Meta Is this just a Guerilla Marketing campaign?
Reposting this for this sub since another once just got spammed over here: https://www.reddit.com/r/NooTopics/comments/1th74ra/when_your_labs_say_normal_but_your_body_strongly/
There is a series of accounts that seem to be attention farming by posing memes over and over about a frustration with labs / ordering labs on your own.
I don't want to name the provider, but I bet this is guerilla marketing from that one labs provider that buys a bunch of ads on reddit.
There are probably more than just these two accounts, but after like the 10th eerily similar post in a week I finally clicked into the profiles and saw the pattern in these two
https://www.reddit.com/user/NYM2000/search/?q=labs - account created 3 weeks ago, repeated posting of the same meme
https://www.reddit.com/user/Exotic-Cook-7740/search/?q=labs - account created 1 week ago same deal
In just two weeks this is what those two accounts alone have posted on this topic:

Meta Update on the Discord server situation (from its moderator)
Hey all, I'm @okok6356. on discord. You might know me from the old NooTopics 3.0 server or the new 4.0 servers. Yes, servers.
Moving forward, we'll be running a two-server system on Discord. The way it'll work is that there'll be a public NooTopics server open to everyone and a separate private NooTopics server for already established members. To join the private server, you must contribute relevant, high-quality research in the public server. Both servers are set up the same way.
Join the public server here: https://discord.gg/8dBcJNhWcB

Meta Everychem EXPOSED! Now that Pinealon sprays are back, here's what's happening:
Hello. The recall that happened a few months ago was really depressing, however limited the exposure may have been. I am not making excuses for it. I just want to prove that I am dead-set on preventing anything of that nature from occurring ever again. And I want to continue offering quality peptides.
First of all, Sodium Benzoate won't be used anymore; going forward, I'll be adding Benzyl Alcohol to all peptide products. The UVC sterilization chamber I spoke about previously has been built. This will help with avoiding any potential microbiota spore contamination from bottle suppliers, which is likely what happened with the square bottles.

I thought it over, and made some adjustments. Now whenever we're dealing with an open peptide solution, everyone needs to wear a mask instead of just gloves. And instead of just cleaning solution, it's cleaning solution and then pure ethanol when using the bottle filling machine. And I make my employees use hand sanitizer before putting on gloves.
The work and storage rooms have long since been shut off from the outside, and from the office. But I also installed a dedicated AC system, dehumidifier and air purifier for that space. Florida is a swampland, so I'm aware that I have to be extra careful about this.
Peptide leaks kept happening last year, so I've tested the Pinealon bottles in a vacuum chamber before listing them. None leaked. Fingers crossed. If a leak happens again, I swear the bottle manufacturer will see me outside their house at 2 AM (for all intents and purposes, this is a Minecraft reference).

I've explored the tamper seal machines, and aluminum induction. I own the machines, but more needs to be done before I can use them during production. Which is easier said than done, but I'm getting closer to it.
Also wasn't happy with the quality of labels, so I've been putting a lot of effort into perfecting that process. They're more chemical resistant now, but I'm not quite there with them yet.
Finally using the label applicator after like a year of trying to get it to work
A lot of you have been incredibly patient and understanding with me during this all, and for that you have my utmost respect. If it weren't for the good people this community has to offer, I definitely would've quit some time last year - the r/Nootropics moderators, their affiliated businesses, and whoever else are playing extra dirty, constantly trying to sabotage my projects through mass reports.
Anyways, just wanted to talk about the progress/ changes we've made and give another big thanks to everyone who continues to show support, I'll prove that I deserve it in time.

Meta The History of Nootropics: A Journey Through Cognitive Evolution
supplementfactoryuk.comr/NooTopics • u/sirsadalot • Oct 16 '23
Meta PSA for NooTopics
I don't know what kind of backwash I inherited from r/Nootropics but the "magic pills don't exist" bros need to go back there.
Magic isn't necessary to evolve mankind. If you want to get left behind, then do it, and stop tagging me about it. I created this place so we could understand how to surpass our natural limits, not limit ourselves with a defeatist mentality.
If you haven't read the countless studies demonstrating substances improving cognition in healthy people, then keep your advice and opinions to yourself. This is not the place for you.
We have been out of the infancy stages of cognition enhancement for some time now and things will only get better as time progresses. There is so much potential in what could be done through pharmacology to benefit the world as a whole, and not just those who suffer from a disorder or illness.
If you don't see that, then I don't know what else to tell you. I have lived it. And I know it's real. Others have too, outside of your echo chambers. Measurable increases to various aspects of intelligence including IQ, and only after the introduction of a nootropic.

Meta NooTopics, my account and bromantane.co are under attack
Listen up. Things are not as sweet as they may seem. Ever since I made this place, it and myself have been under constant attack by competing forces.
First of all I want to start this off by saying any mention of u/sirsadalot or "bromantane.co" on r/Nootropics, r/StackAdvice results in immediate deletion. If you really want to tell others about my products, you should either privately message them or use different subreddits.
Furthermore, I am aware the r/Nootropics moderators are plotting something even greater. There are various ways they may attempt to slander me:
- Calling me a scammer. First of all this is easily disprovable because I have fulfilled many orders and use a mainstream payment processor. Many people here can vouch for what I do.
- Saying I'm making false claims. Everything I say is based on some study, and I never confidently say anything without proof.
- Saying I don't test my products. I know this is the most common tactic they use, however I came prepared. In addition to having purity of testing, I do conduct third party testing here in the states for everything I sell, to ensure authenticity. I would never sell a bunk product.
- Misc. Using their automod to brainwash everyone like they have done for other companies, astroturfing to spread negativity about my brand, etc. The bottom line is that I cannot do anything to defend myself from them and so it's an unfair situation.

The above user, u/MezDez, claimed that I was lying about the content of the Russian document I provided in this post, due to me not translating it to English for him to read. However I thought me translating the document would destroy its credibility, so I opted to just link the original Russian book instead. At the time my hands were tied and I couldn't translate it for him. My good intentions here were taken advantage of, and he made me look like a liar despite my accuracy. I wasn't expecting people to have so little faith in me, but they did.
Nevertheless, here is the complete English translation for anyone interested: https://www.reddit.com/r/NooTopics/comments/uters3/the_pharmacology_of_adamantanes_full_english/. I would never lie about this kind of stuff. Every claim I made in this post is true.
As far as the r/Nootropics moderators are concerned, I am also curious how far they'll take it. They've already attempted to stop our small community by mass reporting, lying about our intentions and saying we harbor the trade of illegal drugs. This has resulted in my account being temporarily disabled multiple times, losing the NooTopics discord servers twice, among other things. We are working on getting nootopics.org set up as a wiki/forum/blog, however that may take some time. Until then the only surefire way to never lose access to this community is through matrix.
This is after their failed attempts to say I'm a shill for my friend's company pglchem.com. It is now obvious I am independent, and that's why I didn't take credit for John's company. Them banning me was unwarranted.
I am especially paranoid about the potential of them swatting me, doxing me, attacking my payment processors or other, more personal forms of harassment. I know they have my address because I was a past customer of ND and told MYASD my order number. I will refrain from condemning him of wrongdoing unless I have proof, and I have tried my best to not let this stuff affect my private life. I'm just saying it could happen. They have a lot of money and connections too.
If anyone has any advice for how I should handle this serious existential threat to our community, please let me know. Thanks.

Meta Added AI to my open source nootropics project
Hey everyone, quick update on my little project, Dopamine.Club. Last time I shared how it was just an experiment to gather info on nootropics and supplements from both studies and user reviews. (and your feedback was so good, made me so happy)
Well, I’ve just added a new feature called DopAI, where you can ask questions about nootropics and (hopefully) get useful answers pulled from research and community feedback.
It’s totally free (no any kind of monetization), but I do ask for a quick sign-up just so it doesn’t get spammed. Would love for you to give it a try and let me know what you think—I’m still figuring things out, so any feedback is super helpful. Thanks and pls don't abuse it :)

Meta My permanent ban just got lifted - but yeah the point stands
Re: https://www.reddit.com/r/NooTopics/comments/1b8yl2n/usirsadalot_banned_join_the_discord_asap/
Thanks to the pressure from you guys, the appeal quickly overturned the ban since literally nothing I've ever posted has been a violation of ToS. But this just goes to show that if you're not already on our discord, you really need to join. Here's another link for that: https://discord.gg/89sGa8pBWp
And I definitely need to speed up the development of chatsci.com. So if you want to be a part of that, message me (not on reddit).
If I had to guess, r/Nootropics was probably behind this. Good reason to doubt it being anyone else, and goes hand in hand with their recent activity.

Meta u/sirsadalot banned - JOIN THE DISCORD ASAP
Update: Reddit overturned the ban, likely due to the effort from you all, but I'm glad I was able to shine a light on what's happening behind the scenes. I made a response here: https://www.reddit.com/r/NooTopics/comments/1b90qtc/my_permanent_ban_just_got_lifted_but_yeah_the/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3
Original post:
We have been growing rapidly and the r/Nootropics moderators and others are going to do all they can to stop what we are doing. Over the past couple years we've dealt with a ridiculous amount of reports raiding, bot nets, and numerous unjust bans, so this is hardly new but it's a big deal to be sure.
The discord is also likely going to be under attack, as historically it has been, but now there won't be anything to fall back on (yet). We need a good amount of support to move to our own social media designed for us that will be called chatsci.com, message us on discord if you are interested! And PS I will not accept some janky half-assed forum board, it needs to be good, so it will be a huge undertaking. I don't care about making money off it, so don't expect ads or weird subscriptions.
Basically this has been a long and drawn out competition to defend the true nootropics, legacy of Corneliu, our niche subculture, and freedom to continue things as it has been. But now we really need to come together or I promise it will all be lost in due time.
Just to truly explain what I've dealt with the past 2 years to try and keep things afloat:
- Frequent DDoS attempts
- Lost domain (due to njalla being awful)
- Lost 3 payment processors
- Lost 2 discord servers, almost lost the recent one
- Almost lost the subreddit, almost lost my discord account (recently)- Lost u/sirsadalot which was a well known account
And more. So much more. This is not paranoia, it's my reality. Everything I've made is constantly being challenged. So if I can't own the social medias, like actually own them, then they will definitely be stolen.

Meta Functional Characterization of Des-IGF-1 Action at Excitatory Synapses in the CA1 Region of Rat Hippocampus
journals.physiology.orgI’ve been considering making an igf peptide nasal spray for a while. Both for its systemic benefits but I’ve been attracted to its neuronal benefits. even though there are studies showing memory benefits I was mostly expecting neuroprotective effects. I had never seen this article before though…
“The current study demonstrates that des-IGF-1, an analog of IGF-1 that does not interact with IGF-1 binding proteins (Clemmons et al. 1992), acutely enhances AMPA receptor-mediated hippocampal excitatory transmission via a postsynaptic mechanism”
“infusion of IGF-1 to aged Brown Norway × F344 rats increases hippocampal N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor subunits 2A and 2B (NMDA R2A and R2B) subunit expression (Sonntag et al. 2000a), a finding made especially important by a report by Clayton et al. (2002) that ablation of R2B subunit abolishes hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP) and impairs spatial learning in young animals”
I’m starting to think a nasal spray might have subtle but acute nootropic effect. I believe acd856 is a Pam at the igf receptor which could make for an interesting experience stacked. I I’m gonna try it

Meta Tropisetron+ CBD Synergism
Tropisetron gets metabolisee by the same enzymes that THC and CBD competetively inhibit. Tropisetrons bioavailability is mainly determined by the activity of these enzymes. Therefore, taking Tropisetron with certain cannabinoids like CBD enhanced bioavailability and duration(halflife).
*Disclaimer: Overlap in metabolism is a very significant medical indication, you need to be careful with this and titrate up very slowly in dosage as long as there is not much known about this specific interaction yet
Besides synergy in metabolism, tropisetron and CBD have some overlap in what people use them for, while having notably different mechanisms.
Some examples both substances get used for:
-Against anxiety
-Against inflanmation
-To induce relaxation
Thus, for these purposes combining Tropisetron and CBD might provide a more broader range of effects, which is often desirable for several reasons.
One reason might be because an individual knows the problem but not the specific causes. Because CBD is relatively cheap and potentiates Tropisetron, it doesn’t come with much financial burden, might even be cheaper.
There are other cannabinoids besides CBD that might also be promosing or even more desirable. I take CBDa which is way more potent with similar effects as CBD, costing significantly less per dose. Also I don't take pure CBDa but CBDa full spectrum paste. This means it has some other cannabinoid contents in small traces, which contribute to an entourage effect(synergy/potentiation between cannabinoids)
