Apparently 5 people PM’ed Ris to ban me from the West Coast OG meetup this fall.
What did I do, and to whom?

Good on you for asking for folks feedback,
maybe start an official feedback thread for yourself. That actively solicits positive feedback as well as negative.
When I took a quick look with search, I see this unresolved from a couple years back, and nothing else for feedback for you, which includes no positive “seeds received thanks” either. I’m not the search wiz that some folks are, which is why I find the feedback threads helpful, though I’ve got to admit I haven’t contributed to them properly for folks I traded with.

Edit:
I’ve figured out what hits me wrong about your post title - by classifying anyone upset with you as “pissed off” it undermines the legitimacy of their position. Personally, when things are serious I’m not “pissed off” I’m angry, dissapointed, hurt, cheated, and in the end just plain done with a person.

Yes. The reply was just a general tidbit with no specifics. That 5 people DM’ed to not let me come to the meetup because they feel like I ripped them off / didn’t uphold my side of the trade.
Which is fair - I haven’t been able to uphold my end for a while, which is why I haven’t participated or signed up for any giveaways or winter/spring boxes and was hoping to bring a gallon bag of seed to the meetup and see if anyone could help with distro for me.

So…
You do know who’s pissed at you.
Bringing a gallon of seeds to a meetup and asking “anyone” for help with distribution is not remedy to the people you have broken deals with.
Make it right with those people first, now. Don’t make threads asking who’s pissed, don’t make posts about being excluded from meetups. Take care of your unfinished business.

Was asking specifically to get those out first.
And when I made this thread, I didn’t yet know it was over seeds. I was wondering if it was due to politics or personality

It’s not others’ responsibility to remind you of your business. If you can’t remember who you had dealings with that’s a good sign you have overextended yourself. Others don’t want to work with, trade or sometimes even trust people who don’t understand their obligations.
Are you concerned your politics or personality have pissed people off and now they don’t want you to hang out with them?
Are you prepared to change your politics or personality to become the person they want to hang out with?

Hey man, I wrote to you after that whole thing happened, because I felt bad for you. I’m with AB, and I hope you own it and do it. You seem like the kind of stand up guy who will.
One of the few things that I’ve done right in my life was “owning” the fact that I’d drunk away years of my life and was solely responsible for my suckage. That was hard. But it was true. When I did it, it was liberating.
Hang tough, brother.

it’s pretty solid that you are able to admit this.

So now you know the reasons, and more importantly, what to do. Get in touch with the people waiting for your beans, apologize and come with a plan to make it even. I’ve understood you had a difficult times lately and had to change location. Sometimes life gets in the way of prior commitments. I’m sure people can understand that, but for that they’d need to know.

Im doing a 1 year retreat at a dharma center to do better.
But your implication that I would need to change my politics in order to be accepted by this community - that’s literally fascism and has MLK rolling in his grave.

But now you know it was your seed dealings that upset some people and not your personality or politics. That was just your self doubt and not even a real problem. I think it’s fair to say you should probably settle up however you need to with those people first. Most likely everything will be resolved quickly if you can work that out. Sometimes just a simple apology can go a long way.

Apologized numerous times along the way.
Here’s one.
Ive been an open book about my life and how fucked up it got. From getting dosed with fentanyl to rehab to my place being burned down, to the Rockefellers ripping me off, to my buddy pulling a gun on me a few months ago.
