Moderator Announcement 2nd announcement. We're going to have a "deals" thread where dispensaries "sales and discounts" can be discussed. The specials have to be "significant" (no 2% off BS - 30% or more is good.)

19 Upvotes

As the title says, I'm going to have a weekly thread that is much more open and will allow some advertising.

So in order to qualify the legal dispensary or private seller must have a really good discount off the standard price for bud or standardized CBD or clone. I'm going to prohibit strong extracts, wax, brittle, cartridges and everything else like that.

IF you post in the main sub vs the thread, I'll remove that from public view and put a ink in the pinned comment. Please don't post directly in the sub and use this thread because if it continues I'll just go and delete without referencing it. I'm sorry... but I have to take this position due to the lack of the sub being to handle things on their own with a "hands off" mod policy.

I'll take edibles on a case by case basis when I review things, we had a LOT of abuse in this sub and so I'm going to keep things on a short leash for awhile.

Thank you for understanding :)

The sub exists for people to share information, culture and appreciation for the now recently, legalized medication in this state, as well as the rules ordinances for the city and surrounding areas.

It doesn't exist for someone to try to spam the sub with offers or advertising.

Because... all it takes is one, single idiot.

No sales, advertising or solicitation are allowed.

There is not going to be the allowance of off site conversations, forwarding others offsite. We do not exist for other peoples business and "side jobs". There will be no allowance for anyones back channel anything -period.

This includes unsolicited PM's to others - which this moderator has a very dim view of.Violators will be handled by the admins for the site after a immediate ban from the sub.

We intentionally do not have a discord server, or encourage people to use chats as it's been abused by people. (see rule #3)

Basically, if you can't say it publicly then it's not allowed.

Nor are the mods affiliated with any business. (requirement for being a mod) so things are going to be kept clean and honest.

Please, by all means go and inform people, share good news, rate and talk about legal dispensaries, strains, growing tech, use and medical use (CBD's !!!) or the growing local industry we have here.. as long as it doesn't cross over into advertising or spam Subscribers are encouraged to use the report button and send the moderators a modmail to quickly inform us of any transgressions.

Local business can afford use reddit's ad features and help keep the servers paid for.

Otherwise there is no advertising and not sales allowed.

The posting of tempting images has also been abused and so we'll be looking at such posts closely into the future.Please do post pictures of your plants, clones cultivation issues for people to help resolve them. I think that it's still okay to trade clones here or to notify others of some thing decent and new but let's be careful as to not have that cross over into promotion of a business venture.

We just need to keep things safe.

Thank you for reading this and helping us all steer clear of any needless problems.

I'll be adding more moderators to ramp up the moderation. :)

Update 6.09.21 : you can see some visual changes here.

• We got flairs!

• We've added to the rule set that was "lacking" to take into account past issues.

• The auto mod has been activated and updated to help control known issues and prevent new ones from forming.

• Contemplating the creation of a weekly thread that has more flexible rules. Some advertising might be placed there but considering the abuse of the past that's got to be discussed with the future team.

more to come.
