Personal Attacks

Personal Attacks seem to be disrupting users, i think we need to step up the moderation of these posts.


Debating is one thing attacking is another. I feel we need to make a clear rule about attacks, WE NEED to start putting members on timeout!

i have a racing website and i dont tolerate half the crap they do here. we have ignore, but these threads get hijacked.....

People attack for several reasons. On this site, it appears that it's all about "one-upping" the next guy. For whatever reason, some on here want to be regarded as pot growing experts or authorities instead of merelyt being altruistic and wanting to help out fellow growers. In other words, it appears, at least to me, they are more interested in showing how knowledgeable they are and how ignorant the rest of us schleppers are.

damn id still be in timeout lol...but i guess your kinda right

In some cases there is prior history between the two...then they use whatever the current topic is to lash one another for whatever they REALLY are pissed at them about. I wont name names...But we all know who Im referring to.

And it simply is a waste of time for everyone to have to weed thru bullshit to get some serious information.

Kinda like how three or four threads bleed over into one subject?

i dont know who your talking about..theres more than 1 person that does this..actually theres quite a few.

Not just one...you're right...its a few people.

But the bottom line is....they take away from others while doing this. If there was only one correct way to grow...thats what we'd be doing. But since people do different things and still get results...eveyone thinks their way is the right way. Then they argue about it....leaving those looking for information wondering just WTF happened.

Eggggggzakly, Blood!!!!! There is no ONE correct way to grow. Each person finds what works best for them. It could be tried and proven methods or it could be a brand new way. I am always impressed by how inventive and ingenious some of the posters are on here and I usually learn something every time I visit. Even though I know enough to do a grow without ever having to ask anyone for help again, I still am learning new things every single time I come on here.

well most of the arguing i see or am involved in is usually in politics or talk n toke..most of the grow threads stay clean at least what i look at but i knows theres hundreds so i dont see everything.

Same here Heymo---However I stay out of the growing section cuz I don't grow anything!

I agree that I wish the moderators would do more moderating, especially where name calling attacks occur.
I saw a dude here in March that posted "I agree with what he said" like over 300 times in three days, on hundreds of posts. Next thing you know he is a 420 Time STONER and he never gave advise or even grew any pot. For some reason, he did disappear in May.
I've seen one dude call a female poster obscene names and then she came back with worst names !
I've seen posters follow other posters around, argueing with every post they posted, no matter what he (or she) said, it was debated and argued.
I see Soil Growers give HYDRO advise and HYDRO Growers give SOIL Advise.
I see LARGE Major Commerical GROWERS give advise to small CLOSET Stealth Growers and I see posters who never grew more than two plants hidden in the closet advise on setting up large grow rooms.
I see NEWBIE posters give advise and it's their 2nd post ever, and they never even grew a tomato!
AND what about these 14 yr old kids wanting to know how to grow under their beds and on the closet shelf???shouldn't they be removed?
I am getting at least 2 PMs a day from Newbies, afraid to ask for advise on a thread, afraid of being bullied..
In my opinion, I think Moderators could do more moderating.

I know right....I was reading through that section (politics) the other night, and them dudes get down in there. I thought me and skunk had a heated debate going on about aliens, but them dudes are something serious. I don't know enough about politics to even begin to argue with those guys (other than all politicians are crooks)!

I totally agree with you, in fact I laugh at these people. It's funny cuz you get people on here who sware they are expert growers and know everything when in fact we are all growing a "weed". I mean I hate to break the news to all you so called "experts" but it doesn't take a genius to grow a weed. I was criticised on my grow for using a HPS through the entire grow phase....Pffft my plants seem to be doing fine at 50 days flowering. I guess ultimatly there isn't really a right or wrong way, its what makes you happy that is the way....If you look up anywhere on growing weed everybody has different opinions from jorge cervantes to myself. Who is to say im wrong or right? I just know for those that criticized saying a HPS would not work out good through an entire phase, I bet you would be sucking my nuts to get a hit of the sticky white widow dank my shitty HPS grew.....roflmao at you experts.

The correct way is to grow to your likings.

Perhaps it is but for people with low budget a HPS will work fine.....Honestly I really cant tell a difference from MH in vegetative or HPS.

Here we go!
