I’m in like jail for 7 hours! 7! Here.
Tuff love , take away what the scammers are here for
@ifish I feel you man, I feel human, and It’s a philosophical question, and I am an optimistic, so even if I don’t give a piece to each hobo, I will have nice discussions with some, and they have much to tell, cause I don’t clause my door
And for sure, don’t believe anything before you trust someone
Yes just because you’re broke doesn’t make you an asshole. I’ve had some really good conversations with homeless people. Some of them are very smart and have some mental health issues that make it hard to function but they still have a lot to offer.
My seeds come with the karma of the receiver and a few are gonna find they’re growing their own nightmares due to their idiocracy.
A lot of that was also “Wokeisms”.
I’m a 90s kid that did A LOT of unlearning but still love the hate-crime-comedy when it’s appropriate to drop.
My fav quote from a conversation with a former CEO that was homeless at the time from a total breakdown, “People expect nothing of me now… and it’s so… free!”
A friend in highschool who did a lot of heavy drugs and was treated as such kept quiet after cleaning up even though he was running 10 severs in his bedroom runing adspace online earning him thousands a day… “When people think your stupid, and treat you as such, it’s much easier to just let them while I do my own thing so they don’t bother me… it’s so much easier.”
When he showed up one day on a brand new Ducati one day most people thought he stole it while the few of us knew better and both laugh and cried at his achievements.
Granted last I heard from this guy he was a porn baron in the Dominican Republic so I have no idea what’s happened since.
I think I know some of what happened since.
I know exactly who you’re talking about although I think there may be a more sinister twist in there somewhere.
man, this is not the way, but whatever you guys choose.
that sounds like a huge problem, but not from the scammers, from you. if that is how you feel you need to respond then by all means do so, but don’t think it is anything other than you making a choice on how to treat everyone based on the actions of a few. very much how we got into the problem in our society today, but i digress.
i don’t think so, and if it is the reason, then good riddance.
i suppose that is being a tad harsh, but anyone who can’t be nice just because someone is going to take advantage of it has the wrong intentions in the first place. and we all know where good intentions lead, so bad intentions get there quicker.
i’ve only had one seed trade on this site thanx to the generosity of everyone when i joined and got a veterans seed box. i traded two of the strains that i received for two that i wanted and then bought a strain from a member and got a free pack. but then i didn’t know about the seed giveaways when i joined and only did it because of the old og that i missed for so long.
that is due to a faulty perspective. most people on earth are neutral with a few good ones and a few more bad ones. it’s a cross section of almost any society that exists (i read about a couple of indigenous societies that were exceptions but not sure if they still exist). unfortunately, the outliers are the ones that make all the noise, on both ends.
it is up to us, the members of the site, to choose what actions we allow or disallow. this is one of the friendliest, most stress-free, generous, helping websites on the internet, if not the best period. sure, you could put some rules up or change it to keep out the riff-raff, but it isn’t foolproof and will change everything else along with it. not worth it. i’d rather give away seeds to everyone and see them all in the trash than not give any to anyone.
this is nothing more than a variation of the same thing folks have been complaining about since one generation started doing things different from the previous one. it never held water and still doesn’t.
i’m glad it isn’t your site then. this is very much not the way to respond to anything, let alone solve anything.
Hell, my wife and I have both been homeless. Hard times hit everyone, it’s just whether or not you see a path through to where you want to be, and how you choose to change it.
When someone has a catastroph or drama losing everything and asking for seeds and then you check his activity and see he is only active on giveaways and free seeds threads it’s easy to make some conclusions , checking profile is a good way to avoid scammers. …

Im new here and working on my tl2 (4 more days woo!) I recently found out about OG by trying to find a grow log on a strain i was vegging. Most of the people i’ve met are straight up helpful and it seems like most people are geniune. Hopefully i dont have any bad experiences
@logangrowgan2020 I had to post the full quote, it’s too funny oh George, if it wasn’t for the many many of people who are dead because of your actions, you would almost be cute!
Nice profile history : ) @seeds2weeds
There is hope : )
Holy crap! You’ve done more on this site in 10 days than I have in years maybe I’m the newbie!
Thanks man trying to become part of the community. Im in a bit of a gray area so im not too fond on posting photos everyone says the site is secure but i got ptsd from being doxed years ago when i was a teen so i try to put out as little as possible these days
This place is great lol. I only have one buddy to ask questions and he is hours away and cant always give me an answer when i need one, where as i can hop on here ask a question and instead of one buddy i have thousands lol
I wouldn’t stress about it mate. I’ve done tons of trades on here and only two have ever gone bad. In both those trades I knew it was risky as I didn’t know the people and they had shorter history here but I sent the beans anyways. You spend five minutes searching people you get a good idea of how trustworthy they are. If you’re concerned just tell them, due to your short history, they gotta send first. If they don’t like it, you were probably right to be suspicious.
