Awesome 
thank you for your time and information setting this all up.
Cool to see the stats on members!
All out of likes… but I am curious…how do I tell what trust level I am at??? Thank you!

If you click on your name in a post, you’ll see a badge that indicates basic, member, regular, leader, etc…
A new member is TL0.
“basic” is TL1.
“member” is TL2.
“regular” is TL3.
and so forth…
The number of folk at each higher level decreases as the TL increases, in general.

Maybe add a tier 4 for that, that would be the old tier 3?

My observation is that maybe people didnt quite realize what tier 3 was exactly whenvoting.(even though it was spelled out)
I say this because if limited to tier 3 then even people like you @MomOnTheRun arent even eligible.

Oh, I think I got it wrong. When I looked, the poll was in favour of level 2, I thought that won. 
What do you mean? MOTR is level 4.

Leader is above Regular.
Quite a bit above, if you look at the requirements.

I think not to mess up the levels just for seed runs is a good point, so is regulars should actually be regulars (ie. active).
I think we could
- have a badge that is given once “regular” status is given for the first time and is not revoked (unless as punishment for DDoS script kiddies)
- base access to seed runs on that badge
- maybe have another way to include newer members in seed runs
- leave regular status as it is (ie. it is lost if you are not active any longer)

What’s wrong with level 2 though?
Just seems kinda odd when I look at the level 3 group and see someone who I know for a fact joined after me in there and I am still a level 2 lol. Guess I just prefer to read more than I post… still have grow journals and post every now and then.
Either way; I remember being a young punk Learning how to grow from overgrow in the early 2000’s. I joined overgrow again, not for free seeds. But rather the passion and information about growing this beautiful cannabis plant. In fact, I never even knew about these seed runs or of free seeds. LOL
Knowledge is great. Not too mention the great people here doing such kind things. Thanks everybody!
Peace & love

Nothing. More people voted for level 3 though.
Same for me, I came here for information and only found the seed runs after weeks.

All out of likes 
lol.
Oh okay, was just referring back to where you said you thought level 2 was top vote. Yes I understand and do not have a problem with that 
that’s what polls are for

It me.
I’m often unable to leave my home, bc of medical issues, so I spend an unusually high amount of time on OG. Believe me, no one was more shocked than I when I hit Regular status.

I think “has completed a grow journal” would be something I consider a great OG achievement that could be used here. There may be others.

I tried to close it though wasn’t given that option so took a screenshot at 26 hrs from the poll starting
That is a great compromise…Welcome Seed Packs should fit the bill of including newer members in seed runs with many becoming testers
I hate to go against the poll though it seems Craigson15 is right that level3 isn’t clearly understood and so we don’t lose 1/2 of the members participating we should go with level 2. Sooooo I propose…
Newbies - get used to the site and feel of the members
Tl1 - Welcome seed packs
Tl2 - Preservation runs and testers
Tl3 - Breeders and testers
I think this covers all bases for the concerns people have and would be minimal changing things around - does anyone object to this?
Gotta run though i’ll be back later

I concur, let’s get this over with and do an evaluation in 6–12 months.
I think the welcome seeds packs will actually be the killer feature that came out of this discussion.
And yes, I see the irony in saying OG should be about community, not free seeds, but then discussing free seed regulations for ages. Let’s get back to growing.

I concur at TL3 there is also no fear of the donated pack disappearing
I think some autos in the welcome pack would be cool if someone on here makes them

I think we should stick to poll… Trust level 2 will get seeds once trust 3 level get’s theirs correct I kind of lost track. Though if I recall, this sounds like orig plan set forth right before the poll, right?
Wait?? With welcome seed packs come one hit wonders wanting free shit. I think 3 pips for welcome packs

Also, who is bearing the cost of these welcome packs and who is making them or taking on this can of worms? Curious.
