PSA Beware of Matt Riot and Riot Seeds

Sorry, maybe I misunderstood when you told me this thread was disingenuous and that I didn’t care. Was that not an attack?

Would this be the wrong place for Dibs?

Ill take some riot seeds.

edit listening to some of his podcast episodes and old forum posts from different sites.
I tend to believe what he says and the stories he tells.

Really interested in the history of people he has worked with. positive or negative.
For such a person with “questionable” legitimacy, he sure has worked wiuth some really prestigious people.

Really curious why seattle greg of northern lites fame gave him seeds to work with, along with todd mccormick. To me, those connections say more than anything else.

I think he does speak really homophobically and thats a crock of shit

Not an attack. Miscommunication is all. My apologies

I’m all about outing scammers, just ask @DannyTerpintine and @DougDawson :man_shrugging:t2:

Greg gave a bunch of people seeds… He didn’t give Bodhi seeds tho, does that mean something too, then? I don’t think it does. Nor do I think Greg doing so makes any difference in regards to Matt’s character. Maybe Matt is just well connected and asked. I doubt Bohdi cares.

The people he has worked with give him lots of legitimacy besides greg.

I get what youre saying and its probably right, but thats just a guess.

Who else is working with seeds from greg currently beyond riot/csi and todd Mccormick?

LOL, yes I remember that train wreck when you called out Danny for asking people to pay shipping for giveaway seeds on IG.

Greg’s also not been super active on the internet where Riot likes to run his scams. He’s just an old og. I doubt he even knows his backstory.

A couple of years ago, when I first found Bean Basement, I was reading in the section about Breeding. Someone posted up this HUGE PDF file, hundreds of chapters or sections. It’s gigantic!! I asked the OP if I could make a copy of it, and got permission to copy it.
SOOO much is miles over my head, in the hard core botany of the subject. Every aspect, detailed, every one has a section.
Way down, I find this file titled Matt Riot it’s for the patients. about 58 pages long.
Has who he wronged and evidence, a lot of todays breeders.

Who ever compiled this, really complied an opus to breeding, and really did not focus on MR. He simply referenced MR, as he exposed a lot of lies about the reasons for his work, and it was not about the patients.

I was warned way back to find other breeders to purchase beans from. So glad I listened.

That was probably Masonic smoker lol

He’s created a fake Instagram for Matt riot with about 411 posts of deep fakes and shit with Matt riots face.
It has like 11k followers

I find it creepy tbh
He’s put a lot of work into making fun of Matt
I thought it was funny at first cuz I don’t care for Matt but now knowing the full story Matt was not in the wrong at all there he did a good thing afaik about the situation

Threads like this are so productive… I feel like I should contribute too. :stuck_out_tongue: This’ll have to be close enough.

Edit: Apparently someone has flagged my post for being off-topic and I have to edit it to bring it back on-topic. Personally I feel a post referencing the fact that rumors are unreliable, and you can’t necessarily trust them, is very on-topic and wastes far less space than 82 he-said she-said exchanges. Willie Nelson wrote the song I linked as an explicit answer to the rumors that he was already dead. I feel this entire thread should die instead of Willie Nelson. :wink: He serves a purpose on this earth, and this thread does not. Thank you for your time, and please stop being so flag-happy, folks.

i think i saw that post, but not the MR stuff. it was just a post with a ton of pdf links wasn’t it? i spent the last 10mins trying to remember where i saw it but couldn’t find it. I’m not sure it was bean basement tho…damn it’s killing me, i saw it.
edit, well i found this old one but i dont see any MR stuff…idk if this is what he was talking about. i remember a newer post by someone that was pretty much a duplicate of this one and in my search i found this one.

I don’t know anything about OP’s breakdown of why people shouldn’t trust Matt, I only know why I would never do business with the guy: he was on The Potcast a couple years ago and went off on Gage Green in a totally psycho way that made no sense and IMO revealed Matt to be a personality-disordered giant flaming asshole (GGG then went on an episode and were arguably worse in response, that episode was ultimately deleted).

I have also listened to Matt on podcasts when he wasn’t in flaming asshole mode and found what he had to say interesting. I think he probably is genuinely two different people, reasonable dude who is thoughtful and knowledgeable (whether that knowledge is first or second hand I cannot say) and that other person. I take it from the people who can stand his presence that he isn’t that other person most of the time.
