Sorry bud, I am not sure. Loki posted some FAQs below and I would imagine the info is in one of those.
Sure bud, fire me a PM.

Itâs technically âpostsâ in the last 100 days - each time someone starts a new thread, or responds to an old thread, thatâs considered a post. If youâre reading posts from last year, even though youâre learning, theyâre not counting towards that 25% since theyâre not from the last 100 days. It doesnât actually slow down your progress though, it just doesnât advance it⌠of course, itâs not particularly necessary to get TL3 to participate in everything except the Private Lounge area, seed run co-ops are still open to TL2. Iâm probably just being nitpicky to even point it out so much, since as people have said a lot youâll hardly even notice the difference between TL2 and 3 in practical terms - since itâs so private, itâs not used all that much by people who want to just chat, apparently.

Not to be a âdragdownâ or anything like that cuz. but i didnât know or care about what or how many posts I read or not lol i just read what interested me. ⌠and âvoilaâ i was there before I knew it had happened. Then I was like, wait, what? How the hellâŚ
I didnât even KNOW the rules regarding such stuff
It was almost a year before I did any trading or giving away or asking for
edit⌠and when I actually DID start doing anything, the first thing I did was hand out a lot of beans to folks lol

I do believe I probably rivaled @DougDawson aka OGSANTA! lol If not more than. I ainât talking a pack here or there, but 3-5 packs+ at a time just giving to the community because I saw the want/need. Every time I did a multi-pack giveaway lol it always seemed to run over the nmber of packs I offered. But it wasnât a big deal since I always, already had plenty to share. The beans werenât what I came to OG for cuz

You are definitely what we all should be, in a perfect world. And, had the seeds I was storing been useful in any way, I wouldâve started up by passing those out. Sadly, I chose to throw away all my Blueberry F7s because they probably were originally from DJ Shortâs Blueberry F5s (and as I said in another post, even broke crackheads refused to smoke that bud more than once - literally) and those were the only ones I had - prohibition is no fun, and I didnât know Overgrow existed. I spent more than I probably shouldâve on genetics before coming here, but I donât have enough of any one strain to be handing them out. Eventually I will be doing preservation or other seed runs of my own, but yeah - for right now Iâm still killing half the seedlings I pop. I still have big plans and want to collect landraces to eventually breed, though!
Thatâs all it takes cuz⌠the want to. Thatâll come for you soon enough! Share the love and sow the seeds!

Just grew jelly rancher/hella jelly this summer, it was a really practical plant imo, quick flowering, really tight internodal distance; I would try to spread it out a bit if you can manage, but aside from that Iâm sure youâll love it. I washed some for bubble hash and the family loves it; they say itâs a very energetic smoke.
And dont forget about BigMike55âs two threads.

I came here because Mark fron Strainly asked me to show my grow using his Blue Cookies beans. Dont know why he said OG since he evidently is not a member here. Anyways. I came here started a thread like I told him I would. Couple weeks later, just out of the blue, @corey sent me a DM asking me if I would like a pack of his Purple Headband. (I promise to run them soon, haha). And I just stayed. Man. That seems a few minutes ago.

Yes i feel the same way, I am not counting. I read what is interesting and now connect with OG members and its fun. When I have been here long enough and participated enough the system will move me along. When I have my first successful seed run I will be happy to share. I have found the OG community to be a great resource and members supportive, helpful and generous.

Hello,
the changes we have made in June are well documented here: Introducing Regular Emeritus - #39 by LemonadeJoe
There was big discussion at the time that led to this decision. You can read a lot of reasoning there related to privileges, trust levels and seed-runsâŚ
Seed Runs Co-Op Logistics/Cost/OT Discussion Megathread
Introducing Regular Emeritus
and if you go even deeper in the history, there was:
Limiting access to seed-runs, auctions & fundraisers
There will always be two conflicting sides and interests. We are looking for fine balance, which is the unachievable ideal. It is impossible to satisfy everyone.
BTW. The solution is probably very easy. Iâve sent @MoBilly his stats, so now he knows exactly where he stands and how to reach trust level of Regular soon.

I was talking zero turn mowers, not loaders. That did just clear it all up for me though 
I mean most times youâd be right 
I just spent my day, once again, fighting my driverâs door lock. As of now she is workingâŚ

I understand all the reasoning behind limiting seed run co-op threads and posting in that forum; what really bothered me about the level situation here is not only that @MoBilly in particular is enough of a regular to be there already, but that in this case he and I are both locked out of the Private Lounge where @JohnnyPotseed had his thread moved to protect from Google bots. It seems like limiting the Private Lounge thread to members or higher would serve just as well, to me⌠thereâs no seed runs going on there, are there?
I totally get wanting to prevent people from abusing the seed runs, and Iâm not trying to argue about it. Itâs in order to keep community runs in the community rather than being taken advantage of. Not that itâs relevant, but I support that it even if it mildly inconvenienced me. 
Iâd rather be able to sign up for the seed runs myself without having bots taking every open spot 5 minutes after itâs posted, and once itâs hit Googleâs databases.
