@W1zzard - It's 2025. You really need to come up with a solution for new account spam postings. Like yesterday.

I feel for you W1zz, and mod team... sun is barely up at your place and you have to deal with a forum raid...

I just question, what drives someone to behave like that. Best not to ask.

That frustrated kid was one of the bigger B/S/T people and probably the best person to work with when doing business. I get where he's coming from but feels like both sides had an overreaction. Just being honest.

One is tired of spam, one is tired from lack of sleep. Not a good combo.

Woke up at 4AM, can't sleep, too much work. Not sure why OP though he'd be a smartass and assume we're not aware of it


Just some frustrated kid I guess

looks like it's case mod gallery forum that isn't checking for multiple threads and new accounts, fixing perms there should help avoid another incident in the future. good luck and appreciate all you do for us :toast:

Oh I didn't mean Tofu, just the kid that raided the forum. Hope misunderstanding clears up soon

Fixed now, but there's always ways some person can do bad things, just a question how much effort they put into it

No worries, some people think this kind of stuff never happens or that someone is always online to make them feel safe. The internet is still a deep dark place.

I don’t know your situation but I have used Kava tea for some non-alcohol relaxation, plus the other natural things. A good nights sleep is always a good thing.

It doesnt appear to be habit forming, however it might interact with certain pharmaceuticals with the liver so take caution.

Read this article on it

Best of luck to you with your business!

Reporting it to the mods of the particular forum helps, ive seen spammers last year and it seemed to die down until I saw this thread

None, I have made the Yogi tea for over 10 years, we have “Kava houses” now that are like coffee shops used to be where they serve the mouth numbing high doses that taste terrible but the tea is like cinnamon herbal.

What move? Sure, his tone was uncalled for, but I do think there was a bit of overreaction on both sides. This calamity could have easily been avoided with some honest conversation. Shame people don't do that nowadays.

Edit: Also, it's often the people shouting the loudest who are in need of someone to ask "are you okay? Do you want to talk?" Now, that won't happen.
