Hello All,

This has always been a touchy issue on the board and it was going really great for a while after implementing the breeder sub forum which many breeders requested but as of the last few months have been noticing more posts going into the classified sections which should not be there.

I believe that i have made the Gray line.. black and white now but again will reiterate what the means of the breeder/sponsor is.

If you are a retail store / home based business / earn a living or a decent amount of revenue from selling anything hobby related then you would NEED to sign up as a sponsor on the board to resell items here. We have very cheap plans for this..and in my eyes its totally worth it, i have seen many people do very well with the advertising and still do to this day.

If you are someone who breeds and resells, you are a breeder. I am not talking about the guy that breeds his cherry shrimp once a year or twice a year and sells them off.. that's just typical hobby stuff and fun to do. But if you are breeding multiple fish / shrimp species and reselling on a constant basis.. you ARE a breeder. If you have 2 different types of fish and you are constantly selling babies off.. you are a breeder. If you spend 400 dollars to raise your fish, and you make 400 and profit 0 it's not my problem, you are still a breeder there is always a cost of doing business.

In reality we are charging 15$ per month for breeder (less if you buy more then 1 month) and currently no one is taking advantage of this.

We spend alot of time weeding out classifieds or have to send pm after pm to people... which is fine, but if we notice the same person doing it we will just be moving your thread to a holding pen with no pm if we have told you in the past.

If you have questions regarding this please pm me and ask away.

Shawn
