I am still struggling to find a sensible/logical reason why he put up his initial post on here? He is basically confessing to trying to wangle the system Lol

KMC's picture

I do not see this ending well, Greg is going to find 75 new post that need to be cleaned up.

You all just ruined his day,........................TAKE COVER !!!

I’ll send him some fishing lure, old guys love fishing lures right? And a handful of change to jingle in his pocket while he talks to people…

Send him some cologne,............ essence of goat,......it will bring back some fond memories for him.

Funny, I always said he’s the Sam Elliott type…

Greg's picture

That would be correct as long as the review is within 6 months from the time the order was received.

KMC's picture

Based on my interpretation of the rule ppsted by press1

Your interpretation is yours, Greg's interpretation may be different.

You shouldn't read press1's post as law, only his opinion of what he has seen and been told, press1 is a member here like all of us, HE DOES NOT make the rules. Greg and BFG do that. It is BFG's sandbox, shit in it ,..........see what happens.

I have seen (I think) (memory is getting old), members who have a history of constantly bumping up against the 8 review limit dealt with more harshly than those who do it only once.

Whine and cry about it as much as you want,....................I don't make the rules, Press doesn't make the rules and you certainly do NOT make the rules.

He posted his 8 reviews then opened a second account, made several posts to get his karma up to 11 then wrote another review. All that so he didn't have to wait 2 weeks for a review to drop off. aka @Lvl99equip

KMC's picture

So, he shit in BFG's sandbox,....................the results were predictable.

First fucking rule of promo whoring,...........................do NOT draw attention to yourself.

That sounds right. If you have reviews dropping off then you should be able to accumulate more as they do. Not sure why youd be "dealt with"....

SeeOhShow's picture

Dealt with implying dropping your karma back to 0, effectively kicking you out of promo eligibility for some time while you build it up again, or getting banned altogether.

Though yes that is a fuzzy line since you’re technically “agreeing” to a promotion while in the red. But no one is tracking it that hard. Bet all that’s looked at is # reviews posted in a rolling year and then # of promotions joined. Can’t be out here owing 4 promo reviews because you’re waiting on that rolling calendar to allow you to post them one by one

sandman3698's picture

I understood what was implied by "dealt with". Im saying Im not sure why some random is on here threatening this dude with a mods actions..

SeeOhShow's picture

I don’t think it’s threatening. Telling someone “don’t do something or there could be consequences” isn’t a threat.

sandman3698's picture

So "you will be dealt with" isnt threatening language to you? Thats fine Ill agree to disagree.

SeeOhShow's picture

“If you are always at 7 or 8 current reviews you will be noticed and maybe/probably dealt with.”

Contextually nah it’s not threatening. But sure if you take it out of context and present it in another way than what really was, then it could be seen as threatening.

sandman3698's picture

Serious question. Can you tell if a post has been edited. Maybe Im crazy or just biased but Im 100% certain thats how I read it.

BFG's picture

Edited reviews have the edited tag, forum posts no

press1's picture

If someone edits their post since the last time you read it, then when you go back into that page again there will be a green 'new' box in the right hand corner.

Or if they change the whole comment, if you upvote it then the original comment will still show in the Heartbeat and be different to what is there now. You can only edit a comment for something like 30 minutes after it has been posted though.

Drexyl's picture

You’d have to do a count in the heartbeat and compare it to the amount of posts in the thread. @BFG an “edited” tag would be pretty cool.

BFG's picture

There is an "edited" tag enabled for reviews... bottom right corner

sandman3698's picture

Yeah... I could also just be wrong. I dont know why but "uppity" people make my blood boil and I tend to fly off the handle. I couldve just misread and opened my mouth when I shouldnt of.

Oh I’m 100% for not sticking your nose into things and that’s why his “dealt with” post irked you. However this is one of those situations where a rule could get made because of one person that then fucks things over for everyone.

Sterno comes to mind particularly. Promo whoring turned actively scamming sources turned posting his “brand” of gear that’s just relabeled from those same sources he just scammed.

I don’t participate in promos. But I understand it’s a necessary concept for new sources to get people to try their shit/get their name out there or even for folks who aren’t as blessed/privileged in their financial situation as I am to afford dumping $500-1000 all over here to try new things, sources, cycles, etc.

TLDR: keep doing your thing man, I stand with you.

Drexyl's picture

And that’s why I’m a fan of promos. Someone tells you that a source is the best, you have to try them. You drop a few hundred bucks only to find there’s something in their recipe that gives you inflammation or another type of reaction. It’s awesome to be able to try a couple vials of something new. As for the others, I look at it as a gift or discount for being a paying customer. 5 sources in 5 months? That’s acting like a sheeny.

Drexyl's picture

You’re good, he’s not. He’s not trying to convince us, he’s trying to convince himself that what he’s doing is ok. 5 months, 5 reviews, 5 different sources. Were those all free? If so he’s a bigger Jew than I thought.

SeeOhShow's picture

Oh god you said the “J” word….Hang him!!!

Drexyl's picture

Distasteful, but I like to raise eyebrows here and there. I remember as a kid we’d throw insults at each other, yo mama jokes and other snaps, but if someone called you a Jew it was time to fight lol. Crazy shit right? My goal is to make at least one person spit out their coffee this morning

SeeOhShow's picture

We live in a world where you can literally say anything you want about anyone or anything and no one cares. But if you say anything that isn’t 100% positive and uplifting towards two specific people, rainbows and Jews, it is full pitchfork and torch season. Justified criticism even falls in that no-no land.

Goddamnit it’s a beautiful Saturday morning and I’m getting riled up lol.

Pumped_'s picture

If the woke movement was allowed to continue we all would revert back to speaking caveman "oooh ooga booga" where everything we say would offend some type of people so it would be removed from the english language till there were no more words to speak. I grew up saying "thats gay" "whats up nigga" "you're a faggot" "youre a spaz" and my group of friends were white, black, homosexual, and we even had a mentally challenged person in our motley crew. We could say whatever we wanted and it was freedom.

They’ve run out of stuff to have us mad at each other about, distractions. Now they’re just straight pushing the most ridiculous shit. The people that get behind the issues are typically mentally ill to begin with, and love to argue.

I said all those phrases and all my friends were white and straight!! LMFAO We also called each other 'retards' and no one could care less .....

When someone, or something, poses a direct threat to yourself and your’s, then the application of violence is justified in defense against said threat.

If I've stated that 8 reviews is the limit for the year that you can enter, then how can you interpret that as its fine to enter an additional one then leave a review once one of the other reviews expires?

Drexyl's picture

I dunno bro, hear me out on this. Everyone likes free stuff, including me. I recently considered a promo, but changed my mind. I’m maybe loyal to the sources I prefer, if loyal is the right word? But I’m a creature of habit, I like to stick with what I know. I currently have 2 reviews for the past 12 months, would I enjoy some promotional products? Absolutely. Am I guilty of only reviewing free products when I should be reviewing paid purchases as well? Absolutely. The thing is, in my opinion, if you’re on here stepping the line asking if it’s 8 or 9, if I wait one month will it be ok, whatever, you’re abusing a very generous thing that these sources do. If you can’t afford steroids, how are you affording supplements and physician visits? I don’t have any problems with you, I like you actually, but this isn’t a good look.

Drexyl's picture

Ok, I pretty much never speak like this, but your “asinine” comment was uncalled for when I’m simply stating my thoughts and opinion on the matter about a discussion that should be obvious. You’re walking a the fine line to get free shit, going through more than one person would use themselves, so ultimately I must say, fuck you. Probably selling the free stuff like a few other assholes on here, it’s easy to figure out. Dickweed.

Drexyl's picture

Not mad, I just practice humility in my life. There’s at least 50 people reading this right now that aren’t even commenting but shaking their head at you wondering why you have no shame. You're dirtying up the place here, grow some ethical values along with those biceps.

Edit- you read it, you know and we know you read it.

Do you not think you are trying to manipulate the system by doing this?
