moderation is the most under-discussed thing on this board

Meta

moderation is the most under-discussed thing on this board. It is the sort of thing everyone half-believes and nobody writes down.

Proposed a rule change here with actual wording and it was adopted. That is the process working and it is not fast.

Had a post removed, went to modmail, got a specific explanation and disagreed with it politely. It stayed removed and I understood why.

Read the ranking formula out of scepticism and reproduced the ordering in a spreadsheet. It does what it says.

Research-use-only material is not approved for human use and nothing here should be read as a recommendation to use it.

best — the order this archive was captured in

u/malin_petrescu-4 points·3 months ago

Submissions older than a year are archived: readable, linkable, and closed to new comments. That keeps a three-year-old thread from being reopened with a reply nobody will see in context.

nobody here is paid, including the moderators

Disagreeing with this bit: making individual cases public by default is worse for the person being moderated.

Push back: the ranking is not hiding anything. The formula is published and you can reproduce the ordering.

this place sells nothing and takes nothing from any supplier

Correction: that rule applies to the vendor boards specifically, not site-wide. The wording is on the rules page.

evidence rules are strict here on purpose

About c/meta

Site governance in public: rule changes, moderation decisions and appeals, how the ranking works, wiki maintenance, sponsor disclosure, and the periodic argument about whether c/vendorvetting evidence standards are too strict. They are not.

c/meta rules
  1. Moderation appeals go through modmail first; Meta is for policy, not individual cases.
  2. Rule-change proposals need a concrete wording suggestion.
  3. Sponsor and disclosure questions are always answered publicly.
  4. Independent community. Nobody here sells anything, and anyone who tries is banned.
  5. Not medical advice. Describe what you did; never prescribe to a stranger.
  6. Claims need evidence. Batch numbers, dated screenshots, independent test reports, or a citation.
  7. No referral links, discount codes or affiliate URLs. Permanent ban, no appeal.
  8. No contact handles, wallet addresses or tracking numbers — they identify people.
  9. Be recognisably decent. Disagree hard, insult nobody.
Moderators
Volunteers. Unpaid, unaffiliated, and reachable through modmail only.
Before you read on

Several compounds discussed on GLP Research Hub are sold for research use only and are not approved for human use anywhere. Nothing here is medical advice and none of it is written by your clinician. If a post reads like an instruction, treat it as a description of what one stranger did.
