Ideas/thoughts on basic guidelines for sources

[Cityofgrit]

I think when sources refuse to answer questions or provide the simple criteria that's asked of them..we need a way to point that out so that people will at least think twice before ordering. I'm guilty of it from ..being burned has definitely made me more discriminate when it comes to what labs I choose to order from. I think a good job was done in the Gear Factory thread. That scam got shut down right out of the gate. This really should be about harm reduction..not just scammers but dirty gear as well. @Iron Vett did a good job of that through the brew kit thread by repeatedly posting pictures of that contaminated gear. Ultimately, I think if a lab comes through with pictures and sterilization techniques..we need to randomly send off samples for testing. That happens now..but it should always happen. Let's clean up the Underground and get rid of the bullshit fuck ups that are out to scam and the dipshits that make fear that can cause an infection or worse.
I definitely agree that a template for sources to follow would be a great idea. Let's be honest, the underground isn't for sources, it's for us to discuss sources..the key being it's for us. They shouldn't have any success setting up shop if we all agree to hold them to standards..they may pick up a couple newbies because that can't be helped..there's always those few who won't read a thread before ordering.
Shut guys, I just want to do my part to make Meso and the underground the place that it should be.

Try n get it stickied so it’s alwags at the top.

It's really up to @Millard Baker as to whether we can get it stickied

Well once we come up with a concrete plan, we can ask him. I think this is a great idea. A lot of people don’t leave reviews on labs here bc of the way the underground is. If we start getting it going in the right direction, a lot of good things can happen

 

[Cityofgrit]

I agree and I think there's enough of a push now to get the underground going in a good direction. I hope to be a part of it.

It will always be a gamble. TESTING of a product will go a long way, however those results only hold for that batch. I wish ONE source would show up and provide One product, Testosterone. Super dooper on the numbers Test E or C. With a quality product, charge more, and provide decent service. You will be stacking the bands up. Just keep it simple,
The only current venture of finding a decent source now is similiar to a crackwhore Buying a lil rock from every dealer she knows, and seeing who is holding the best shit. Is she gonna put him on blast or keep the good for herself? Alas, the SAME game we play. Titties and all.

I believe that any source that tries to sale a product on here should have their security at top notch in every aspect. To where a few pics of things that we should be able to see an be posted, without any excuse about security.
That’s for the safety of members and sources. Maybe I’m wrong, but seems if their security on everything was in place then there shouldn’t be an issue with stock pics, filtration pics, and so on.
I like to joke and be sarcastic as much as anyone else and there’s definitely a time and place for that. But we should start taking new sources that come in here more serious. Especially in the beginning, and then throughout.
Not only to watch out for scammers but for our own health and security and for our other members and lurkers.
With testing available like it is everyone that can should take advantage of this. That includes sources too.
So if their not willing to abide by our way of things here then we can hit em where it hurts, in their wallet!
No doubt members here know how to run a source outta here, but when we start stopping their profits they will leave on their own.
If their making money then they are very likely to stay, no matter what.
Maybe then they’ll think twice before coming here unprepared or not come at all.

These new source threads become to cluttered with to many questions asked by to many people. This makes it too easy for the source to skip questions. There is quite a few members here that articulate their question/point without letting emotions get involved. We need members like that to become part of the vetting committee.

The committee would consist of 3 members that would handle the vetting of a new source. These members would handle all the vetting and no other member would post in the thread. The committee would have the vetting layout that has already been put in place by the members. There will be a deadline given to the source to provide all items and each shall meet our standards. The only interaction on the thread will be between the source and any one of the three committee members. If the source doesn't provide the required items by the required deadline the thread will just die. Of course, the source will pop back up with new name but will be required to meet the same process.

If any members feel that something is being overlooked, they WILL NOT post in the thread. That member will contact a committee member through PM. If the committee deems that a source has met all the requirements, then the thread will be opened for sales.

That’s a lot to put on just a few members.
Plus I think everyone has a voice in every thread.
That’s also telling those 3 members to give a gtg on a source. And knowing how members are about doing that I doubt anyone would be willing to take that role on.
Some things are meant for pm’s but with source threads I’d rather see things out in the open.
Don’t get me wrong man, I like your way of thinking outside the box. I just don’t see how this could be executed.

Their not saying that source is GTG. They are saying that all requirements have been met and is opened for sales.

I'm going to bump this thread because it's important

Actually, with the 2 recent sources that popped up, the vetting is going very well

That sounds like the exact shit show that happens on every lousy sponsored forum. If that's what you want, you have plenty of options to choose from. By the way, that is a proven failed format that leads to bribes, shills, and censorship.

And I'm feeling a bit philosophical today. So here goes, my idea, won't pretend to think for anyone else, is to vet and get new sources while meeting the goals of harm reduction. For me, that's getting good quality, accurately dosed gear, that's safe to inject into my body. Its also from a source that responds promptly to issues and questions, corrects their mistakes, and doesn't repeat them. For the source that does this hear, tneynwill get lots of business and not have to pay those stupid board fee. Finally, like all things in life, we should have fun doing it. And I can always count on you guys cracking me up at least once a day
