Moderators please clarify the rules on nootropic vendor recommendations

It has come to my attention that recently user posts are deleted for nootropic vendor recommendation. It is a reasonable policy when vendors are using astroturfing or spamming however I've been asked dozens of times in comments and in private about the vendor or brand of the product I reviewed. It is unacceptable and very damaging to this community that it is allowed to mention nootropicsdepot, newmind and science.bio as well as big brands like now, swanson and jarrows while it is prohibited to recommend pglchem. And while I neither can assure the quality of his products nor I recommend the use of his shop, he is synthesizing some interesting compounds . One such compound is of particular importance to me, given my personal experience with certain nootropic derivatives of it like ones sold by newmind. I've been posting for years what I hope is valuable content including some rare scientific sources like this one stating that pemoline is more anti amnesic than stimulants in the screenshot, or even prl-8-53 which is touted by this sub as the ultimate memory enhancer. Also moderators should state sort of conflict of interests in…

How is posing a question regarding transparency on this sub spreading falsehoods and why do you think there is zero evidence of conflict of interests while the paragraph above you, you wrote that the moderator on this sub is also a moderator on your company's sub. I appreciate your long-term commitment, knowledge and input into the nootropic community but I sometimes forget that I'm also a client of your company with over 1k $ in orders and I have a right to ask questions which may seem inconvenient to you or moderators. In the past, I asked you what are the reasons for the price increase of Sabroxy to 25$ per 15g even though raw material cost about 3$ few months before the introduction of this product to your store and you gave me a sound explanation without a need for calling me liar here
Also some other user of this sub has raised concerns recently like the question about strangely positive reviews of your products
Given your tone I'm not sure if my critical questions are welcomed anymore on this sub and yours. I don't post on r/Nootropics jokes anymore due to double ban I received from Majalisk but I do respect the common rules even if I don't agree with them. An…

So again, I have no issue with you asking questions I why thing are the way they are. I have no personal issue with you at all. Everyone here is free to continue to interact here or on /r/NootropicsDepot if you want. I don't hold grudges, nor do I treat people differently because they have disagreed with me. Well, I do hold grudges on the people that have attacked me and my family, but that's reasonable. I just don't want people spreading falsehoods about the other mods being affiliated or paid by me. I don't always want to be blamed for or brought into situations that I have no involvement in. Many times I agree and sympathize with people on certain issues, but my hands are tied. I don't make the rules here. I don't even really enforce the rules here much anymore. I provide my opinions and useful information, then I leave it to the other mods on the team to decide on final actions. I have to stand by their decisions, because that's what I promised I would do when I started Ceretropic. I really am just doing what I promised to everyone that I would do years ago. I try so hard to avoid anything that could be construed as improper.
