you should quit trying to stir up trouble.

There isn't any big Conspiracy here.

There is a rule. You cannot offer animals for sale unless you are a contributing member, period.

If one isn't a member, and finds out they can't post in the For Sale section, they may think they can get around the rule by posting pics in the photo section and saying "Hey, BTW, this snake is for sale!" Or by saying, "Hey, I'll be at Repticon, stop by and see if I have anything you want! I'll have a booth there!"

Now I don't believe Mr. Lavender intentionally broke the rule. But some people do, and that is why there is an infraction system in place, to deter people from doing so.

So Rich has his hand out for money. How many thousands of dollars do you think it takes to run this site? The storage required is massive. We are allowed to post UNLIMITED photographs. Storing them takes a ton of space. Rich has to PAY someone to handle the server issues. No one is REQUIRED to become a contributing member. If you want to sell animals here without becoming a member you are free to purchase advertising for the monumental cost of 50 cents a day. But for those of us that would LIKE to support this site that we love and call home, $25/year buys some perks. And one of those perks is free For Sale ads.

Way to make a great first impression...

Just my 2 cents here, but as far as I can tell, nobody has their hand out for money. It does cost money to run this forum however. So the option is open for a person to contribute if they want to help the forum to keep running. If they want to do that, they get certain perks. They are allowed to advertise their animals for sale and edit their posts. Someone who wants to advertise their animals for sale can't be allowed to do it for free, as it steps on those of us who are paying for that right. It is only $25 for a whole year, not exactly millions to be make running this thing you know!

The owner of this site is retired now, and on a fixed income. This forum should not be costing him money out of his own pocket to run at this point. That is why some of us here step up to help. This place has given so much to me that I want it to always be here. If you don't like the owner's rules, you don't have to stay. But don't come into his house, raid his refrigerator and crap on his rug and expect to be welcomed with open arms!

Sure, the rules might have been a bit clearer. But the vast majority of us joined this site and got by without making any waves at all. And dragging this out over and over again really is quite counter productive and is not showing the ones involved in the best light.
 
It doesn't take thousands of dollars to run a forum. I have one myself been up for a few years now. I can do all the things there you do here. That's a lie and you and I both know it. I am a Boa Constrictor breeder. I am getting into Colubrids because I am worried about the bans. You talk about my first impression. You should be in my shoes getting my first impression of ya'll.

Well then maybe you should just consider toddling back on over there....
I honestly don't care what your first impression is, you don't crap on someone elses rug when you enter their house.
If that analogy escapes you, there is nothing I can do for you.
 
All I asked was what was the deal that started all this. Then you tell me I have to pay to see a post. That I just looked at moments before you posted the comment. Your covering your own tracks and you know it. I came here to learn. But when I see how you folk's treated him. I wanted to see what the deal is here.
 
You can't pay to see his post. It has been deleted...nobody can see it now. If Lavender becomes a contributing member, his post (accidental ad) could be reinstated. Nobody asked for money from you...

I just was about to say the same thing.
Oh well.. Back to my chair and popcorn.

WOW and wow it appears at least one mod and some people are trying to approach this nicely. If one owns something a website or a book whatever they can make rules about how it can be used, end of subject. You Redneck Herps are really stirring up things that are better left alone. Many are interested in Lavenders snakes and evened awed by them.
Also the thread was deleted long before you posted, so as Nanci said no big conspiracy to not allow you access.
 
I don't need to pay to see it. I already have and I also copied it.

Southern Exotic Reptile Expo. Cullman AL. At the civic center. Michael and Brandi McDonald are the host. You can find them on facebook. October 22 23.
If my tesseras don't sell before then, I'll have them there. Yall come if you can. Especially you local folks.

Lavender (accidently) put up an ad he was not allowed to.
It was deleted.
It is gone.
The kind of ad that Lavender (accidently) put up is an ad that can only be posted by contributing members. Lavender is not a contributing member, so that is why it is deleted.
That is why you can't see it.
I am a contributing member and I can't see it either.
It went bye-bye.

Please consider doing the same.....
 
Gee it magically re appeared.

Yes but they didn't delete it until after I asked about it. So someone was trying to hide the truth. That shows distrust right off the bat. With me being new. What am I supposed to think?

I may be wrong here, but I just saw you post an ad that has been deleted by a mod. You knew in advance that this ad was not to be posted on this site, and you go and post it again and again?
Dumb move, FELLA.
