Better companies out there
Well I would say for starters to not sensor people on discord when they post legit pics of hemp they bought that was moldy or brown. The issue isn't that one person got them, cause shit happens, its just because the owner argued about whether or not the product came from them or that the lighting was bad, and then simply removed the posts. That alone caused a bunch of long term customers to just quietly stop purchasing. Changed rewards points system mis stream with no notice, because they were supposedly losing too much money (even though multiple other companies still use the same rewards system Arete used to have), wonder how they could be losing funds but all these other companies seem to be thriving (Flow, WNC, etc.). Plus those other companies have product that is equal to if not better than Arete's for a better price to begin with. Then months ago he tells everyone on discord they will be able to use all their points at once for a limited time before the new rewards system came out. Got the email for the rewards points, and like everyone else I got ready to spend my 8k in points, only to be met with server crashes, not able to use rewards points, long queues just to get to the website. To find some people were able to check out and their purchases are being honored, but no update to the rest of us who could never get through since Friday when they halted the event.
