Hello everyone and welcome to our January Members Update. We wish you all a happy and peaceful New Year.
This monthly post is to keep you informed about what’s been going on behind the scenes at 420 Magazine during the last few weeks, introducing you to our valued new and renewing sponsors and highlighting our monthly contest winners.
Firstly, “Welcome!” to all our new members. You have joined the friendliest, most mature and comprehensive Cannabis and Hemp website in the world. In return we’d simply ask that you spend a few moments reading our Posting Guidelines. It helps us no end if you can stick to these: it reduces the time we need to spend moderating and advising, allowing us the space to continue maintaining, developing and adding to the website itself.
We’ve also added a handy shortlist of links which answer the most common “how to” questions about posting and to help you get the most out of 420 Magazine. Helpful Links For New Members
And why not post a little bit about yourself in our Introduce Yourself thread? It’s a great way to start conversations and get initial guidance.
As we do every month, we’d like to extend our special thanks to those members who take the time and trouble to voluntarily welcome members who introduce themselves. They show and share great 420 Magazine positive vibes. Many of you also help us by reporting spam and other infractions, which is much appreciated as we cannot be everywhere. Your support does not go unnoticed. Thank you all!
We would also like to thank those members who take a moment to report the spammers and spambots, trying to take advantage of 420 Magazine’s reach at the expense of our paying sponsors and our members. It’s a great help to our busy team when you see and report such activity. Just remember – one report per spammer please. Multiple reports on multiple posts from the same spammer from the same member actually increase our workload in the back. We can quickly find everything we need from a single report.
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 and spirit of helping others.
420 Magazine Job Opportunities
We are actively looking for a volunteer to help us out with the Grow Journals. The successful candidate will review completed Grow Journals for infractions, report any problems and move them to Abandoned or Completed. You will be fully trained by and work alongside Teddy Edwards. We will need to ask for a few hours a day of your time to help us work through the back-log that our small team have to deal with.
You will need to have an established and (serious) violation-free posting history here on 420 Magazine. If interested in supporting our mission, please send send your resume and a cover letter to humanresources@420magazine.com
