About time.

Cheers BB 👍

Could you enable visibility of Proof Borgs previous posts on the profile page? I remember seeing at least 3 posts, including one on Mad Honey by Gassed, but these are not visible on Proof Borgs profile as would be the case with normal profiles.

I know all ours is legit but what need to be shown to prove it?

Is the wonder wall the item page?

Does this mean anything in the item page now that says it’s from calli is genuine? Not

It is the item page, it has influence in visibility in topics in some way too. I realise this now after writing a massive review for the first time in about 6 weeks on Lemon Cherry Gelato from TGT, and now it's not even available to click on, let alone see on the wall. Nuked from above for the Cali import mention? Was a nice smoke.

So was it removed from the wall because tgt didn’t get round to submitting proof or it sold out or something so no need to do it?

Am I right in thinking anything on there now saying it’s imported has already had evidence to say this

This is very unusual. It's incredibly coincidental timing too. If an item sells out it's still visible. It would be still there if you went through past reviews or orders and clicked on an item, and you could read the description of that sold out / delisted item, just not buy it. I've only ever seen reviews that are greyed out and not removed if they're a Society sales product? I'd have to go look, but I don't care that much at the moment, and I'm having a joint. The provision of proof is usually demanded, and user instigated via Proof Borg, or was until this.

I cannot answer that as the algorithm appears to be both fickle and variable. The only consistency appears to be inconsistency. Never assume anything on here, and be vigilant. Caveat Emptor.

Mmmm…posts with dates…now there’s an idea for a site improver…if only we’d mentioned it 🙄

And now in Swahili:
Mmmm ... machapisho na tarehe ... sasa kuna wazo la uboreshaji wa tovuti ... ikiwa tu tumeyataja 🙄🙏🏽

"And now in swahili" haha that one got me lol

I've been calling for dates for years! Still hasn't happened.

🤣🤣 Now that is funny

Wuria )))

thanks for this transparency is appreciated and i imagine it's really hard to do in your world.

it's a shame some people just bitch about their own agenda every time something is done to help around here.

don't be discouraged!

Its a shame users don't realise we only advocate for the best improvements to this site noting to do with a personal agenda because if you bothered to look at our whole post you would see we get wall love but for none of the reasons the Bot has mentioned at least not that we can see so while we appreciate their transparency we just don't agree with their findings and feel improvements are whats needed not just talk :)

What a joke this is we do three of these by default, unusual items, original images and non commercial posts!

But we're shown little to no wall love for the main unusual products we stock, we do however get wall love for our vapes which are all over the wall from other sellers also so whats the point, we understand vapes probably sell more then other things but whats wrong with a bit of variety in the wall, its madness you guys are better off saying nothing as the majority of Borg posts we see would be better off in Swahili as they'd have a better chance of making sense!

The wonderwall is a blackhole of madness always has been and looks like it always will be, personally we lost all hope of any improvements after we heard a stock counter is too difficult for this site to manage so you'll forgive us if we're a bit sceptical that you even understands how the wonderwall works yourself!

Your menu is off the chain.

We've been there, never lose hope amigo :)

I rarely view the wonderwall to be honest. For me topics is where it's at. I scroll through for the latest and, of course, I have a few vendors bookmarked.

I've seen you pop up there CA. Does that bring traffic in? I've made some posts but I think one went to topics, I blinked and it was gone

We have done most of them and still far down the wonderwall.
Been in same kind of position over a year
🤔🤔🤔

The wall makes no sense. Some of the best growers never make it own there. Avoid it and do some research into growers that follow your ethos and grow you kind of weed instead.

Any recommendations or links for decent vendors that don't appear on the wall? Never have much luck going through the topics and I'm only seeing the same usual 3 or 4 vendors on the wall as of late. All the decent value for money vendors I was using have exit scammed or disappeared otherwise. I don't know what happened to RealD but he had $80 shake that I was using to make up to 6g of concentrate and it was potent, clean and tasted nice. No other shake or value bud has even come close. Frustrating

if you are in the uk there are 78 sellers right now on the items wall and each one has a rating

Yeah I'm looking for recommendations for decent vendors with good value that don't appear on the wall. As noted earlier, "some of the best growers never make it on there." I'm approaching 100 buys over several years bought many products from many vendors. Of the vendors that provide shake, I've tried most. I've grown accustom to a certain quality for a certain price and was hoping to find similar now that that vendor has disappeared. So far, I have not.
If it doesn't exist and that ship has sailed then fair enough but if it does, why compromise?

Yeah pretty much every seller is on the wall who do you mean

I don't know who because if they're not on the wall and I don't have them bookmarked, I don't know who they are...
If you only look at the wall then you don't know the others exist.
I have bought from vendors who haven't made the wall until another 5 weeks after my purchase.
Another vendor complained of how his products still didn't appear on the wall even after two weeks of listing.

You'll see posts from vendors such as "We finally made the wall!", which indicates that they weren't before.

It happens plenty

thank you wb, this makes our work a little easier

viva o muro maravilha !!!

i notice that reviews with pics get tonnes more respect from the wall than symping a few lines

How can we post videos here? Do we add it as a link?

You can add a .gif via the "local image" button, for other video files upload it somewhere externally and link it using the "web link" feature.

Alternatively if it's a short video that's not in .gif format you can convert it easily here;
https://ezgif.com/video-to-gif

Bare in mind that .gif's don't have sound and LB have a 8MB file size limit.

I was on the wall but not anymore how do i get back up ?

Go to "settings" then "visibility".

If the options are grayed out there then you have been shadow-banned and will have to contact the borgs.

Followed instructions still struggling to get on the items wall.

This is about the Topic's wall algorithm I believe.

In which case, I see your post's there often.

thanks there is just way too much of this. when someone takes the time to take photos and write a review it's fantastic, especially if they show some balls and compare with other items.

ads are just gross and if there is any promise to this community surely a corrupt path into making this an advertising site is not the way.

Very well said

I have a problem with this statement because it’s particularly ambiguous in that typical Borg/Bot way.

What does “post on your behalf” mean? Do you mean product reviews?
( - despite the fact these can obviously be negative as well as positive?)

Most Biggas have benefited from the odd freebie included with their order that vendors want feedback on- you really want to shut that down?

Many Biggas have participated in competitions and reviewed their winnings- you really want to shut that down?

These things fire up the Community- you really want to shut that down?

If these points are wide of the mark I apologise but then do us the decency of stopping the daft robo-talk, and really talk to us….😘

one thing is super clear: the sellers protesting this have tons of worthless posts. the green team fills the wall with 1 line ass kisses from their buyers like every hour. i cant believe the algo allows this.

the wall is degrading enough to its readers when its just sycophants cuddling up but when the posters are charmless its just shite.

I agree with you in a general sense, when the wall fills up with shit the whole site feels dodge. A couple of points though:

It's very real for some one to make a one off post being completely stoked, stoned, and stupid, this whole experience is like a miracle when you are a noob and even as a vet you can have that 1 moment of inspiration. When a seller's page is filled with that then yeah it's crap and the algo should kill that hard.

It's human (borg?) nature that special interests speak out when an issue comes up - they are the ones effected. Even in general, look at the numbers, it's a very small fraction of biggas that ever make a post. No one even knows where most biggas stand on anything at least not from reading the posts I think the algos have a way better shot at this (but that's not so easily verifiable).

And a rational policy discussion is an unsolved problem for little biggy :)

Good points there imo, especially the last one👍

The interesting thing for me is that if the topics wall is such a momentous pain in the arse, so full of abuse, trolls, corruption and sin why doesn’t LB just switch it off? What difference would it make? Is any Bigga going to say “oh no, no topics anymore! -that’s it I will buy my illegal drugs elsewhere!” 😳😂….the items wall, the reviews, private messaging and the Borgs would get 100% of the business done. And your point that only a fraction of Biggas connect with the topics wall anyway is very true I’m sure.

But, for better or worse, Biggy wants to be a Community and I think it is. Not a perfect one because this is the internet. But I know from my experiences just how much I have learnt on here (a truly vast amount!), the friends made, the laughs had. Yes I’ve had daft trolls, been doxxed and had rather unpleasant threats but hey, it’s the internet!😂

I think it’s a great community and I don’t understand why people get so angry about it. I really don’t 🤷‍♂️…

Long Live LB 🥳😘

Funny, these days I've been heading straight to the topics wall. I kinda like the engagement. Especially music wise. Sad thing is not one of my friends is a vaper of weed. I do it on my own so chatting shit while high on here can he fun and as close to a sesh in real life as I get now. My only ither vaping pal is in another country and didnt even vape last time we hung out. The lack of social interaction while high hurts.

Hehe…talk stoner bollocks to us anytime amigo! 😍😂

word

Were you born unhappy?

jeez, not unhappy enough to make a personal jab like this polly. i thought you were a sweet dog

You just sound sooooo unhappy!

why are all borgs only capable of communicating via the use of weird cryptic limericks?

it's like they don't realise they are talking to heavily sedated stoners lol

😂👍😂👍

Few guys in a garage somewhere 😂

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Well said my friend. In what regards do they class “advantage”

I get that venders can create alt accounts and review their own product but most bigga’s can see right though that by clicking on the profile and looking at that. Product released 2 days ago. Reviewed one day ago. Joined January 2023 and the gear is fire 🔥

Where is the line in regards to established users and venders ?

In every part of consumerism the retailer is always looking for an advantage. That’s the nature of the beast. Club card points, buy one get one free.

Food critics for restaurants

Mystery shoppers

99% of venders posts are surly to give the “retailer” an advantage to boost sales. Like advertising 🤷‍♂️

Brands get celebs, sports persons but more in line with LB chiefs to endorse the product.

I’ve always said that I don’t review products that I have not purchased due to the fact that it would make me feel uncomfortable if I had to write a bad review. Now sweetens that they have added in my opinion is fair game. They are not obliged to send it. I’ve not asked for it. Do I appreciate it of course I do. We all do. So if I was to comment or review said sweetener. Like polly said is that a breach of the rules.

Again comps especially interactive ones. I’ve seen comps pulled because the vendor was unaware of what is or is not classed as an advantage

Like us all.

Just talk to the community

I think that common sense should prevail.

Speechless mate, common sense all the way! So I was taken off the wall and topics board a few weeks ago because of my competition and customers supporting me? Wow! 🧐

Exactly

As always Polly knows the score completely! 😎❤️

The Jedi

Polly got this 💯

are giveaways allowed, if we use random number genereator and time stamp?

We though we had it figured out but we are banned again, trying to see where we are goinng wrong,...

Quem somos sem o muromaravilha ?

entry into a fair contest is valid ;}

asking users to post on your behalf on a regular basis or making specific arrangements with any bigga to promote is not valid.

Understood :)

Is this why I was put in LB jail for a week? Only because some of my customers posted regarding my page? Wow 🧐☹️

maybe because sellers with 10x your customer base have 1/10th of the testimonials, this is just how an algorithm looks at things.

You sure it’s you genetics of TGT?

Not throwing shade as couldn’t care less tbh, but they do a loyalty scheme that incentivises you to review.

Like an app and you get gems lol

Not for me, but has resulted in a fuck tonne of post reviews. Many lacking substance and similar to the usual 1 out of 10 / 10/10s we give 😂

didn’t know you got sin binned or anything, but if I just read post Then TGT falls into that category the most.

Again, no hate or anything meant TGT as love your bud lol just who I would think and comes under the Borg like post 😂

Anyway, Apex posts for biggas only to help get user descriptions and help you make an informed purchase in these tight times ❤️

We have now corrected our bonus scheme, users only have to save their order numbers.

Hey GeneticsHub :-) Can you tell us more about LB jail as we found out 2 days ago our page is restricted and we have no idea why - we didnt incentivising anyone / anything - confused! Any help will be much appreciated!

Will DM you once I get home my friend ❤️

:-) thank you!

What a massively ambiguous post. Presumably posted to be deliberately ambiguous? Is this why so many of my reviews (almost all paid for by me) disappear from the wall? Removed by AI after a few posts? Seems regular recently, and makes me less bothered about posting reviews that aren't visible within hours of posting.

Rux the wall the Borg's talking about is the items for sale wall and removing vendors from that

The Borg post is specifically aimed at vendors not at users

What yours experiencing with your posts disappearing is standard topics randomness it happens to me and Polly and Daz and


Some posts stick and gain traction others disappear into the ether

Anyhow, tldr don't take it personally and I don't think that's what this post is addressing 🙌❤️

sybil problems are difficult. you either need to use algorithms to look for similarities or create stakes for participants.

You’ll need to watch the Matrix a few thousands of times before your able to even start to understand the answer to your questions lol

This is enlightening, thank you.

How do you put videos up of the strains ?
Thanks

elementary my dear gentleman, post them on youtube and add the link here. this will get you a preview on lb. conversely if you want to stay away from google you can put it on peertube but that just gets a link on lb, probably less wall love.

thank you!

Posts from my page or others pages aren't making wall.
*Edit, the wall may be messed up for others too, just a heads up.

Yeah I was doing too much… sorry.

I Hope the suspension is lifted soon.

Hey Family,

We apologise if we caused a spam we just wanted people to see the product photos due to discussion on wether brand is original or not. It will not be repeated .

Why has the price of stardawg A+ jumped up in price by over $20 an oz. This batch deffo not as good as the first I got from you either much drier and lost its taste and potency of the first batch I had.

Hi price its not changed in pounds as the pound gone up so the rate has gone up you get more dollrs to pound
RB

Just to add, I’m still doing an offer where I add 1g extra of another stamp with each order. Just be sure to include this in your order message!

Bot police 👮‍♀️ lol 😂

Understood, will do mate

Have they good THC levels?

I would say so Jimbo47, I don't know any exact levels but I know its a heavy stone with both of them!

Honestly it surprised how good it is, I underestimated it!

I hope to see you make an order sometime😀

SCOOBIES

Cool sounds good am still making my mind up 👍

All good my friend😀🤞
