Needs to be more specific. Until I hear you want it off I am keeping it up. Tracy is mean to people too, but still helpful.
 
Could I make a suggestion @Stairmaster1?

The tirzepatidehelp subreddit is obviously your subreddit and therefore this is obviously your decision. However it may be beneficial to add to your guide series post for external resources explaining the importance of discretion and include a few examples of how things can go awry when word gets out too quickly.

This should at least help educate the newbies that come this way and hopefully cut down on the number of people calling us morons over here less than a week in.

Just a thought.

Yeah but it’s safer this way. I mean it would have been ridiculous to be tooooo smoke and mirrors about handbags lol but the discretion here makes sense to me after seeing that all implode so fast. More at stake for both buyers and sellers here. It wasn’t even a bad actor that took it all down it was just a reporter who stumbled onto an interesting story trying to buy one herself haha. The community recovered but I think some sellers/factories were permanently shut down.
True true. RIP 🍊 🛋

It's much harder to discern reliable information now, for both reps and peps. First comes Reddit; then Facebook "technology anxious" (actual phrase used by someone not understanding forwarding) folks; and god forbid anything blows up on TikTok.

The irony of advocating for discretion while blasting something on Reddit.

Anyway, it's too late. That sub gained over 2k people in a week. Damage is already done.

Well when I’m unbanned from reddit in 2 days I can wipe clean any reference to this site and auto ban anyone referencing glp1forum and alternate spellings. Can also take other measures to make sure no one comes here.

Happy to respect the mods decisions, it’s just not clear other than some snark.

我来唱唱反调。这里并非没有账号就什么都看不到。我注册之前也潜水了很久。这个论坛完全公开透明,如果你在谷歌上搜索“glp-1 forums”,它绝对是搜索结果的前列。创始人还创建了一个以论坛命名的子版块,并在侧边栏和Reddit签名中都放上了论坛的链接。GLP-1论坛不像另一个网站(fight club):

1. 没有账号就无法访问任何内容;

2. 明确禁止公开分享链接;

3. 对会员可以查看的特定版块(例如参考文献)有很多内部控制。

我知道有些人担心会丢失参考文献。但是强迫你删除对这个论坛的引用并不能阻止这种情况发生。无论如何,大多数人都会找到这个论坛,这里是唾手可得的资源。Meso论坛也有很多参考文献信息。如果你真想讽刺挖苦,那就把你子版块里的链接改成指向 Zippity 的 r/glp1forum 子版块的链接。问题就解决了。

好主意。我改到zippity的子版块,这样应该就能结束​​这场讨论了。

what I am asking for is for you to exercise good judgement. You’re not breaking any rules by having the link up. That doesn’t mean it should be up — that’s where your judgement comes into play. I’m not the arbiter of every situation, you need to be an adult and evaluate whether there is a good reason to share it when you do. This goes for everyone. Just use your noggins people, I’m not your dad.

If you think it’s a good idea and you’ve spend the time to actually think about it and not just share for the likes and upvotes or whatever then you have my blessing.

That said @ZippityDooDah is in fact your dad so he might veto this and say take it down.

I only have it up to help people find sources. Not likes or upvotes, which is insulting.

Personally I would love to remove a site where a mod makes the community feel unwelcome and that borders on hostile.

They BANNED you?! What for (ostensibly)?

I didn’t say you did it for upvotes. I said that people shouldn’t. Simply asking people to use good judgement ought not be taken as hostile by people able to do so.

But great, you’ve self-identified as ill suited for this community, probably best to remove that link.

Reddit banned me for the random raffle post, but not for the raffle reveal. So I’m not sure exactly, appears to be anti-raffle. No raffles will take place again.

I know reddit.com isn't known for having the sharpest user base but that doesn't mean educating people on the need for discretion early on is not beneficial. The suggestion isn't a perfect, but could help lessen the impact.

Personally i don't see it as a problem that the site is growing. But it is a problem if the people coming here are completely clueless.

That's... I got nothin'. Wonder if it was content of raffle or raffle at all.

Listen - I can appreciate the level of panic and desperation that many people in those subs were feeling when the compounding rug got yanked out from under everyone. I do want to believe you were trying to be altruistic/helpful, but God damn it...I wish you would have gone about it differently. I don't think people here are necessarily hostile towards the newbies (aside from good natured ribbing), I just think the people here are now as concerned that these sources will disappear as the compounding community was. I've seen a lot of people answer a lot of questions patiently, point to popular threads, post videos, etc. I wouldn't call this environment hostile... Maybe a little terse lol.

Ultimately, it is what it is now. Hopefully we weather this little storm okay. People who can hack it here will stay, others will decide it's not for them (this is my pep talk).

I don't disagree. I also don't think literally everyone on Reddit is an idiot... Most of the people here probably have a Reddit account for one reason is another. This situation reminds me of that quote from MIB:

Edwards: Why the big secret? People are smart. They can handle it.

Kay: A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it. Fifteen hundred years ago everybody knew the Earth was the center of the universe. Five hundred years ago, everybody knew the Earth was flat, and fifteen minutes ago, you knew that humans were alone on this planet. Imagine what you'll know tomorrow

I found my own way here as well. It wasn't hard. I'm a Gen X'er and grew up on forums, so I just googled "GLP forum" and voila, here I am 🤣
Wait until you figure out how to make a dump of the forum on your computer and run it against a local LLM, it's like voodoo magic for finding answers quick 😁

Correct, there isn't any prohibition. I suggested/requested at some point giving some thought to where the link was shared to help attract mostly nice and thoughtful people, and didn't want anyone spamming any other venues with links, but otherwise folks can share as they see fit.
