This may not be as 'common sense' as I personally feel, so I'm putting it to words.
I do not sell to people who are not ready for my frogs. I sell to what I hope are good keepers.
If I have no idea who you are or what some screen name you choose to use and you are inquiring into acquiring any of my frogs please do me the courtesy of not making me ask who you are and what exact dart experience you have.
I can't tell you how many times a month I get the following from some person I don't know , or don't know I know;
lookin for frogs what you got
I'm going to ask your real name and real dart frog experience anyway. So please , let's cut out the step of me asking every single time and maybe potential 'new to me' froggers can volunteer some info .
Thanks tons.
Darts with parasites are analogous to mixed tanks, there are no known benefits to the frogs with either.

Lighten up Rich. Ever think encouraging people to love frogs and promoting proper care of them might be a good thing? I highly doubt people are researching, sourcing, and paying large amnts of money to murder frogs! If you don't want to sell, don't advertise.

I've seen the light, thanks.
Good company thanking you too...

Its because rf's pumilio must cOme from "heaven" or somewhere soo incredible and not from cr/panama like most of our raggedy cheapo pums that are nowhere nearly as difficult as his to breed!

Personally I think its every seller's right to decide who they will and will not sell to. For some of my rarer stuff I do the same as Rich does. Did you ever think that perhaps Rich is trying to make sure that his animals go into the hands of people he knows and that he thinks can breed them so that he has "assurance colonies" if and when something wipes out his stock? I realize that concept is beyond an internet troll like "Brotherly" and a thief like "Sidney" but I am hoping that other people should know and understand the value of placing rare animals in the hands of people you know and trust.

Didn't want this to be so harsh. Just saying u shouldn't feel threatened or bothered w people seeking frogs. Maybe us newbies just don't know better. As I said, don't want to kill frogs and DO appreciate friendly advice and guidance. Sorry if I sounded like a downer.

Do luvs the Monkey posts. Always relevant and dart related. What would we do without a guy (girl? monkey?) like it in the hobby?
Here are some things it may enjoy and relate to , since they are pics and I will include some shiny emoticons too...  hock: :lol: hock:
Here's your very special award. :wink: hock: :wink:

And here's some polish to shine up your posts. hock: :lol: hock:

Let me restate this so those attempting funny time or boo-hoo time 'get it'.
I don't sell to just anyone. If you are not ready for my frogs, you don't get my frogs. If I don't know you, you will be asked about your experience and I will decide if you are ready or not .
So, save us all some freakin' time , use a bit of common sense, and let me know ,without me asking , if you are ready or not.
Well, after reading this second attempt it sounds just like the first. Not too hard to absorb in my mind.
And, lastly , if you find yourselfd in the company of the likes of Sidney Ferrell , be they real and not mock likes, you are wrong. Period.

Hey Phil , is it possible to make a Dome-like area , complete with 'secret' passwords and such, hidden away, so some who live in such environments feel at home here? I'd hate to let all that potential go to waste. :wink: hock: :wink:

More like acts like a child. Do you ever plan on posting anything of value or is this just another forum that you will disrupt with useless graphics and witty BS?

so if people start insulting me it's my fault, and I'm in poor form for responding with a silly quip?
that makes sense...

PS save the threats on booting me. If you find me that much of a disruption just do it and save the pointless drama
