8FAD4B2E-47BF-4D2E-8571-7F559790F111.jpegHere’s some pics of the night rider. Gave a buddy a cut and he thought he lost it, planted this mystery cut and ended up being the lady! Man she smells so good, way more gassy this time with that sweet chai tea on the back end. Greasy mama. I love the differences.5774D41B-DE34-47CA-8871-C927D5F6F98C.jpeg 5B50C287-550A-4700-8532-CF4CDCAA7461.jpeg0F622E80-8CE5-4466-9696-40ED86498A99.jpeg

I can't believe he would just cut everyone's nuggets for good without a reasonable explanation to everyone and at least try to make it up in some kinda way!

and if that is the case then unfortunately I think I'm done with GPS for good and that kinda sucks bc I wanted to try that city slicker cross!

A tiered appreciation program that rewards you handsomely for logging in daily and writing garbage content for reviews led a lot of people to abuse the system. It obviously isn't going to be a sustainable business model regardless of how low his overhead might be. He probably looked at the number of nuggets out there growing and growing for months and months stressing out about it. I'm sure whatever heat he's taking is worth it for his peace of mind.

If you're upset with anyone it should be the diamond members taking advantage of the situation. Sniping auctions, for seeds they know will probably sit in a fridge or freezer for the better part of a decade or never be grown, at just the cost of shipping. The guys that could've paid full price and still used nuggets they got by abusing the program are why he had to make the change. If you're one of those guys I have no ill will against you, don't give two fucks about nuggets tbh.

I know I'd take pulling back the nuggets system on the chin to ensure my seedbank had a chance to stay open in a heartbeat.

actually I won 30 bucks in nuggets from the monthly photo contest, and the reward was 30 bucks now it's just gone!

Night Rider has worked out well here and is similar to Black Gold or some Copper Chem. Never nanners or nuts in a couple runs at my house. Friends and family really liked it. Even bought another pack later. Will have to see if it’s the same solid performer as it is a more recent pack.

Seems that reviews of strains has soured a bit since the shitstorm also. Doors of perception opening from different rooms into a new place. It really shouldn’t surprise anyone that some strains are similar to each other as they are all half sisters.

The whole episode and nuggets fiasco and cc crap and stunning change in service is bewildering. Doubt I’ll be back for more soon.

I think that pretty much sums it up, I remember the first time i got on the site that was one thing that went through my head "at some point all this is gonna add up and overwhelm the system" and I believe thats where we're at.

Raindance #1 from the outdoor garden chopped earlier this past week. Stood up to the New England outdoor conditions quite well with no PM in sight which is surprising. Grown alongside this one was pheno #2 the one with pink pistils that I posted up a picture of some pages back. I didnt take any harvest pics of #2 but the colas were just as fat if not fatter than this #1 but not as frosty. This #1 has a really nice OG smell to it that I think will get stronger as it dries

I try not to assume the worst of his intentions in the absence of information from him.

It is easier/cheaper to keep existing customers than it is to get new ones. Marketing 101.

Clearly, price is a big driver for Greenpoint customers.
He knows that and knows that changing the price formula for sales will have to stay in the sweet spot regardless of how buyers get there.
He also knows people with equity stored in nuggets will expect to be made right. If he doesn't have a plan for that yet, it makes sense that he is working on one.

What is not happening right now is communication.
This can quickly create problems for a community trained to expect regular, direct interaction with a vendor. Especially with a group of persistent, tireless detractors stoking the flames of discontent any time he slips up.

@Gu~ needs to get his shit together and come back in here and explain things to his customer base. I believe that he will.

BTW: Congrats on the nuptials. Ally seems like a keeper.
:clap:

Looks fire! As much as I hate this guys business practices now and how he lies about shit he does have some fire. Needs to pull the reigns back on the trump style business management and get back to what made him what he is. Solid strains crossed to a proven male where the customer comes first . I only bought one pack from him and was wedding cake shit 1s and when I complained he jumped All over me and I was pissed but he eventually made it right. Maybe he will see what everyone is saying and listen and do it the right way where people aren’t questioning everything because your just trying to make a buck off the backs of the people who made you who you are. Stop the bullshit and steer the ship back around. Customers first with solid TESTED genetics. I have packs from @Gu from what I presume are his flagship/solid strains. Cookies n Chem, OBS, Bodega Bubblegum, Copper Chem. Why not work the lines and turn it into something to be proud about and fix your situation. Fast money schemes never work and people might come back and buy packs if you show you care and you have reliable tested products. I was going to pop a bunch of these packs next but I’m shook as with alll that has gone on I don’t even know if I trust that’s what is in the packages anymore. Sorry for the novel !
