Howdy Folks

It's been a while since I have posted here. A couple of years I think. I look forward to getting into some nice and friendly chit chat with each and every one of the other members here.

Take Care,

Well hello brian/damon/josh/hannable and the plethora of other aliases you've used in the past, including the female personas you were using on fauna.


Did you know that it was against the rules here to register under any name other than your own?

Do you even REMEMBER what your given name is?

Did you have your "wife" sign up? Hi tawny, IF you even exist.

Folks, this guy is a liar and a swindler of the highest order.

Made any death threats lately?

Any one even REMOTELY considering doing ANYTHING with this company needs to do a search over on Fauna.

Hello Wes,

This place is supposed to be about positive, friendly, family orientated, non-abusive posting. Why do you feel the need to attack me here? Or anywhere for that matter. I have never done anything to you and yet you feel the need to slam me and my business and even my wife incessantly? I have never swindled a soul in my life and you are way out of line making such a false statement. Why don't you keep that ridiculous soap opera negativity on fauna and let the members here live without your senseless negativity and hate.

I will not respond to any more of your posts. You are nothing more than a trouble maker.

It's interesting how the very site you mention, Fauna, is the one, one of several if I recall correctly, that the facts of your lies are forever saved for those who may fall victim to your gilded tongue.

You're a bad guy, whatever your name is currently, a very very bad guy.

This is a nice site. A very very nice site.

See where I'm going with this?

Okay, with a little help from the website admins I got my old account back up and running.

Here we go folks, let's have some great herp chat!

Be sure to check out our website to see the World's Only Pastel Ceylonese Pythons. They are totally AWESOME!!

Thanks,

What's the difference between your pastel phase and half pastel phase ceylonese pythons? The pastel you have is gorgeous.

Hi RKO,

Thanks for the nice compliment. They are simply out of this world in person and are quite difficult to photograph to any degree of accurate color representation.

The only difference between Half Pastel Ceylonese and Full Pastel is that the full Pastels have two Pastel parents. The Half Pastels have one Pastel parent and one normal parent. The reason why this is very relevant is because the offspring from two Pastel parents may very well become Super Pastels when they experience their change. We just don't know yet. It's still only a theory at this point in time. But then, so were the Pastels that we have now three years ago. Those that are parented by one Pastel parent and one normal parent become like the ones in the pictures there.

Thanks for your question,
David Beauchemin

I can't go to fauna myself but if anyone would care to do me a favor there are a few threads over there that show what kind of scum this guy really is.

I also find it amusing that he's been using the "they don't photograph" well line for as long as he's been selling.

With over 300 breeders it's amazing that only one person that I know of has EVER said anything good about this guy.

Of course david/brian/josh/hannibal lector, DID have a large deposit in hand with no snake delivered when this happened and I THINK the guy making the purchase said that had he known what kind of scum brain/damon/josh/david/hannible WAS, he would never have made the purchase to begin with.

brian/damon/josh/david, and seriously about 30 other aliases, is a TRULY bad guy. He's wanted in Az. for illegally transporting animals across state lines. He never showed up for court when he got busted with alligators on his move east.

He's just not a good guy at all.

I'll toy with people and tease them and let them show themselves for what they are, which he will do shortly. but I rarely feel the need to speak so plainly and adamantly about anyone.

I feel the need with this guy. He makes us ALL look bad when you know what he truly is.

He, many-named scumbag, weren't you going to sue me at one time? For lible and slander and all kinds of things? I reckon your lawyer told you that for you to win I would have to be lying and that since I was telling the truth and YOU were the one lying it would not work out in your favor.

Is that why you never sued me? I mean aside from being a coward of course.

I thought you guys were banned from posting on this site....

I honestly can't believe that such unfounded, blatant attacks on someone, anyone, is allowed in this forum or any other family-based forum for that matter.

For this person to just come here and state matter-of-factly that I am "Scum", that I am a "Scammer", and that I am a "Swindler of the highest order", without one shred of proof or evidence, is beyond belief. What,.. because he says it is so, it is? What, because him and his buddies on fauna say it is so, then it is true?

Why doesn't someone ask him to provide just ONE name of just ONE single person that I or my company has ever wronged, or sold a sick snake to, or sold a snake to that died, or that we took their money and never gave them a snake. Anything. You know what? He can't. Because we have never done any wrong business, EVER. I challenge him to find just ONE SINGLE dissatisfied customer of ours. Just one. If he can find even just one I will post their name and the wrong that we did on the Home Page of my website.

If I or my business was the "Super Scammer" that he tries DESPERATELY in vain to paint me as, then there would be hundreds of victims. People that we have "Swindled". Yet he can't produce even ONE. Because they don't exist. Because we only do good business.

What does your common sense tell you? This guy and his buddies over on fauna have a personal beef with me and have been slamming us for yeeaaars over at fauna and they get away with it because the moderators have personal issues with me too and therefore there is no one to stop it. If the same slander is allowed here, with ZERO proof of ANY wrongdoing then I will truly be very surprised. I expect better from this place. From the unbiased people here that don't have a personal grudge against me. I also hope that the people here and the people that run and moderate the site won't tollerate such negative soap opera drama, and boldfaced lies. Won't allow themselves to be manipulated and incited.

I leave it to you to do with what you will. Thanks in advance for your unbiased consideration.

Wes and all others,

Truth hurts, eh?

Isn't it amusing that NONE of your hundreds of satisfied customers EVER come to your aid?

Yes, it's true, the mods over at fauna have "personal" issues with you. In fact, aren't those poor guys KNOWN for bringing all their personal issues to the site? Aren't they FAMOUS for seeking out people that they alone don't like just to make trouble for otherwise good guys, guys just like you, whoever you are today? Aren't they KNOWN for that over at fauna?

IN YOUR DREAMS.

I've had my ins and outs with most of the mods over there and while we had some ''fun", they never made it personal, they never do, my guess is they never will.

Unlike YOU, whoever you are today, some of us, myself and the mods on fauna, are honest.

You're a bad guy brian/david/josh/damon/hannible. I'm FAR from alone in my knowledge of it.

Your reputation has preceeded you to many places.

Maybe you should just stick to pig raising.

Thanks.

I think there are a few more but this guy has used so many aliases over the years that I forget all the names. He's even pretended to be a woman a time or three.

Like most ex-cons, he's a smooth talking guy, but should NOT be believed.

Wes I haven't read the whole thread over at Fauna.

I was wondering if this guy is the same guy that owned High End Habitats?

High End Herps has gone by the names of: Damon heynen, Brian smith, josh the burm guy. He changed his name to David Beauchemin and is now doing business as High end Herps, Lost his Kingsnake account, won't return to the BOI because he has been caught

I know high end habitats shut down a while ago. I thought the names were a little too close for comfort.

I was too wondering that myself... and thought the same thing Kristy.

I actually have High End Habitats on my mypace friends list, I had forgotten all about it until now. I guess it never clicked that they could be the same until now.

I expected better from you Ball-Pythons.net guys since you don't appear to have any personal issues with us the way that those others on fauna have.

And by the way, that "Less than Stellar" reputation you refer to,...lol,... was given to us by those very guys that have the personal issues with us. NOT from anyone that has ever actually done any actual business with us. As far as our actual customers are concerned, and yes there are many, we really do have a very "Stellar Reputation". One that we are very proud of. One that these guy's negative rhetoric could never touch. And their opinions, our actual customer's opinions, are the only ones I really care about when it comes right down to it. And no, I would NEVER subject them to open public ridicule and vicious personal attacks from those that would openly attack me without ANY proof of ANY wrongdoing. Why on earth would I ever expose them to that by calling them to my aid? If I am being viciously attacked then they would be too and I can't allow that.

Not that I need any help. I don't. None of this bothers me much anymore, truth be told. Sure, it did a few years ago, I used to get real upset by it, but not anymore. I am so used to it now that it's like water running off a duck's back, lol. And everyone that sees it that isn't biased in some form or another, of friends of a biased person, can see right through it for the blatant "Anti-High End Herps" propaganda that it is. Negative propaganda that is only intended to do our business as much harm as is humanly possible.

So, can he produce even ONE victim of our Super Scamming ways? I'm still waiting, even if the other members here choose to ignore this little factoid.

Just ONE victim bud. That's all I am asking for. Prove me to be the "Super Scammer of the Highest Order" that you claim me to be.

Good day to everyone else here. I don't hold any ill-will towards any of you. Really I don't. I realize how easy it is to get caught up in attacking someone, even if it is unfounded and wrong.

Have a great day. :)

better safe than sorry.
id rather not take my chances.:colbert:

Oh, that's uncalled for, but him calling me a "Scammer and a Thief" and providing ZERO proof and ZERO victims is not???

Get real. What are you people smoking??

He can insult and slander me with no proof but I make one remark and I am the jerk??

WTH?

If there were never any scamming or theifs going on would this thread be like it is? I think not, people do not just choose someone and start to slam them. Any other breeder would not reply like you do, and just the acts of name calling and asking what people are "smoking" would make me never even consider at your snakes.:rolleyes:

You know what,.. you're right. I let it get to me. I never intended to get upset by any of this but after getting slammed from the left and from the right, incessantly, it just started to really irk me. I mean, first there are really bad allegations made against me and with NO proof whatsoever and everyone is buying into it. Put yourself in my shoes for just one second. I came here for friendly posting. And I am attacked viciously and false statements are made about me, about my snakes and about my company.

I apologize to everyone that I insulted back. It's not my style and I'm truly very sorry.

I know that I am still out of here so take care everyone.

Yes, I couldn't remember my password so I made a new account. Then I got a message from a mod telling me to use my original account and I switched back to it after getting my password reset.

Translation:

Yes, it's true. I am a big fat baby. I am a known liar but I don't want you people who don't know me to know that.

I brag too much, lie too often and then I make things up to get myself out of trouble.

I am not smart enough to get away with my shinannigans though. I keep getting caught in my own lies and duplicity.

This makes me feel bad because I don't like getting caught when I lie.

I am also VERY jealous of Wes. He is trusted and respected and looked up to even by those who don't like him. I wish oh wish oh wish I might be him, but I am not smart or honest enough to even come close.

I hope you all think I am a victim of a bully. It's one of my best SCAMS, making people feel sorry for me by acting like a big crybaby whenever anyone says things that I don't want known. Like Wes does. He keeps busting me when I lie and I don't like that. But I'm not smart enough to resist his bait. And I know I'm not smart enough. Did I say that already.

I'm really not very smart but I want everyone to think I am. That's why I make stuff up sometimes.

I JUST WANT EVERYONE TO LIKE ME.

End Translation

Editorial Comment:


AHAHahahHAHAhahahahahahAHAHAHahahahaHahahah

Okay enough Wes. We're quite aware of the BOI threads, we're able to handle any issues with this member and we do NOT need the neener neener attitude. That does not help this situation and though it may well please you to do this type of post, please remember that you, like everyone here is expected to follow the rules and not bear bait another member.

I just keep wondering what these personal issues are that people have against you that they would create all this outrageous propaganda. Must be mighty serious.

Hey guys, he's in chat right now, sunday 7:15 pm PST.

Come on in and see him live. It's truly amazing.

He dances, he spins, he fabricates and all this while crying crocodile tears of remorse and regret.

Simply amazing.

Joanna made a good point David did tell me on the phone that it wasnt him and he didnt say anything negative so im sorry for the multiple posts on same subject

I just wanted to make a quick post while I still can.

I just wanted to say that I honestly came here with only good intentions to meet good folks and share pics and knowledge. I was welcomed at first but then I was attacked and insulted by wilomn. At first I ignored it just fine but the guy was relentless. Then the mods actually joined in. I admit that I could have handled the situation a LOT better and I should have just ignored the barbs and the insults and the provocations. I allowed them to get under my skin and I shouldn't have.

I don't expect to be allowed to stay here. I don't think I would want to if I could actually. But I would like one day to be able to find a forum with good people where I am welcomed. And not where I am viciously attacked and have lies told about me. I am not a bad guy and Wes never provided even a single shred of proof to back his claims that I am a Super Scammer of the Highest Sort". Simply because he can't because I have never wronged anybody.

I make no apologies to the people that were taking part in openly attacking me. I have no regrets there. I only apologize to the general population here that read these threads but took no part in that lynch mob childishly attacking me.

By the way, I also P.M.ed this message to Wes early on yesterday before things got way out of hand;

It's been a long time Wes. Why are you still so angry and still holding such a deep resentment of me? Don't you think it's time to bury the hatchet and just forget the past and move on? I do. I can forget it all if you can.

I just wanted to say that. All things being equal bud, I wish you the best in life. Really I do. I harbor no hard feelings for the past. I focus only on today and tomorrow and on making the future the best that I can.

Take care, whatever you decide to do.
David
--------------------------------------------------------------

I tried unsuccessfully to bury the past grudges and hostilities with him. I got a very negative response from him with no indication that he was willing to forget whatever it was he resented me in the past for. Some people just stay angry forever I guess.

Okay guys, I know that the mob will be here shortly to disect my post and try their best to make me look foolish or bad. It's just their way. Very childish, but oh well, what can you do?

Take care and Happy Herping

Y'all too Ben ;)

I just wanted to say that. All things being equal bud, I wish you the best in life. Really I do. I harbor no hard feelings for the past. I focus only on today and tomorrow and on making the future the best that I can.

Take care, whatever you decide to do.

I tried unsuccessfully to bury the past grudges and hostilities with him. I got a very negative response from him with no indication that he was willing to forget whatever it was he resented me in the past for. Some people just stay angry forever I guess.

Okay guys, I know that the mob will be here shortly to disect my post and try their best to make me look foolish or bad. It's just their way. Very childish, but oh well, what can you do?

Take care and Happy Herping

Y'all too Ben ;)

Translation:

I want to play in the big sand box with Wes and the big boys but they won't let me. They say just because I am a liar and can't be trusted they won't play with me.

That hurted my widdo feewings.

I lie to make people like me. I have to because I am not big and brave and handsome and smart like Wes is. I'm just a little gnomelike guy, dainty and frail with no friends of my own.

Of course, I did shoot and kill my best friend, but that was an accident and even though I did time for manslaughter I didn't mean to do it. And when I accused Wes and everyone else in So. Cal. for sending me a disease that killed my snakes long ago, I was just covering for my own inability to keep snakes alive. I've never been as good at it as Wes has and that hurted too.

Now, no one likes me and everyone hates me and I'm just so unhappy. Do you see the tears? They're for real. Really. Honest. I feel bad and so should you for making me feel this way.

I am not a crook.
