[Rules] proposal: auto-flair any vendor post with no batch number

Rules Receipts ×1

proposal: auto-flair any vendor post with no batch number. Short post, long comment section, probably.

A rule-change proposal needs replacement wording because that is what can be evaluated. Without it there is nothing to compare against the current text.

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

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

If somebody has the same thing measured a different way, post it next to mine and we will see whether they agree.

The evidence standard on the vendor boards requires a document, a date or a named service behind any claim about a supplier. It is what makes those threads worth reading years later.

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

Yes. Nobody here is paid and the disclosure page says so in tedious detail, which is the correct level of tedious.

Adding the practical note — the formula is published and you can reproduce the ordering yourself.

Who does this help, and who does it cost?

vendor source pages link storefronts and the link is marked

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.
