So I got rid of the snails with garlic and I now have aphids instead. They don't seem to mind garlic or soapy water. Have tried numerous things and had limited success with very strong nettle tea. But it's getting to be a hassle brewing a huge vat of nettle tea to pour over the plants once or twice a day.

Am considering ordering some ladybirds online, any reason I should not do this? Also, how I do I stop them fucking off to the neighbours instead of staying with me and eating my aphids? Will the nettle tea and remnants of garlic deter the ladybirds?

I agree with the power users thing. But it's not really power users. It's been 12 of us for a year so we all got pretty close. I can see how that would look to me users though. How do you propose we deal with it

Idgaf ive proven my point. I can play nice. I was posting through my huge backlog of videos to get my name out there. So... im done with that. I might post my new work from time to time. Maybe now that im not "spamming" it will be okay

We need a clear definition of spam to. Then hold everyone to the rules

I honestly think the only problem is NEW being filled with the junk posts of 3 ish users spamming 10 things each over a couple hours

An interesting idea would be the front page of new only showing a single post from each user. No one user allowed more than one post on the "front page " of new. Im guessing most people browse by new here right now
