I appreciate what you are saying, but it was always my intention to release my test results publicly, this was just a suggestion by myself to cost share for others who want to get theirs tested as a "group" and then we can save money together. The only way this works is because we are part of the same "batch".this can discourage some people from joining, since results will be available for free later for everyone, maybe you should implement something like delayed public release, only in case results come back not good release ASAP
Im writing this as someone who is not a participant and I really want to see the results, but I understand you guys will be paying for that, so you have to think about how to keep others motivated to contribute to the test fees
btw. the new thread is really needed
What you are buying when you get your product tested is a level of certainty, and some people (including myself) put a price on my safety for that level of certainty. By not getting your product tested, you inherently have a lower level of certainty. Everyone has their own risk tolerance, and that's totally fine.
I think the concept of withholding information because "I contributed this time" just creates an environment over time where no one shares anything, and I disagree with that concept on principle. I believe that if someone gives you confidence in a purchase, sometime later you will pay that kindness back to give others assurance. Maybe I'm wrong, and obviously anyone can start up another group test, I wouldn't be offended at all, but one way or another, this community will have access to my test results on my kits and hopefully that helps people make more informed choices.
*hops off soap box*, but seriously, I just wanted to get my test results cheaper to share with people and most importantly myself, and if it all falls apart, so be it.
But I'll tell you what, let me communicate with Peptide-Test and see if he would be willing to separate the groups into shared and non-shared for the same prices. I'd much rather people have the choice, I just didn't think it would be possible because it's one "report", but with a bunch of different vials in it.
