First off, let me start by congratulating Marijuana Reviews member Vaporizer for being the 1st member to have 10 original reviews posted. He will soon be receiving a custom Marijuana Reviews "Editor" hooded sweatshirt. I am slacking a bit with getting the hoodies made so I don’t have a picture to post yet. Hopefully Vaporizer will write a review of his when he gets it including some pics. Hell, I don’t even own one yet!
Vaporizer’s reviews and pictures are always top notch. I enjoy reading them probably just as much as everyone else and am looking forward to many more. I have a feeling before long I’ll be sending him an ipod in the color of his choice.
There are a handful of other members that have really helped out so far with reviews of their own and a couple in particular, dsmor180 and trikky that have already hit "Editor" status (Their bio’s are coming soon) and will no doubt be receiving a sweatshirt of their own before long. If you are reading this and have a nug or a bong handy, snap some pics and write up a review. Like I always say, it does not have to be professional as long as it’s honest and accurate.
MarijuanaReviews.com was an idea I came up with a few years back. Unfortunately, until recently I did not have a medial marijuana recommendation and really could not be 100% sure that the bud I get from my private dealers was/is what they say it is. And to be honest, I am not 100% sure now that the bud I get from the dispensaries and coffee shops is actually the strain that it’s named. But I am A LOT more confident in the shops than dealers.
Without being able to identify the buds I review by name, I had no way of knowing what I was actually reviewing. That fact alone made it pretty "un-fun" for me. Since Marijuana Reviews is 100% ad-free and I make $0, it better be fun or what’s the use? So when I got my medical marijuana recommendation for the constant pain I am in due to a serious back surgery 2 years ago, I decided to launch the site.
I really had no idea how quickly people would start sending in reviews and participating as a community to an extent by reading and commenting on all the posts. Now that I realize how much people are into what we are doing here, I think it’s already time for some changes. I have an in-house web designer that I use for all my projects. He is ready to get started on Marijuana Reviews version 2.0 as soon as I give him the word. V2 as I am calling it will be similar to the current version in that it will be designed as a review site/blog. I will be using a few new plugins available for the script I use to run the site to make it a little more user friendly when it comes to members being able to interact with each other.
So this is what I need from you all. If there is something you’d like to see added to Marijuana Reviews, or have an idea about how an existing feature could be better, I want to hear it. Please use the contact form to shoot me a message, or comment on this post. Please be as detailed and as honest as you can, I can take it. If your idea is something that makes sense, I will definitely implement it and give you full credit. (Woo-Hoo!
)
Finally, if you consider yourself and expert in a certain area hit me up. I recently added Grasscity.com Recreational Use Forum moderator trikky as the Marijuana Reviews resident glass expert and would love to add some more experts to the team. And by expert I mean expert. Don’t shoot me a message saying "Hey Chubbs, I love weed. Can I be an expert?" NO! It’s nothing personal, I am just trying to put together a team of true experts. The more they know, the more they can help and inform. I don’t have much to offer now as far as compensation but trust me, you’ll thank me in the long run should you choose to help out.
That’s about it for now. Today has been a crazy day so I think after I post this I am going to call it a night. As much as I’d like to get a few more reviews up, my bong and some dinner sound better. –Chubbs




This site is amazing.
I really enjoy coming here and seeing all the reviews.
Congrats to Vap for getting 10 reviews. Nice work.
I hope to see many more reviews in the future.
Chubbs, this is an awesome site. Keep up the good work.
Sweet! I have to thank Chubbs for welcoming my reviews with open arms … I’m honored just to be able to contribute to such an amazing site. I will most definitely keep the reviews coming (I have a library of reviews in my vault) So stay tuned.
And I will certainly review my Hooded Sweatshirt as soon as I receive it =)
Thanks again.
Two-One: Thanks. I plan on making it more of a community over the next 2-3 months. Should be fun.
Vaporizer: The reviews are definitely appreciated. Maybe you can send in a review of the vaporizer you use.
