Hello,  
I am a little [pheromone](https://a314.com/) obsessive since I was 15 years old 🙂.

My arsenal from Androtics:  
IO, IH, IS, IJ, IG, MysteryBoy, Ammo, TUTH, A314 (Oil), MX297, P74, P75, P79, P83, P86, P102  
discontinued: A314 (Oil - Mutant Batch), CTTM, Spaceland, P93, MX100

outside Androtics:  
A-Nol, B-Nol, None, A1, Copulins, Estratetraenol and over 15 products from other companies (which I don’t want to mention in Androtics forum).

I am thinking about writing reports in the near future.

I would like to know about ALL the benefits becoming a “Reporting user”:

helpful [tread A](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/reporting-user-status-what-does-it-mean/32767)

helpful [tread B](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/can-some-reporting-user-please-help/25489)

According to **post number 3** of tread B (URL above), the discount is 50% or $14  
**What is correct:** discount of $14 or 50% (on Putatives, MX and Experimones) ?

According to **post number 4** of tread B (URL above), the discount dependent on how often somebody reports on test products.  
**What are the rules:** good and high quality posts - how often to reach the first or second discount level?

I think its $14 on the base concentration of each putative/experimone/MX, then 50% on higher concentrations. I don’t know how they handle microdose pricing as that’s a lot newer than RU status.

I don’t think the rules are hard and fast - its when they find your reports are consistent and worthwhile. Consistency and honesty are the most important - I’ve seen guys who were obviously going all-out for RU-status and posting glowing/puffed reports about everything get passed over.

It used to take about a full year of regular reporting but more recently I’ve seen people get there faster once they have the basics of reporting well. Keeping a journal, where its easy for them to see the info is about the best/fastest way.

The main benefit, after price is when stocks of certain molecules get low, RUs get priority on remaining stock/concentrations

Other benefits - I don’t think they encourage RUs to talk about everything but you won’t be disappointed. Better throw-ins/upgrades and first crack at the likes of the A314 Special Editions, [P130](https://a314.com/product/p130/) and some of the Project UF packs/other MXs (often without having to ask) are probably the most obvious. I think there are also several grades/groups within the RU structure - or this could just be for admin reasons, so I can only speak for the one I’m in. You usually get an email when they move you from one grade to the other.
