You could not be more incorrect if you attempted to. I do not hate life, I love life. I do not hate people, though there are a few I do dislike, but for the most part I love people. I also very much enjoy helping people, which is why when the last site I spent most of my time on went down I picked RIU to spend most of my time on. I have never seen a growing site filled with so many people with so little factual information about growing, and I have been a member of numerous boards, been a mod on two and an admin on one. I felt the members of this site, and the site itself, needed more help than any other I ran across, so I joined.
Since joining more and more highly intolerant people who are fact-phobic have joined and the atmosphere here has gone way downhill. The site has gone from bad to worse as more and more new members have joined and what was once fun for me has now turned more into frustration due to the near total lack of willingness of many here to accept scientifically proven horticultural facts about cannabis plants and instead mainly are only willing to accept and believe myths, urban legends, misconceptions, half-truths, total inaccuracies and old hippie folklore, but the very same people will soak up every new, or at least new to them, voodoo method of growing that is posted faster than a sponge soaks up water.
What you do not like is I am not a kiss ass. I am a straight talking rough as a cob old guy who calls a spade a spade, period, three end. I have zero tolerance for kiss asses or know it all's who in fact know little to nothing.
As for Smelly's party cup results, possibly you did miss where I said I am impressed and tossed in a BRAVO, so it is not as if I slammed him or anything. I just see that sort of growing as being a waste of time, a waste of yield and a needless risk regardless of if someone sees it as being fun.
If you cannot deal with truth and facts stated in a straightforward blunt manner without whipped cream, nuts and a cherry on top then please use the ignore function so you will never have to read another message of mine.
Merry Christmas!
