Walk in through my front door and start asking about my tax situation, what do you think the response should be? In fact, lots of tax related questions which leads me to think ā¦
Lol, ok. I stick up for lots of folk, have had my fair share of lumps. But, FUD Grohio?
These days I hear that you can pick your sex.

Think what? Please elucidate.
I know your a mod, but careful the claims you make about people.
Is it unrealistic to have intelligent, educated people on a forum that can have concerns? Or are you going to ban me for asking questions? Or delete this thread to hide hard questions being answered?
Are you begging for donations and pretending to be a non profit? Because if you were then you had better believe I would ask questions before giving you one penny.
Or am I on to something? I feel like I struck a nerve and possibly uncovered some hidden agendas via critical thinking.
Iām doing the grow I signed up for then Iām out.
Sorry OG, @Northern_Loki is trying to call me a federal agent because Iām asking questions regarding how worried we need to be about this place being shut down because of apparent tax evasion and acting both as a business and a non profit.
@LemonadeJoe come get your boy.

Hereās the thing, you are free to go elsewhere. I nor anyone here needs to answer any of your questions particularly when you start delving into āare you paying taxesā or any other language that can be consider hostile.
None of this is any of your business. Unless ā¦
Huh, again. Donāt know squat but making lots of assertions.
Well, bye.

Come on guysā¦.this is a .com business with advertising and member donations. I donateā¦yeah $10 a month to enjoy my hobby. Do I care if Joe buys a latte with that $10 no, Iāve logged in twice and the sites been down and Iām on every day. Thatās pretty good service.
Another topic but you sell your shit on Amazonās platform you pay them. Your auction your stuff on here for profit you pay the platform you use. Just cause thereās no 100 page contract doesnāt mean itās wrong to charge a fee for that service. Seed runs no one is profiting so Iād say thatās a community service.
Like it or not this is a business you choose to visit not a charity. A business with growing costs. 100 people giving $10 is $1000 a month. I bet that hardly covers monthly costs.
Just my two cents but yeah money driving the site is what happened to the last one IMO

Good at avoiding the question arenāt we.
Then stop begging for donations and act like a business. Or keep soliciting them and act like a not for profit and be transparent. I mean, the law is pretty black and white on having to choose.

As with the ācreate you own forum for penniesā, knowledge is power.
Btw: the PM you received was likely automated based on your interest and visits to the site. I doubt Joe has time to monitor each memberās profile on an individual basis. I remember nothing that sounded like begging for money Nope

Whoa whoa whoa, everyone needs to relax and take a breather, this is supposed to be a place to vent about the situation, not to take shit personally.
This is what essentially killed Legacy OG, it was from the inside. The final nail was the raid, but at that point it was already pretty dead due to all the good members bailing at the end.
Letās not repeat past mistakes. We arenāt RIU, letās act like OGers.

Yes, this may have caused confusion for some. I donāt know that anyone specifically has ever been asked.

Nobody has to leave over a discussion. We donāt all have to agree, but we got to voice our opinion and that was important. Everyone has been heard. Nothing here to keep you from having fun and sharing cannabis knowledge. We are all grown, we donāt always get we want, some people may never like us and we may just disagree. Itās just part of life.
We all agree that we like cannabis and growing. Thatās why we are here, regardless of anything else.

The only thing I can see donations wise was last year, and it was because a person offered seeds to help with server funding, he didnāt say donate or else.
I also donāt know when we got the inhouse server and if that aligns with this date. But thatās the last event I see that Joe had for server auction.
The automated system for asking people to donate to OG is what Iām referring to. Thatās no different than a PAC or a politician sending out mailers asking for a campaign contribution, except itās going to a business.
