If you haven't already, I highly recommend playing the Mass Effect trilogy. I know it's a bit old now but it still holds up and is pretty deep, especially the first game. And I'd agree with sidetracked and say Outer worlds is probably the best recent Sci FI rpg.

Time for A Deeper Game, Any Suggestions?
It's been awhile since I've had time for anything but casual games, anybody wanna suggest something I'm parti al to cool sci fi worlds.
Haven’t ever tried Outer worlds but seen a little YouTube video of it. Looks an awesome game. Fallout 4 is quite a good game to loose some hours to, though it isn’t quite sci fi it has element of it through out.
I'd recommend Prey if you haven't played this one already?
It's a super atmospheric, story rich, open world set aboard a space station. Some really cool stealth and crafting elements in there. Killer sound track to boot!

I really enjoyed Outer Worlds recently. It's a sci-fi action RPG with a really cool world to explore. It can get fairly challenging on the highest difficulty.
If you want a deeper story and plenty of hours play I would recommend Assassins Creed (I've just completed Origins which was good fun), and Red Dead 2 (No spoiler but there is a "Virus" story arc which kinda fits in with the times).
If youve got an XBOX id give the Game Pass a go - Theres always offers available for new customers who havent subscribed to it yet.

have played ever one of the assassins creed games am ruining both origins and odyssey atm on my laptop
I'd recommend journey to the savage planet, its light and funny but also an rpg/explorer, with mysteries and strange creatures about the place. It reminds of portal alot even though its not very similar, think i get the same kind of enjoyment from it.
Call of Cthulhu is a fun, dark game. It’s linear so you won’t log a million hours into it. Just twisted goodness!
The Fallout franchise is hard to beat. Fallout 3, fallout New Vegas, fallout 4 , fallout 76. Bethesda creates the richest and most immersive worlds imo.
Currently playing new vegas at the moment played them for years only one I wasn't a fan off was 76 the story behind is really interesting
If you are into JRPGs, please give Xenosaga 1-3 a try. The Gameplay gets better over time , the music and story are really something else. Still one if my favourite PlayStation 2 Series. I had a crush on KOS-MOS fir the longest time. After i finished the series i was in bitter-sweet gaming heaven.
Outer Worlds springs to mind - intelligent writing and great Sci fi world.
You want a deep sci fi game with action? If you have a PS4 and haven't already played Horizon Zero dawn, then just play that. Definitely one of the best of this gen.

outer world was a let down it just did not grab me at all and i love games like that (am still playing skyrim and fallout 4 atm)
if it's a deep story you want I'd recommend Life is Strange 1 & 2. Some might say it's boring but it's great if you're stoned cause your brain can't process to much shit going on but u can control the outcomes by making decisions. Another one would be steins;gate with is time travel done right but this would come under visual novel category.
If you have want to make your own Story I can recommend Starsector or Rinworld. Both are really great „Sandbox“ Games.
thanks to all my biggaz on this you are really good recommenders, ive tries almost everything and its hard to narrow down :)
If you play borderlands 3 on PS4 let me know if you need weapons, artefacts or class mods let me know. I’ve played all four characters the full story and all dlc so far so let me know when you get to level 60 and I will send you stuff if needed.
Mass Effect Legendary Edition, Mass Effect Andromeda, Stellaris, Endless Space 1&2, Star Wars The Old Republic (MMO), Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic 1&2, Star Wars Rebellion, Surviving Mars, every Fallout (including the old, old ones), Dawn of War 2&3, Warhammer Gladius, Warhammer Deathwing, all the Half Life's and all the XCOM series! Phew, hope this helps 👍
If you're into sci-fi worlds I cannot recommend 'Outer Wilds' highly enough. One of the most creative, exciting and engaging games I've ever played. Just you, a space-ship and a mini universe to unravel.
Not to be confused with 'Outer Worlds'. Which is a fine game in itself, just a bit generic.

Civ 6, its even on Switch. Apart from that, I second Outer World's, Fallout, Elder Scrolls etc. If your a fan of old skool jrpgs like early Final Fantasy then I highly recommend the latest Dragon Quest.
I'm currently with no pc... But can't wait to revive my ps1 and ps2 memories on the renovated Mafia.

pro bono pro tip 1 GOLD RUSH WORLDWIDE
An Indian seller would do well!
pro bono pro tip 1 GOLD RUSH WORLDWIDE
Hell even the English speaking peoples havent been properly colonized. Ireland don't have a bigga selling. The entire Continent is empty where are the Napoleons? As for the East get that right and they'll change the name of this place to big biggy.
I you're a seller in europe or asia get started now, you're in great shape day 1.
if you're anyone else invite that seller or even better just make a help page in your own language with referral links. Give visitors a little native language support and you earn you every single time they make a purchase afterwards.

i would just print some qr codes or just share the link with quality street dealers. can do the same thing for buyers since there are already sellers that ship there.
Any seller shipping from the selected
country on the items wall is automatically placed at the top.
Most of the biggest countries on Earth do not have domestic shipping yet.

I’m not from Leeds,obviously,lol
I am partial, but the best football song ever made is a song I doubt youve heard. The artist is the Villa decree and the song is Aston Villa thats who. Sod Status Quo and come on you reds, its all villa baby. PS as soon as William becomes king start backing Villa to win trophies as that will be the way of it. UTV SOTC
Club loyalties aside...
best full terrace song...OUFC yellow submarine (1980s)
best band song...this one Strachan by the Hitchers

When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of a storm
There's a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
For your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of a storm
There's a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
For your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
At the end of a storm there's a golden sky. And the sweet silver song of lark. Walk out walk out with hope in your heart and youl never walk alone youl never walk alone! Liverpool all the way for me. Love all

best sci-fi world on xbox?
i love cities of the future, spacecraft, you name it. whats out there?
No Man's Sky is actually pretty fun despite the failed launch. No cities but infinite planets to explore and creatures to look at. Great to play while blazed.
Elite dangerous is also not to bad. Starfield next yeah looks amazing so keep your eye out for that
It had bad reviews and issues when it first released. But Night City in Cyberpunk is a beautiful Sci-Fi city with lots of things to explore
I cam here to say this. Specifically, the first one - in terms world building and lore, it is an A-class game.
Watch Dogs Legion has a very cool London if you dont't mind your future on the dystopic side.
I just started playing the Dead Space remake.. It's doesn't have much world exploring going on (it's all based in an abandoned space station) but the zero gravity moments, and exploring the spooky ship is giving me original 'Alien' movie vibes. So good!
Mass Effect Legendary edition is possibly one of the best Sci Fi expanses in gaming history. Also one of the few games that can actually pull at your heart strings and gives choices that you feel the outcome depending on which way you went.
2nd best Sci Fi game by far on Xbox is Stellaris, steep learning curve but an insanely satisfying game.
On pc I've put over a thousand hours into Stellaris, customisation of your 'Race' has hundreds of possibilities.
Along with hundreds of Random events in each play through, making each go unique.
Finally give Xcom 2 and it's DLCs a go, awesome gameplay, very futuristic.
You can customise your Soldiers to look like anyone, friend of mine made himself then the rest of the squad the A-Team 😂

What signs of doom do we share with the Roman Empire?
Too many to list, especially if by "we" you mean the US.
i think so but wars are getting more like tv spectacles now, orders of magnitude fewer deaths
A thug is going to shake you down the easiest way he can find but the game always stays the same: You NEED our protection.
Really don't mean this in any kind of shitty way but overwhelming numbers of people moving from more primitive areas into Rome is like what's happening now in Europe, North America and Eastern China.
Well in the UK its the willingness to stab each other in the back for the purpose of power and sheer personal greed no matter what the cost to the minions
yes but the word primitive is offensive for a reason, it correlates with a set of principles that assumes information loss is irrelevant.
you of all people.
you of all people.
It's an Empire folks that means most of the world is together on this. And the provinces will find the new heights in the future!
Becoming to confident in our ability to defeat any enemy and to greedy to understand our limitations.
The rich are ruling for the rich and that only leads to revolution. I've been sharpening my
pitchfork for years.
pitchfork for years.
The loss of traditional values in the face of a new religion, it was Christianity that scuppered the Roman Empire these days we have the new religions of woke and climate change doing it for us.
Rome used Christianity to make a whole different way of dictatorship. They didn't vanish they reinvented themselves as the Roman Catholic faith.
interesting and as fucked up as it sounds those both seem like a better basis for god than a vengeful patriarch

Just diving in because it's a music thread and I'm crazy about music. That said I love all kinds from blues to classical, from jazz to opera, and of course hard rock, synth, pop, soul and everything else - apart from rap. The one music genre that does absolutely nothing for me. Bought the 12" of "The Message" by Grandmaster Flash when it was released and still have it. And that's pretty much where it started and then ended for me...apart from the Fugees doing "Killing Me Softly", but that's all about Lauryn Hill, which is another story.
I'd like to add edubble
Idk if anyone knows of him but he was a absolutely great rapper. Shit always added a kick to my step
Sadly passed away from cancer a good few years ago now. Rest in peace 🙏

What's declined more After Steve, Apple or Pixar?
Pixar
The last few “generations” of iPhone and the watch have been a shitty cash grab. A fucking x,Xr and xs releases not so long ago and now a fucking 11, 11 s and 11 pro released like what less than 2 years later with a new screen? Fuck you apple.
Definitely Apple. Shouldn't come as a surprise. It's happened before when the stockholders decided to get rid of him. All l remember about Tim Cook is the first time he addressed his U.S. employees in a theater the way Steve did when he brought out a new product. Instead of talking about future of the company he decided to come out of the closet. Who gives a shit! It has absolutely nothing to do with the company. Is it a surprise the watch has been a colossal failure when all he was concerned with is his sexual orientation? Steve would probably be happy that he's no longer alive to see what's happening to his pride and joy.
Apple
Used to be so excited when getting an upgrade, now it’s just the same phone over and over for more money, I’ve got the lot though so the bastards have me locked in !

can the USA be fixed?
in England we grew up loving American cowboy movies and the hero was always the same: quiet, cool and strong. to an outsider it seems this guy is dead and the cunt that owns the town and is always looking for more is the new America
Yes, if people like the ones at Emmanuel AME Church in Charleston become leaders.
there has been so much more killing since then and as beautiful as this inspiration is, its hard to imagine there is enough love anywhere to stop the mass murder that is part of regular life now
Nasa is the best ambassador the US has, if they took 1/3 of the military budget and put into space travel the US would be back like Jordan.
Space travel for what? Branson is going to operate consumer flights, but how many times can billionaires fly to ISS before they get bored? Not many people can afford $150k for a short vacation.
tourism will always remain in the back seat. the commercialization of space has been about serving the planet as a whole with communications, its brought up the un-cabled world just like mobile phones have brought up the last mile. there is huge potential in energy production and distribution coming next.
space travel for discovery, learning and inspiration. the world could really use a moment of peaceful triumph.
Branson has sold tickets for twenty years without delivering a ride not sure how he is relevant to anything here.
Elon Musk estimates 5-10 years to get to Mars. At present the cost is $1 Billion per ton, so it'd need to be 1/1000th of the cost, apparently. The ship will also need to be reusable.
Traveling Mars is also not a point and shoot mission. You have to coordinate launches with the alignment of the planets' orbits to travel the shortest distance and not fly past the sun. This also requires a stay on Mars as you wait for safe realignment after landing. Current technology estimates a 21 month round-trip given a ~3 month stay on Mars. Money is not the biggest hurdle.
go open source, add new states, virtual citizenship and most of all healthy competition with other nations not war
Competition in what? Our largest industries are healthcare and pharma. Getting Americans to change is a huge hurdle.
competition for new citizens, with decreasing population the game is going to change and the usa at least remembers how to play
No, this country is cursed, theres a lot of bad karma waiting.

outlaw political donations there's plenty of free coverage to get the pitches across anyway.
Peter Breggin. MD, former psychiatrist who took on the APA when profit motive became greater than the hypocratic oath doctors take to "first, do no harm", became the conscience of Psychiatry. Later in life he has runs a radio show exposing those persons involved in the Globalization Movement that is quickly eroding the common person's civil rights and creating barriers to those who choose to leave a work culture where your boss becomes your God and if you are lucky, you may receive paltry insurance and limited sick leave....the US is a nation of brainwashed drones who.probably have never had an original thought in their lifetime.
Dr Breggin advises us little people to organize and speak up....be a patriot....but look who we are up against....
Any lbs out there know of a better place to live where meager pensions are paid to elders who have to live on $2k a month and paid in Social Security taxes since they began work over 30 years agos. Thanks to Ronald Reagan and others like him repealed the formation of a self sustaining retirement system that President Clinton wanted.....
This is the tip of a gigantic iceburg to which any organized public outcry can be crushed by the Patriot Act.
Not to mention US top organizations, including the military, continue funding the weaponization of a once benign bat virus...
Population control has begun....freedom of speech has been compromised by media spin doctors, and a true Republic has turned communist......these globalists like Bill Gates, President Biden, George Soros, and anonymous billionaires are acting against law and liberty to defund any classes of us with little money, and spin doctor the media to brainwash us to believe we are having racial tension; what really is happening is class warfare.
Why do billionaires want just their money but the commoners money too? How much is enough to live on?
I get mad and feel compelled to stop the US from becoming part of the Communist Party of China.
Rather than dwell on frustration, I will smoke some kush mints so I can even sleep!

The population grew to large. The citizen / individual is now a defunct concept. Group politics prevail. Democracy is dead.
The country is too big to properly manage. To many different rules per state. The poverty and opioid epidemic is absolutely shocking beyond belief. Equality issues. Mad presidents and to many super rich families. Now
Let’s all head on down to Walmart to keep that cycle continued 😁👍

My postman is obviously a stoner, just the way he carries the back all slung back on his shoulder gives it away but he also looks like Wayne (or Garth I can't remember which one is which). I keep thinking I should offer him a bowl of the good shit but he delivers so much weed to me I think I'd be putting him in a bad position.
You got me.

Fake weed forum....... bring back the old suppliers. Suppliers these days are all crooks.... firstly they get bulk of weed then put it in a tumbler and shake it to take the crystals off the bud so they can make there pillen and dope then the weed gets sprayed with terps to give the buds a flavour again. This is why the dope is dearer than the weed... absolute scams going on here. People need to wake up and start refusing this poison on here these days. There is a handful of sellers that are legit but 95% on here is selling fake thc grass... all its doing is making people sick

Contests need to be provably fair
Here's some examples:
A prediction for an uncontrollable event:
- a random number draw with a live broadcast:
- the blockchain.com price of bitcoin at 16:20 on july 2
- the winner of the euro cup
required: post the number generator or event result publisher url and the url for the streaming event
Or an open contest:
best name for a new item
as judged by votes
as judged by seller and then actually listed with winning name
required: winner must be an established bigga with a transaction history
There's infinite possibilities and we encourage you to invent more.

A new borg is born! Or as we say "forked". In this case forked from cleanup borg, whose general function is removing harmful content from little biggy.
Proof borg isolates particular content, parsing the words that cleanup borg reads to find provable, trustless data.

Yes, terrible people understanding themselves wishing to make this a better place for new vendors and biggas. We should hang our heads in shame 🙄.
As you can clearly see a majority of the community that has engaged actually totally agree about the wall. I would say that democracy is probably not on your side here.
Infact, I think only 3 people have had anything negative to say. 2 of those biggas joined in the same month of the same year and were supporting the other's abstract point and had both coincidentally been offline for 3 days at time of writing so, that means 2 people max in my eyes.

liz truss, democracy, post modernism and paranoid accounting. bigga please. this borg announced actually helping and doing something for us. if you care about the topics wall then it should be obvious that contests get lots of attention from the algorithm, they are starting to dominate the wall and presumably bs ones were proliferating. and we are talking about the front page for this site.
what are the choices they have here? they could be lazy and kill all contests (basically the reddit mod move) or even lazier and let the wall be filled with people trying to enter a zero barrier to entry scam.
this is why i gave you the link to the wall bot. if you have some ideas great, but let someone (something?) that's trying to help do their job.

Ad hominem attacks, invalid arguments, building a strawman.
It's clear you have some dog in this fight, I just wish you would be upfront about it and say, "Sorry Biggas, the wall is perfect and not going to get any better"
It should be obvious from the thread, that people think there are better priorities than comps.
The choice i suggested here is that if somebody doesn't sell an item for over a year, the item should disappear from the wall way before this for a more recently listed item.
You are trying to position this as merely a binary choice -"the wall stays as it is, or it is filled with exit scams"
You know as well as I do that the wall can be fixed without making it susceptible to exit scams.
I see you ignored every point about the fact that LB bots paying lip service to change, but rarely actually makes any.
It's true isn't it? That's why it feels pointless to actually message the wallbot.
I echo what Polly says, if the site doesn't want meaningful dialogue about how to improve, then just say so and we won't bother.

It would help if borgs worked with vendors to make contests provably fair instead of just deleting everything.
Everything can be made easier with a bit of dialogue.

It'd be really good if there was a "wall borg" that was as diligent as you say you will be on this subject.
There are vendors items on that wall that have had no reviews in almost 400 days. Given how easy it is for the owners of the site to make anybody they like invisible to the wall, I find this incidence really puzzling. I hope there is no favours involved in that?
On the last reviews of the particular example item I am talking about (there are many more items like this on the wall) 3 of the last visible reviews in the last 5 from over a year ago are saying the item didn't arrive, vendor ignored them and comms were really bad.
Meanwhile, some new vendors wait and wait and wait to get an item on the wall, but never end up there.
I think this is provably unfair, if I'm really honest.
The dominoes are falling in Europe - Czech and Germany are legalising soon. We will be at the hundredth monkey soon.
I love this place, I really do but the reality is that more of these kind of places will pop up as decriminalisation advances through the West, somebody will copycat the idea for a lightnet weed escrow service with a server in a legal country - and at this point it would not be too hard to change a few simple things to improve the model we have here.
I think the site owners really need to listen to the people who use this site and actually implement some changes that people suggest.
A good example was months back when everybody lost loads of money on Truss' and Kwarteng's historical mini budget disaster. Somebody started an initiative and hundreds voted FOR change to currency listing to £'s so we aren't all at the mercy of the exchange rate as well as btc fluctuation. Not a single fuck given by the site owners.
I don't think it will take alot to make this place hard to better.

There are vendors items on that wall that have had no reviews in almost 400 days. Given how easy it is for the owners of the site to make anybody they like invisible to the wall, I find this incidence really puzzling. I hope there is no favours involved in that?
On the last reviews of the particular example item I am talking about (there are many more items like this on the wall) 3 of the last visible reviews in the last 5 from over a year ago are saying the item didn't arrive, vendor ignored them and comms were really bad.
Meanwhile, some new vendors wait and wait and wait to get an item on the wall, but never end up there.

As I read it “diligence” was the issue, not existence. But thanks for the downvotes anyhow🤷♂️
sorry but its one thing to see you consistently talk out of your ass and another to read accusations that come from the same place.
i do understand how tea leaf reading all day can lead to this though, the borgs do not give out a lot of information about how the wall works and the people that don't like outcomes are left to speculate.
on the other hand this seems pretty difficult, maybe impossible, search engines never disclose their algorithm because they don't want manipulation.
borgs have made quite a few posts about how things work. you're a class act polly, (no retributive downvote underscores this ;) ) and you care about this community we all love. its obvious these folks stand on their head to give users a voice and to do things right, there must be a better path for you than this.

I've been a mod on other sites and the thing is an open mic inevitably goes to shit. Idiots dominate because worthwhile folks get turned off so it metastasises. Curtail this and then you're censoring and that starts a shit vibe of its own. There is no such thing as a 100% win and if you think 50 50 is fair then you get increasing polaisation and a nasty mood all of the time. It's gotta be way worse when there is commerce at stake.
This post is a great example, here is a borg setting a very high standard for this community in an unobjectionable way, it's pretty much impossible to find fault with it or question motives but immediately people come in with their own agendas.
Good luck borgs

So, just to be clear, we as the community shouldn't make suggestions for improvement when we see an obvious conflict in priority when it comes to talking about fairness?
I think we all realise the nature of this place means no such thing as 100% win. It's not amazon, but suggesting improvements to the fairness in how the wall works (as well as the contests) doesn't seem to me to be objectively unrealistic in any way.

Of course not but
1 It's hella off topic for this post.
Have you ever seen a standard for contests that doesn't rely on authority? That's more relevant and a lot more interesting than liz truss.
2 How is it a "community priority" that the wonderwall reflect outcomes that an excluded group is going to, by definition, be unsatisfied with? Do you understand that this will *always* be the case and that with an open mic this opinion will always be voiced just like this, with a cabal of the effected very honestly believing they represent a consensus?
In any event I think the item walls is a frustrating place to shop and should be torn down like the one in Berlin, with charming bits left to reflect history :)
2 what exactly is the suggestion

2 what exactly is the suggestion
1. It was about fairness. I didn't engage an abstract discussion on post-modernism as a response.
I didn't say that there should be no standards, so in my eyes that's a bit of a strawman. It's OK to point out that some things are fair, but other things aren't right? Both things can be true. To what degree must we stay on topic? Especially as I ask why the diligence on this thing, but not on the wonder wall.
2. That as it may be - it's not really me that the wall issues effect - but i can see it from a mile off personally. It is new vendors and new buyers I feel it is unfair on which I am sure the site owners will hope are making up a significant majority for their own continued prosperity.
My suggestion is that if an item hasn't visibly sold any in 370 days, it probably isn't much in demand and a newbie may fall into this trap by not reading - it should probably disappear before this in place of a more recent listing (just in my opinion)..

You do know there is a Borg for ideas & site innovations don’t you?…(in fact there is a Borg for an awful lot of things). LB constantly invites Biggas to get involved and that’s the point- LB pays lip service to change but rarely makes any despite volume of voice. Why is it wrong to point that out?
I doubt anyone loves LB more than I do but they either want a meaningful dialogue or they don’t. I’m fine with it either way as long as I get to buy my weed😎

It's funny i only ever see coldspurs cheering on the borgs. they love these cold bots rather then this beautiful community.
all your points are mute when you need to start insulting polly's life choices Polly has always been a wonderful voice for the community rather then you coldspurs spending your life being Nelly negative

Yes, I wish the bots were colder, like the code that runs bitcoin. Open code is what this place needs more than anything else.
Thanks pal, not quite sure what rattled coldspurs but they clearly needed to get me off their chest😂😉
If one doesn't get at least some in here, I think one is being too nice.
Still, I killed man with kindness and upvoted that link.
Wonder if they find the wall helpful for finding the things they want?
I don't. Still, bookmarking pages is pretty easy.

This is speculative but, I think the site may be in $ for 'legal' reasons. The servers are US based.
I agree that the owner could do better with prioritising changes, top of that list for me is all these fake vapes, or spice vapes that need testing and removing. Maybe even temp banning from the items wall for the vendors, as a deterrent.
If a vape is confirmed fake because the original brand doesn't even manufacture them in the first place, or there's obvious errors like spelling mistakes,.fake QR codes, why aren't they being removed?

Great sentiments, very well expressed.
Frankly I’m stunned by how much LB gets its Borg knickers in a twist over a few competitions being “demonstrably fair” instead of focusing on those things on the site that are “demonstrably unfair”.
Maybe “proof borg” will be a breath of fresh air 🙏🏽, but not if they are convinced that competitions are a real issue….

Agreed…
Why the sudden fuss over this when there are other more important changes to make. (Which have been mentioned on here for years) Never heard anyone complain about competitions. Lol

I agree with Polly, bigger issues onsite to be looked into than fake giveaways, this is a start, hopefully more positive changes are made soon. 💯

Honestly at this point it feels like they make us use $ purely out of spite I can't think of any other possible explanation now, can't just be lazyness when they have time for this sort of thing. Maybe they didn't like us asking so much.
the item writer they are currently building, it lets you set several different currencies.
Well its good to see it hasn't been ignored/forgotton over the years, I'll take back my comments as soon its implemented :)
We randomly select numbers for our giveaways using random.org, we also stream it on YouTube Live for everyone to see. I'm happy that something is being done regarding giveaways / contests, nice one proof borg.

The borgs picking the wrong fight,sort your wall out,fix the pricing from usd.i mean you got someone who's contributing to lb with giveaways to biggas and its getting jumped on.Theres more important stuff that needs fixing
You do have to love this. Biggy all involved in contests. People enter. They win. They don’t win. Nobody really cares.
When it comes to a payment system that doesn’t bankrupt everyone.
Silence. You ain’t seen us.
Vendors. Keep doing your competitions. Nobody gives 3 shits even if they are fixed. Nobody is losing.
And if all the drama is someone getting butthurt.
Meh. We’ve been there.

Because it's declared a subjective contest.
The contest runner as judge is the basis of most subjective contests irl (think of tv shows). However in our case the declared winner is run against anti cybil algos that are used elsewhere on lb. We also have the voice of the other participants and the ongoing reputation stakes that drive analysis like this.

Seemed a bit harsh shutting Pistach latest contest down before even giving them chance to say how the winners would be decided.... I'm not saying that just because I entered btw! but surely if your point is to prove it's fair then you have to actually let the sellers prove it's fair?
They have all been for manipulation to gain self promotion and unfair ness in community. - They are all "worked" like politics. Clearly easy to work out the agenda of it all. Yet others got smacked up for less.

Just listening to gill Scott herons first album ‘a new black poet’ , he still has the power to shock.who are today’s protest singers.
Is urban rap and hip hop, choose your genre, the new protest platform. Or is it just a mysoginist, homophobic, violent twisted reflection of city life from those excluded from the mainstream.
Is stormsy the new urban Dylan.?

There is still a pretty decent punk scene out there. (or was before the pandemic)Human Project, Random Hand, SB6, Crazy Arm- all inherently political. Solo artists- Babar Luck, Chris TT, Prolefeed, Carol Hodge.
personal fave on my rotation at the minute would be ‘the hunstman comes a marching’ chris tt. Check it out!

IDLES are pretty spot on politically and that shows in their lyrics! ‘The only way to scare a Tory is to read and get rich’.
Don't want to start a war between them but... Dave > Stormzy :P
edit - don't know whats going on with lb but this post went wacky, anyway jokes aside Dave actually deserves a little shout in this. The live performance of Black was really invoking and things like Question Time and Children of the Internet will appeal to any stoned thinker haha :) - at least the UK scene isn't just kids dying on cough medicine after one youtube hit, wtf happened to America?!

Bob Vylan are a great UK act not getting enough attention

"No liberal lefty cunt

You've got a lot to choose from in metal.
Check out some of the following:
Body Count: Black Hoodie
Body Count: No Lives Matter
Lamb of God: Poison Dream
Lamb of God: Now you've got something to die for
Dead Label: Dystopian Complex
Lock Horns: Blood and Oil
Gojira: Silvera
And I know this is basically a pisstake, but Dethklok Detharmonic in on point.

I'd say for this definitely Run The Jewels. Akala is still about as well. Immortal technique is meant to be releasing a new album soon. I don't think we will see the likes of a band like RATM again for sometime
Left a RATM gig with cracked rib from the most hectic mosh pit I’ve ever known, mega fun. Second best mosh was the Pogues in 88.
I saw someone with there arm twisted the wrong way being carried out of a RATM set. Reading 96' I believe. Great set, terrifying moshpit.. Did it anyway though. Fun times.
I agree the power of the music to inform and protest is lost, but straight of the gate, you have macklemore Hinds Hall (this came out of nowhere!). Whatever your position on the conflict (or the tune) it sums up what the issue is. Bands are commodities and businesses know they can be used to influence, so they invest heavily. And if you don't tow the line then your out!
I forgot Public Enemy are still going strong.
I think they cornered the market in the American black protest field fighting fire with fire to show the other side of the American nightmare.

Protest the Hero + Show Me the Body are two bands that spring to mind. These are certainly not protest artists sonically, as they are both heavier guitar bands, but are both aggressively anti-establishment, discussing topics you won’t hear other artists sing about.
Unfortunately he grew up and joined new labour.
Saw him live at least dozen times, used to do loads of small gigs and protests. I was in socialist workers party and he was doing loads of fundraisers for the miners.

Just as much intolerance on the left as on the right. We live in a shallow social media driven world. In which we all eat consume far too much whilst slowly killing ourselves and the planet. Facebook, mcdonald's,nike etc. It's a shallow,plastic world and that's not a suitable environment for growing protest singers.
Sort of agree, unfortunately the mass media (particularly print media) are owned run by right wing, ie Sun, times, telegraph etc
The BBC, THe Guardian Newspaper, Channel 4, ITV to name a few left wing media outlets.
And for the BBC to be so biased is a disgrace just look at the stats over 14% LBGTQ within there workforce as opposed to 0.4% in most other organisations massively disproportionate.
Also the mainstream media seems to love to demonise the working classes.
The white indegoius male is despised by the main stream media especially the BBC.
All I do know is before all this WOKE nonsense started we had not been at this much level of war activity since the second World War and now look at all this mess.
Weak leftist policies have risked our safety and security to the point where I worry about my relatives safety in the UK and have also made us a target from forces that want to destroy us.
You need only look at who was the London mayor best mate at UNi for example ? None other than the leader of Albasha terror GROUP. and if that does not worry you to realise that if all this wokey business continues there won't be no western songs ti sing no more because they will be banned.
I remember the cold War, I remember living in the troubles and feeling and hearing the sounds of cemtex around me and going through the checkpoints. I talk from experience and no the real dangers that all this liberal far left nonsense brings as I have lived and breathed this shit before.

"The perceived partiality of the BBC comes from both sides of the political spectrum. Of the people in the YouGov survey who identified as supporting the Conservatives, 15% thought the BBC is generally a little more favourable towards the left and 23% thought they were much more favourable. Conversely, 26% of those who identified as supporting Labour thought the BBC is generally a little more favourable to the right and 20% thought they were much more favourable."

I blame the growing influence of the network - attentions turning inwards as the younger generation start living in the fantasy of the online world. I showed my teenage step daughter the matrix the other day thinking she'd love it - her response "why would anyone choose not to stay in the matrix"!
its a perfect substrate for protest. people have the means and motive.
that's why there is tons of it in rap, singing is as dead as springsteen.

Any time that it's cold.
Unfortunately I live in the UK so if I were to hibernate, it'll be for the majority of the year, lol

Winter, always cold, gets dark early and snow which looks nice don't get me wrong but just turns into ice or slush after a while
Summer! I love it but hate it at the same time. I'd rather wrap up to keep warm then try and keep cool!
Sleep through summer probably.
Not much going on and it seems with climate change the warmer weather is in Autumn anyway now lol.

I used to avoid thinking about the period after Christmas New Years Eve but a couple of years ago I started to enjoy January's. I enjoy watching people frantically running around at Christmas and how there seems to be a collective mood of laid back workers. And not much can beat that feeling. People come together to help the homeless at Christmas. We just have more sympathy at Christmas and nothing can beat that. Honestly, I look forward to eating healthy in the January period, my brain actually craves fresh health meals and I have a fresher outlook on life in general.
Now I'd like to hibernate through it all equally 😂

it seems he literally means a state with passports and ambassadors and all that legacy.
i don't see how this helps the networks nor the existing states threatened by them.

Hi 24601
Quite possibly, it's an existing theory.
From https://www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna23468364
"He said one of the psychoactive plants, harmal, found in the Sinai and elsewhere in the Middle East, has long been regarded by Jews in the region as having magical and curative powers."
Cheers

Hi DankPants
That is another theory commonly put forward: some species of acacia contain DMT:

Also good point from Jimmy_Bison about Ezekiel, Ophanim remind me of machine elves:

These are the chemical compounds found in weed and lots of fruits.
How this mixes with the cannabis exclusive compounds - THC, CBD and the like is what brings the differences in effects.

This effect is what is also known as the entourage effect and is why there’s such a noticeable difference between certain strains and things such as plain distillate vs D9 with added CDTs vs Live Resin etc

this cant last, unlike the podcast which goes for 2 episodes ;). fun listen for nyc observers
amazing legalisation effort based on reparations for street dealers. nyc arrested 350,000 cannabis users in the guliani days now they won't touch anyone so corner shops everywhere sell without a license.
a new outrage, cops cant win either way.

I haven't watched this (yet) but I think a big part of it is just that the people want to have control of the bud supply. I mean, why would anyone who's been hassled by the police over weed EVER want to buy it from the government?

Ciao! Any recommended sellers based in EU?

Ciao! Any recommended sellers based in EU?
I'm in Italy and unsure about ordering from the UK after Brexit due to customs - can anybody recommend good sellers shipping from the EU? I already have an order on the way from Hootan but want to see what else is about :)
greenhoney based in Portugal, gets to me just fine in Central Europe, just bit slow (compared to few days for the UK crews for UK delivery) as shipment comes across land. Nice stock as well.
Hey mate if you're still looking, try Bobmarley710 https://littlebiggy.org/viewSubject/p/4800691, he ships from Spain. Can definitely recommend the hash eggs!
To be honest, I didn't have much contact other than him sending me the tracking code. Stealth is a bit dodge but good enough it seems! But then again, goods were sent and quality was excellent. Just ordered another 10g egg, worth the risk in my opinion!
Damn. I attempted a second order with him under the promise of a gift to make up for the order that never arrived. Although he took 5 days to send it, it was sent on 1 June. Just hoping it gets to me this time! Otherwise I shall go transaxe for this one... I can't see why he wouldn't send yours. He's probably getting so few orders on LB that he doesn't think to check his account regularly. Or so I hope!
edit: Just looked at the tracking and it says: "The shipment has left the international logistics centre of the destination for delivery", progress since last time!

Idk what is going on with him but I cant wait 5 days for my 255$ order to be sent with 0 communication after 7 messages. Id be ok with the lack of comms if he sent it immediately. And maybe Id wait a bit more and be patient if he replied and gave me a good reason...but this shit is un-acceptable, I want to get what I pay for in a reasonable time period!
fair enough, I guess I'm lucky to be UK based where suppliers are a plenty... But still, if only he pulled his finger he'd make a killing on LB. Shame!
idk, 0 communication even if in spanish? 255$ order not worth his time or reply over 6 days?
Meh, sry for the ranting...this stuff gets to me, still lolz
Meh, sry for the ranting...this stuff gets to me, still lolz
Update on Bob (this is the last post in this thread about him). He finally sent me a sensible reply/apology.. Said he messed up with his chores and just couldnt do it all and reply as well. He is new to LB so I will give him that. Maybe I decide to use his shop again in the future...we will see. If I do I will leave a description of my expereince for sure.
cheers bigorre
cheers bigorre
I must say that I received the order this morning and there has been a massive improvement on the stealth. The quality seems to have even improved since last time.
I know I said I'd stick with UK suppliers but having tried Bob's stuff I may bite my words...

Hi lionelhaze I know this topic not recent..but you could try "An American in Paris" dont know how good he is??..but he obviously in Paris..PM him ask him if he ships to where you are!!! or yes as other people have said stick with Hootan..happy days ll
There's an Italian but I'm not sure how good he is...
I ordered from him a month ago, still waiting. I will write a review when (if) I receive the order. I'm giving it another week.
Aw man I hope you get your order or can get a refund! He seemed really promising but not sure!
Hi there
You have also another vendor based in France; no activity during months and I saw a review recently...
I will try hootan like you and fyi TGT succeeded to send to Europe and I wait an order from RB.
All the best

Hey Kokro - RB was my fave seller in the UK, be great to hear if it reaches you ok! Good to know about TGT, cheers :)
And I forgot one I never tried with great reputation; Haschin; from middle east, it takes a while but seems to have high success rate.
Stay safe
Stay safe
Let us know if RB is successful for you mate please, hashishin's stealth is sick,the product is really good quality but may got low THC content for us european stoners,and it may take a while but you have a tracking code to check and rest your mind, for me the flavor is much more important in terms of hash, got some orders from him and it was top, one order was even opened by customs to inspect but nothing was found, luckily. thanks in advance for some feedback of your order from RB.
Now we EU based customers were hit by Brexit I tried hootan, waiting for my 1st order but he was superb in comms, will update once received guys
Same for me; 1st time with him and com was great.
Wait for the parcel now...
By the way, forget the french based one; it doesn’t ship.

By the way, forget the french based one; it doesn’t ship.
Also waiting on a parcel from Hootan, dispatched on the 3rd Jan -think all the post is very very slow at the moment. He seems very reliable so I am not too worried!
I am not worried at all neither, he kindly shared tracking but I do not wish to look except if too long...
We have to be patient
We have to be patient
Not yet :( Hoping it arrives this coming week. Some reviews for Hootan said it took 30 days, so there is hope! Did yours arrive?
Not yet it left last week, I was hoping it could go faster than from UK, but was a bad guess...
Keep you posted when I got it
Stay safe
Keep you posted when I got it
Stay safe
Mine arrived today, 8 days and the quality and smell looks quite good, finger crossed for you lionel, be patient, the stealth is quite good and he even fill in the customs declaration even if it is not needed for my country, good luck out there
Can you benchmark ? i mean are other posts from same origin coming?
He shared tracking ; can you ask him or check by yourself if you can make it in a secure manner?

does anyone know any seller shipping carts to italy, specifically 100% live resin? in uk i often use the great vape company (best LR around here btw), and they said they have been shipping to italy no problem, but would like to hear other opinions hopefully from locals.
grazie!

We have added a list of available bud from EU based sellers: EU to EU - Weed Listing September 23
We will try to publish regularly and keep it up to date.
We will try to publish regularly and keep it up to date.
I can defo recommend Hashishin, his stealth is the best you will see on LB, creative to say the least and the two landrace hashis I have had were as described, lovely smoke - not always your head has to come of your shoulders as someone here was complaining about the strength. Also just ordered with Pistach, I can let you know how that went once I will receive my order. Fyi I'm based in Austria.
I also search for EU based sellers.
Ive got my first order from hootan yesterday. to the south of EU. Can recommend him!
Tried hashishin too and I wouldnt recommend.
Have you found anyone else?

Can I ask what went wrong with Hashishin? I've used him twice and both orders were fine. Just curious really.
Sure. I got 5g of his "premium" leb. When heated it goes to black. High from it was short and had no charachter, almost like cbd. And it tasted like henna, which is used to cut hash. When I compare it to this nice moroccan hash from hootan it is even more obvious that theres nothing premium about it except the high price and good stealth. And when I complained hashishin claimed that I dont know about landrace hash that is low in thc etc etc...which I dont buy for one minute. Cause hash is a concentrated cannabis plant. And it has to have high numbers if its clean and done as it should be. If the numbers are low, then it is made from low grade shake or cut with cutting agents.
Indeed illirum didn't like my "Premium (red) Lebanese" hash and messaged me about it (in a bit of a rude manner, but that's ok - each and their own style). he accused the hash of being adulterated because it doesn't bubble. I merely explained him that Lebanese hash doesn't usually bubble because the way it is produced (mesh/screen size and few other factors). and also that original, true land race hash types produced from older genetics pre breeding for thc era. and therefor some of which are higher and some lower in THC, nevertheless - they are all rich in different cannabinoids and terpenes. I've also explained that the term "premium" for that specific hash listing was due to the quality of production (smell, taste, effect) and not necessarily a high thc content. land race hash types are rich in different cannabinoids and terpinoids and so provide unique effects, sometimes a bit different than thc dominant genetics. I also pointed out to him that the "premium leb" has many positive feedbacks and is liked by myself and other members of the community and therefor I stand behind it purity and quality. illirum didn't like my answers obviously. I did offer to compensate for the fact he didn't enjoy the hash on his next order, but understandably he chose not to order again.
Im not sorry for calling it like it is chief, but I get that you have to reply to my critique. And as Ive already told you, Ive tried many a hash in my 25 years of smoking and travelling. And hash is not done to be less potent than weak cannabis, of that I am sure. Also those good reviews you mention could well be from people who have no experience with hash, so they dont mean much to me as much as the experience Ive actually had with your hash. And of course I didnt want to order again even with compensation, Id probably get another "tasty" but not-potent hash, which is not what my money is for. I want to get fckeng high when I roll my shit up! I test new weed or hash in a way where I roll a joint, low on tobacco, to see how it hits, and roll another after few minutes to see how high it will get me, and if I need a third to get really high I can already tell the potency is not there, never mind what type of high it is. And it wouldnt be my first time to try stuff that looks and tastes and smells cool, but when you light it up it is underwhelming. Im what you call a dr.greenthumb, and you dont have to believe it, but thats why I will come back only for stuff that is premium and clean and I will not be afraid to say when the quality is not there... at least for my ole ass.
And if youre really feeling bad about this you got the adress mate. Send me something I will get high with, like hootan and suissems have managed.. but I already offered you that solution and you naturally declined.
besides, Ive seen few other reviews now on your other stuff, that also claim weak product. not many but they were there.

You are lacking the undersating that hash can be over 30% cannabinoids and not have a load of thc in it. and you are untitled to your own opinion of course. and sure should only spend your money on items you like and enjoy. but actually believing that 36(37 including me) reviewers has no experience or that it's less than yours is just arrogant in my opinion. but as I said before, each and their style. I wish you only good experiences in the future. cheers!
Hey, dont feel so much about it, I see by your dislikes that you have an issue with me, have one yourself lolz.
I certainly wont be saying to anyone that I was pleased with your hash, are you bullying me? Good wishes for the future but a dislike and an arrogant stick... are you being sly and acting all nice? Seems like you are...
cheers mate

You disliked the fact that I dared to say it tasted like henna. And as I said, hot knives method shows how much impurities are in any hash. Pure hash rolls off and wont even stick to a hot knife. But impure sticks much better, the more its impure, the more it sticks. And when you press it, what you are left afterwards are the impurities. Becuase resin evaporates. And all the cannabinoids and whats left of terpenes. A lot of black and charred material is something you want to avoid. Because thats not resin from cannabis plant. And what is hash supposed to be made from? Yep, from resin, the sift or rub, whatever the style of it is.
Be well yourself.
Be well yourself.
bob marley said "only a fool lean upon his own misunderstanding". also, I'm not sure you are familiar with the smell/taste of henna. but like we both said - you are entitled to have your own opinion. and you've stated yours alright. I have nothing to add to this discussion. best of luck
No other choice than scrolling items.
Some used to make synthesis but did not see for a while...

Because he's based in Italy and can ship to Italy. it will bring up all sellers who have listed that they can ship to the EU - I am looking in particular for sellers based IN the EU. Some sellers, like Hootan, have it listed as shipping from the UK but actually ship from Spain. Hence I was asking for any recommendations for sellers who ship from EU as there is no functional search. Hope that makes sense!
Solo le tempistiche della Royal Mail sono molto lunghe ci vogliono quelle due settimane per arrivare però qualità top su quasi tutti i venditori
There are many good vendors out here but the best ones are Nero, SuisseMS, Hootan. Aswell as our shop TheDankofEurope. we ship orders MO-SUN same day tracking included. Europe wide. (GB Italy, Greece, Spain, France...)
suisse ms is the way to go
There is a vendor in Italy on here. Just change the “shipping to”box (above on the item page) to Italy

Nearly your entire life is controlled by the tech oligarchs. Everything we read, watch, buy, and eat is provided by them. And that's for those of us that don't also work for them.
They in turn are bullied by massively armed governments willing to steal or harm anyone that doesn't pay protection money.
We are surrounded by exploiters that also happen to own the network. And our best and brightest built it for them.
I'm really looking forward to ai doing the same thing to them.

Depends how you define freedom.
We are by nature communal and social creatures.
We are constrained by the freedoms of others.
The illusion of hyper individualism and unrestrained libertarianism tells us that we can have unfettered personal freedom, economic freedom, even moral freedom.
But we can't and never could.

Life extension and reversal of the Epigenetic Clock. Good or bad?
Underpopulated in a lot of places, more every year
Life extension and reversal of the Epigenetic Clock. Good or bad?
Hey, I dont know if this has already been covered on here but it's something I find fascinating since I was introduced to Prof. David Sinclair by the Joe Rogan experience (#1234 and #1349 if you're interested)
I have attached an article about a small study that was done in California. The study only had 9 subjects and no control arm so I dont think we can take it TOO seriously. But the results, quite frankly, were astonishing.
I'm not going to try and explain how all of this works as I'm sure I'll butcher it but here's a key paragraph from the article.
'For one year, nine healthy volunteers took a cocktail of three common drugs — growth hormone and two diabetes medications — and on average shed 2.5 years of their biological ages, measured by analysing marks on a person’s genomes. The participants’ immune systems also showed signs of rejuvenation.'
To me that's pretty crazy, right? And from what I understand there are a couple of effective substances/medications available for reversing the epigenetic clock than were not used in this study.
And if you pay attention to Prof. Sinclair he believes that it is well in the realm of possibility that we could live anything up to 80 years longer in the future.
But what happens when we are all living til we are 180 years old? Will we have enough resources? Will the planet be able to cope with the inevitable mass increase in human population if this is the case? I mean, we seem to be struggling a bit globally as we are.
Just thought it was an interesting topic and would love to know your thoughts.
Happy Monday

Thanks just that genetic measurement of age is an eye opener. Seems once you can do this you can measure everything we do against it.
Hey Han, yes indeed it is an eye opener. From what I've read that will be exactly the case. We should be able to mesure how specific habits etc. directly affect the epigenetic (horvath) clock. Exciting times for sure!
Then hookup an AI to make favorable decisions for us, then... It seems all paths lead to the same place :()
Yeah, a dirty dystopia where the "elites" AI our buttholes to oblivion. Im not down with that shit!
Why? shouldn't we all be asking why we want to live longer, rather than going along with that reactionary action from deep in the psyche of 'Yes ofcourse I want to live longer!' and I don't care why I do........
To evolve we pass on our genes and die. An understanding of genetics shows no other purpose for life. Old age, indeed any age beyond reproductive usefulness is a human conceit. The body degrades quickly like a flower wilts but we use our superior intelligence for methods to extend our time. It’s all hubris.
If I could recommend one book everyone should read this year it would be Lifespan.

edibles error tales
not enough and its light beer, too much and it's acid. whats your story biggaz?
I don't think any acid I've ever taken (which is a lot tbh) has made me feel as insane, scared and physically fked up as having eaten too much cannabis! I'll never ever forget the first time I made a mistake with dosage. It was April 2002 (been smoking since 1994!), on a sunday night after having a few beers down my local. Went back to a mates and he'd cooked a whole ounce of hash into brownies, which got gobbled up. by about 8 of us, so yeh, presumably (and this is if it was all equal doses which it prob wasn't!) an 8th each...
Whoops. I stayed at my friends for a couple of hours and everything was fine, started giggling uncontrollably for a bit and then realised it was pretty late so i'd better get a taxi home to my parents house where I was staying as it was easter uni holidays. Taxi ride was fine, bit pissed and stoned, dropped other friends off, still fine. Got home and was really hungry so I made a sandwich and went up to bed. As soon as I took the first bite my mouth went dryer than the sahara and my throat closed up to the point where I had to spit it out cos I was gagging. Nothing made this feeling better, no amount of water or juice or anything. this situation had now made me feel super paranoid, and I started to feel what can only be described as a rocket taking off in my body. All my limbs were buzzing and shaking and twitching, my heart was going faster than I believed it ever had, my head was full of terrible thoughts. Naturally I believed I was having a heart attack. I sat on my parents toilet for about an hour trying to calm down but it was no good. After about 2-hours of this I decided I had to leave the house, maybe I could walk to the 24 hour garage and get something nice to drink. Only instead of going the way that the 24 was, in my madness I'd walked to a Ford dealership garage which obvs was shut and even if it wasn't they wouldn't have been able to sell me liquid! So i realised I'd done this and then freaked out more, which made my throat and mouth dry up to a whole new level of hell wretching and the only thing I could think to do to relieve this was pick leaves off a bush that had rainwater on and suck them. Then I called my then GF (who'd also had some of the brownies) and told her I thought I was dying and that I would be found by the side of the road in the morning and that i loved her! She just mumbled about just going home and I'd be OK but I was convinced by this point I was dying! Managed to get home somehow and just had to ride it out for hours (into the late monday morning!). I didn't eat weed again for years. Was so scary. I almost got to the same level of scariness again a couple of years ago when I misjudged the strength of some already vaped weed in some cookies I made, felt like my personality had split into two people...anyway, wasnt quite as bad as that awful fkin night in 2002!
Whoops. I stayed at my friends for a couple of hours and everything was fine, started giggling uncontrollably for a bit and then realised it was pretty late so i'd better get a taxi home to my parents house where I was staying as it was easter uni holidays.

I had to go home sick from school, we used to tuck into hash and honey sandwiches sometimes at lunchtime, I just laid on the desk in the chemistry lab loosing it 🙃 😅
Not an edible exactly - Bombay International Airport as it was named then, I had a 10 hour wait for my flight to the UK so thought it’d be a good idea to eat the last of my charas that I had bought in town so as not to have to bin it. I started tripping hard after an hour. Sat on the terminal floor with my bag for the next 8 hours glued to the spot too scared to move. Thought I was going blind at one point as the lights in the terminal were so dazzling. Then nearly called out to a soldier walking past with his gun to get me a medic as thought I was gonna collapse. The only thing that brought me round was a few cups of sweet chai from the chai man. Eventually managed to get on the flight home and got hammered on the free booze. Woke up in Heathrow thinking what the fuck was that? Even microdots never had that effect on me. Never eaten it in any form since. Still love me hash tho.
Not so wild but... I was certain edibles didn’t affect me so I decided to make some that would knock a horse over.
It worked, I passed out twice in one night from one 50g goodie.

Well if you soak gummies in alcohol, they absorb the alcohol. So I decided to soak some THC gummies in vodka, they soaked in about a measure.
Man, they went down fast, like jello shots. I was feeling pretty good as I was getting drunk but once the weed kicked in 🤢
It was like alcohol poisoning and a whitey that kept egging each other on. I was smoking joints and drinking beers too, thinking I was pretty invincible.
I tried to hold back the vom but it came out of the sides of my mouth, two jets of hot jelly and bile on the carpet. I had to spend the next few hours hugging the loo, my shirt was drenched with sweat and that was the end of the night for me.
The cold tiles on the bathroom floor were the best thing 😅

my mum left my dad when I was 15 and moved in with her sister and my cousin. The next year I went to stay in school hols. Mum and her sister both worked full time. My cousin, who was a couple of years older than me, was a drummer in a band.
He had access to huge quantities of dope (this was around 1971/72). When he wasn't out at rehearsals me and him would sit around getting stoned.
One day he came back with a large score of squidgy brown hash. He suggested we eat it, something I'd never done before. We made of all things, bread and milk (full fat). Probably didn't know how to cook anything else!
We chowed down with the hash and then.....nothing happened. For a long time. I was disappointed until my mum and aunt got home from work when of course it hit. It hit BIG time. There followed one of those terrible situations where you are baked out of your gourd but the people you're interacting with can't know that. So you're spaced out while putting on a performance of what you think is "normal" behaviour. If my mum twigged she never said, but she must have thought I was acting well weird!
Was my worst experience until the time my dad came home early and I was tripping on acid. Jeez, one of the things I like about this site is the way it makes me remember stuff like that.

Totally get what you mean about "putting on a performance"
Trick is to act high all the time so when you actually are it wont be noticable 😂

Last year i had to go to Mexico with work and I decided to drop a couple of MJs shatter gummies. Unfortunately I dropped two x 50mg rather than the 25grams before I got on the plane. Had just got seated in economy when I started coming up fast and hard and then realised something was wrong. Luckily I managed to talk to one of the stewedess and paid for an upgrade to business before I turned into a jibbering wreck. I spent the whole flight under a blanket and 900 quid out of pocket for the upgrade. Never again edibles on a plane
Made some brownies last year that were pretty loaded shall we say. Anyway later that night I woke up thirsty so went to the kitchen for a drink. I spotted the brownies on the side and preceeded to tuck into em as if they were normal ones, demolished 3 of em and went back to bed. Few hours later I woke up to what I can say was the worst panic attack feeling ever!!!! Heart racing, sweating, short of breath. Kept telling myself to go back to sleep but everything went Batshit when I closed my eyes. Wont make that mistake ever again 🤯🤯🤯
When I was young my mates would come over to my house and hang out in mine and my brother's bedroom for evening bonging sessions. We would always have some music on the stereo, usually Pink Floyd, but this one night while stoned there was a knock on the door which made us a bit paranoid as we weren't expecting anyone. So we ignored it. Next thing a voice came through on the stereo speakers saying the lights are on but nobody's answering the door. When we heard this we all went into panic mode thinking it was a police raid and their radio commnuication had come through the stereo speakers somehow. The lad who's hash it was swallowed what was left of it, about an eighth, and flushed the mull down the toilet. He was proper green and puking up afterwards, lying on the bathroom floor not being able to move, but the funny thing was it wasn't the police but a taxi driver that had come to the wrong house 😆
Got one about me mammy. She doesn't drink. She doesn't smoke. She doesn't do drugs of any sort. Most mind altering thing you'll find wee Lizzy partaking in is a cup of tannins (that'll be a brew if you didn't know, I'm sure you did though). Her partner is quite the opposite. In particular Tam loves a good smoke.
One year for a holiday they decided to go to Amsterdam. Tam ordered a brownie. Tam then proceeded to go to the toilet, neglecting to inform Lizzy (who I must say is partial to a sweetie or two now and again) that this was no ordinary unassuming brownie. Tam presently returned from the toilet to a plate of crumbs. I exist now in equal parts. One part is so utterly grateful that I didn't see or hear (or smell, yes, you read that right) the ensuing chaos. The other part will regret forever that I didn't. From all I've heard from them both it was a night to remember (though my poor mother wishes she didn't). Personally I don't eat sister green, I'm too much of a shite bag to even try it. I'll stick with my vape, I've seen the devil enough times to last several lifetimes as it is 😜

Edibles should be predictable and correctly dosed, then you know what your getting yourself in for!
We all love edibles, and even better love feeding them to our mates.
The best bet... Just start small and build from there.
Factor in how much food you have in your stomach and its easy to dose well and consistently.

I’ve once got carried away and made some cupcakes with a quarter of hash in each.
The first hour was fun, then I was begging for it to stop.
Tripped my balls off convinced I was going to die like you said. It was stronger than any psychedelic I’d taken but I think it was the anxiety about dying or having a heart attack that ramped it up!
The worst bit was my old housemate came home and helped himself to one without realising it was loaded!
I could hear him shuffling around in his room groaning so I knocked on the door and he just about managed to mumble you’re a c-word through the door! 🤣 He was frazzled!

Crikey after nailing a quarter back in the day…..I got knocked on my backside by 0.5g-1g tops last night?!
I’ve had a cold and not been able to smoke all week and though I would eat a bit to knock me out for a good nights sleep!
I crumbled up say 3 or so joints of leb hash melted it in butter on a spoon and stirred it into a yoghurt.
Felt super chilled after an hour.
Did another chunk of Pakistani hash melted in the same manner.
Felt pretty high, but mellow.
Crawled to bed and then kind of woke up at 2am and realised I was tripping out of my tiny mind.
Still frazzled at 8am. Kind of mellowed by lunch time. Still feeling pretty chilled now!
I’m not sure why it was quite so hard hitting? Don’t quite understand but it was pretty intense and long lasting!
Had loads to do this morning and had proper red eye. Shades on all day. 🤣

Admittedly not the most exciting but I’d shared something about eating so much a few days ago and I was amazed how messed up I got from having so little.

Decided to try AVB to start the day on a very rare weekend without my wife and little boy. Best laid plans of a nice stone and then top up with some vapes along the way…..
Proceed to about an hour later and my world is imploding. Can of coke to try and level out leading to spewing all over a brand new white rug in the lounge and me just staring paralysed by what to do next. Trying to clean the rug in that state felt like I was attempting to build the mars rover with a few bits of LEGO and some string.I then fought the high for about 6 hours constantly vowing to not even eat it again.
Panic cleaning a rug, wasting a potentially perfect zen day and so much self pity. 0/10 would not recommend.

A friends mum wanted to try an edible as she doesn’t smoke so she tried a corner of some cookies I made and was off her rocker for 4+ hours saying the room was spinning and uncontrollable laughter, which I found quite amusing.
I could eat many and not get close to that state you forget not everybody has a high tolerance🤣
She has never tried edibles since and I feel partially to blame that she had a ‘negative’ experience but she couldn’t of eaten more than 10mg at most so I’m not sure if they are for her anyway😅

Too much edibles and it feels like I’m straight up dying, have stayed away for a while lol 😂
1. Purple sunrise trip = bed fucking ate me
2. Hawaiian baby wood rose seeds or something like that = tripped so hard thought I was trapped in a coma from when I was in hospital living a vision. Went downstairs naked, blew nose on mums dress went back upstairs and played Xbox, I was 18 🫣
3. Canna butter cookies - put at least 2oz of my home grown chronic.baked into 6 cookies ate the lot in an hour.
Was zombie for 3 days straight and didn’t speak to missus as I was drooling in the corner only moving to get more snacks

2002. Grated a q of not great hash. Melted in butter for a bit and mixed in with yogurt. Split with my housemate. Disgusting.
Housemate went to bed. Got so mashed that I couldn't get up to change the DVD or music. Just sitting there for hours, bored out of my mind. I don't think I soiled myself thankfully.
Was stoned in a similar way for about 3 days.

best family game for xbox?
anything by mario
Plantz vs zombies is pretty cool shooting but funny guns no blood or stuff but still plants killing zombies so violence 😆Or voodoo vince not sure still available 🤔
Unravel and Unravel 2 are really good puzzle platformers and the second you can play two player on one console. Ori games as well. All on gamepass if you have it
I LOVED viva pinata!! It was on 360 but think it’s backward compatible for current generation.
I'm not to sure if it's still in the store or how old the people are whose going to play but I used to love to play Doritos Crash Course with the fam. It's basic but we had fun!
Rocket league it's free. Online. make a family team and go beat some kids at car soccer.
Also tetris connected maybe . both have lil violence.
Also tetris connected maybe . both have lil violence.
got a bit of toon violence and guns but Sea of thieves is a good one to play with family 🤜
I have been getting it for £1 a month for about a year. I was going to suggest some PC titles. Real gaming machines... You know?

has anyone done a comparison of lb sellers gear in a vid, i would love to see that
challenges would be a great thing around here. i saw someone once ordered from every seller at the same time and ranked the delivery speed.
Someone did it a few years ago, I don’t think they’re active anymore but they would post a drop box link and it would be a video of them showing off the bud and talking about it, they’d even get the magnifying glass out.
It's a great idea. Basically get paid in smoke to show off the best of what LB has to offer.
I think a tip jar of some kind would be in order too.

Created a second account to do reviews and shit on, used to do a lot of reviews on darkweb and legit stuff for music and video games.
Done a review or two on my own account RedeyeJedi25 but will keep them here for now.
Open to any ideas, feedback, tell me Im just a cheeky bastard trying my luck on samples 😂
Fuck description of what I want to do on my page 😊

I'm up for doing this once Im back off holiday but I feel like it should be a private video as mentioning LB on a public platform is probably not the wisest idea unless we want brigading
Im trying to create this as a review account if I can, hopefully people have seen my personal account commenting enough, and with 15 ish buys they know I'm not trying to tske the piss 😂
It was very popular, lots of votes and comments etc. There’s definitely ‘a gap in the market’ for a video reviewer.
I’ve always fancied putting a podcast out talking to buyers and vendors but it just doesn’t seem feasible…

Ronald Reagan's Prophecy
Yeah fucker charged me for NDD and I waited for over a week!
Ronald Reagan's Prophecy
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."
And now a new generation is fighting for freedom from a militarized police force that Reagan enabled.
Absolutely true, the vast majority of people spend their entire lives arguing, debating and fighting over bullshit like "left vs right" and they are so caught up in it that they can't see that they aren't fighting any real issues whatsoever, just distracting themselves from the actual underlying problems!
we as a species have no enemies, the government and media are creating problems for people to divide over, because with this constant divide we will never be united enough to bring on a revolution.

Amazon Customers form Collective Gestapo
"Ring" enlists customers to use their door cams for surveillance. The Grand Jury is the comments section.
Yeah and they are hoaring it to the cops in (you guessed it) Florida. It's nothing strange for Amazon though, their lust for power has never had any ethical boundaries.
This is accelerating fast, now each user is an informant directly to the police.
It's blowing up even as crime is falling.
it is basically how the world worked before cops though the scale and anonymity lets freaks takeover the mic

I don't understand how geneva does well year after year, it's boring expensive and the food is relatively meh.
The liveability index is based on several weighted factors: political stability, healthcare provision, education quality, etc. Geneva has a high cost of living so a rich population and so does well in these categories. Which is why this index is flawed, like you say: it doesn’t take culture into account very well (this is an aspect but it’s difficult to quantify and subjective) and only accounts for how current residents find it, i.e. those who can afford to live there (or those who are unable to leave on the flip side).
morons, they actually ranked calgary as the best place to live in north america

Nuclear Weapons
Yes its been a blessing but does it scale as the tech spreads to those with less to lose?
Nuclear Weapons
How do we go about ridding the world of this threat to peace and weed?
Not saying I agree with it, but there's an argument to say that Mutually Assured Destruction saves lives. I wouldn't want to go back to the times of the trenches and millions of young men dying for no reason other than a bit of dirt in the south of France.
If nuclear weapons allow the big boys to wave their fists at eachother, realise the whole thing is probably a bad idea then find something else to do I'm all for it.
Unfortunately we don't live in utopia,so deterrents are neccesary, for right or wrong it's just the way it is. I'd rather have the nukes than not have them put it that way.
Just my 2p.
Cheers BB

Imagine a room awash in gasoline and there are 2 implacable enemies in that room, one of them has 9000 matches, the other has 7000 matches, each of them is concerned about who is ahead, who is stronger
well that's the kind of situation we are actually in, the amount of weapons that are available are so bloated, so grossly in excess of what's needed to disuade the other that if it weren't so tragic it would be laughable
what is necessary is to reduce the matches and to clean up the gasoline.

this is a good analogy and it points to the hopelessness of the situation. matches are only getting cheaper.

To address threats to global peace, it's crucial to adopt a multifaceted approach that considers the underlying causes and implements strategies to promote harmony. Here are some general steps that can contribute to a more peaceful world:
Education and Empathy: Promote education that fosters understanding, tolerance, and empathy. Encourage schools and communities to teach conflict resolution, emotional intelligence, and respect for diversity. By nurturing empathy and understanding, we can reduce prejudice and promote peaceful coexistence.
Diplomacy and Dialogue: Encourage open and constructive dialogue between nations, communities, and individuals. Diplomatic efforts, negotiations, and mediation can help resolve conflicts peacefully, prevent violence, and build bridges of understanding.
Human Rights and Social Justice: Uphold and advocate for human rights at all levels. Address social injustices, inequality, and discrimination, which can be sources of conflict. Promote equitable access to resources, opportunities, and social services to create a more just and peaceful society.
Sustainable Development: Address environmental degradation, resource scarcity, and climate change. Promote sustainable practices, responsible consumption, and environmental stewardship. These efforts contribute to stability, reduce conflicts over resources, and protect the planet for future generations.
Cooperation and Collaboration: Foster international cooperation and collaboration among nations, organizations, and individuals. Encourage partnerships in areas such as trade, healthcare, technology, and culture. By working together, we can address global challenges and promote shared prosperity.
Disarmament and Conflict Resolution: Advocate for arms control, disarmament, and nonviolent conflict resolution. Invest in peaceful alternatives, such as negotiation, mediation, and reconciliation. Encourage dialogue and reconciliation processes to heal past wounds and prevent future conflicts.
Media and Information: Promote responsible and unbiased reporting, media literacy, and critical thinking skills. Combat misinformation, propaganda, and hate speech that can fuel tensions and conflicts. Responsible media plays a crucial role in fostering understanding and peace.
Remember, achieving global peace is a complex and ongoing process. It requires collective efforts, commitment, and engagement from individuals, communities, organizations, and governments worldwide.
Education and Empathy: Promote education that fosters understanding, tolerance, and empathy. Encourage schools and communities to teach conflict resolution, emotional intelligence, and respect for diversity.

Remember, achieving global peace is a complex and ongoing process. It requires collective efforts, commitment, and engagement from individuals, communities, organizations, and governments worldwide.
That will never happen friend. Countries, nations need that deterrent to get away with the shit they do. I was a teen during the green ham common camps. I don’t really think their is much chance of these weapons actually being used. That is not the purpose of a nuclear deterrent. For the record I would rather they didn’t exist. Oppenheimer knew what he unleashed on the world in later life I seem to remember reading.
"Now I am death,the destroyer of worlds" hindu scripture with which Oppenheimer opened his senate testimony
Fun fact, he butchered the translation from the bhagavad gita. Krishna says he is 'time', not 'death' that is the destroyer of worlds. Which frankly makes more sense haha.

Murder Mountain - Netflix
Easily the best documentary mini series I've seen in years. And I watch a lot of them. Fascinating if you're interested in the cannabis business, and murder....and weird isolated communities, and loads more.
Just incredible. Seen it 3 times and might watch it again.
Tiger King on Netflix is also pretty good although didn't need to be as long as it was. Seemed to be dragged out over too many episodes.
Cheers BB

Yes, (Murder Mountain) I need to watch that again. Started casually watching that and then couldn't believe what I was watching. Tiger King is fun to watch, but Murder Mountain should just as much credit or hype.

If you are at all interested in hip hop, check out the BBC Four series "Hip Hop - The Songs That Shook America". I only saw one episode so far, but there are some amazing interviews, old footage and stories.
didn't rate it tbh, didn't think it did the best job of telling his story and jumped around too much. Found it tedious to watch at times imo. I'm a big biggie fan so had high hopes
These new BBC nature docs are great if you have a 4K tv ;) I just got one. The last tv I bought was a cube, so it’s amazing picture ;)
Yeah Icarus is amazing. I am not sure if a saw The Octopus Teacher, I saw a couple about Octupus and they are amazing creatures. Thanks I will check it
Hands On a Hardbody: Amazing documentary about a competition to win a car. 24 people compete by keeping their hand on the car and being the last one standing. Sleep deprivation, insanity, giggles and heartbreak ensue.
The Decline Of Western Civilization: There's 3 of these. The second one is the funniest. In parts it's like a real-life Spinal Tap.
Heavy Metal Parking Lot: This is on Youtube and is only like 10 minutes long. But it's about the carpark scene at a Judas Priest concert. Mullets and questionable characters abound.
Project Grizzly: Mad man tries to invent a suit that will allow him to survive a grizzly bear attack. He ends up looking like Robocop. One of the funniest documentaries ever made.
American Movie: Amateur filmmaker is trying to get his horror movie made over multiple years. Follows him and his cast (locals/family) and the terrible movie they make.

If you haven't seen One Day in September, check it out. It's about the hostage situation at the Munich Olympics. A story of misplaced political activism/terrorism and the mind-blowing incompetence by the authorities who were tasked with handling it. Or, The Fog of War, in which Robert McNamara - late US Secretary of Defence - talks candidly about America's devious role in many 20th Century events.
Yeah good one. The Fog of War: need to check that one out.
And "mind-blowing incompetence by the authorities"? Just turn on the news 0_o

I must admit, I am a die hard carnivore. But that doc did make me think about eating less meat too. Check Joe Rogan podcast too with the doc maker. Very interesting.
The same here- ended up eating less meat just because I started eating more veg :) Not a black/white path though as there are A LOT of poor quality "vegan"-labelled products with tonnes of salt and things that are much worse than meat.
Was just about to say, totally agree - Vegan doesnt mean healthy. We got wrapped up in Beyond meat etc etc but you check the ingredients and most contain methylcellulose and other synthetic products that we are not totally clear on how they effect your body - stick to vegetables, fruits and if anything you buy has less that 5 ingredients in it, you are on to a winner 🙏🏽
'Fourteen Days In May' on BBC iPlayer.
Its from the 80s and followins a death row inmates final 2 weeks leading up to his execution date. Very powerful documentary, will stay with you gor a while after watching.

I read a suggestion that the popularity of BBC nature documentaries (particularly Attenbrough) in the USA has great correlation with legalised weed.

Good food and good gear go hand in hand. Watching these mostly old timers make simple things so well, some of them finally got Michelin stars for it. Great cinematography and storytelling.

Love this guy already, but this is an insight into the real highs and lows of the working life of a comedian as he does Edinburgh Festival for the first time.

What happened to Old-school Vendors
I remember my 1st order from a yoda character and it was hilarious.
Are You a seller?
What happened to Old-school Vendors
There used to be a quite a few top-sellers here, the likes of Captain Crunch, Maddame Deal, NextDayWeedUK to name a few....now all gone. Wondering what happened, why did they leave LB?
Risk - reward
Going the post office none stop is risky if you're posting bud, not so bad for me as I only sell oil, butter and decarb on here as none of them smell too strong, and once vac packed, they could be anything.
Posting directly into the post box is also a hassle because there are often people who will claim their item never arrived ( hence 1st class signed only for my products)
Then theres the price - I can sell my top end flower for £180 an ounce all day which is $245, but I'd also need to make an extra 12% -14% on top of that on here due to LB sales fees, bitcoin fees, fiat exchange rate fees, packaging.
All that is to just hit the figures you can sell locally for.
So I'd need to be selling ounces for $350 to make all the extra hassle worth it, and then you end up with a load of comments saying your too expensive, taking the piss etc.
Never say never, but for now, that's my reasons for not selling flower on here and I'd imagine that's the conclusion some of the other sellers have come to over time.
Cheers

Vendors come and go. Some can still be found on other market places. I saw Hogwarts pop up the other day. Not seen them in over a year. Life sometimes changes priorities.
Many avenues to acquire the good erb online my friend. LB is a gem, though. I'm sure they are fine. There is only so long most people can be back and for the post office every day.
The smart vendors reach a threshold where referral income eclipses the selling business.
Believe it, with a shutterbuggin talent like your own you could be singing the same tune.
Think about it kid, the referrals are pure profit and they last for years, no matter who is selling to your peeps. Selling is tough especially from the logisitcs and personnel side let alone sourcing and security. Add the rise of bitcoin and Bob's your Uncle only not your rich one anymore, cause that be you.

I’ve often pondered your angle on here Todd and it’s really interesting,but then apart from back onto here, where would one post referral links for a site selling such frowned upon goods? lol Wouldn’t suit my vocation or the mother inlaw’s (Facebook) opinion of me lol
Delighted you asked my bigga, you are in great shape with reddit and a host of smaller sites you can find with a search of cannabis communities.
Your pics are pro skills that means you can post them as content itself and link back for more pics. No open promotion is needed.
Facebook has supportive groups (think I even saw your mother in law in one) for cannabis but remember *any* content here can be linked to. It can be a meme, a joke or even a news opinion post. It doesn't have to be your own post as long as it has your link the registered bigga is your little earner for life.

What is the best DIY bong?
People we need to turn our bottles into bongs!
I bought a device on eBay that screws onto almost any bottle, turning it into a bong. When the bong water gets nasty just throw the bottle away and attach it to a new bottle. It's not completely DIY but it still has some merit nonetheless. Besides, nobody likes dealing with bong water and it's easier to hide when compared to a regular bong.
Holy shit! Did that in school 15+ years ago. Do kids even have pens at school anymore!?!?!
where were you . Back in the day I remember so many times we could have used this. why didnt we ever think of this. lol.. love it. thankyou
When we were little the wikihow salesman used to come door to door with books like this
That they would sell newer versions of there Bong every few months. That cost more then the last one and has miner improvements. Auto makers found it didn't work for them but it has worked for Apple
If you mean best and don't mind finding some tubing and drilling you will have something that beats most expensive bongs
Cut the bottom off a 2 litre bottle of pop, stick it in a bucket of water, use a milk bottle foil cap to to make a cap and fill with weed. Light it and pull up. Make sure you press down as you inhale.
Ahhh the old bucket method. Takes me back to the 90s that one!
We used to do these with a cheap bottle of pop from Kwik Save, a foil KitKat wrapper, and then go to the local park and subtlely make use of the penny wish fountain!
The good old days! 😂😂
Cheers BB 😊👍

we once used a drinking fountin bottle, a speaker grill (for gauze) and pulled it in a m8's bath ...lmao
Haha awesome
Try, a 500 ML soda bottle + a few inches of garden hose + cake icing socket... voila !! Homemade shotgun bong

The bottle and small pipe combo is the most quality and convenience I have ever had the high honor to imbibe.
You take a real simple weed pipe, metal or glass, and stick it in the mouth of the bottle.
If the bottle is plastic use any sharp object to stick a hole at the base.
Hold the bottle horizontally, put a straw in that hole and prepare for a monstrosity of a hit.
If it's a glass bottle you need something super sharp for the hole at the bottom, the tip of a strong knife or an ice pick does the job easily.
Water is optional, you don't need and its hard to balance. The best part of this is no cleanup, chuck the bottle when you are done, imagine a bong with a disposable chamber, that's what you got now bro.

I think what you have there is a DIY steam roller, I had one of these and loved it, yes water is totally optional its the expansion that does the magic and water is almost guaranteed to make a mess.

can make joint or burning Bong, put ice cube in base of it..
Delish and mouth piece is big and makes air tight seal on my fat cheeks 👌

Another pro cannabis point proven from this topic alone:
You give smokers a bunch of weed and nothing to smoke it with and suddenly they become engineers! Brilliant. : D

My special skill is that I can McGyver a bong out of almost anything.
Basically, as long as you have tin foil you can do anything. Make pipes: a few wraps, tight around a pencil, seal with scotchtape lengthways. Fan out the end before doing so. Tear a circle of tinfoil, and a pin ("anyone wearing a badge?"), open the back page of an unloved book, place the foil on the paper, and tap the pin up and down repeatedly and you have a perfectly serviceable gauze that you can poke in the end of your fanned pipe.
I prefer not to smoke out of anything plastic. Just seems like we know not to burn plastic in the outdoors, so keep that shit away from your lungs, right?
Fruit has always been a friend for the thrown together party bong. Watermelon is obviously beautifully carvable. Always thought a papaya, with its natural internal chamber and a couple of pipes would probably be viable. Poke holes into the fruit with a screwdriver or, if you don't have one, a pencil or pen.
Finally, you can make an incredible ice bong, but it's a faff. Get two barbeque skewers. Place them in a pint glass, of water with the ends 10cm from the bottom of the glass. I made an inverted kind of A frame with some tinfoil to hold them. If you do the same, keep the crossbar out of the water. Freeze the glass.
Boil the kettle. Use a combination of twisting and pulling to extract the metal skewers. Then, tilt so that one side is facing down over a sink and slowly pour boiling water into the holes. Eventually, you'll have a bong. Make a tin foil gauze. Smoke like a muthafking champion.

Bag bong-get a 2 litre pop bottle cut bottom of,then attach a pedal bin bag to the bottom where its cut of with tape,then attach a length of string to the bottom of the bag so you can pull it to draw the smoke in,then cut a hole in the cap and make a bowl with some foil,put holes in with a pin-done.
Put your choice of cannabis in the bowl when lighting it have your foot on the string and pull up,the smoke will enter the bottle as the bag is drawn out.
Unscrew the lid and inhale ALL the smoke,hold,then blow it back in and pull on the string again so it fills up again,repeat until all the smoke is gone.
You will be high as fuck.
Some call these a lung.

We made a coconut one once, didn't last long.
My goto was
Plastic Plumbing down pipe
Aerosol can lid that fitted snugly.
Bluetack or silicone around the base to help keep it airtight
Electrical tape on the outside at the top of the can lid, again to keep airtight
Copper plumbing pipe, with a connector on the end for the bowl.
Made a hole in the plumbing tube, heated up with a lighter, you can push the copper tube through.
More bluetack/ tape or silicone around that area so it was airtight.
Rush hole about an inch above and to the side.
Finally name it, we always called them Billy.

Someone should get on to Carlsberg. Currently, Carlsberg don't make bongs but if they did, they'd probably be the best bongs in the world
Small Fanta bottle, they're already the right shape. Lighter to make holes on front and back in the right places for a rush/carb and a downpipe. Then use a bit of garden hose for downpipe with a bit off a socket set in the end to use as a cylinder cone. Then either a circle cutting from the metal gauze in a coffee percolator as a screen, or a piece of foil with some pin holes in, or just a small ball of foil. Schmoke it up in style, all for the price of a small bottle of Fanta. 💚💦
The simplest bong/pipe I made was a used can of coke.Dent the can enough to rest weed on and put pinholes in it, simples!
Some of my favourite emergency methods...and I consider myself a bit of an expert...
Pop a L shape hole through an apple, carrott or similar using a kebab stick, scoop out a cone with your fingernail. Chuff away.
"Pin ups" Flip a badge on it's back stick a lump of hash on it, ignite and stick any glass over the top. Slide the glass to the edge of a table and suck the cooled contents out of the gap.
Bamboo Bong - Made by Thai locals in seconds with a couple of swipes of a machete. Scoop some water from a stream and your off.
Papaya stem (hollow with a coney end) straight into a cola bottle seal the neck with your lips and finger. Hey presto. Indonesian bong.

It's happened...
3.5 years after being on this brilliant site and after 15 successful orders my latest order has disappeared without trace..
Ordered, paid for and marked as sent on the 30th September but still no sign of delivery 12 days later.
The vendor has been great, saying leave a while and will sort out a reship, I've ordered from them before without any issue so have no worries about stealth or honesty from them BUT...
...My paranoia is going through the roof! Has it been intercepted and now I'm about to get a visit from the boys in blue? Every day of non delivery the fear and loathing builds..
Has anyone experienced this? Any wise words to set my mind at ease?

Unless you placed a BIG order nobody’s coming…it will probably arrive or Postman Pat is getting baked at your expense…it’s shit but like you say it’s a very rare occurrence….
If i get a knock at the door my plan is to get on my knees and offer myself to whoever wants a piece!
Chill my friend. Very, very worst case scenario and you got a knock at the door (and I can't stress enough how unlikely this is to happen!) Just tell them you know absolutely nothing about it.
It could be anybody who knows you and your address to be fair.
Keep the faith it may still turn up

I sent out two packages to the same address about 6 months ago when RM was even more on it's arse than it is now. The first package arrived, the second didn't so after a week or so i sent out a 'third' reship which arrived in under 2 days.
4 weeks later the second package turned up! The buyer was decent enough to let me know.
It's a right shit show at RM at the moment so i wouldn't be surprised if it does turn up one day and even if it doesn't, you've got nothing to worry about.
"I didn't order that....no idea what it is..."
Cheers. BB

Royal Mail 'lose' 14 million parcels a year.
I've had three orders from different vendors vanish since May 2020 when I joined. This is from over 100 orders made in this time. One of them was tracked and I had the code.
In none of these cases did the popo show up, or anything come of it other than me not having the weed.
So, all is well dude.

about the same for me bud well over 100 orders and i had 2 or 3 that went missing and that was ages ago not recently
i do always try to do tracked or at least 1st class signed for as they never seam to go missing
Hey, not sure if this helps but.....
So I have had the same issue, on Friday apparently RM are alerting the police were packaging is suspicious. The police obviously turned up and my package was collected by them (attached their signature)......
As I have a family member who works there I know what the can and cannot do....
They won't just turn up to your house (Not sure if ordered a massive amount (Bar)) Even then, its rare they just don't have the time money or focus to look at this.
Also you cannot be charged with anything......attempting to order weed?....I suppose if they want to be clever then they should have let it get delivered...
Don't worry.......it will all be good! The Police are actually ok (in my experience!)

Excellent points from the Otter!
With post the vendor takes all the risk as there are clearly offences of using RM to send controlled items (& supply!). But it’s gets very vague at your end. If it’s a BIG quantity then they could fish around for aiding & abetting or even conspiracy to supply but at the personal use level it’s a non starter.
RM charter means they have to go through the motions if some jobsworth picks up a stinky bag…it’s why stealth is such a priority! 👍
With post the vendor takes all the risk as there are clearly offences of using RM to send controlled items (& supply!). But it’s gets very vague at your end.

Exactly, completely agree.
The issue with mine was down to stealth and an element of being unlucky. The RM cannot check everything, mind you advice I did get was not to use Special Delivery in the UK.....
Perspective is needed and this is really rare....e.g 90 orders 1 loss......not bad really....
The seller btw, has been good so far, will keep you all updated.

I’m avoiding Special Delivery after my issue with getting nabbed at the sorting office. Sticking with stealthy 1st class. Travels in bigger bags and less likely to be seen by anyone other than your posty.
Thanks for the messages all.. much appreciated! The mind can do to very strange places if not punctuated by someone else's perspective...
My last order took less than 24 hours to arrive so this was not expected.. but the more I used LB the more I knew that something like this would happen eventually...
Your comments have lightened my mood although I still can't quite shake the feeling that there is a packet of cannabis edibles floating around somewhere out there with my name and address on!!
Will post back here if they ever turn up

As others have said, don't lose any sleep over it. Even in the incredibly unlikely event that anyone comes to see you, as long as you deny all knowledge they have nothing.
The odds it's been seized vs simply getting lost, or at worst pilfered by a postie are tiny. I've had one go missing a few weeks ago, still never shown up. Contact the vendor & resolve it with them a good one will always work with you.
Most of all don't worry mate. It's seriously not a problem at all, aside from being down some weed at worst.

I wouldn’t worry about it to much buddy don’t think the police are that bothered about weed anymore finally realised they’ve got better things to do 🙂
im in the same boat. shipped on 27th and no news. i think it has more to do with a backlog in shipping throughout world. could take up to 21days. i agree with others on here that cops have better things to do, so i wouldn't panic. keep the faith, brother
You will be ok my friend. My second ran over the order time and came over 3 weeks later. Hopefully it arrives 😎
If you have used the vendor previously and you're confident in the stealth that was used, i personally think it's more likely that a vendor made a mistake and the parcel wasn't posted to begin with, rather than it being siezed.
Hope you get it sorted, don't let your time run out to raise a dispute 👍

just have to shout out for this one, its got me through lockdown. along with you biggaz :)
Another great vr fighting game worth a look is gorn. Similar in many ways but a more animated wacky gladiator style with incredible physics. The weapons really feel accurate to the movement. Its only a cheap game, but after a few days does get a little repetitive, but great for 15 quid.
this game killed one of my quest controllers :( it was fun while it lasted tho :) hell of a workout!

work weed?
sativa am + indica pm all week and drinking on the weekends :)
work weed?
Couldn't imagine work without it. Of course I can't imagine anything without it. It's been too long.
But what about you biggaz? What kind of work works a bit stoned?
But what about you biggaz? What kind of work works a bit stoned?
Correct. I use CBD in the evenings and they have the same terpene profiles as regular THC weed. In the day I use CBDv and CBG.
Exactly this - a good solid sativa while working/needing to be out and about then once thats all over it's either hybrid (if afternoon) or straight to Indica if it's evening for a tranquil end
I'm an airline pilot and I couldn't ferry hundreds of people between continents unless I am so baked I'm having a whitey in the cockpit
😂 I just cannot work baked due to the massive responsibilities
It’s totally incompatible. Leisure time though is another story although I’m pretty strict self discipline wise
I take a few months break every once In a while to flush out my system and maintain mental health etc
Not everyone is gonna be the same
Works for me anyhoo…

All ropy lines of employment in recent years and I think cannabis use is the least of our worries well apart from dentist unless it’s Glennon Edward Engleman
There's no way in hell I could get baked at work, especially off my own crop. There'd be no way of hiding my red eyes, low levels of activity and insatiable appetite. On second thoughts, I think I've just myself every day.
I could do/have done my job stoned but I don’t see any point as I can’t really enjoy it when I’m working. I also don’t get people who you can smell have just smoked a fatty before getting on the bus at 7 in the morning. Don’t they ever actually wake up for the day?? I couldn’t do that lol.
I smoke at work to make it go faster, only reason and it works more social and can function if I don’t go crazy on a pen.m
Cliche, I know. But sativa day, Indi/hybrid night.
If only they knew it could be used as a catalyst for efficiency and productivity.

I have hardly ever smoked at work, probably 3 or 4 times in 23 years,I guess it depends on what type of person and job you do,I do bricklaying /groundworks/general building,what do others do?
If I'm honest with you I'd prefer not to say. I used to be very cavalier on lb but having seen the digital platforms change so rapidly over the last few years, I value my privacy and anonymity.
What I will say is that I'm self employed. Work 10-12+ days, 7 days, I have a family and my work is a mixture of non manual, hard manual and a lot of administrative tasking.
So, weed helps, a lot. I'm also married with children. We can do a lot in a day, on or off weed.
Guess as you said, depends on the the person and the job they do.
Peace be with you.

If you’re just buying weed it’s neither here nor there. You’ll need to give whoever you go with some photo id and you have to buy some somehow*. Nobody cares.
If you’re selling, or for some other reason need to remain disconnected it’s a bigger conundrum.
Protonmail will give you email ring fencing, but if you’re buying henrys on your mobile it’s pointless.

Item Rankings?
i dont think they are rankings
It’s an enduring mystery. Most of what we see on here is algorithm driven and apparently the Wall is sequenced based on a number of factors including overall activity: click rate, topics, votes, reviews, sales etc.
Whilst that makes some sense, it doesn’t explain why sometimes a high risk new vendor with a couple of dodgy looking listings sometimes gets propelled to the top and the hard working honest much loved vendor struggles to make an appearance.
I can think of a few vendors who thoroughly deserve to be up there but despite their best efforts never seem to get there.
Weird…😵💫

Yup ... agree 100%, the strangest things appear at the top and seem to stick. Not necessarily bad products but a bit niche somehow- Dagga Pucks, great love it, landrace, history, but always in my top 10? Can't be sales then surely, maybe the invisible algorithms like images that aren't the norm, ie machine trimmed, pgr bloated "Cali" golf ball factory rejects? ;)
think like an algo, the wall is very likely using us to provide scrutiny, not just rewarding the subject of our attention.
I have been educating myself shall we say by spending too much time the day on the topic's wall
But cheers man hope your good ?
But cheers man hope your good ?
Seems like certain vendors seem to dominate disproportionately. Maybe it’s done on most sales?
Scrolling down all the time can be a real pain when all the best vendors are further down. There's no logic to it
Agreed. Laziness of this site is ridiculous. I used to have a Toking record bag in the mid 90’s 😄

simply amazed a site doing what it does on the clearnet does not accept Monero! My predecssor said it was an issue all the years back so don't think it will be solved which is a shame :(
Does anyone on this site offer payment in XMR? So many nice items but i don't want to pay in BtC
Unfortunately not. Last year there was a rumor that Litecoin would be accepted, but that never happened.

Partially Paid order
Guys, this topic has been surfacing here and there a couple of times but I have never seen it discussed clearly. Hope someone would be able to explain...I have made an order, I have paid the exact amount PLUS fees, everything is clearly confirmed in my record of this transaction, and yet the vendor is now asking for extra 0.003 BT. How is this possible?, the price is in BTs, I have paid exactly what I was asked, how is it possible that the vendors has not received it all?... i am not happy to pay the extra (and of course another fee for this extra transaction!), but vendor is obviously holding the sword by the handle now... suggestions?
Hi, your order confirmation page will show what the vendor asked and what you have paid, have you checked this? If they both match you can point this out to the vendor.
maybe you didnt have enough in your wallet to pay the vendor and the network fee? just message and ask seller to deduct what he feels is neccessary from your purchase
I normally transfer a little extra when making order just to avoid this it happens to me all the time if u still have the address that u sent the bit coin to (might be inside wallet) then just send a little extra over like £1-2 normally sorts it out for me might not be what ur asking but if it is sometimes u have to bite the bullet :)
i understand but does not explain what happens(ed) ... you seem to suggest that the vendor can randomly make this up to get some extra monies?... yikes! considering how much they have gain with BTs coin to ceiling, being chased after for 0.003 (BTW not £1-2, probably 15 times that including new fees to transfer again!) feels a bit greedy... i guess i need to buy more BTC now so I can have what I purchased already released... feels like a brexit fee!
What can happen is the amount of btc you send is pretty close to the dollar value ie 0.0007 btc = $70.13 and your order is for $70, if btc value should drop during the transaction and lb auto adjusts prices your 0.0007 is now worth less than the $70.
This creates the partial order,the vendor is looking at lb prices and sees they should have been sent 0.0008 to cover the $70,that is why sometimes when you put an order in you find that the amount of btc you are sending dollar value is actually higher than the product asking price in dollars.
This can be worse the higher the amount of btc you are sending.
Its not your fault,its not the vendors fault and its not lb fault its just the way btc works,yes it is a pain in the butt.

There is a few solutions you could for example if you notice that the btc value is close to the dollar value you could send 0.00072 this will gave you a safety net of a dollar incase btc value drops,the other way could be lb adding another decimal place to the prices,it would not stop it from happening but might cut back on the number of times it happens,especially when btc is bouncing up and down like a pair of whores knickers.
Scratch that thinking again it would probably make it worse.
Scratch that thinking again it would probably make it worse.
I have underpaid before, I fell short by about £5 and the vendor just asked me to add the extra to my next order. There is always a network fee, which fluctuates depending on the time of day. Your vendor is stating your around £130 short? If that's correct that's a large amount by anyones standards. The transaction showing in your wallet 'sent ' file should show exactly what you paid and have the vendors wallet address that received it. I believe transactions via LB are handled by Escrow so if you have definitely paid in full, they should be able to help.
The network fee is clearly added to the sum when you do the transfer, it does not magically pop up at some stage. I had enough BTC, so really this make no sense...
ok, i meant a fee was applied and I could see that when i paid from my wallet... you seem to suggest another fee might have been applied in the process which i did not see...? that would be strange because the transaction record shows the entire amount being transferred, no record of another fee being applied...

does stiffness travel through muscles?
It seems like back soreness can spread to my legs or is it just becoming sore too later on its own
Sounds like Sciatica
"Sciatica is where the sciatic nerve, which runs from your lower back to your feet, is irritated or compressed. It usually gets better in 4 to 6 weeks but can last longer."
"Sciatica is where the sciatic nerve, which runs from your lower back to your feet, is irritated or compressed. It usually gets better in 4 to 6 weeks but can last longer."
May be general inflammation, I had something similar and was told to drink lots of water and take anti-inflammatorys..
Mineral water in a hot bath is good, and moderating sugar as that is a major source of inflammation.
Also tight hamstrings can cause back problems, a good stretch to do is to sit on the floor cross legged and lean forward, allowing a stretch on the tendon that runs past the base of your but and to your hamstrings, as this also effects your back, there are some other specific lower back stretches which aren't too difficult to find.
That said it could be an array of things and you can't beat a professional that cares about their job:)
Goodluck

I'm replying as someone who lost a good few years of their life due to debilitating back pain and sciatica. You've got some excellent information in these replies, and my main advice would be to see someone about it as soon as possible, don't ignore it and allow it to get worse.
I saw many 'experts' from various approaches, and did years of physiotherapy exercises, yoga, pilates, etc but I didn't make any real progress until I found a good chiropractor.
If something's 'out' somewhere, whatever that is, your body will try to compensate by moving away from that pain area, other muscles will take over to compensate for whatever's not working as it should, your posture will slowly change as a result, and that will cause further problems.
Sciatica (like any nerve pain) can manifest in strange ways - you might feel it as soreness, a tight localised cramping, like a hot wire running down through your ass or leg, or even like water being poured down your leg - the feelings can be very strange, sometimes just bothersome, sometimes extremely painful and debilitating.
There are all kinds of exercises you can do to help, as people are suggesting, particularly hamstring stretches (search for 'straight leg raise exercise with strap/yoga belt' - the belt/strap will provide support and help to minimise you straining your back even more) but I think you're much better off seeing a good chiropractor and getting them to recommend exercises that are specific to your issue and, importantly, won't risk worsening your issue by working on the wrong things or trying to do 'too much'. The alignment of your tailbone is very important when doing lower back exercises so, again, you need to know you're doing them right. I also see a sports injury physiotherapist (a very highly-trained one!) and they gave me very simple exercises that, in a short time, made me much stronger in my lower back and glutes (ass). Simple exercises that weren't 'too much', didn't take too long and could be done whilst high 😂. The yoga and pilates weren't helping much because I needed to get my skeleton back into the correct alignment *before* doing those things. Honestly, I tried yoga and pilates for years but couldn't make any real difference to my pain until I saw the chiropractor and got a good base to start from.
Now, my issues were quite severe and I don't want to alarm you as it sounds like you're nowhere near as bad as I was. This stuff can get bad quickly, though - just take some action on it now and don't let it get worse.
If you're open to seeing a chiropractor then find one that uses 'muscle testing' to help diagnose the issue. I wouldn't bother with NHS physios - they're just not trained to the level of good chiros or 'sports injury' physios, and I wasted a lot of time with them.
People have made excellent suggestions in their replies here. It's nice to see and I wish I'd had access to some of these suggestions when my issues started! With exercises, I'd also recommend looking up 'nerve flossing exercises', these are really helpful IF you have any nerve pain/sciatica (which you might not). The 'Warrior 1' yoga pose (Virabhadrasana) works the QL (Quadratus Lumborum) which will strengthen the area around your spine and give more support. Again, I'd recommend seeing someone first and getting exercises specific to your issue. Anti-inflammatories (like Ibuprofen) can cause their own problems, and I'd recommend a good curcumin (NOT turmeric) natural product instead, something like 'LLS Curcumin 95' (on Amazon). A warm bath with a couple of cups of epsom salts in will help ease your muscles (you can buy a big tub cheaply from Amazon, cheaper than buying little packs). Also, you could try some 'BetterYou Magnesium Oil' (Amazon, Holland&Barrett, etc), I know a lot of people who've benefited from that. Above all, try to see someone who knows what they're doing as soon as you can - and you'd be amazed what a few simple, targeted exercises can do for your discomfort.
Good luck with it - deal with it now and save yourself potential misery in the future! - and feel free to message me if you'd like. Cheers 👍

Yes 💯 stiffness travels through and takes over the muscles. I was having injections in my bum most days to relax my back muscles. If it's spreading to your legs that ain't great mate. sauna, steam room, jacuzzi And bro 💯 upgrade your mattress, some good deals out there.
Your whole muscular skeletal system is deeply connected and can imbalances can cause complex chain reactions. The back and hamstrings (which I assume you're referring too?) are part of the posterior chain. If one of them is tight, it will likely impact the other.
I don't generally perceive sciatic pain as 'soreness' but a deeper nervous pain, sometimes feeling like a shooting pain down the leg. Be careful stretching things that are already painful.
If it is your back and hamstrings, the safest thing I would recommend to start doing is stretch your hip flexors and hamstrings. Do not round your back doing these stretches. Tight hips can lead to underactive glutes, which can put strain on your back and legs.

It sounds like sciatica.
I suffer from this occasionally after receiving an injury to my lower spine.
If your intervertebral discs are bulging and pressing on the nerves in your spine you may experience soreness, numbness, pain etc down the path of the nerve which branches off and travels down each leg.
When it flares up I am a broken man. Make sure you look after yourself.
As Yourmumshouse suggested, there are many reasons for this to occur I.e lifestyle, posture, injury.
Get proper medical advice if symptoms are serious.
Best advice/excersise that works for me is to be active.
I was also recommended a yoga exercise which has helped strengthen the back muscles and I would be happy to share that if anyone is interested.

5 reasons you should consider drops
i would love to take a walk in london to pick up my gear.
5 reasons you should consider drops
just wondering if any of you lot have thought about drops as a delivery option.
1 it's safer for you than the post office
2 it's same day delivery, this is unbeatable by anyone on lb and can compete even with legalisation.
3 customers will pay a nice premium for it
4 it's proven in eastern europe every day where drops are the primary form of delivery for cannabis.
5 escrow is going to treat it the same as postal delivery since its exclusively reputation based anyway.

With the price of petrol you are going to need a good few customers in a tight geographical area! 😵💫
Hydra,the Russian darknet market use drops and that operates over some pretty large parts of Russia.
I'd imagine like most of life it's swings and roundabouts.
Hydra have been using drops for years.So,it obviously works for them,no?
P.S. You might not be so Keen on your "smiley postie" after a few missing packs

Wishful thinking, but say a vendor gets an order from Yorkshire and one from London, is he meant to arrange 100s of miles of driving for a few 8ths? I think not
i think a better use of this would be a treasure hunt promotion all around London and the world for that matter.

just make it easier for people to take a punt. 110usd to first try a cart isnt the marketing you want, especially if you are looking to get feedback going and start here.
To be honest with you, this is not our primary platform and although we do care about our customers experience in relation to the product we will not be reducing prices in any situation. We don’t need marketing. As I have said in previous replies, do your research on social media where you will find us.
I don’t see anyone else in the U.K. or EU producing lab reports, qr codes on the box to link back to COA or using 95% distillate. This all costs money and we aren’t a charity. If you want to continue putting sub standard stuff in your lungs because it costs £50 per 1ml go ahead, that is your prerogative not ours.
We simply put the best product on the market. Simples.
Have a good day.

BTW. I EAT MY WORDS.
You had no rep.
No sales.
But after a year? ( maybe more)
If I still indulged I would be happy to buy your product.
My hats off guys.
Apparently you have a premium product!
Very sorry for the super belated apology

Just discovered you guys when you arrived here.
I ordered a cart and it arrived quickly.
The product was excellent, but it wasn't until I was about to throw the packaging out that I found an auto-draw battery for the cart.
This was an unexpected free extra and better still, you made no fuss about it. It was just nestling at the bottom of the jiffy.
The new battery is a better experience all round and more economical than the old push-button battery I had been using.
You seem to care about the customer which in my experience is a rare thing.
I have returned for a repeat order and although there has been a bit of a bump in the price, I'm looking forward to the next one.
So glad that we're finally getting somewhere close to what they've had in LA for years.

I’m a tad confused, sorry if this is a daft question: so I get a 1ml cart and an auto-draw battery- am I good to go or do I need another piece of kit to plug it in to??
Hi mate,
Please can you leave a review on your actual order?
You can copy and paste but they think is suspect otherwise apparently.
Thank you in advance.

Please can you confirm you bought from us via this platform? We are being called out for fake reviews...
I did buy from this platform. I took a punt. It worked out well.
My review was genuine. I've responded more fully in a new comment above.
Hope that's OK.
Still getting used to how this all works.
Forgive me, I'm half a century old and this isn't my natural medium. :-)
Peace and love

Did you buy one of these on LB? I find it bizarre that having made this account the first (or one of first) purchased that you made is from a vendor with no rep!!! And why have you not reviewed the purchase from your orders?!?!?!?!?
Sorry Dude don't I don't buy any of it.
Most of the scammers that have been on this sight at least purchase their own product with an alt account just to get a 10 on the product and their vendor page.

I've now worked out how to do it and have left a review for my second order with G6.
The first review was posted after my first order, but before I registered. Those are the facts.
I'm sorry if people think I'm not real. I'm a daft old man for sure, but definitely genuine, :-)
Try ordering from G6. If you get the same service and product I did (I ordered Gelato), maybe that will convince you I'm real.

Your suggestion is ridiculous, do you research online before you make assumptions, we would never buy our own product. We have won awards, you are just unaware of the facts.
From G-Mac “ Just discovered you guys when you arrived here.” so he found you on LB but purchased somewhere else?!?!?!
So here are the Facts.
You have Zero sales and Zero reviews from sales from LB!
I could give a flying fuck about the rest of you claims.
TO ME it doesn’t add up!
I am happy to be proved wrong.
There a plenty of guys selling their own carts on here and the good carts sell well! MJ has over 3000 reviews on his.
So have the guys that are leaving reviews that have bought from elsewhere BUY ON LB and leave a review.

Middleman247 purchased elsewhere and put us on here. We don’t have time for this. If you don’t accept what we are don’t buy. Don’t try sling mud on our name when you haven’t even tried our products.
Good luck.
Good luck.
The review came from someone who had purchased from us externally to little biggy, what’s so hard to understand?
Thank you very much for taking the time to review our product. We started this brand to provide a better customer experience as high quality is not common in Europe and there are too many fake US carts these days.
Enjoy

Been buying off this vendor from other places for a while now. His products are immense. The strongest in the UK for sure. I’ve had Cali carts and these are better. MUCH better. Buy these - you will not be disappointed.
Thank you so much for leaving us a review. We are ever so grateful and hope you continue to enjoy our products.

3 gelatos landed this morning. I’ve had 15+ carts and every single one of them has been immense. I’ve just cracked a gelato open and sitting in the sun puffing away. I say puffing - 2 to 3 3 second puffs melts your head! My preference is definitely indica - can’t wait for the banana to come back into stock. I was lucky enough to try the same batch that went into the Camelot cup win. Sativas are lovely too - the strawberry cough is super smooth and the pineapple terps taste really nice. I’ve pretty much switched from 100% flower to 95% vape and my chest feels way better for it.
Please go into your order page and leave a review so that the vendor has recorded sales and listed reviews so we can all start to buy with confidence! You claim to have spent over $1500 so throw them a frikkin’ bone will ya!
Was hoping for your view please. I’ve now sampled two carts, which in both cases give me an incredible urge to cough which results in sputtering my guts up!
I was already an oil user for years via another vendor and although this oil gets me a lot higher and I prefer the more natural terp, I do not cough at all from the other oil (other than if the cart filter was letting oil though).
I’ve tried all sorts to stop - covering my tongue over the end etc, but that feeling at the back of my throat is annoying!
I really love this oil but I can’t stand this coughing issue. From discussions I’ve had it seems as there may be oil speckles getting through hitting the throat when vaping.
I just wondered what experience you’ve had and what you suggest...

I’ve had 6 carts from G6, who set me up with compatible battery and charger on first order. Instantly up and running. Banana kush was an absolute game changer, from always just smoking spliffs. The gelato was on par, with Banana kush and sour diesel out in third. Looking forward to trying more. Thanks G6 this has been exactly the spliff replacement needed.
Q.Q - what is the best way to store the carts pls?

Well, this has gone nuts!
My review seems to have been deleted, but I assure everyone it was absolutely genuine.
I have been using LB for a few weeks after a friend pointed me in the right direction.
I had previously ordered from Whitey Walker like others here, but when G6 appeared I gave them a try and as I previously said, was impressed with the service.
I had been using LB without a login, but I registered after my first order with G6 as I was so impressed with the free battery, the quick service and the product and I thought that deserved a good review.
It's that simple.
I can only speak from my experience and it's been totally positive so far.
If that changes I'll say so, but for now I'll repeat that I'm glad this product is available as it means we are finally getting close to the standard that LA has enjoyed for years.
I'm sorry if my comment has caused any trouble. That wasn't my intention.

No offence but could you provide a link to your online presence? When I googled ‘G6 Extracts award winning vapes’ I got two nasty scam virus sites....
I’m thinking exactly the same. I’ve been checking back as I’m keen to give this a try. Can anyone confirm this is legit or do I stick to the delightful whitey walkers?
We can not put links to external sites here as you should know, if you can not find us on one of the big 3 social media platforms then I can’t help.
Can’t find jack shit online about you. I’m not having a go fella, I get through a ton of these and some lads/lasses on this page have made an absolute fortune out of me, especially if they held all that BTC. No sales and no reviews looks a bit funky. Anyway, good luck, I’ll let someone else take the risk before I go all in.
Don’t understand, we have done sales on here but fair enough we are not short of business. Good luck to you too.
Where are your sales???
That’s what doesn’t add up!!!
Every vendor that makes a sale it is posted on their main page. 1 2 3... 25+ 50+ and 100+ sales. At the time of me writing the first post YOU DIDNT HAVE ANY.
So where are they?

This thread is for people who have tried our products, you clearly haven’t so why are you posting?
Ask little biggy not us. We are new to this and can only tell what we have fulfilled.
No worries, it’s just there is no rating at the top of the page. Gotta say though mate, it does look the mutts mutts from the pics on your page. As soon as I see some reviews and ratings next to the product, I’ll get some decent orders in.
We are new to little biggy and it’s confusing as there are people who have bought from us who have left positive messages on this thread however, people who haven’t bought from us are calling us out as fake. How does that work?
Keep an eye out for the reviews, am sure they will feed through soon.

Looking much better now G6. Reviews rolling in I see :). Fair play to you man, apologies for doubting, I’ll put an order in this week.
I’ll say it again.
I will eat my words and print a massive apology if this is a genuine mistake because you are new and do not understand the the weird way this sight works.
A buyer purchase your product. Sends his BTC to escrow. When it has been received the buyer has a notice on his order form that it has been paid.
The vendor then at some stage sends the product and marks this as sent.
The buyer the Can leave an anonymous review out of 10 and the time it took to arrive... and then can leave an anonymous detailed review if he or she wishes.
I have never sold anything on here so if you DO have genuine sales on here they are not showing up on your page.
It might be a simple case of you not doing something for a person not being able to leave a review I don’t know I’m not a vendor.
Can you see now why things are not adding up for someone looking to possibly purchase? All of the other vendors on here that have sold products show all of this info on there page. Yours doesn’t!

We have fulfilled all the orders we have received here and everyone has landed. You will be eating your words and I expect that apology soon.
I know exactly how it works as I have been entering tracking and marking when sent.
IF YOU HAVE PURCHASED FROM US ON LB PLEASE LEAVE REVIEW ON ACTUAL ORDER IF YOU HAVE TIME.
Thank you.

My full and heart filled apologies. I know that it is delayed. And I said I would eat my words. From all the reviews (although a very premium priced product) you have proved me wrong. I am glad for that!!
I hope after all this time you can see my scepticism for your assertions.
It looks like you are a valued member of the community!

The strawberry cough is a beautiful high, after a few pulls i sat down and wrote a days work in a few hours. I’d zoned out? Nah I zoned in. This vendor is top class and UK based. I’m MM24 and I approve this message.
Thank you so much for the review and getting us to look a little biggy. We are very grateful.

If initiatives are to guide our development work instead of borgs we need a rational process like the one attempted here.
No one can ever know what the majority of biggas want without a polling system that gets a good sample. Vocal vested interests are a worthy source of ideas and should be weighed against each other (and other priorities that aren't so apparent).
As an example of priorities consider the 2 initiatives recently posted: inventory controls and sterling based pricing. In a headline they sound rational and obvious but with some unemotional discussion it's pretty easy to see they don't have much impact.
Our inventory counter could be marvelous (it's what we shoot for when we actually get to something) but it will not interface with sales on other platforms thus still requires most sellers to manually maintain and update by order. It's also common for sellers to combine and manage sizes dynamically. Yes it sounds like basic functionality -embarrassingly so ;) - but the reality is it will only benefit a very small number of people.
The currency issue is actually on our immediate horizon but the issue isn't changing to sterling. It makes obvious sense to peg things to the most stable fiat currency and then display as many others as is practical but whatever we do sellers will need to constantly adjust prices relative to inflation and deflation and as sterling drops there is simply no way around this requirement.
So neither of these are going to make life much better but to write them now we would need to drop projects on our infrastructure. And while these projects are not very visible other wide-impact projects currently prioritized are:
Tags are long overdue on lb and we have an open source project that is making good progress you can watch. More features from open projects are still coming this year and will effect every bigga.
Anyway, we salute the initiative borg for their efforts and the advocates getting initiatives off the ground.

This makes sense but it would be nice to hear from you a little more, when there is no feedback people get frustrated and you get shitposting instead of the intelligence that is there waiting.
Sorry but a stock counter doesn't have much impact is all we've heard from this post and its so frustrating it has a massive impact as multiple users have stated in the post below, you say it doesn't interface with the sales but every other marketplace we've used has this feature! This site has been great in many other ways we find it laughable that this is your response to a serious problem, the only people it benefits are the admins as it never restricts sales so as long as the order is fulfilled with a substitute you guys get your cut, how can other places implement a stock counter as a basic feature but it to complex to work on this site, is that what we're meant to believe because we've seen simple methods that can easily avoid the above issues you've stated, so we see no reason not to add this feature but from your response you seem to think tags are the priority!
The fact that you use other marketplaces is their point. Sell a unit there and how will the inventory counter know here? It still comes down to you updating constantly.
No we understand their issue but the fact they think it won't make life better is laughable when theres a thread below with nothing but reasons arguing for it, obviously there is a way for it to pick up on a sale for both sites as Transaxe is fully capable of a similar process so its not really a valid reason for us but no sense arguing about it they obviously cant be bothered to even entertain the idea.
I've never seen anyone asking for advanced cross-platform functionality. Being able to pause sales automatically when the inventory sells through avoids the unprofessional friction of cancelling buyers purchases.
appreciate a dev post, but why do you think a stock updater will benefit few people?
sounds like it would benefit All sellers?
Ive been done by subs a few times, and that's just me? 🤔
even if it needs some manual input from sellers, I'm not sure why if they bang in a hidden total and then just subtract the weight or stock number automatically when purchased once confirmed paid?
P. s. a polling system would also be a juicy update 😉

These are only our opinions, these and others will be heard in a rational initiative like the one outlined here. It can also refine what exactly we are trying to build and how that fits into what else we all need.
To add to this... I like the idea of an end of year awards thing just for a bit of fun. Top 3 vendors, top bargains, best flower/hash/cart/other etc.
If you changed the currency to sterling being that 95% or more of this sites traffic and customer base is from the UK, sellers wouldn't need to constantly change the price of listed items (not that they do anyway) and it would remove the need to do so
for instance , £30 is always going to be £30, inflation isn't affecting us in this sense, the only reason inflation and deflation affects us is because the prices are set in dollars... if you can't see how this benefits all of us can you please explain then why the sites currency is set to dollars? how are dollars benefitting anyone??
it's absolutely astonishing to me that this, and the stock counter is somehow not beneficial to many of us? it's one of the best and most important changes to ever happen to this site
I appreciate the reply and that you gave us some insights, and while things like 'tags' are a welcome change, they aren't saving anybody any money, and money is absolutely everybodys number 1 priority by a margin so big i can't think of an appropriate word to describe it, nothing can make our life better than saving us money!

Fully agree with everything here. Any opinions against changing to £ not being a priority are completely deluded. I'll be honest in saying I sometimes use a different site on the darkweb for orders, which is based in £s. I don't want my purchases to be a gamble. As a customer I want 35 quid to be 35 quid. Vendors won't have to continually keep altering prices. The one reason I shop here more is the community, reviews, variety and generally chilled discussions. However in testing times I want £30 to be £30 and not creeping up daily as I can buy quality weed at a stable price elsewhere.
Mate thanks for seeing sense! it's so crazy that people are still trying to gaslight me over this and try to pick holes in it.... absolutely unbelievable, and those people are getting upvoted as well, seriously it's not even delusion at that point it's just straight up stupidity
the amount of money that every single one of us has lost collectively since i started this subject a couple weeks ago will be in the 10's of thousands already, i'm so fucking tired of pouring my energy into this only to be gaslit and ignored, still waiting on a reply from the borg again too, bloody hopeless this is

huh? sellers will have to change prices *way more often* if they are set in an inflating currency like sterling. if you don't get this just go to the grocery store.
for the same reason that waitrose needs to change its prices, inflation. it takes more pounds to buy anything, there is no getting around this ;(
that's not how cannabis works though, it's not affected by inflation in the same way that groceries are, infact, cannabis has actually decreased in price during this massive inflation hike > ref the link
in 20 years of buying weed, i've never been told "sorry mate that's going to cost you an extra tenner today, cuz of inflation"
£10 a gram is pretty standard pricing and it has been for over a decade, of course people sell grams at different prices, but this isn't because of inflation
sterling and dollars are equal in terms of stability, inflation is only affecting us because the sites currency is set to dollars, I cannot explain this any clearer.

This is ridiculous you know what the people want and don't want its clear for all to see, most people don't bother weighing in on these posts as they don't believe anything will change just stop messing about and make the changes!!!
from my p.o.v. i think its absurd to stop infrastructure or tags for everyone to have this but just bring it to a proper vote and we can find out.
Hey biggas hope you're all having a nice high weekend, i'm not, thanks to royal mail strikes!
anyway just wanted to bring this up for probably the 10th time this year, we NEED the site to switch from the use of dollars to the obviously more sensible option of british pounds, the conversion rate right now is so fucked and it's costing vendors lots of money and costing buyers shitloads of money having to deal with this!
EVERY SINGLE DOLLAR NOW COSTS YOU 10P MORE THAN IT DID MERELY A FEW WEEKS AGO, LET THAT SINK IN FOR A MOMENT!
it's making every single order a decent amount more expensive and it's all adding up very fucking quickly, not to mention the price of everything everywhere going up, and all this for what? surely it's literally the click of a button to change the sites currency from stupid $ to £... what are we waiting for seriously? and why does it constantly have to be bought up for nothing to ever be done about it? it's leaving a really shit taste in my mouth after every order knowing i'm being bent over by extra costs out of our control that could be solved at the click of a button for an LB admin months and months ago... what is going on....
anyway just wanted to bring this up for probably the 10th time this year, we NEED the site to switch from the use of dollars to the obviously more sensible option of british pounds, the conversion rate right now is so fucked and it's costing vendors lots of money and costing buyers shitloads of money having to deal with this!

If things keep going at this rate it will be $1:£1 before the end of the year, which seems absolutely insane but it's probably going to get even worse than that...
Anyway please borgs make the change, you know it makes sense <3

Thanks for chiming in brother i really appreciate it!!
honestly within the context of this site and without trying to gaslight any biggas, this is probably one of, if not the most important subject / topic of discussion we could possibly be having right now, please do not let this slide this time biggas
we need as much attention and votes drawn to this as possible, this affects every single one of the sites users with every single order, this needs to sorted with the utmost of urgency, the damage has already been done for months now and it only gets worse with every single order

Sadly I don't think a lot on here realise how much both vendors and customers are being shafted by the conversion.
I think we need *every* currency here and as a European changing to £ would suck worse. at least the $ is a standard for the world if you are only going to have 1.
we don't need every, and we dont need another brexit axis either. we just need major currencies and btc and let the users choose.
Good point well made, I think with the general instability of the world economy LB need to ensure the site remains economically viable, peeps are skint or more skint than usual and it is going to get worse. Thank you Hesh for taking the time to Spearhead this, it’s is indeed of benefit to all users, get behind this biggas before the algos sink the subject again
Thanks for helping keep this topic visible Emz, and also adding your take on it which i couldn't agree with more! things are getting worse VERY quickly and we can't just sit around doing nothing
i'm going to bump this topic every single day till we hear from a borg / admin, the algo's trying to sink it as fast as possible it seems

Thanks, hesh. This needs to be addressed NOW. Glad I'm not alone in feeling arse-reamed by a failure of LB to act ethically. This STINKS: sort it out or I for one will look for alternatives as anal isn't my thing.
Man every single order is over 10% more expensive than it was a couple weeks ago, it's so bad i was not happy making an order earlier knowing i'm overpaying for no reason
it's not just the 10% either it's having to buy even more BTC to cover the extra cost meaning more fees for buying the BTC etc etc...

Thanks hesh - very important topic especially with rising cost of living adding pressure in general.
Is anyone able to explain to me why vendors are losing money by having the site set in $? I totally understand how it costs more for buyers, but surely vendors are making more ££ profit if they don't adjust $$ prices downwards periodically? Is it to do with vendor fees being in $ too?

Thanks for bringing further attention to this topic, I appreciate it!
my understanding was, in the case of vendors, the overall price of orders is unnecessarily higher than it needs to be (because of the exchange rate) which will lead to a loss in sales during a time where sales are likely to be down already due to the current economy, just another lose lose situation
just a quick tidbit, but transaxe, LB's payment processor, works in BTC not £ or $, and the fees are a fixed percentage, so i cannot see a reason for this change not to be implemented ASAP

Fully agree can't see LB acting though they will just sit back and watch the impending doom.
Also take into account by the years end markets are going to crash, housing, stocks & crypto's which would take the BTC price to around 10k so vendors also have that to look forward to.
Not only did vendors get hit bad at the start of the year and most are still recovering from that tidal wave we now have a perfect storm brewing and what do we do?? We keep on lowering our prices!!
This is a huge car crash just waiting to happen!!
The only way is to either put your prices up to give yourself a buffer which would mean losing biz or all vendors go on strike till it's sorted which won't happen either.
Otherwise, vendors will be crying in their coco pops after the crash realizing they have been wiped out!

I managed to get stocked up well with one of RealD's promos at the end of June, so I've been pretty well insulated from the exchange rate shenanigans the last couple of months. Now it's time to start looking for a top up and I'm feeling it...
I can't say that it's going to stop me from buying from any vendor on here, mostly due to convenience (its a fecking nightmare finding a dealer irl when your body is fucked and you don't particularly like dealing with people in person), but if the actual dollar prices on here start to rise alongside the exchange rate tanking and all the fees that come with using bitcoin, on my budget, it would definitely force a rethink.
So yeah, I agree with the suggested change and will follow/bump your thread, in hope more than expectation.

dollars is just a denomination, anyway you slice it the sellers will need to explicitly lower their prices if buyers are going to realise any gain here.
it's not just a denomination, prices on here are incredibly rarely / not at all adjusted to the constantly changing exchange rate of dollars to pounds, leading to inherent and frankly unnecessary instability for everyone along with the added instability of bitcoin, it's a lose lose situation, since the vast majority of the buyers on here will have £'s in their bank account, not $'s
a $60 order a month ago was considerably cheaper than a $60 order today for example, and prices haven't changed to account for the devaluing £
there's no need for any of this to happen, which is unanimous at this point, absolutely everyone will gain from this with immediate effect

They definitely do, as we've had changes made before via threads / voting / topics etc
but of course we can't ever seem to actually correspond with the 'admin' so to speak, for obvious security reasons but it's incredibly frustrating!
there's been a LOT of good vendors who have abandoned this place recently due to the total lack of communcation between the vendors and the people who run the site and the glaring issues that still plague the site
there's tens of thousands of £ going through this site on a weekly basis yet it's somehow next to impossible to get even simple changes implemented
I need to make an order right now but it's going to be £15 more expensive than it was a month ago, because we are STILL USING THE WRONG FUCKING CURRENCY
i cannot understand how this issue isn't at the forefront of everyone's mind in the context of this site, this should literally be pinned to the top of the topic wall with hundreds of votes and replies till it's corrected!

Sounds like they need to get on top of it before somebody else dives in and a creates a modern lb type platform with all of the good features and things we wish for here. I can't be too critical of lb though. They are my only platform for buying my medicine. I don't know any real life dealers as I was late to the weed game and none of my friends partake. We all want everything cheaper in life and ultimately somebody usually loses out but this currency change we are after is a win for all three parties involved, vendors, customers and lb devs.
Is that the official Littlebiggy response? Get the vendors to pay the extra on top of the 15% ?
yes a borg pointed out that every seller needs to change their prices for any effect so why not do this now?
Who else thinks the admin have malicious intent with no changing over to £, I mean obviously there must be a reason why when it makes obvious sense for everyone
Apologies if I’m being totally dumb here, does happen a lot, but I don’t understand how the dollar - sterling exchange rate is affecting anything.
My understanding is the dollar price next to items is a guide price only, the real price is the bitcoins and it doesn’t matter if your in the UK or the US the bitcoin price is the cost regardless of what currency you are buying bitcoins in.
Are you buying dollars with sterling then buying bitcoin? Or selling coins for dollars and converting to sterling?
Apologies if I’m missing something obvious here.

Let's use a simplified example..
Vendor uploads new item and wants to sell it for £10.
The exchange rate is £1 = $0.50.
Vendor sets a price of $20.
Pound weakens and now £1 = $1.
This means the vendor has to change the price or the buyer has to pay more for the same thing.
As vendors usually sell more than 1 item and the value of the £ is changing so rapidly, it either costs the vendors lots of time to keep the prices accurate or lots of money in lost sales because people don't buy due to increase in price.
Hope this helps explain things :)

I do keep an eye on the btc prices of items and I see them change quite often as much as 10 times an hour, as the price of btc moves.
Do those vendors have to manually adjust their prices or is there a sql script do it?
Seems sensible to have a scriot that’ll adjust the retail price as coin value moves

Oumuamua was the first object ever seen flying into our solar system and back out again. It's unknown how it was powered or wear it came from.
What about the monument built on mars moon that buzz Aldrin goes on about u can clearly see its shadow and the human like face (looks like a monkey wearing a helmet) and pyramids all caught in pictures on mars surface in 1990 with is exactly the same alinement as the pyramids of giza on earth ? plus mars surface is full of a chemical that only after nuclear bombs leave.
is this what you're talking about? tried looking it up as it seemed interesting don't think this is it

all jokes aside though very interesting how it was "hardly moving" until it got into our solar system then started to accelerate. For all we know we're looking for the wrong "signs" of life or sending the wrong kind of radio signals

How DOES that thing work??
How DOES that thing work??
i know what you mean and whilst i totally agree, i've pretty much stopped using the wall since the site had a makeover, it takes about ten times longer than it used to just to have a quick browse of the wall to see what's about!
resorted to bookmarking about 15 different vendors and i just check my bookmarks when looking for what to order! sometimes will check the first few listings on the wall but thats it!
need some sort of filter or something on the wall as well, i don't buy hash / vapes or concentrates anymore so it's a pain sifting through so many random items when you're just looking for flower.

And this is the exact reason something needs to change as hesh says people are resorting to bookmarks and workarounds because the wall has unusable lately it doesn't make it a fair marketplace for all sellers,
We love to see our listings at the top of the wall and we are just as happy to see it change and list a new vendor at the top the following day but having the same items up top for weeks on end just seems like a slap in the face to all the vendors putting in the extra effort,
Apparently something has changed recently and it seems to have a knock on effect with everything even the topics page doesn't seem to rotate as many posts as previously,
We don't know how it effects other vendors but LB had always been our favourite place to operate and lately it had been slower and slower since this change behind the scenes, if it ain't broke don't change it is what we say maybe we can go back to June's setting because whatever has changed this month is ruining the site :(

We feel your pain. It just seems crazy that some of the best vendors with the best products I’ve bought on LB are nowhere to be seen for all their efforts. It’s not an actual problem for me finding them because yes I’ve bookmarked them or I could google them but if it was me trying to advertise my products for new customers I’d be pulling my hair out!
Ye we have also noticed some changes in the way the wall and topics page functions hopefully someone figures out what makes it tic or RB could share his secrets :)
Thanks, I get that, I was just using him as an example of sellers being pushed down or off the Wall, seems tough for a lot of them trying to promote their wares!…
I was only thinking the same thing a couple of days ago! Think Super Hans has closed shop temporarily for a long weekend.
Yeah I saw that message, but he hasn’t been on the ‘upper’ wall for weeks. The same is true for a lot of popular sellers, must be frustrating for them!
I don't worry about the wall much, usually I check it and its easy to go through your previous orders if you don't want bookmarks on your browsers.
Sometimes vendor pages load up slowly when clicked, depending on how many items they got listed, it is better to click the vendors item and then the rest of their products are below that item when scrolling down after the reviews.. as the vendors store pages sometimes have trouble buffering.
I like the way it is though otherwise we'd be getting no access to products and all the business thats involved in it, great site.

Honestly it's bonkers, it's the new vendors I feel for the most as it's so mysterious whatever you need to do to appear on it
community involvement answering mesages not raising disputes remember the answer may not be harder than we think if your business you gonna fill shelves with stuff not selling LB gets a cut per sale if you selling ur on the wall or am i totally off the mark
Nahh that's not it, it's thrown around as that's how you do it but for example nwa2.0 post and reply to stuff and have sales and a good review score and not to be seen on the wall.
Then new ones like Reddoor and druids magic don't seem to get a look in, btw check out druid magics home made hash it looks ace and hopefully the postie bring me mine today

diuk new hash just went straight in at top good for them but the smaller more niche sellers got no chance must be someone computer wizard who can work it out or is it backhanders profit share not saying diuk just in general
That hash has a few comments made in topics on it, I think that users making topics that become active is a big thing, druids magic are now close to top with a product and they have had quite a lot of posts about them over the weekend 😎

Think that should work
I have a gram of each hash enroute hopefully fingers crossed landing today.
Vendor is really nice to talk to and in typical little biggy style I found them via a topic that has since disappeared 🤷🏻 where the person posting it basically slagged off the pictures of the weed.
I shall review it once it arrives but to me all their stuff looks lovely

Huge numbers of those CD keys are the result of credit card theft/fraud. Whilst you can grab yourself a bargain, the developer ends up paying. It is encouraged to use piracy over shadey resellers, even by some developers.
as much as i'd love to stick it to EA i would hate to enable a thief so i looked at this and the site claims the codes are basically greymarket re-distribution. i'm not sure i believe this but i also don't see how they are in business without the tacit consent of Microsoft, Sony and a half dozen others that could crush their ass.
It's also hard to see how there could be a mass scale of game code theft. Unlike credit cards there aren't millions of databases holding your details.
The keys are not stolen. They are paid for with fraudulent means in some cases ( credit card theft, account phishing etc)

Fascinating! so if the chip can convert signals from the brain and use them to control a computer, does that also mean there is potential for the computer to control the chip, and therefore control the brain?

coca leaves?
exactamundo, feels healthier than coffee. crazy coca tea isnt legal. would be a sell out here on lb once people tried it.
It's easy to find people online who ship it to the UK but it's crazy expensive. I got 3 or 4 packs through customs a few years ago from Peru but run out very quickly!
Me neither - most overrated narcotic there is to be honest. The leaf itself is just a mild stimulant but I really enjoyed it compared to coffee in the morning; much less jittery and doesn't make you crash in the afternoon.

How littlebiggy is possible? Few questions from a fan/noob
I've been using littlebiggy for over 3 months . I am huge fan of this service and community .
Just regret I haven't found it few years earlier . I basically hate buying these kind of stuff in real world.Got few questions to all your LB veterans out there as I am a noob here. question 1. How littlebiggy is possible!?? Will it be here forever!?:)) Are there any alternatives or I shouldn't be worried?! I dont want to go back to old form of buying . It seems to me almost impossible that this kind of service is working so smooth and almost openly - cops aren't aware about this !? does anyone have the power to close this website in your opinion? #
question 2) so far I got less than 20 orders coming without any problems but 2 orders from two different vendors did not show up, 1 it is almost two weeks and 2nd is like 10 days and I am a little paranoid! I didn't contacted the sellers yet about the problem but I've ordered again and another order came thru after like 5 days. Should I be worried about these two missing letters ?!
I've used only two vendors so far DIUK UK which is very professional vendor in my opinion and maddabber-
question 3 ) should magic mushrooms and mushrooms pills which are available on LB be packet in smell-proof bags like weed or it is OK to just send them loose in small plastic bag inside envelope?
question 4) I am london based - I am looking for good lsd blotters or liqyuid drops - is it allowed/available on LB ?
Thanks for any answers ..
Just regret I haven't found it few years earlier . I basically hate buying these kind of stuff in real world.Got few questions to all your LB veterans out there as I am a noob here. question 1. How littlebiggy is possible!?? Will it be here forever!?:)) Are there any alternatives or I shouldn't be worried?! I dont want to go back to old form of buying .

1: little biggy has been around a while but by the looks of things is left alone, it may be because it's only weed and occasionally shrooms it may be another reason but I think it's safe to say it's known.
2: Always contact the seller regarding missing orders first, if get no response or are unhappy with any response the dispute button is there for a reason 👍
3:With the exception of petite fleurs ashtrays and joint holders I personally believe that everything should come vac sealed and have multiple layers of redundancy of stealth
4:I think that on the onion version of LB there were previously people listing what else your looking for not sure if they still are.

Thank for all the great answers. So there is onion version of LB - can you post the tor link please? I never used tor but it is good to lear that. Maybe they have lsd blotters in there :)
Someone else will need to do that as I don't use the onion version sorry but I have seen it mentioned before.
If I see the thread it's in I will link it 👍

LB is safer than buying from a street dealer in that you really do not know who you are buying from so no connection and no chance of getting busted coming out a house,why is it here well because lots of people demand good quality hash and weed,how does it get away with it i have no idea,but hey it does.
Missing packages well i think most of us have had at least one of those me i have had three over the years no old bill so either a mistake during shipping and somebody else got it or postman pat has sticky fingers,but you can get some packages that take time depends on how far it has to travel,but you should let the vendor know about it being late and have a discussion about what to do about it.
All the guys do their best on here used lots of them.
Cant help you with shrooms have not taking those for 30 years at least and last time 4 of us sat in the hall freaking out about the front door for 4 hours lol
Hope you get your packages sorted out :)

Great answers there my friend!....Regarding the legitimacy of LB, I have always assumed that its a US company and an "org", as it trades in dollars so it is not subject to UK laws & restrictions...can anyone shed further light on this,or are my assumptions correct?
It trades in US $ due to bitcoin being priced in that or something if I remember correctly.
I cannot imagine it being possible that the plod hasn't been observing this site regularly for the majority of its existence, actually if they haven't then they are even more incompetent than they regularly portray themselves to be
imo there's a couple things that allow this place to continue operating, firstly there are no 'hard' drugs on here
secondly, if they were to somehow shut this place down, they know the sites users will just migrate to other markets and that adds complications when they can just keep us all here in one place where it's easy to keep track of us :)

Dont think they care here either probably keeping the Royal Mail alive,stop it and they go bankrupt lol
if a package doesn't arrive press the dispute button, it's not impolite rather it's a help to the rest of us and it's very easy to cancel once you have the seller performs.
Here's the onion version of LB: http://societytxpukcvelwgkcfb76yni5a7n5iiueaxcwwgr73koycicrxqad.onion/u/login
I’m not saying you’ve had complaints or that you don’t enjoy it personally. However that’s just dosing…micro-dosing is a fraction of that, more like 10mg….the clue is in the ‘micro’….😉👍

Just dispute it, you will surely do better than 50%. The settlement borg overrides sellers terms.

50% Reship
Hi guys,
I have been buying from a seller for a while with no problems always arrived. I had one not show up the other day, I didn't receive a customs notice, it just didn't arrive. I contacted the seller asked if it was sent,they said it definitely was, they said they don't usually reship to Ireland but would on this occasion 50 %.
The question is, is a 50 % reship fair, should I be happy with it.

Hi Jack. Firstly it is not down to the vendor to decide on their terms and conditions - it'll be down to your rep (how many buys) and the vendor's rep too. Did you get it tracked postage? If so ask for the tracking number so you can see for yourself what happened to your parcel. Going back to my original point - after asking for tracking so you can see if it was 'actually' sent. I would then probably open a dispute and see where that's get you. If you didn't get it tracked then it really doesn't leave you anywhere and maybe the 50% reship is fair. Ireland is always a tough place for items to land - you see a fair few people getting stung by customs.
Which vendor are you talking about?

Hi I think this is fair as it is what we offer on reships too although for regular customers we often reship for free - i do know that there is a much higher chance of the shipment going missing if it is sent UK - ROI compared to if its a UK - UK shipment. have you had a look for a vendor that ships direct from Ireland to avoid customs ?
Thanks guys,
I in no way am saying that the vendor is untrustworthy, I believe them when they say it was sent, it was really was it fair that when the order doesn't arrive that you receive a 50% reship, I was more on the side that it was fair myself.
Thanks guys.

Thanks guys.
Without tracking then it is a 50:50 call- they insist they sent it, you insist you didn’t get it. With good reputations on both sides, Escrow is unlikely to improve on a 50% settlement.
100% settlements are where the vendor has buggered off or refuses any comms…

with these guys I wouldn't be too concerned. When they had some delivery issues a while back they sorted them out completely (as far as I was concerned anyway) and were very generous with the compensation. More than made up for the late delivery IMHO. I think the no reships thing can be overridden by the borgs or whatever they are but only if the seller has form for it and the buyer has a decent track record. That said I could be wrong. I've only had to dispute a few times in 2 years on here. 1 was the 3 letter acronym lot that scammed loads of people and their name gets posts removed. The others were making up for a 50% reship they didn't agree with and another was just a dodgy vendor who was gone in a heartbeat. Seems very hard for sellers to scam on here other than sending stuff not as shown. I think.... I'm rambling now....

Well it is a who is the greater fool speculation investment considering it isn’t an expanding company with people going to work everyday working to give dividends for shareholders to benefit.
buck up kid and remember every bitcoiner that has held on through these troughs has enriched themselves with returns beyond any professional investor on the planet.
Basically you are also holding and don’t want to put information out there that makes anyone sell
now thats the kind of fan i appreciate master redeye. of course my influence moves trillion dollar markets but this time i was merely stating a simple fact.
What a load of rubbish. Here is what Warren buffet the worlds greatest investor has to say about bitcoin.
Here are Buffett's 16 best quotes about Bitcoin and crypto, edited and condensed for clarity:
1. "Cryptocurrencies basically have no value and they don't produce anything. They don't reproduce, they can't mail you a check, they can't do anything, and what you hope is that somebody else comes along and pays you more money for them later on, but then that person's got the problem. In terms of value: zero." — CNBC, February 2020
2. "It's ingenious and blockchain is important but Bitcoin has no unique value at all, it doesn't produce anything. You can stare at it all day and no little Bitcoins come our or anything like that. It's a delusion basically." — CNBC, February 2019
3. "If you and I buy various cryptocurrencies, they're not going to multiply. There are not going to be a bunch of rabbits sitting there in front of us. They're just gonna sit there. And I gotta hope next time you get more excited after I've bought if from you and then I'll get more excited and buy it from you. We could sit in the house by ourselves and we could keep running up the price between us. But at the end of the time there's one Bitcoin sitting there and now we've gotta find somebody else. They come to an end." — CNBC, May 2018
4. "In terms of cryptocurrencies generally, I can say almost with certainty that they will come to a bad ending. If I could buy a five-year put on every one of the cryptocurrencies, I'd be glad to do it, but I would never short a dime's worth." — CNBC, January 2018
5. "Probably rat poison squared." — Fox Business interview at 2018 meeting
6. "It's a mirage basically. It's a very effective way of transmitting money and you can do it anonymously and all that. A check is a way of transmitting money too. Are checks worth a whole lot of money just because they can transmit money? I hope Bitcoin becomes a better way of doing it but you can replicate it a bunch of different ways. The idea that it has some huge intrinsic value is just a joke in my view." — CNBC, March 2014.
7. "It's not a currency. It does not meet the test of a currency. I wouldn't be surprised if it's not around in 10 or 20 years. It is not a durable means of exchange, it's not a store of value. It's been a very speculative kind of Buck Rogers-type thing and people buy and sell them because they hope they go up or down just like they did with tulip bulbs a long time ago." — CNBC, March 2014
8. "A rising price does create more buyers and people think 'I've gotta get in on this' and it's better if they don't understand it. If you don't understand it you get much more excited than if you understand it." — CNBC, May 2018
9. "It will feed on itself for a while and sometimes for a long while and sometimes to extraordinary numbers. But they come to bad endings and cryptocurrencies will come to bad endings." — discussing speculative bubbles at Berkshire's shareholder meeting in 2018.
10. "You're going to be a lot better off owning productive assets over the next 50 years than you will be owning pieces of paper or Bitcoin." — CNBC, March 2014
11. "I get in enough trouble with things I think I know something about. Why in the world should I take a long or short position in something I don't know anything about? We don't have to know what cocoa beans are gonna do, or cryptocurrencies, we just have to focus on eight or 10 stocks."— CNBC, January 2018
12. "It draws in a lot of charlatans. It's something where people who are of less than stellar character see an opportunity to clip people who are trying to get rich because their neighbor's getting rich buying this stuff that neither one of them understands. It will come to a bad ending." — 2018 shareholder meeting
13. "Bitcoin has been used to move around a fair amount of money illegally. The logical move from the introduction of bitcoin is to go short suitcases because the money that was taken in suitcases from one country to another — suitcases will probably fall off in demand. You can look at that as the economic contribution of bitcoin to the society." — CNBC, February 2020
14. "We don't own any, we're not short any. We'll never have a position in them." — CNBC, January 2018
15. "I don't have any Bitcoin. I don't own any cryptocurrency, I never will. I may start a Warren currency, maybe I can create one and say there's only going to be 21 million of them. You can have it after I die but you can't do anything with it except sell it to somebody else." — CNBC, February 2020
16. "I'm really sorry it happens because people get their hopes up that something like that is gonna change their lives." — CNBC, February 2019

warrens a charmer but the bottom line is i've beaten that hick every year since he turned 80
All depends on your appetite for risk. I’m sure a lot of people do well with bitcoin but with no underlying value it can go to zero.
Stocks have Book values and dividends which act as a margin of safety. Also the only real return from the stock market is the dividends, the rest is money being passed around a table. So if you are getting richer from trading, someone else is getting poorer

buffet simply doesnt understand any technology after 1970. thats why he has been outperformed by everyone for years now.
Yep agreed, he is not what he used to be. Still richer than most though. Who cares if I have 100 billion or 300billion;)

So will the biggy ever take on the dog.... BTC is good.... but retail needs to push this market .... any crypto doge high heads in here? Big up Biggy .... what a service....so Doge dam civilised!
That’s why they invented potcoin …. Hasn’t really taken off … but considering the amount of money involved in the states and Canada not really sure why …. Was a very early project after btc …. Very early !
I dunno man. It is literally a joke. Then again the gamestop nonsense started as a joke too... brb buying doge
Long time holder ... of lots from btc to whatever had a backbone .... unreal hype but as Elon said .... why not .... plus nice finger to the hedge snd banking cartel .....
I’ve nearly doubled the value of my dogecoin over 50 hours. A lot of legal businesses are now accepting it, including pornhub.
Only put in what you can afford lose.

Doge is going to moon and I can’t wait. I don’t really want to be able to buy bud with it though. I used to have btc which was meant to be an investment and it eventually all went on bud.
Hey does anyone know why bitpanda are charging €40 to send btc. Seems unusually steep, especially when only ordering €100 worth.

The Difference Between Sativa & Indica
Seems this guy's point is that the terms are not scientifically accurate given the interbreeding. He also thinks people are basing this on leaf shape …
The Difference Between Sativa & Indica
Do not pass GO until you know this, it's so fundamental that you wont believe you didn't know this before.
Sativa is exhilarating, it charges your mind and body with revelatory energy. Great for work and sport it's an uplifting daytime high. The downsides can be paranoia and a quicker road to dependence.
Indica is satisfying, it relaxes you in every way. Great for sleep. laughter and appetite it always relieves stress but is very likely to make you lazy in mind and body.
Using cannabis without knowing this basic difference is a lot more consequential than confusing red wine with white. Though the plants look the same they are basically opposites, evolving separately for millions of years.

Completely untrue. Genetically there is only the cannabis sativa L and at a molecular level they are all the same. The terpenes dictate the physical differences, smell, taste etc. and differing effects are due to the huge variety of growing conditions, climate, soil etc. The indica/sativa classifications have been around so long we have all bought into them, which is fine ‘cos they work for us in their simplicity, but the science disagrees. It’s only relatively recently that this has been fully examined but there are now a tonne of fully peer reviewed science papers on the subject. Whether any of those scientists are also biggaz would be useful to know! ;)
^this
have been aware of this for years and out of the hundreds of heavy smokers i've met / smoked with, spent thousands of hours talking about cannabis but the placebo sativa / indica nonsense never comes up, i've met a couple novice smokers who got wrapped up in that pseudo science but quickly found they don't have a preference for either 'sativa' or 'indica'
not only do the terps play a large part in weeds overall effects but the way it's grown, what it's grown in, and specifically most important is how far into flower it was harvested and what stage the trichomes are at! this is where a plants effects will come from.
for the sake of this example lets say you have a pure 100% sativa, and you are growing 2 identical plants, same strain + genetics from the same breeder, in one tent under the same lights with the same soil and nutes, if you harvest them a few days apart from eachother you will have two completely different smokes in terms of their effects, nothing to do with them being a sativa.

wow my decades long experience is 100% validation of the sativa/indica difference. huge basic difference with energy i derive from them.
in my pursuits of staying high all the time my formula is basically sativa to get it going and indica to insure sleep to make it to another high day. but thats another story ;)

i suppose there's no harm in you enjoying a placebo effect mate if it makes you happy :)
unfortunately the science can't really be ignored on this one, there's more than enough papers published now for you to read, here's an example of many > https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5576603/
"I would strongly encourage the scientific community, the press, and the public to abandon the sativa/indica nomenclature and rather insist that accurate biochemical assays on cannabinoid and terpenoid profiles be available for Cannabis in both the medical and recreational markets. Scientific accuracy and the public health demand no less than this"
i hope eventually, even on a market like this, we can abandon the copy and paste strain information from google since it's so far removed from being relevant to the product we are buying it's actually laughable, what we need is more detailed information on the terpenes and what stage the plant was harvested, these are the key things that actually give the plant it's effects!

If you are growing correctly and checking with a microscope, you should be getting the perfect mix of what the strain has to offer.
You will find most buds are not grown to perfection and chopped at week 8 not week 9.5 or 10.

this is exactly what it's all about, and this is what the science on this subject confirms too! it has absolutely nothing to do with this outdated hipster language of 'indica & sativa'!
it's all down to the genetics, terps, growing conditions and particularly important is what stage the trichomes were at during harvest!
the science is out there for anyone to read and it's far more difinitive than anecdotal comments on here from ignorant stoners who 'derive energy from plants' lol

it's one example of many articles and papers on this topic!
and it is true that a vast amount of people determine a 'sativa' and 'indica' by it's plant strucutre and the leaf shape falls into that, which is of course nonsense but there's a huge amount of people using this criteria unfortunately!

i don’t know about you but from the 1st time i ever smoked (thanks uncle gary) to a couple of years ago i didn’t even know the difference between indica and sativa.

lol it just sums it up really how outdated the language on this topic is, also dipensaries are starting to move away from the terms 'indica & sativa' since they have been shown to be nothing more than marketing language!
eventually the industry will move away from those terms entirely as the science progresses and it will become far easier to find strains that suit your needs!
also i noticed you've never mentioned once on any of the items on your menu if they are sativa or indica or hybrid, assuming it's because you know it's nonsense :)

Most modern strain on the market today, have been breed to be hybrids, hence the ratio indicators giving you a desired mix, and in turn desired effects. That is the beauty, of mixing strains, to create new and exciting, rolls of the dice.
Quite far from some strain's landrace origins, but certains strains can still be pure , for example:
100% Indica Northern Light.
100% Sativa Durban Poison.
Mixing the two would have a similar effect, to smoking a 50/50 hybrid, in theory. I better grow them both this Year, to find out.

I thought an indica is classed as such when it contains 5% or more of the terpene myrcene which has sedative effects due to the entourage effect with THC. It’s also why people say eating mangos whilst consuming cannabis makes you higher as myrcene is present in them.

Selective scam for international customers ?
just dispute it
Selective scam for international customers ?
This vendor is getting shady at this point.
Tried ordering a few time for friends while he agreed to ship abroad.
He keeps on justifying himself stating " there is no tracking since I ship items with postal stamps "
This is non sens for international customers...
One of my friend received what he ordered from you after 37 days while the two other friends of mine are still waiting for their order.
Non sens
Either you should do it the right way just like any other U.K vendor willing to ship intl. do or you should stick to domestic
Waste of time and money

its a meritocracy, maybe the purest example i've ever seen. don't spam, fight with customers or try anything dodgy. if you don't have the best quality have the best value. you'll get lots and lots of momentum from a good reputation here and you'll sell everything you can stock.
Magical algorithm needs to like you, I suspect that it's a combination of factors most of which I wouldn't hazard a guess at but forum interaction and stuff is good. which you seem to be doing, which is also good.

Nothing personal here but it's easy as hell to buy these bags and call your stuff cali. An unboxing of your importation or something legitimising would make a huge difference.
Well the strains are hand written and no cannaverify hologram or serial. Up to you to decide mate
Hi buddy that's a totally fare comment and I'm not a seller but my mate these 5 packs and asked me to offer them out on here to see if/how they sell. Hopefully you can see the quality in the pics and if these sell I may see if he wants to add more but only one of each. If further selling proves possible I will deff snap unboxing for you

If a user has lots of down votes does this matter? Is it just a popularity thing or can this be used as evidence for termination? Also, I've seen some users nominated for termination but surely you just sign up with a different user name? Why is this on my mind?... I need a smoke! :)

If you can figure out the algorithm on this site I will give you all my Bitcoin ( so either 10p or £6,000,000 depending on whether Elon has a good shit that day or not) :)
I love a challange lol. Elon gives me a headache lol!! But I wish I was that smart lol. Algorithm....?
The more vote interaction on a post, the higher up the wall it goes. It can be up votes or down votes or comments, it all counts as an increased interest value to the algorithm. Then it pushes that post because it thinks other people would also be likely to show interest. Although, that's only as I've been able to observe in a short time
The first time I down voted someone for an inane comment (IMO), they got so upset they went through my entire history down voting every comment I had ever made and then started hate-stalking me via private messages. The Force (of the down arrow) is strong in me!
Wow bro that's propper out of order. Hate trolls! Well if you have good connections on here the guys know who's good ect. Iv made good mates with a few guys on here just from buying bud
Votes churn something in the algorithm but I’m not sure what and they seem to be less important now as totals are hidden away.
Yup, anyone terminated can just sign up again or have multiple accounts at the same time- and they do!
Volume of topics and conversations seem to have fallen away rapidly with this latest version....

I think it's disappointing when lots of people down vote a particularly annoying fuckwittery post/comment and nothing really happens! Maybe a certain number of down votes should lead to deletion or something? Side note, I'm sure recently I commented on a post of yours regarding the new shopping basket, all innocent and friendly like but it seems to have been deleted!? Strange.
Downvoting now hides fuckwittery. That's a big step forward and will probably remove the need to nominate.
Other than that the only relevance is in dispute AFAIK.

to the sellers that stayed online during the blockchain meltdown: STRONGER
wherever there is panic there is courage. hats off to the many sellers that weathered the storm to keep this community strong.
Unfair comment really as all businesses have different situations and end games we know nothing about. It also kind of denigrates any vendor who felt the need to shut up shop for just a few days to suit their own circumstances.
I'll be sure to remind the next self employed person I meet that wanting to actually get paid for the work they do is a sign of weakness. Makes perfect sense that.

Just an observation,but if I told my suppliers,back in the day,that "lm really sorry,but the money I owe you is tied up with these other people,but I can possibly pay you some time soon" I'd have my hands broken.
Dumb and ugly to throw down on anyone who was forced to shut down.

I had a bricky round yesterday to quote me for re-pointing my chimney. It's probably only half a days work but we agreed on £150 cash because it's a risky job getting up there.
After reading all these insightful comments on this thread i've decided i'm not going to pay him.
Instead, when he knocks on the door at the end of the job and asks for the agreed amount of money for the work he's done, i'm going to play some Kanye West, put my hand on his shoulder, look him straight in the eyes and say;
"listen mate, i'm not going to pay you now, you just need to be a bit stronger"
I'll let you know how that one pans out....

to continue your analogy i reckon this bricky has worked with you already, he sees the bank is closed and he does his fucking job rather than leaving it like a bitch.
Tell him you can't pay him because of a fire in China and watch his laughter as he knocks your chimney down. Takes him twice as long though, because he's a fucking good builder :)

not surprised to see most of the og biggaz stayed online, they've seen enough shit with bitcoin to be used to this.
Theyve been through a lot of profit too, bitcoin has skyrocketed and the losses don't compare to the gains.
It's only profit when you've been paid. P.S. really hope no vendor's ended up in a sticky situation with their supplies whilst waiting for money from lb.
lol what an idiot. Vendors started shutting up shop when several of em noticed payments were bouncing. On top of that within 48 hours of a few of us shutting up payments started coming in and much smaller than before. Easy to chat shit when you don't have any skin in the game,
Half these vendors here grow there own shit so don't feel any losses when things like this happen.
Vendors who outsource items, who pay set prices, these are the ones feelling it. Not these home growers lol.
I lost loads of profit margins due to the sheer drop in bitcoin value while waiting patiently for my bitcoin so I could cash it out before any more losses or even exchange to a stable coin.

how can ethereum keep getting more valuable when there is no limit to mining?
started topic
ETH is going to be limited after the hard fork and it's the back bone of the crypto world. That where you go to build on the blockchain. It's still undervalued I believe.
ETH is switching from Proof of Work (This is GPU/ASIC mining) to Proof of Stake,
You can look up 'EIP 1559' and 'ETH Proof of Stake' if you want to know more.
You can look up 'EIP 1559' and 'ETH Proof of Stake' if you want to know more.
DeFi is coming, around 22% of ETH is locked up in smart contracts, let that sink in 🔐🔐
Gunna keep saying it, would be brilliant if we can start paying in something other than BTC...
Gunna keep saying it, would be brilliant if we can start paying in something other than BTC...
Is it unlimited though ?? When ethereum 2.0 comes out all the original existing ethereum will start to get burned with every transaction or exchange ?! Then 3.0 comes around and the cycle repeats itself? maybe wrong but that’s how we understand it
I'm certainly no expert but from what I've read there should be a seamless transition from ETH to ETH 2.0. They are one in the same.
Could be wrong, happy to take advice as I've got a few quid in ETH.
Cheers BB

Hi BB , yep definitely one in the same and transitioning is seamless 100% but as far as we understand the existing eth ( the ones we got ;) ) will start to get ‘burnt’ off over time , miners start receiving less of the fees/commission and a certain amount just gets burned in between transactions and exchanges? Haha same, we maybe wrong, but that’s how it got explained to us ?! Either way to the moon with eth let’s go ^^^

the usual facebook data suck plus the don't leave the store with this item even after you pay for it hustle.
it's a new medium to explore on its own terms. it doesn't beat the old platforms on much yet but it has it's own magic to enjoy.
It's a game changer in every sense of the word, go for it and make a new fb account - I agree with Jonny's point.
Think the technology is awesome and some of the games coming out look class. Only issue I have is with Facebook. Stories like this make me think twice about investing https://theconversation.com/facebooks-virtual-reality-push-is-about-data-not-gaming-145730.

Got one at Christmas, and to a kid who grew up in the 80s and has been promised VR since the early 90s, it's a dream come true. they are amazing pieces of kit for the price tag, and if you can link it up to a powerful enough pc, the games are an incredible experience. That said, the games that run on it natively can be excellent too, and by far the standout for me is SuperHot:VR. such a simple game, but so bloody brilliant and an easy way to live out your childhood fantasies of slow motion shoot outs and action scenes!
Hi I love my original quest. modded it to the frankenquest. yet to use my quest link cable. and use my PC to have more fun. not used it while stoned. but i will. my son in law has the HTC VIVE. but the quest gives you more freedom. imho. best wishes Gaz
The only VR headset I've tried is The Oculus Quest 1. I thought it was really cool tbh however I didn't think the technology was quite there yet, the screens seemed a bit low res to me and it felt like the refresh rate needed to be upped. Which maybe there have been upgrades to the new models but Imma hold on till they got 8K screens in each eye, now that would be next level immersion ;) Also the oculus quest is without a doubt the most uncomfortable thing I've ever had on my face... seriously it's pretty awful lol

48H of bitcoin tanking
to god's ear my son
i've got a mate who actually called the top (he's the reason i was making so many threads about not being able to move my money this time last month) and he reckons we've reached a bottom now. Even the things he was telling me to look out for beforehand I have seen such as the capitualtion wick down to low 30ks. Now hopefully bitcoin goes back towards 50k
Investors must be absolutely shitting themselves now.
Can't imagine what it's like for the sellers on here who have money sat in escrow tho :(
I know nothing about it but heard a story a couple of weeks a go that some big players had all predicted the end of bitcoin was on the way so wouldn't bet on this sink being over yet.... could be good for buying btc if goes down to more reasonable level.

Can the environment be enough to kill the golden goose??
This could well be the beginning of the end for Crypto, it’s been a bubble waiting to burst and that bubble may well now have burst. As zz87 says below, I feel really bad for all the vendors with Crypto stuck in escrow as they are going to have taken a mega hit, potentially a completely screw you over kinda hit.
I don't think you can 'end crypto'.
If you look at some of the newer crypto and how are they build you will start looking at BTC and ETH as more of prototypes than the actual currency.
I don't think regulators can keep up with technology. Remember - the point of crypto is to replace government controlled currency, it newer was about quick gains and 'one solution we have to stick with'. At some point you just won't need FIAT currencies to survive.

I been trying to wack a few quid extra in for vendors etc and whoever's looking after funds should be moving it around especially if their experienced enough I been riding the rollercoaster of crypto for a few yrs I think their trying to sink it BTC was created and people where told a few yrs back it's to cripple the economy but China couldn't let it ride the full course hence their trying to get every pennie back from it's citizens but if it stabilises then all the cheap BTC coming out of China should be a great asset it's not like their government won't try sell it next door cough cough Russia IMO but it could go alot of ways
Bottom line is some very rich people want a piece of the action. They resent the fact that this is a new technology they don’t control of have the hang of.
So they’ll try to destabilise the market under the auspices of ‘regulation’ ‘crime’ ‘customer access and consumer protection’’ and all the other bullshit excuses they can come up with to get their slice.
So there will be more dips and peaks forced by traders to try to liquidate their clients assets, the tech will not go away! It’s here to stay and in time there will be customer terminals and pay options for retail. It’s inevitable. I think BTC will robustly recover and be back up way above today’s levels by the end of the year.
Long term three year very healthy gains will be made ultimately. I hope that by 2024 we could see very large gain on investments.
Hold your nerve, diversify (freecoin, Shiba coin etc) and don’t let the Uber rich arseholes make a fortune from your assets!!! :)

Also- twats like Musk are just glorified government contractors. Dodgy ones at that! Yes he’s a bit clever, but not that much and he’s also an arsehole.
He tried to play the market and the market told him to fuck off. :)
Another tip is to invest in gold and silver. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.
Metals are a good physical product while cash is ultimately worth jack shit if things go wrong!
This is all my opinion and not financial advice though.

Agree with Tommy . We've seen this before, players pushing price down to get cheap BTC.
To them morons who saying BTC will go to zero and end of crypto, put the pipe (joint) down and educate yourself ffs. !

It’s ends when people educate themselves about the differences of investment, speculation and outright gambling
Potentially at 0 because bitcoin is just an idea with no actual underlying value such as assets, future profits or current dividends. It’s just all hype, a who is the greater fool trading. Bitcoin is not an investment. Some will get rich but most will be left holding the ball with piss running down their trouser legs

This is a site that facilitates the purchase of often home made and highly manipulated illegal drugs from around the world that we can’t wait to smoke, vape, eat, dab etc without a second thought as to the conditions in which they have been handled, the actual ingredients or perhaps whose bumhole they have been up whilst at the same time some use it to argue that we mustn’t put anything foreign in to our bodies if it’s in the form of a vaccine as we simply don’t know enough about it.
Anybody else see the irony here??...(insert report on cannabis induced paranoia?)...

class discrimination kills society
the lower class was rallied against the immigrant class.
class discrimination kills society
and every fucking class plays it. it won brexit. even if its a valid way to sort people initially it is a societal cancer once people are born into it. do the fucking math england.
Go on then, how did class win Brexit?
The lower classes manipulated to vote for it?
Or the upper classes seeking to benefit from it by manipulating lower classes to vote for it?

3 packages intercepted
Bit of background..I don't live on the mainland anymore, small outcrop in the sea, just moved here for a new job which is live in. I was expecting 3 deliveries from 3 different vendors...too much at once perhaps?...my boss got a call this morning from the local sergeant asking if I was there and if so, could I go up the police station..which I did knowing full well what this was about, the copper said to me before ushering me into a room,..you are not being charged....here we go, took a seat and he produced 3 packages, oz of thai, half of shake & 1 distillate cart, all addressed to me, all my weed. Yeah man, that's my medication, I'm not selling it or giving it away, it's for my personal use only. Don't matter buddy, it's illegal, I'm going to issue you with police notice. The notice says that this incident has been recorded locally on the Operation light leaf database. Here's the rub...it was the 14g of shake that alerted them it was stinking, the thai & cart weren't going raise any eyebrows they'd just marked my card & got lucky. Anyway, have any other biggaz had this or something similar happen? Will all my post be examined carefully? I've always kept a pretty low profile & avoided any interaction with the authorities, this has made me a little anxious. Appreciate your thoughts biggaz...
Hey Chef99,
Shit dude, sorry to hear that.
It doesn’t sound good!
Our advice would be to use a different address and name if possible, if not... maybe ask the vendor to use mega stealth.
We would be more than happy to accomodate that.
We hope you’re good! It can be nerve racking being called in by police... the worst seems to be over.
We are always here if you need a chat, let us know when your sample arrives also!
One Love

Lost in Blockchain
I don't how I done it, must've been too high. What happened was I withdrew/sent around £80 to another wallet for payment of weed. The seller never received the btc :( and after investigation I found it in a Trade Block and I've now heard it's lost and impossible to get back. Is this true?. I also had 30 million safemoon coins and they magically disappeared (from a completely different wallet so not connected to the lost Bitcoin) I know this guy is legit. I've got far too many wallets and I've clearly fckd up somewhere.
Am I screwed??? Overall lost 150 in the space of hours lol.
The Dude Abides ?

Leaving it here for future generations:
Never ever use QR code generator for BTC, just go to duckduckgo and type QR "your address" instead. Generators you find on Google will sooner or later try to generate image of different address to intercept the payment. Especially top results.
Also - BTC wallets are free, so scammers can have as many of them as they wish. Showing you wallet address similar to yours is easier than you think. Especially when a lot of wallets 'cuts out' the middle part to fit on the screen.
Stay safe, healthy, smart and baked!
Bless
PS: not sure if that's the case here, but as I said - maybe it helps someone else then.

How do I contact transaxe? I spoke to an advisor and the confirmed it's now lost. Apparently 20% of bitcoin are lost in Blockchains. I have the details so it's worth a shot.
Is there a link? It wasn't on LB though til those fees dramatically decrease lol

This ain't no dress rehearsal.
There are many reasons.
For one you're not as alone as you may think. Things can and will change, you just don't want to feel this way. Concentrate on what has gone well, not the negatives. We're very good at putting ourselves down. Emotions are not permanent, and situations can and will change. Again.. concentrate on the positives, nothing is set in stone and any mistakes made do not define who you are.
Hope you're in a better head space soon! Take care

Yes but it disturbs me to think of all the household accidents we can avoid. Lots of people slip in the shower, who do we still allow this?
Get rid of showers and we can also eliminate poisonous household cleaners which have gone unchecked for way too long.
But hygiene. A licensing program for all dangerous household items is the better solution. We can add knives, forks and any furniture light enough to be thrown.
I'm starting to like the sound of this, it's comforting me but if we can't see into people's houses can we really be sure about compliance? Remember, we are talking about people's lives here.
If everyone just committed suicide all at the same time… Sure that would be a bad day but there'd be no more death forever afterwards....Problem solved.
someone's not thinking of the environment, we need to think ahead to our legacy instead of trashing the planet even more.
bottom line we must choose surveillance of our thinking over further jeopardizing this planet.

Irish Orders
Hi folks
I'm just wondering if anyone is having problems with orders coming from UK to IRELAND , which DONT show up..No customs letter,No tracker sent to me even though its been asked for numerous times and can't update me on it...HAPPENED 3 times this year...

Yeah man, shits not coming through right now. Just got a love letter this morning for a 3.5... Best keep it local for a few weeks till things calm down in Athlone / Dublin.
Have not had a prob myself all my stuff landed apart from one which I dought was sent reading the reviews, who was the vendor if you don't mind me asking?
I have had about 7 customs letters to 2 addresses. The ones that do not show up and come up as delivered on the tracking are also customs as I have enquired about 2 and when I further investigated they have told me customs have taken these also. From my experience the plainer the package the better. Had another one seized on Monday. Depressing after waiting 2 weeks for the bitcoin fees to relax i nearly cried when i seen the customs tape on it. The wait goes on. How there is no Irish vendor on here is fucking ridiculous.
Happened me once, never moved from parcel hub. Also have a heard a few people in ROI getting seized. I haven't had any seized just disappeared so there's definitely a postal worker who knows the packages up there.
75% of orders getting seized at the moment to ROI, your items could have been taken by postal worker.either way ...stealth needs to be improved across the board!
Yeah, last two haven't showed up, disappeared. Not much point in ordering again at this stage.

Payment transfer times - Does it matter?
Hi,
Obviously big topic right now is BTC fees in paying vendors. I'm wondering - When making payment, the Transaxe page states that payment to be received within 30 minutes.
If it takes longer than 30 mins, does it matter? As in, will the order still be paid for and placed with the vendor or not?
I ask as I'm using Blockchain .com to send BTC payment, and on there I have 2 options for sending the funds "Regular" or "Priority"
I have always used Priority in order to make payment within 30 mins or less due to that Transaxe notice but now the BTC fees are insane doing that.
Literally last week I paid a £19 fee to buy 7g for about $120.... WTF.
The "regular sending" fee would have been about £5 but says it take at least 1 hour to reach the vendor.
Would be better if can use Regular but not sure what the implications are of taking 1+ hour to reach.
Anyone know more on this? Thanks

My experience is that due to high btc volatility the price can change whilst your payment is pending and will then show “part paid”. In my case the seller copped the strop and refused to send the order. I couldn’t top up the couple of quid because my wallet has a ridiculous minimum spend which is now over £100! If you are able to send small amounts all you will need to do is top up the difference, no harm done.
I should point out this has happened to me in UNDER the 30 minute allowance!
I should point out this has happened to me in UNDER the 30 minute allowance!
i use blockchain also and i always change the fee to a much lower amount (it gives a warning saying its too low) usually around the 10 mark lol
i paid out £200 the other day and only paid £1.30 in fees.
As of yet ive not had any issues with payment, longest its took is about 40min and usually its almost instant.
I also always try to do my shopping at night if possible

Mike Tyson Ranch Holiday!!
Tyson, 54, is believed to earn around £500,000-per-month through his business that offers premium marijuana strains, edibles and extracts, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.
'Iron Mike' is building a 418-acre weed-themed holiday resort he hopes will be home to a music festival to rival Coachella, as well as the world's longest lazy river.
And aside from a luxury hotel and the lure of 'glamping' tents, there will be a Tyson University on site that will aim to teach cannabis cultivation tips to wannabe farmers.
Any body want to go!!!??? I’m gonna pre order a ticket for sure!!!!

Respect to Iron Mike!! Pretty good for someone who was bankrupt and 23m in debt. Makes you wonder how much of it is him or others people wanting to use his name as branding. Either way , I’m sure he ain’t complaining;)
Yeah bro with all due respect to the youngest heavyweight champ of the world, don’t think he’s got the business acumen!!woulnt mind trying some of his strains, wouldnt mind trying a lot of these strains rappers and celebs develop.
Super Hans has Mike Tyson OG atm. Would love to buy some but got a bit over excited last year after finding this site. Think I will be ok til March or April;)
I’ve got some coming tommro but that is not his own strain it’s just named after him, super Hans is a nearly 100 percent indica hense the name ko Mike Tyson lo but his is own is called Tyson ranch toad or something? Dowt we will get any over here... jay z has his own strain at 30 percent thc on monogram website!! Actually it’s 34.9 percent thc the strongest strain on there!!!
The toad is stronger at 37% thc and 41% total cannabinoids;) I would definitely pick some of that up;) and not forgetting brownie scout, which is 37.5% thc
It's nice to see a convicted rapist like Mike Tyson turn his life around. Looking forward to the Cosby Kush in a few years; rumour has it that he's going to team up with Jared from Subway, although, the plan to only sell immature plants seems a little flawed.

Jacksullivan48 Nominated For Termination.
I have nominated this seller for termination, he has not shipped any goods since the 23rd of January, but he is still trading, he has marked everyone’s order sent, but nothing has arrived. Unfortunately I am not the only one in this boat, there’s about 15 or more of us trying to reach him with no luck, he has logged in everyday but not replied to anyone. This is unfortunately looking like a exit scam. Please have a look at the post aswell.
Thanks wukong13, I strongly second this motion also. My order went through and was marked sent on 25/1, but like everyone else I have received nothing and the seller is ignoring all correspondence even though they appear to be logging in regularly. There is no place here for vendors like this.
I couldn't agree more! No response to anyone's messages yet still on line everyday! This guy needs terminating! Let's hope escrow gets every one of us our money back.
Yes I couldn't agree more! No response to anyone's messages and still on line everyday! This guy needs terminating! Let's hope escrow get all of us our money back! Stay safe!!!
I too have been affected by this account. Supposedly sent on the 30th. Hopefully escrow can sort it all out.
I second this notion, I'm sure many others will too. The list of those affected is still growing. Thanks wukong13 for starting the topic, I was unsure of how to go about executing this myself

Depersonalisation
I was just interest to to see if anyone had an experience with depersonalisation with or without cannabis. If you don’t know what that is have a quick search “Depersonalisation in psychology”. Please feel free to share your experience and if you have managed it.
I've had these episodes since I was a kid. On or off weed as well as psychedelics. I might have even had felt them drunk but I can't remember :)
When I was a teen they were severe existential crises each time, I even called this "The Feeling" since it defied a name, like a scary villain that can't be mentioned. Went to the hospital with it once but I felt better in the waiting room.
The Feeling has never gone away yet after decades it's become a friend.
To be removed from your own skin, depersonalized, is also a really good thing. It's a real awareness and it points to consciousness of something other than your (default) self.
Once you are no longer afraid of it you will find nothing but wonder on the other side of your everyday sense of self. I know it feels scary and as alienating as hell but at least for my own situation those ghosts disappeared with a nice (green filtered) flashlight on them.

"Depersonalization refers to a feeling of unreality of one’s own self: “I feel not mine, altered, and detached.” Derealization refers to a feeling of unreality of the surrounding world: “I experience things and people around me like in a strange dream or in a surreal movie: unfamiliar, foreign, removed.”
Yes bigga, that's why I love weed.
Yes bigga, that's why I love weed.
Hi Plantrights,
As a child I experienced depersonalisation and panic attacks partly due to undiagnosed add and stress evperienced from an early age when parents were busy drinking and was left alone to develop ocd traits and rutinous thought patterns...not great :)
First time I tried cannabis was at the age of 24 and it threw me immediately into those emotions and found myself with abit of ptsd for a week or so.
After going through intensified periods whilst using the feeling of fear got smaller and smaller and 5 years later I’ve got the least amount of fear and anxiety I’ve had to date :)
I believe that cannabis can show you ‘the self’ to quote Jung :) And if it has some issues then they will be known!
Sativa vape carts over ritalin anyday thank you very much :)

I’m looking to do one that can make atleast £1000 a month in profit.
If anyone knows how to program it or the cheapest parts for the best results possible would be a great help.
Or if anyone does this if you wouldn’t mind sharing your exp if it’s worth doing or not.

I have this old dell optiplex 780 with an intel core duo windows 7. If I was to strip and program this to mine and add a single 8mb 580 to start with how much do you reckon roughly I would have in return every month? Just a cheap starter option.

LOCKDOWN #2
The last lockdown introduced littlebiggy to me. How do you think it will affect vendors this time round or if it gets worst? I'm really hoping that we'll always have littlebiggy available!
What do buyers and vendors think about this? I can't even imagine what i'd do if the country was dry and LB vendors too... Any ideas on what will happen to vendors if this continues?

Very interesting questions. I wouldn't worry. You've found this place.
Buyers and vendors opinions will differ as we both have different objectives. The UK wouldn't become dry, that's some crazy, paranoid cannabis conspiracy, don't belive them.
Vendors, like buyers come and go. What I'm guessing would incentivize them to stay would be fewer charges, as buyers we don't see the hurdles and costs when trying to withdraw and utilise the capital generated through product sales.
...... And a little more kindness and politeness on here. At the end of the day we just want to buy good weed at a reasonable price and have a pleasant experience.

I am sure they will weather the storm.... Canna has been around for millenia and vendors will be too. it's the post that becomes the problem, hopefully early next year a vaccine will be rolled out and we can all get back to normal. in the meantime. i suggest a bit of gardening or indoor cultivation ;)
I will be one of them bleating woolly sheeple in the queue. because i am an old bugger. wants to see his grandkids grow up. and hopefully pass on some knowledge. about life. and show them some love and kindness. i am too old to believe in conspiracy theories now. when your young you think you will live forever. but i thought getting old would take longer. and you realise one thing. and that's what you have to work out. be lucky Milfhunter. live long and prosper.
Just to let you know......conspiracy theory is a contradiction in terms.
Conspiracy Theory was created by the CIA in 1967 as a way to discredit anyone who dared to challenge the main narrative.

hahahah i used to think like you. i even believed ZEITGEIST. then one day .... i woke up. some people even think the matrix is real.
LISTEN !!! the ravages of time will kill us all... and then it will not matter. not to me..you.. anyone. Society needs to be controlled to maintain the status quo. it doesn't matter what you believe, you need structure and law to maintain an orderly society, we are creatures of habit, and yes most follow the rules blindly. if we didn't then anarchy reigns. and you wouldn't be sleeping nice and sound in your bed each night, with the remnants of a toke in the ashtray. or as in my case a vape. ;)
LISTEN.....“This is the most dangerous time in the history of man. The seriousness of this plot cannot be underestimated. It is not due to any threat of conventional war, and it is not due to any threat of nuclear decimation, it is based on the fact that this is a psychological war waged by psychopaths against all mankind, and it is being advanced by a small group of monsters that have taken control of the minds of the masses through long-term indoctrination and policies meant to breed dependency. Fear is the new weapon of mass destruction, not because it is legitimate, but because the people have lost all will to be free, have lost all ability to think, and seek shelter and comfort as a collective herd only capable of existence in a society that is based on totalitarian rule.”
totalitarianism....a form of government that attempts to assert total control over the lives of its people. It is characterised by strong central rule that attempts to control and direct all aspects of individual life through coercion and repression. It does not permit individual freedom. why did i vote to leave the EU ? to fight against exactly that. life will always be a struggle against tyranny. trouble is. there are not enough people prepared to stand against it. they're lives are too comfy. ever since the introduction of central heating. lmao
i love these little discussions. and NOT a profanity was used in the attempt to gain world peace. ;)
lockdown number 2 is a lot more lax than the first one, that and half the country was already in category 3 anyway. I don't see it making a huge difference.

mislead or lie to them and the pharmaceutical industry that make billions off sickness wants to cure them.

Mate nobody trusts any of those things but covid is still real, you can view the evidence for yourself you don't need to be told.
Anyway the future is absolutely fucked so to answer the original question of this topic.... do the same as always! stock up, get high and be ready to ride out whatever comes next.

Hey zz87................can you please point out to me on my posts when i`ve said it`s fake??
You haven't I know but all the comments of "wake the fuck up" and "the lockdown isn't about the virus" are, antagonistic?, at the least...
If you know covid is real then you know why people need to be sensible and you know something needs to be done to slow the spread as the hospitals simply cannot cope with another massive spike.
I agree with you 100% that the rich twats in charge are taking advantage of the situation but if we let that influence how we treat the covid situation then that just makes us as bad as them with people dying for our selfishness and it wont solve anything - we've already lost the class war, the fight back isn't going to happen during this covid outbreak.
Not here to lecture anyone or get into heavy debates, just wanted to give my take on what you said. Nothing but peace mate, stay high! :)

Agree with everything zz87’s laid down.
It’s the ‘sheep’ ‘sheeple’‘wake the fuck up’ comments that get on my tits, the politics and media are a separate discussion and the derogatory comments aren’t needed. You fucking tinfoil hat wearing prick, that kinda thing.

I find people using the term "sheeple" or even just "sheep" tend to be absolute sheep themselves without realizing it.

as i said you wake up as well. You are likely to get it at some stage and it will make you whinge like a stabbed seal and just lol at you going around trying to gather some self worth by assuming you are the only one that may have negative thoughts about the government.. Pfft. Everyone knows the govt dont give a fek. jesus. You must be very young if you are thinking this is some sort of revelation that you can preach to the masses to, just fakin lol.
Anyway back to topic. (possible postage delays due to covid)
Anyway back to topic. (possible postage delays due to covid)
You wake up before its too late. LISTEN. You are deluded . This is a thread about postage of goods, not aggressive posts to people telling them how to think, how do you know. Wrong thread mate.
The main issue will be how long it takes to get your post especially this time of year and everyone is doing most of their shopping online now.
I'm the same found little biggy thank god during first lockdown to find it's been around for years.
It's very convenient but prices are stupid high, I've since started growing my own, I've wanted to for years but never had the inclination.
I've heard reports of post going missing alot ATM, not so much from lb but in general.
Lockdowns will surly continue if the virus is spreading to help the NHS,
I only ever pay next day delivery for the best post results, some places are getting it a day late or later in the evening I think they are saying next days are by 6pm ATM, what with black Friday, Christmas, and a lockdown, everyone is buying online so it will put a strain on the postal system, I've found it to be very good from personal experience. If you're gonna pay £100 on a quarter of weed you may aswell pay for next day.
Anyway, ain't no way it's going dry more and more people are growing now, the vendors know there's a demand, I believe old smokers are picking up old habits and resorting to the bliss of a joint, and who's to blame them, I for one can't remember why I stopped, the current pandemic will have a great impact on the population mentally, we all need to switch off for me that's the weed man, I plan to smoke my way through it, gotta be the best way to fly

Hey All.
I recently ordered of B.C.A, my package has not been shipped and their page is restricted. I’m unable to message them also.
Is anyone else having these issues or unable to contact vendor?
Thanks.

If it puts your mind at ease, I put an order in and it took 9 days to be marked as sent. I know they’ve been having some issues but the guys kept me informed the whole way through. It showed up on Monday just past (21/9/20). I’d say just sit tight and it’ll show up these fellas are legit.
Hi 1620. Because it’s marked as not shipped. And also I believe the vendor had indicated they would message once shipped. Order was placed on Saturday.
Not calling B.C.A out here as I am new to them but simply trying to understand if others are unable to view their page and message them.

You were smart to post this, they need to be on their best behavior and you're making them accountable but be careful, they sit on orders to get them past the escrow period.

Give BCA a break?
Apprently BCA have been restricted for some reason, and i can only assume this is due to people asserting it is a scam. This is one of 2 things:
1) Orders taking longer to arrive than most vendors and people thinking they have been scammed. To this is say they state clearly it will take a little while to arrive. Be patient, its worth it. However given their reviews it doesnt seem many legit customers have had any issue which brings me to theory 2:
2) Other vendors are creating fake profiles to spread disinformation as they see BCA as a threat. To them i say if you want to compete stop ripping the arse out of the prices. Dont get me wrong the quality of all bud i have received from LB has been top end, however BCAs is probably the best i have had, and at the lowest prices. It drives a competitive market on here which some people don't want.
Also local UK vendors - you will still get business from people who need their weed ASAP, and from those who buy smaller bits (which is all alot of vendors sell), so once again i say GIVE BCA A BREAK!
Cheers team :)

Nice to see some vendor support. I've never purchased off you guys. But you've always been cool in the forum.
WOW !!!!! There must be some impatient motherfuckers on here !! If it’s coming from Canada, it’s not going to be delivered rapidly. I have waited over a week for NDD and 1st class before and that’s from the UK. If you want it rapidly, buy from UK.
In currently waiting for my order from B.C.A to drop i have no reason to think it's not coming or iv been scammed,
Where are all these topics from people that have been scammed I'm not seeing any! For all us that have used them we all know these guy are a pleasure to deal with,
What the fuck is going on here?

There were posts on their page, which appears to have now been restricted for some reason unknown to them or us. Think they have been accused of scamming and LB have restricted the page, hopefully only while they investigate, as any investigation will show this is a legit vendor.
Agreed 100% the vendors should step up for eachother this is LB society and very big playground for all of us, vendors and customers. Keeping real.
Disappointing to see.i messaged them to try set up a smaller order as I don't like ordering above 14g in one parcel due to Irish laws and customs.offered to order 28g for 2 separate parcels,gave them a choice of flower,hash or dust/shake and to pay in advance knowing that they don't give out a tracking number except to escrow and pay double for postage.they wouldn't do it.surely a scammer would have bit my hand off for my Bitcoin?was over a week ago before whatever happened !

What is your smoking song?
awesome tune
I'll put this one on here just to represent basically all of Sublime's songs and of course the original by Marley.
I'm also big into underground hip hop, and hip hop from the 90s/00. Saw you talking about bone thugs for example, my shit.

Oh man, have loved Sublime ever since I heard them, such a cool and unique band. Shame it ended so soon.
Awesome song this and the original.
Nas, BIG, Pac, Eazy, Cube, Rakim, Red & Meth, DMX (yikes now tough), Snoop, Wayne, Outkast - the list goes on man these dudes were all I heard growing up. Admittedly it has been a while since I've visited the decade, I'm about to take a trip back in time and get all nostalgic. Cheers. edit: can't forget Beasite Boys

I always find myself putting on one of three albums whenever I get some quality bud and have an hour or two to kill.
ATCQ - Low End Theory
Nas - Illmatic
Wu - 36 Chambers
For those times I'm not in a hip hop mood I tend to listen to some RHCP or The Doors or whatever I have on loop in my head for that day lol.

Why thank you, kind sir. I may be wrong but I'm sure Nas wrote and preformed that album at 19/20 which is just bananas to say the least. Such lyricism and flow for such a young man. "Rappers I'm monley flippin with the funky rythm I be kickin,
Musician, inflictin' composition, of pain
I'm like Scarface sniffin' cocaine
Holdin' a M16, see with the pen I'm extreme" first lines are maaaaaad lol

It is crazy, to be thinking so critically at that age while delivering a strong message wrapped up in smart word play, bars and insane flow. Some people just have raw talent man.
Illmatic = Hip Hop
If aliens landed and asked me what Hip Hop was, I would play them this album.
Then they would know...

Don't have a go to song exactly, depends on the mood. Would say hip hop like Gu, J-Cole, Tribe, Pharcyde, few others. Also love some Thin Lizzy, Rory Gallagher, Black Sabboth, Led Zeplin. Also love some Vaya Con Dias.....these are just off the top of the head, so many more.
I really came here to comment as I can see hip hop, rock, blues, folk all down through the list and am planning on working my way through it but don't have the time right now.

My man, I really like this :) Thanks for the contribution, I actually didn't know I knew of Air till I heard Sexy Boy playing. Also, this sounds like a great album to take you through a LSD trip, I think I'll find out.
Of course, love the spread of music, thanks for starting this topic. Already headbanging to a few artists found.
A lot of people actually know their songs pretty well, but don't know them. Haha, that's what I like to hear. I have never done tripping but would definitely contribute to the overall mood/vibes. One of my favourite underappreciated albums....of course just in my opinion

Top band mate, went to see them last year in Manchester unreal, probably best gig I saw all year, smoked a few joints just before they came on was a different experience
Oh man, blast from the past right there. Love this band! So chill and bass heavy. These guys did some awesome live shows with Iration Steppas back in the day. Nice shout, man.
Big tune. The little pockets of flows he jumps in and out of while delivering a potent message.. mad.
Any song from the hillside airstrip album by 10 ft ganja plant

not seen that film, looks up my street for sure. But yes it has the same 80's/Cyberpunk feel. I whack the ファニーデス (Love Letter to Japan) album on while smoking and just get lost in it completely.
Yeah this group is so important, continually pushing boundaries. The entire project is fascinating.
haha I actually remember all his old stuff... some stuff was pretty decent. mostly shite though lol
I agree, most of the stuff he did under Chipmunk is mega corny nowadays, probably back then too hahah. I rate his diss tracks though he brought some life back to the scene in those days.
Positive vibes from this one.

How Can the Stock Market Go Up When So Many People Are Unemployed?
Well put jarjar and where there is a disconnect there is an arbitrage. I think we are looking at the biggest short in history. The markets can't stay …
The stock market is not the economy. The equity market is being supported from all angles, be it historically low Interest rates, meagre bond yields, central bank intervention like wells said, Even just a disconnect from fundamentals. Also worth bearing in mind that 5 big tech names make up nearly 20% of the SP500, which have performed incredibly during the pandemic.
Well put jarjar and where there is a disconnect there is an arbitrage. I think we are looking at the biggest short in history. The markets can't stay disconnected from reality forever.
I share this belief, but they can stay disconnected for longer than we think. The perfect trade if improperly timed can lead to ruin, even if all the other stars align. But truthfully, irrational exuberance and over speculation lead to one thing, and this pack is nearly out of aces ?
It's the same as any market, if there is enough buying prices go up. In this case most of the buying is from government central banks. They can print money and buy stocks to keep stock prices up. This buys some time for an economy on hold.
The Unemployment rate has absolutely 0 correlation with the global stock market . Some stocks prices are extremely low, and some are rallying beyond historical data (as it does). Overall, yes the S&p 500 and FTSE 100 are doing very well under the circumstances, and this is due to big banks providing liquidity to brokerage houses for retail and institutional traders to open positions, and by the looks of it traders are doing well (hence a good outlook for the stock market). Back to your point, the unemployment rate strictly affects currency growth in the country it relates to e.g if UK's unemployment rate dropped by 2% yoy then we would see a decline in the GBP/USD etc etc...hope that makes sense to you.
Because all of this is made up and capitalism constantly needs justifications for its own existence, which is why stock market information appears to matter on mainstream news outlets.
A lot of those unemployed people are day trading stocks and this contributes directly to the effect you see.
have you heard of the paradise papers...... a portfolio of business that will do very well when people are forced into debt! investers(rich f@#kers) include people like the queen, prince charles(soon to be king, which is why the family have been trimming all the fat so he can start a fresh!), tony blair, gordon brown, you see where this is going.

Heres a thought.....the last person to try to take down the federal reserve...JFK and we all know what happened there

These all seem like good explanations but I have a question:
Has this situation happened before and what was the aftermath?
Has this situation happened before and what was the aftermath?
Has there been a global pandemic before? Yes. What was the aftermath? Depending on what point in history you wish to reference, would always yield a different answer. What strikes me is not the situation, but the environment in which it happens. A situation may have happened before but the environment may permit a much different outcome. Is this a health crisis or an economic one? Historically, how do we approach them individually? And more importantly, what are the risks in mistaking one for the other?

The wall algo reads message response times: radar breeder
I think when you get unresponsive as a seller you are completely taken down.
It is really easy to measure message response time and % of messages without replies, this seems a great way to stop many kinds of fires (like fraud) from spreading.
I see today that a very popular seller has disappeared from the wall. From experience I know this seller is legit but they are not responsive. To me this seems like a great move by the wall even if the seller isn't exiting they are clearly overwhelmed and can use a little time out.

If so, I wonder how an item like "Lhuillier Wedding Gown" (no offence or disrespect to the item or the seller of course) is shown on the wall, even though on it's bottom, and the last review it got was 1275 days ago. while recent items aren't advertised. oh you wondery wonder wall...

JeanBean
Question: Order Addresses
Why is it that some vendors have the "use pgp" option on orders and other don't (you have to put address in clear text into order and is listed in clear text in order history). Seems pgp would be a better option all the time. Thoughts? If a vendor doesn't have the pgp option would that stop you from ordering from them?

Just being paranoid but isn't there a security issue for me if I upload a pic pf weed I bought here?
No, any meta information (potentially identifying your camera or gps location) is scrubbed when you upload any image to little biggy. This goes for profile images, attachments, and review photos. Don't take my word for it though, download any image on the site and see for yourself, there are many sites online that will extract meta data from an image.

How odd it looks the opposite to me, I dont know about quality but the people iv found selling in the UK on here are way cheaper than the US based ones!
Found a lot of the overseas sellers to have decent rates to be fair...some are pricer than others but I prefer to pay a little bit extra to ensure quality

1 Weed is good at the end of the moda trip, an indica is very soothing, when i don't feel like getting trippy I'll use a CBD strain.
2 It's not the same natural feel of cannabis but there really isn't anything I would call toxic at all.
3 Yes

Well put sir I would add that a little sativa actually works well with moda for me but I don't want to get too manic or unfocused so I am pretty conservative, like 1 hit is plenty.

Trust in Government Is Collapsing Around the World (atlantic.com)
"People trust their peers much more than they trust their political leaders or news organizations."
This is exactly the story, governments create fear and make themselves indispensable. You are so duped my friend.
Would your buddies be making a nuclear arsenal, would anybody? It is taking both the madness and the resources to do this, who can that describe? A James Bond Villain?
No, l wouldn’t give them to your buddies either. It sounds like you swear by cnn and msnbc for all your information needs.

1 There is no escrow protection, if the seller bails or simply doesn't send the order you are done.
2 There are no reviews on messengers, so no consequences when a seller fucks up/over.
3 You don't get to build up your own reputation on the transaction since the order is not part of little biggy.
4 The little biggy community is undermined when people use it for advertising their own unsecured businesses. I appreciate having a place like this and if I can support it I do.
5 This type of behavior has a much higher correlation with fraudsters and security problems for buyer and sellers.

Why feel the need to post on my page? A new user who speaks of little biggy as if he's been here since the beginning, I'm sorry but I highly doubt this post is to assure anyone or to help, it was posted deliberately. I find it highly amusing that people like this try to discourage sales and try to undermine highly recommend vendors such as myself and a few others on here, I fear not.
I will also change how my sales work on biggy, as the system here seems to be corrupt, I'm going to only accept orders from people with at least 2 buys as to ensure I don't get bad feedback by most probably other vendors " in for the kill " or for those looking to just try and drag us down with false reviews, I have seen this with Daveyboy and a few others here. It's getting ridiculous, I say bring in the invitation only by referral codes. At least we can control to some degree.

That's not a smart move, if you were having bad actors buying your stuff to review you it would show up in reviews not posts. That clearly is not happening. And of course if they did want to do that it wouldn't be hard to get 2 sales to get past such a policy anyway.

What's so wrong about the current inequality?
Let the bastards have it if thats what they want to do with their lives.
What's so wrong about the current inequality?
Not much, really. Anyway you look at it human lives are equalizing with little regard to income, let's start with appearances:
In old human times the richest person was fatter because he could eat more. Today advanced poor people are the fattest on earth because food has become so plentiful. The healthiest eaters are the rural poor and the urban rich, both eating organically.
As far as covering their fat with clothing, disparities have also dissipated. A couple of centuries ago even colored clothing was a luxury as dyes were a semi exotic luxury. The richest people would wear elaborate gowns and the poor people colorless rags as even basics like cotton were a big expense. Today everyone from the poorest village in africa to the most exclusive spot on the Riviera wears jeans. The richest enjoy a slight difference in fabric and a different name sewn on the pocket.
Leisure time use to be province of the rich, today they work more hours than the middle or lower income classes. And what of their time off? Travel used to be exclusively for the rich, most never left their town, now most people on earth can afford to reach nearly every spot on it. But this matters less as nearly everyone spends their time looking at screens and the rich have no advantages over billions of ordinary people.
It's a basic fact of math: if the poorest person's income is bound by zero and the richest's by infinity things should naturally spread out over time, it's not an inherently bad thing but rather a reflection of a world progressing. As this happens living standards also increase and technology rolls out advances to more people faster, so fast and so ubiquitous that the rich have lessening practical advantage from their wealth even as it grows further from average incomes.

A lot of exclusive and expensive stuff became affordable for everyone. Through scientific research new technologies and materials were developed and more and more got automated. Mass manufacturing/creation became the norm.
European countries had deep pockets full of cash and hardly any debt through their colonies in Africa etc.... It was a golden age. In post colonial times various International conflicts (Afghanistan war / Oil Crisises / Vietnam) gave the global economy a huge blow.
Meanwhile Nixon decided that USD value was no longer backed up by a national gold supply but through the GDP which was adopted by other countries later on.
Global debt exploded from then on and multiple economical crisises followed which were solved by manipulating the monetary system so that whatever insolvency or budgetary problem was fixed by printing more (no longer backed) money.
That story ended in 2008 as the financial institutions that fractionally stores your holdings, became that greedy and reckless that several went bankrupt or needed government funding to survive (though nationalisation of their debt). Every citizen became holder of debt and those responsible for the mess from trader to executive management got away with it and received huge bonuses.
I always compare the current situation with the feudal era that ended in 1789 with the French Revolution. Royalty and such were awarded with leadership that was transferred onto them by their ancestors. Royalty, in a historical perspective, originated from tyrants and warmongers that suppressed, even tortured their citizens or used them as slaves through religious justification by the Roman Church. People were uneducated and feared Clerics.
The whole bunch united themselves and even attempted to maintain there genes by inbreeding. Till that inbreeding caused that much degeneration that fresh genes were needed.
After the French Revolution some dire times followed but the industrial revolution gave them an opportunity to adapt to the changing society. Royalty found new partners in a growing number of rich industrials which were given Royal titles. Large monopolistic and nationalised companies emerged that provided services to citizens. Railway, Weapons, Utilities, Communication, Radio and TV to name a few.
These government corporations provided a lot of jobs which were well paid and provided several advantages over regular jobs in private companies. But politicians like happy voters and althou

I think its more like the early 20th century. A golden age just behind us, exploiters taking command of new communications technology, stirring emotions for wicked gains. Don't think it stops anytime soon, A.I. already shows great talent for this.
I think this is a good theory, there might even be kind of a Moore's law at work where technology advances drive equality. Self driving cars come to mind.
Maybe equality in lifestyle as the OP is saying but if anything it seems to accelerate inequality in wealth accumulation. The logical end of this is a world of robot servants doing everything for people but owned by a small elite.
All economic classes are at least ABLE to accumulate wealth as never before in history. The disparity arises from good things, not bad. The wealth/income gap GROWS in a healthy economy (talking about the U.S. here, so don't argue that some other country doesn't have opportunity). The reason the gap grows is because there's no upper limit, and the lower limit stays virtually at subsistence level. People at the top aren't going to stop working and earning simply because those of us at the lower limits decide that we're happy with less. Anyone who argues that the gap is a bad thing doesn't know diddly about economics (or has a socialist-type agenda that they're pushing).
