You're right for the most part, but based on a couple of DMs there's at least a couple of people that seem to think I'm trying to run some kind of scam by announcing that I'm going to accept money from vendors and then spend that money. I'm usually not one to give a shit about what anyone says...

This will be the final post regarding the cost and other details related to operating/hosting this forum. And by final, I mean final; by myself and everyone else. Anyone who wants to talk tech is welcome to DM me. We are not discussing the best gardening techniques or quilting patterns here. We...

The donation/tip jar model just can't offer any kind of revenue stability or predictability, and I didn't want to create any situations where anyone thought they earned any kind of special treatment from being a donor, especially for bad behavior. I'm going to reply separately below to avoid...

Someone with a desire to stock up? A husband, wife, and sister who went in together to buy a couple of years' worth each? Resellers buy hundreds of kits at a time.

And just a friendly reminder folks to please walk the fine line regarding political discussion carefully. This is one of those issues that I think are important to discuss in regard to GLP-1s and the benefits they offer to society, but still requires a fair amount of self-discipline to avoid...

Please let me know what providers and in what country.

Never even made it out of the moderation queue...

I am, but it's based in a jurisdiction where various entities could readily shut us down with little if any resistance or recourse.

I would gladly hand the keys and the deed over to Brute Enforcer Emeritus and have myself institutionalized before succumbing to that kind of madness.

Wow, there's a blast from the past username I haven't seen in a while! An inaugural member, who joined a day before the official launch! ❤️

Absolutely, positively, not. I already have a deep distaste for invasive advertising, and I'm working hard to make these changes as minimally disruptive to the user experience as possible. Vendors will not be able to initiate Direct Messages, although they can reply to them (which technically...
