definitely agree with the being able to tell if someone is full of shit by the way they type. anyone who doesn't posses this skill should be very careful about the grow advice they just 'accept'
plus, if you truly know a lot about growing, it's obvious when someone is spouting bullshit. and others will call them out on it.
that's for DAMN sure. all my rep came from stupid bullshit, all the stuff I thought was rep worthy didn't get rep at all. so rep and post number definitely don't matter.
