Disqualified Growers

Hello Family,

Some very unfortunate news today.

GD Team has received numerous complaints about certain growers' behaviour on the website, and had to conduct an investigation accordingly. 

Due to suspicious activity aimed at bypassing the Awards system, @Tryhard, @Korfer, and @bigpun will be disqualified from participating in the 'Grower of the Month' contest in October.

Once again, GrowDiaries does not support such tendencies in the community. Please play a fair game, my growers! We work hard for these prizes to be available to you every month. And please let us know if you notice suspicious behaviour. Let's ALL take care of this place.

Please don't forget to hit the complaint button when you see an inappropriate comment/message in chat. Starting now, GrowDiaries will be paying greater attention to such issues.

We hope to never have to do this again.

Peace,

GD Team

@GrowDiaries, maybe the Grower of the month contest should use another rewarding system than the « Like » button. As @TheFairyBudMother, suggested, a « Great Tip » button should be used to rewards helpful comments and used for the Grower of the month contest.

@JUNGLE_B4RNS,@GrowDiaries,@TheFairyBudMother I agree , “like system”...only rewards “social” grower, no one skills.

I think there is too much intrigue between growers over nothing... Wet weight, dry weight, simple task, weight> film>input the result. Finito. In my opinion the grower of the month contest is used to incorage the community usage and website traffic. This disqualification in particular im not commenting on, I think if one have valid arguments, is more productive to speak with GD in the inbox or mail. @@Tryhard @Kofer @Bigpun . I agree with @JUNGLE_B4RNS that the sistem of GM should be ajusted to something more fair, this “Great tip button” sounds like a solid idea to considere. @TheFairyBudMother, 😜🙃👍🏻👊🏻 @GrowDiaries this will also discard the comments for likes, and create a more callenging envirorment, and award the intelect, as opposed to the inpulse comment. I would be supper happy if there was a way to tag users easyer. Heheh 🙃 Happy growing guys! Be well! 👋🏻👊🏻👍🏻 Cheers!

@Bigpun,I understand what your saying remember that day when I was top of growers of the month and you went up over 100likes and it was when I was arguing with KonopCh and I asked you check you notifications because I rate he’s like all your stuff so you can pass me it’s things like that bro but maybe @growdiaries should of asked you and you know the worst of it all when @korfer was going up 100s of likes a day some 1 was going on my profile liking all my stuff so he couldn’t take me I played no part in any of what was going on that how I know they didn’t go and do a investigation they went off other growers I can sit here and say you check other peoples diarys like my self and comment and get back to people but if you notice a lot of the people doing the moaning are the ones that don’t comment don’t pay a intrest in other peoples grows and think of more of there own like I keep getting pulled up about a 3.7 I grew and never thought when I joined the site it was to compete with other growers in my eyes it was about the experience learning bettering my self has a grower to meet other pot heads like my self all I ever hear is bitching about prizes I took 2 of my diarys I harvested down I will play no part in this months and if any of my diarys ever place 11th place will be very happy votes are still tactical I’m not goner say no names so at the end of the day I’m getting disappointed by the site certain members who are two judgemental of others @sillyasswhitedude was spot on in what he put

Regarding the top growers charts, I believe this should be based of number of thread views and followers rather than the amount of likes you get, we have already seen the likes system is easy to manipulate to make people look like good growers.

You could complicate things by giving everyone the option to vote or score every diary. Like a 1 to 10 scale... Then the best avg score across a minimum amount of total scores cast would form the top diary list. This would allow a lot of scoring activity for everyone who wants to "Judge" and by increasing all the feedback you level the field by making it hard to rig, or beg or whatever... You could even create a scoring system for different aspects of the diary... photos, yield, etc... I would keep things anonymous so you don't have scoring wars... By complicating the scale you likely make it more random or fair... I think this would encourage more participation overall as well... Focus on scoring as many diaries as you can!!! Would be fun to design a scoring system... Need more weed for that... better pop a few more seeds!!!

@JUNGLE_B4RNS what about if you ask for help or a question and get no help in return or even get a response from a grower though? giving someone likes or a good recommendation and such is already done here...there needs to be an opposite balance...remember when you could only like something on facebook...kinda sucked...what about when someone gives you advice or fails to help you and your grow suffers for it...if we had a negative type balance we could better rank whats actual advice and whats complete bullshit and even when someone lacks total response...I see growers you guys say are helpful and great people that wont hardly respond to me at all...and other growers that people trash on here or get booted off that in my opinion atleast took the time to share info and help me out when most of you wouldn't even take the time to respond...there should be a dislike button is all I'm saying...would kill the arguments as well...maybe people would check themselves a little better...maybe not...either way ill continue to GROW SHARE AND LEARN honestly!!!

@Sillyasswhitedude, hey bro it is a great platform they just need to work out the kinks. I have been gardening for over 40 years cannabis over 29 growing and studying everything I can about it. Don't let the little things get to. If ever you need help / advise I will help or find someone who can.✌️ ☺️

@Sillyasswhitedude, I always respond to you buddy <3 If we had a dislike button it would get abused also. I also think there are some people who behave like utter jacka$$e$ that could use a few dislikes including myself. Pretty much it's overall a no win situation....

@GrowDiaries, I understand the sanction. Most of the likes I got this month were suspicious, I even got around 10 likes on uninteresting comments ! @@Tryhard and I talked about this issue and we suspect the late Konopch for trying to boost our likes to make us fired from GD. You have seen how disturbed that person was and I praise your choice to ban him permanently. Although I did comment a lot this month because I am unemployed, and most comments I think were constructive and helpful to growers (I got some people thanking me for this), there was at least 500 likes I didn't deserve. So, good choice GD, keep on improving your already great website !

TheFairyBudMother
TheFairyBudMothercommented7 years ago
@biggreens420, ah so this is your fault! (seriously kidding) 😘. I think folks are less concerned about lack of a comp, but how it is they had any control over this situation, and whether being social on a social media site should be punished or rewarded or treated neutrally. Because right now it’s unclear.

When exposing users to such verdicts, there should be a solid proof, transparently published to the community. Like this its only allegation. Thats just my point of view

Like I said last month when all this crap started happening I won’t be accepting no prizes any way never joined this site for this if I finish in diary of the month I will be giving my prize to 11th place and if I win grower of the month in the future I will be giving my prizes to second place which I was going to do this month except I was going to give it to 5th place because the other three behind me went up really fast
