I know this info is somewhere, but I can’t seem to find it. Hold on, I’ll do a quick search… Okay, I did find this helpful post: [Reporting User Status - What Does It Mean?](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/reporting-user-status-what-does-it-mean/32767) Would making this post, or a similar one, into a sticky that’s easy to find, be helpful in encouraging new members to test and report? ---

I would rather have inquisitive people by nature who go looking for it (info on how to be upgraded) be reporting users. ---

Reporting user is not a right, its a privilege afforded to only those who earn the right. Just because someone posts is not basis alone. There are many, many reasons that are taken into consideration. 😉 ---

I do not want send a private message, as not only do I know how it may be a while, Steve, but also because it is important for everyone to know. The company works wonders, you allow all to contribute or purchase at these prices as it is at your loss already. Yet even if one was to choose to not report, they can still buy. This whole mones science has changed my life. I am so gracious to all that work to keep this going. It’s been hard for all, I know as well for this company. You go out of your way to make sure we are happy and satisfied. No matter what the expense or time invested, what other company does that? I just cannot express my gratification enough, you work wonders. I know times are bad but things will get better, I hope for this company to succeed (which it will) and grow exponentially. I respect and thank everyone who contributes to the store and those who work to make it better. Thank you forum, thank you androtics. I was at the edge truly without much hope. This community saved me and I shall do everything I can to make even the slightest difference. Thank you. Sorry for the novel, I started talking about how much you sell at a loss and just decided not to stop. And there isn’t a “I love this place” thread, yet. And first thoughts to you are he wants the whole discount deal. I don’t deserve it, I have neglected for a while and am starting new. Besides. Charge me $300 a bottle of alpha, watch me pay 🙂 ---

Note to moderator, send it as a pm to Steve if it’s not right for this. If you can’t, well at least you read it 🙂 thanks ---

It was just a thought, since many of the newer women, as they mostly frequent the womens section and rarely if ever delve into the mens section _(where there are many more people and consequently much more discussion about testing and reporting)_, are not even aware that such a thing as “reporting user status” even exists. ---

I mean considering whenever you type the words reporting user it links to this thread 😉. I think she might be OD’ng on Alpha A314 again 😃 ---

> [@Steve](#): > > Reporting user is not a right, its a privilege afforded to only those who earn the right. Just because someone posts is not basis alone. There are many, many reasons that are taken into consideration. 😉 I don’t think she meant to imply that RU status be given to anyone male or female that happens to post a lot. A person could post nothing but questions for months and not be considered and RU. The ladies simply want a little more selection of products, which as has been stated requires more data and research. The best way to get more data on female products is of course to have more reporting users. Of course for somebody to be considered valid as a reporting user they have to not only use the products and report but have at least a basic understanding of what is happening. I’ve posted a few times in the mens forum that certain products should be tested via Steve’s instructions for sweet spot testing and imo in a certain order so as to avoid products with fairly similar effects, having those effects blur together. ex: I would not recommend a person testing Instant Shine with [Instant Openness](https://a314.com/product/instant-openness/) back to back…different effects but similar enough in terms of mood elevation and likability that they might get blurred. I think newer female members should be encouraged to go through the female and gender neutral products in an organized fashion both for their benefit with regards to knowing what to use, when to use it and how much to use…but also because the experience at reading changes in body language, mood and behavior the products evoke from others would make them more valuable as reporting users. THEN…some newer MX’s and possible consumer line products might be more feasable.
