    =====================

    I am still waiting on my developer to finish up on the Classifieds Control Panel so I can use it to encourage members into becoming paying members. Google Adsense has become a real burden on the viewing of this site, but honestly it is the ONLY source of income now that keeps it afloat. I tried offering disabling the ads being viewed by paying members, but apparently that is not enough incentive. Quite frankly, Google Adsense has dropped down to where it barely brings in enough daily to match even a single paid member per day. But it still gets the bills paid. But at what cost?

    So even without the classifieds control panel being complete, I believe I am going to have to disable those Google ads completely and likely disable some options here that have been free since going to the new platform. Like classified ad bumping, member name changes, and anything else I can use to encourage this site to be supported by the members instead of the Google Adsense ads.

    But there is risk involved. I will not pay out of pocket for very long during this last ditch experimental effort. If I find that the membership does not want to support this site with memberships, then I cannot support your being able to post your classified ads here for free. No, I am not intending to start charging for your posting ads here. I will just shut the site down and that will be it. I will be done with FaunaClassifieds. I certainly don't need this, and can live the rest of my life just fine without it. If I see that no one else really wants it to survive neither, then so be it. It goes away and you all can just go elsewhere to advertise your animals and merchandise.

    Not sure when this will take place, and I don't intend to give any further warning concerning the disabling of the Google Adsense. Just as there probably won't be any warning if I decide to close down this site. You will just come here and there will be some sort of message that the site is gone, and you have a nice day.

    I have been trying to make a go of this site for a very long time. And quite frankly, I am just tired of trying. I had hoped that enough people would be willing to help me help you all have a free outlet to offer your stuff for sale. But every year I see less and less people coming to this site, much less supporting it financially. That is fine. I tried. I retired the SerpenCo business about 14 years ago, so retiring out of this business completely is not that big if a step for me, nor will it be especially painful to do. When I was in Thailand, I did not check in here for three weeks. I didn't miss it even a little bit. So if you all want it to remain, it will be in your hands. I really don't care either way.

    =====================
    Some people have indicated that finding the method to contribute is rather difficult. And I have to admit, that it is not all that obvious. So to help, here is a thread to help as a quide. How to become a contributing member of FaunaClassifieds.

    And for the record, I will be shutting down the Google Adsense ads on January 1, 2025.

:rofl::rofl::rofl: are you serious Ed? Best case of "pot calling the kettle black" I have ever seen hahaaha
 
Wow big word for you Ed I am not the liar here

You have your options either Send Medussa back as she was a gift to you and the gift you gave me in the form of Prince will be sent back (I am not happy considering that with how messed up he was on arrival)

Thats a good one, how many dragons have I sold you for resale?

You went crazy when a few people that you plastered with emails to buy wholesale leatherbacks so you could resell them would not sell to you because of all the gossip you were spreading about 99% of the herp world.
 
Whole sale Leather Backs?

Actually I only spoke to two people about that :) And it wasn't for re sale I wanted small groups of unrelated Leather Backs

I spoke to Vicki Daichu and actually Tom Clarke

See I don't make a habit of buying $15 - $25 dragons and flipping them right away for large profits. I take pride in the dragons I produce

You gave me Medusa right after I gave you Ember. Ember is worth 3 times what Medusa is worth.

Dude this is black mail.

Send my Prince back to me and I will give you my sweetheart Medusa. :(
you never cared about the dragons like I did, its was a means of making money to you.

:rolleyes: Ed, gimme a break man -_- stop being sooo hypocritical... just work something out with Nicole(sorry if I spelled your name wrong) and get one out of your 6 or so bad guy threads resolved
 
I almost peed my pants laughing

Money to me? I don't go selling dragons for $1,000's and over breed them like you do you said yourself this is a business to you.


I know a lot of people know this but I will post it here

I not only breed bearded dragons but I rescue them and other herps I do a lot of rehab word and when they are healthy they are adopted at no cost or just the cost of shipping. I also do educational programs at schools and other Youth related places; and during the summer I take some of my dragons to local nursing homes. Yeah really in it for money Ed...Running out of Ideas to try to make yourself look better?

No offence but If I did this for money I would have gotten out of it a long time ago I work with dragons because I love them. You didn't even name your dragons until I got on your butt about it.

My dragons are my kids some time my grandparents ask how their Grand-Kids are (My dragons)


You are required to send Medussa to me First upon Arrival (As long as she is not half dead or worse) I will ship Prince

Send Medussa Monday for Tuesday and Price will go Tuesday for Wedensday

I don't trust you and will not do it any other way

And the "Your Girl" all you ever did was tell me how ugly she was

Are you blind? we have been working it out...you are here as the heckler!
 
What YOU produce? What a joke!! Your first eggs just hatched recently (in past 1-2 weeks) most of the dragons I thought where nice came from Tom!
 
Oh and all those "Inferno" leather backs you did not produce you bought all of the babies and the parents from the guy might want to mention that in your ads along with telling people I produced all the orange babies and Colored Hypos you are selling.

There are no conditions, this is you extorting a free dragon out of me(Medusa). I will send a healthy Medusa to you monday, you will receive her on Tuesday and ship Prince to me Tuesday afternoon.


BTW, you know I like ugly girls.;)

Thank you :) His name is Dusty he can be a real brat at times But I love him actually a bit off topic but I just got this horse tonight she is a bit thin but she will fatten up her name is "Dallas" for short but real name is Zippos Texas Sweetheart :) You can also see me how I look every day not dolled up for classes (I'm a tom boy I hate make up and that)



Ed She looks healthy in the picture she better look like that on arrival; and yes she is my last link to Bow

After she arrives and looks healthy Prince will ship and after that I do not want you contacting me for any reason.


Bow was given to me by a good friend locally (She is a breeder but I don't want to bring her name into it) Sadly I lost Bow for unknown reasons :( a vet did a necropsy on him and could not figure out what happened, I am putting this out there because I know Ed will try to play in on it. :shrug01:
