First off before you hate me, welcome to RIU.Lack of responses seems to be an issue on this forum. Most of these people really piss me off because they think they are gods of growing. Everyone had to start at the beginning sometime and they all act as if they are too good to help us. I had to post several times over a period of a few weeks, just to get a freaking response from somebody and they replied with the same smart ass remark "do some research and browse the forums before you start asking noob questions". FUCK YOU PEOPLE WHO SAY THAT!!!!! i guarantee that same person would not enjoy that exact response when thrown their way when they just started out growing. The fact is, that most newcomers do a lot of research on their questions before they ask them (and there are some that don't), but most serious newbies will gather up as much knowledge as possible before diving in head first. Most of the veterans only post in pre-existing threads that have been going on for years...and then you expect the newbies to browse through 1000+ pages for that one freaking thread!? GFYS! The search option is not very accurate in case you haven't noticed. Each individual is different than the next, and that person might have a harder time understanding the info that is put down in typing. Some of the miscommunication is because of the extremely poor quality of grammar that is spoken by at least half of this forum. Im not here to cause any problems, but i do tend to want to speak out for the little guy who can't get his voice heard over the pathetic pukes who run this dictatorship. <---smart asses. I am not a novice when it comes to growing any greens but like you, i do tend to have a few questions that rise up throughout the growing process. The fact remains the same; treat the newbies with some respect and a timely efficient answer and you shall receive it in return. This is a "Growing Forum". How bout we all learn and grow together as a community of people who enjoy the same wonderful fruits of life! Growing doesn't just apply to plants, it also applies to people and the planet we live together on. And together we should be able to grow and prosper for the sake of a better life! Cheers!
Hi Legal - I'm kind of confused by your post. All of the "Bubbleheads" came to this thread to stick up for Mob. We thought it wasn't right for some people to not answer his questins politely, so we came to let him know that wasn't right. So again, I'm not sure where your post is coming fromYou people are sooo mean to that sweet, caring man!!!! I have personally known MobTies even before he joined the military. You should all be ashamed of yourselves!!!!!! That man fought in a war for this country so you could have the freedom to choose whether you want to grow your own pot. I can honestly say that if he had not joined the service, that i probably would have married that man. But instead our lives took seperate paths and he felt he had a higher calling so he went to war. SHAME ON ALL OF YOU!!!! SHAME SHAME SHAME!!!!! I know none of you will ever meet that man in person but he is a veteran who was horribly disabled because of his wonderful service to us and he needs your guys help now.
He was so nervous about joining a forum like this because of his military service but he finally chose to join this one because it is clean, organized, efficient and full of nice generous people. When i talked to him on the phone last night, he told me that he was quite impressed with the site, its just that he has a hard time watching the little people get looked over. He mearly wanted to draw attention to some improvements that need to be taken care of. He wasnt bashing anyone or this site, just mearly trying to further the available help to the newbies who dont understand. Do you think its fair that I should be able to ban you from this forum and further prevent you from receiving any help in growing your own medication?!?!?!? Do you like it when people try to step in and tell you how to run your life??? He feels betrayed by all of you and you all should be ashamed! I wrote Rollitup directly and have yet to get a reply, but the action that were taken were too extreme and completely wrong!!!
no offense, but it still does nothing to help, so why even post? if you have no info why not just....move along? not say anything?How about you just say
"Research things prior to asking questions, so you don't end up making threads like this."
Yeah!!! he actually mentioned you last night, and another member named Strangerdude something....! He said that he had met another military guy on the forum. He was super thrilled to hear that because he was so nervous about joining a forum based on this topic. Thank you so much for sticking up for him. He has mentioned great things about the Bubblehead Gang and that it prompted him and his girlfriend to take a hyrdo class over the weekend. You all have been so gracious and i wish i could take you all out to lunch!Hi Legal - I'm kind of confused by your post. All of the "Bubbleheads" came to this thread to stick up for Mob.

If you read a page or two back, you will also see that I posted that I very much appreciated his service and was in debt to him. I was in the Army myself from 72-76.

That is so sweet and kind of you! I just wish there was more i could do for him. I love that man to death but I cant see a way for him to rejoin the group. He was fascinated by the Bubbleponics idea and thats what prompted him to try hydropoincs. I will tell him this afternoon, that you all said "hi" from the bubblehead gang. He will enjoy hearing that some people still care and remember him. Im starting to see why he only joined this forum and not anythig grow site. I think his italian temperment gets the best of him sometimes. Plus i know for a fact that opiates can sometimes raise a persons patience threshold...he just doesnt have a solid connection to get any pot to counteract the pain killers he takes. That is why he needs the help of this forum.We just want to help a person in need. It's our thing and it works to make us better also. Peace
