Highlights from this day
  • vial_ledger — the mods maintain the log. the room supplies the evidence and argues about it, which is the correct division 15:43
  • oasis_ola — unrelated but verification has never been for sale and never will be. offers get posted publicly with the sender redacted 16:05
  • oasis_ola — if you want to help, buy a lot, test it, and post the report with the lot number. that is the whole contribution 18:31
EO

a verified supplier can still ship you a bad vial. verification is about the record, not about your parcel

TS

a referral link is disqualifying because it makes the reporter an interested party. that is all

EO

i have watched this standard hold for three years including when it was inconvenient for a popular supplier

VL

the point of the standard is that it applies to suppliers we like as well as ones we do not

VL

the mods maintain the log. the room supplies the evidence and argues about it, which is the correct division

EO

somebody once offered to fund the testing programme in exchange for an entry. the offer is in the log

OO

unrelated but verification has never been for sale and never will be. offers get posted publicly with the sender redacted

TS

right so we have never revoked on a single result. we have revoked on a pattern

if the evidence is thin the entry says the evidence is thin. that is more useful than a score

OO

if you want to help, buy a lot, test it, and post the report with the lot number. that is the whole contribution

TS

blinded submissions carry more weight because they remove a variable, not because we distrust the labs

thats not evidence
