I hope I'm posting this somewhere biggas and admins will see it, and that it's okay to do so. This is merely to bring people's opinions to light on how to make Little Biggy as good as it can be. Hopefully admins will agree to some of this and implement it, but it's of course entirely up to them.

What ideas do you have to improve LB?
For me I would love to see:

▪︎Faster payouts for vendors:
Without knowing what it costs to run the site, I do think the fees paid per sale should be able to cover some haste with the blockchain.

▪︎Stock counter:
There has been a lot problems with substituted items here lately, this could be avoided with a stock counter so a vendor doesn't sell something they don't actually possess. If a vendor could just enter how many grams (s)he has available, it could automatically pause the listing when it's sold out. It could be used for specific options on listings too, like samples/intro offers.
It doesn't need to be public information, but the system would know.

▪︎Clearer rules:
Would be nice to know what's allowed on the site, and if it's society only, and maybe an educated update to what's allowed. If it's purely based on harm potential, then there are other substances that fit the description, and drug class.
The only rules you're presented with upon registration is "do as you please but don't harm others," but there's obviously more to it than that.

▪︎More filters and sort by options:
Would make it much more intuitive to navigate listings, especially for new users who don't know what there is on LB instead of browsing through 700+ listings. The keyword feature is great, but as a newbie you might not even know what to search for.

▪︎The topics page:
Could do with a revamp with categories and a search bar. Sadly, more gold is claimed by the depths here than in the Golden Age of Piracy.

▪︎A gifting system:
This would be a minor feature that would bring more interaction to LB. An option to order from a vendor and transfer said order to another user for them to fill out their address and such privately. There are many friendships on here, and many friends like to give gifts to other friends but remain anonymous. You never know when it's the long arm with a long con.

▪︎Dark mode:
I'm a bit of a night owl and I know many other biggas are too. Won't somebody please think of our eyes?

▪︎Timestamps.

To incentivise some interaction on this post, let's have a giveaway;
Anyone who shares their thoughts here will be entered in a draw of a $50 voucher to any vendor's store. The draw will be on 10/12/23, and a name will be picked with random.org.

if you can code take a look at our project: https://littlebiggy.com/link/V8riGC

we've just increased the reward by 1,000 usd thanks to a seller that graciously pledged to chip in.

but you don't need to do code or invest to bring a new payment processor to little biggy, you can help by simply letting developers know about this community and our opportunity within it. lb is a place you can't believe is real at first (it happened with us) so finding good people to join us is challenging. your endorsement or intro goes a very long way.

if you know a dev let them know about this, or if you have a chance, just spread the word.

thanks :)

Greek economist, author, and politician Yanis Varoufakis argues, “This is how capitalism ends: not with a revolutionary bang, but with an evolutionary whimper. Just as it displaced feudalism gradually, surreptitiously, until one day the bulk of human relations were market-based and feudalism was swept away, so capitalism today is being toppled by a new economic mode: techno-feudalism.”

when you need a lift who is your #1 goto?

lots of people hate on nfts and the like for creating a limited number of things (jpegs no less) when there is no need to.

but creators have rights too, at least human ones (rights not creators, that's a better post from an ai i think). copyright for instance goes back a long way. but its deeper than that especially if your name is attached to it forever. im not sure what that is but it is something and while i personally could give 2 fucks about my memetic excretions once they've popped out i do understand more retentive types.

Would clear so much confusion up and would save me having to message vendors (who have been great in replying by the way) and annoying them! The site is such a jumble to a new user (it took me a good few weeks to somewhat understand the site and the layout) that it may out them off ordering if they are not sure how old a listing is (I know it did for me) something so simple can make life so much easier for both the vendors and the sellers.

epitalon potentially increases the natural production of telomerase. does anyone know how to take it?
