Can we please start modding or moving Tianeptine user experience reports?

Or create another sub for personal experience posts?
There seems to be far too many posts asking the most basic of routinely detailed/explored questions as well as useless personal experience posts that, in conjunction, seem to cover the full spectrum of human emotion.
- Tianeptine makes me hungry
- Tianeptine makes me suicidal
- Tianpetine makes me happy
- Tianeptine reduces my appetite
- Tianeptine makes me shit funny
- Tinapetine makes me shit good
And especially this one:
- Tianeptine makes me feel shitty the next day or quite a bit after I take it, is this normal? (YES, especially when you're mega-dosing)
Here's a brief summary for anyone and everyone taking Tianpetine so we can stop posting about it:
- It's MOA is not totally understood. Supposedly it is (primarily) a SSRE that has some mysterious dopamine receptor potentiation qualities and circumstantial evidence for neuroprotection against particular stresses as well as the potential to increase BDNF and presumably neuroplasticity. Additionally, your particular response to Tianeptine will be dependent on your brain's current state of flux and your particular sensitivities. Tianeptine acts as a μ-opioid receptor an…

It seems to me that a considerable number of posts and replies should be headed to /r/stackadvice ("has anyone tried x", "your top 3 noots for a desert island", "theanine makes me anxious").
To combat this, I've been adding people whose opinion I value as friends to make their usernames standout while browsing and I follow some of the users' RSS feeds explicitly.
Honestly, it's beyond me if a new space for high quality scientific nootropic discussion is really required, or a sharper distinction (like that questions go in /r/drugs and more informed discussion in /r/drugnerds).
This has been bugging me for a while now, for your consideration.

We are talking about creating a system like /r/science, where every post is tagged with a category (Scientific Study, Anecdote, Vendor Discussion, Mechanism Question, etc). Then we'll have CSS where you can filter which tags you see. That way people can see the types of posts they enjoy, and filter out the rest. We'll also be more strict with the moderation of obvious recreational posts or things that belong to a different subreddit.
