Promo whore is a misnomer. If you hung out in the forums rather than the promo pages you'd know this.

A good part of the reviews is getting to know who is doing the reviewing. A good part of having a free membership on eroids is to give back to the community. And the way to do both of those things is to contribute to the forums... even if it's nothing more than banter.

You haven't been in the forums for 8 years.

many members here haven’t contributed to the forum for a long time or have never contributed to the forum and have not received the same treatment as me but that's ok
thanks

Greg's picture

And many members have; as you can see if you visited any of the posts here:

https://www.eroids.com/forum/general/user-blacklist

You're welcome

Norton's picture

a moderator would be kind enough to explain to me what happened
Thanks

Norton's picture

and anyway I would have expected a warning first as it is not mentioned in the rules and I have been a member for 10 years and I have never transgressed

KMC's picture

It has come to my attention that you can't count.

You have been here 9 years next month. NOT 10.

And if you haven't transgressed why are you at -11 bro???

I might know where the regulation says there are a minimum of reviews to write and with what minimum number of words

I think I wrote the most important things

Thanks

Norton's picture

and I repeat to you I wrote the most important things and I don’t think that from my reviews a member doesn’t understand if the product or source is not valid

and I can tell you that some sources have contacted me to ask me to participate in their promotions, and I have turned down free products because I was not going to use them soon
so I can assure you that I am not taking advantage of anyone and you can check all this by reading my pm

Norton's picture

good morning
could I know why all the karma points have been removed and even now I am at -11 ?
I have read the rules and I don’t seem to have transgressed

Thanks

If I’ve found a source online but do not see the source on your review site, is it okay to ask the forum if anyone has an opinion on whether they are legit or not?

Greg's picture

The rules clearly say you can not. You could however submit the source.

NO SOURCE CROSS-POSTING! what does this mean? I posted something about a source in the source discussions. Where else would it go?

Greg's picture

If you're on source A's page, don't talk about source B

PIN_CUSHION's picture

How you doing boss? Thanks for keeping this shit going for so long.

Greg's picture

wrong Mike, practice your reading comprehension.

BFG I noticed a member who copied and pasted and article. When joining the forum I read the rules and respect the rules. After pointing this out someone took my karma. Is it ok for higher karma members to copy and paste without pasting the link or giving credit to the author? I’m truly asking I’m not being sarcastic. This member is a solid member and posts information that is very useful but should I lose karma for expressing the integrity of the rules? I’m here for the knowledge not the karma so it’s really no big deal to me but I found that action against me quite strange.

Greg's picture

You are correct. I'll take care of the person that negged you. you have your karma back.

Hey brother so I’ve had difficulty logging in to my old account dingbat23161488 cause I went to prison for 4 years and now have a new email and new number. I forgot my old email address and password which there lies my dilemma. I’d really like to be able to log back into my old account and be a part of the community again. Please get back to me when you get the chance brother and thank you for what you do. What ever it is you need from me just drop me a message.

I have a very legitimate question, likely has been answered many times before, but it has never been asked by myself and there isnt (in my mind as it would be yours) any better person to ask. From what I can tell, this site is mainly used to verify sources and products via reviews.
I think I see that a certain amount of reviews must be received before they are actually posted, which makes sense so that a single person cant sway multiple when they are only swaying and not being honest.
What I dont understand at all is not being able to have a discussion (an adult and respectable discussion) about the sources that this site has reviews on. If theres 1 think I have came to know from other shopping sites, reviews are one of the biggest things falsified.
Even with the limit before publicizing, if a company can do it they will surely reach that number one way or the other. On the other hand, I have hardly ever found consistent and many discussions that remained fabricated. A review- yes fabrication for sure no doubt possible. Discussions- the truth is bound to come out somewhere and is something I believe MUCH more reliable than any review. The downside- people lie for their own or anothers benefit, but that is going to happen with anything no matter what form of communication it comes in.
I may be completely off, but so far (to me) the most useful thing on this site is ability of checking and finding sources. Im not sure there is any other bigger purpose for this website. But then to turn around and say you can review the sites but not talk about them. WTF. Complete idiocracy, especially if its for the sole purpose of protecting people from trolls because trolls come in any form and besides that if people are still capable of falling for trolls and not doing their own thinking and research then you are not going to be able to help them just by blocking source talking as they are screwed in life in every factor and can not be helped. Dont shield my eyes because of the guy that didnt think to look away from the sun. I enjoy the light and would prefer to decide myself when and why I decide to stop looking towards the sun (usually when my eyes hurt(?)). In other words, dont punish the innocent due to the idiots actions.
Everyone should know that anything read on the internet should be take very lightly. The ONLY thing that would make this website helpful is the ability of discussing the source reviews that is keeping it alive and preferably with those who have reviewed it or someone that has experienced it.
Otherwise it makes this site no different than any other troll site on the internet without any way of truly finding (or feeling better about it) by discussing it more in depth with those who have tried it. Point blank sense. I cant think of a single reason that would validate it that wouldnt also pertain to reviews, so why one and not the other.

Greg's picture

you can discuss anything about the source that you want on his SI page, just not in the open forum because then you have people spamming their favorite source and flaming the others. To play nice, everyone gets their own room.

Sensible,
Logical,
Brilliant.

JackBeNimble's picture

Ah ok that is much better, sorry for jumping to conclusions. I was like what the heck kinda s is that.... but, cool. I retract my assumption and am happy to hear the souce talking rules apply to everything but the sources own page (I hope thats right, and obviously to a certain degree only). Thank you for clarifying.

Bro, you are definitely on your own. If you are not getting answers on that sources page you will not get answers here.

Rules read thank u!

i am not seeing in the rules where politics are taboo in the off topic forum, so why did my Brett Kavanaugh, post get deleted??????

CBBurrr's picture

We argue enough over Trt, and who's under 25.

Politics would push us over the edge.

addicted.to.pain's picture

rodger that , i get it .

but still if that is the case, put it in the rules, "no politics".

Greg's picture

Are you making this political?

It fits under rule 6: Common sense is to be used across the board. (except maybe in Off Topic).

If you have a topic that won't blow up into a shit storm, go for it.
