I will ask this even if it has been asked, we know they're based I. Kentucky, do we know the tow? If we do, then why not contact the town, when they begin to break laws which they are...? Wouldn't it make sense for there local police to be involved?

I just hope all this is over and done with fast..


This is the kind of website we do NOT want getting on the news, giving all us in the herp world a bad name... We already face scrutiny for people saying we treat our reptiles like they are commodities instead of living things...Well, this is about as bad as it can get in that regard. I swear, this would be all over if it was any other animal... Yeah, let's just hope this stays relatively quiet and gets shut down before things get hairy.

I agree, this is only going to end badly. That is why I am against it. If it was for dogs then it would have been closed down day 1. But people always have to use reptiles Because when it comes to laws all we care about are banning them and rarely enforcing laws for there health. A lot of the people who agree with ball bids are only taking there side hoping to win, if they get screwed they'll probably be on the debate to shut them down. And another thing... a part of me wouldn't doubt if a few of those accounts are dummies an fakes. Reading someones writing and.comparing it Isnt hard, not many can cover there tracks well, to the point were they can control multiple people secretly.... I really hope this isn't one of the nails for our hobbies... some Or us actually fare about our pets well beings..

I don't know how many are fake. I'm actually facebook friends with quite a few of them. And I'm sort of shocked with their ability to trust this site to be honest!

I'm sorry, I'll clear this up. Some people we know for sure are real, but to be honest some of the other people seem to good be true. I can make a dummy account and add random people from the state that I post the account to be in and get friends. I've seen this Done and one of.my friends did and it got over 15,000 friends. But some of the people who are defending ballbids, it just seems to good to be true.

I just want this to end an for them to b shut down. ;/ it's hurting the community, we're already under enough fire as it is...

According to them, they are registered in Floridian but work in Kentucky...how does this work? That's like saying, "well medicinal pot is illegal here, but I bought it from here so it's okay" I do not understand this... DO NOT START A POT FIGHT.... IT WAS AN EXAMPLE.... the matter of this thread is of well...a lot of things...lol

[purplemuffin]

Haha, no I understand. I guess that post is partially in awe of the people who are really into this site... I didn't think I'd know so many of them! Oh well. Herp industry is a small world I guess!

I don't think its a small world so to say, as much as I believe it's more of "I want to get lucky" world. Think about this. What if they bought a Bailey baby? Now imagine if that baby was a a VPI Axanthic Pinstrip.. people are going to go.for.it like there's no.tomorrow. and in the end, when they loose hundreds a lot of them will agree "shut them down" but not for the right reasons.. you know the phrase, you buy cheap, You get cheap...
