420 Magazine Website News: October 2017

420

Founder
Welcome to our October update. It's designed to give you a bit more insight into what's been going on at 420 Magazine over the last few weeks. Now we are past the Autumn equinox, in this season of mists and mellow fruitfulness, we hope that out there all you growers are in a good place, that mites are at a minimum and, thinking of you Northern Hemisphere outdoor growers, that you are bug-less and rot-less as you approach harvest.

Our team of Moderators have been busy as ever. Could we please remind all members about a particular point in our Posting Guidelines. 420 Magazine is not a marketplace, and any discussion of giving, donating, trading or selling any article at all is not permitted. We do appreciate the 420 Magazine spirit when members offer to contribute to the grow supplies of others, however the only item we encourage the exchange of is knowledge. Sorry, however we cannot allow our mission to be distracted by becoming a 420 trading site. Thank you for your understanding.

Thanks to those members who report spambots, spam and other infractions. You are a great help to our busy team. To help both you and ourselves, there's a new 420 Guidelines FAQ. So whether you're a new or experienced spambot spotter, please check it out - Questions & Answers - How To Deal With Spambots

Welcome to visitors and new members alike. Thank you for being part of Our Mission.

If you are a fresh face here, please do take a moment and read our Posting Guidelines. They are there to help and protect you and to keep 420 Magazine full of the spirit of knowledge-sharing, friendship and good vibes that we all work so hard to preserve.

We always say that we wouldn't be here without our Sponsors. However it's equally true that 420 Magazine wouldn't be such a great mission without you, our members. We are always grateful for your presence, contributions & positive energy. :love:

New Members For Our Spambot Patrol
Many thanks to the many members who have responded to our appeal for more support for our Spambot Patrol team. We are currently going through all the applications. We truly appreciate your volunteering spirit and support for our mission and we'll be in touch with the candidates within the next couple of weeks.

Tech Updates
Also on the subject of those pesky spambots, we are continually trialling new software and add-ons to stop them before they start. Without going into details - for obvious reasons - we plugged in a new function a couple of weeks ago. Sorry! For just 15 minutes, it stopped not just spambots but also regular members from posting. Apologies for trying to make an omelette and therefore breaking a few eggs. We continue to combat the spambots on the tech side as well as out front.

If you spot any potential bugs or problems, please do report them to our team, either by using the report button at the bottom of every post, dropping any Moderator a Private Message or by sending an email to support@420magazine.com.

We are getting a number of reports concerning problems with the 420 Magazine app not updating notifications. We are not only aware of this, but working on it with our platform provider. We do understand that it's frustrating, and we'll have it fixed as soon as we can. Thank you for your patience.
