I have been out of the loop, Bella. I have not been included in any of the recent discussions. So, please stop.

Renny told me all I need to worry about is keeping my storefront stocked when I asked about the project. That was 10 days ago...

Meanwhile, I've heard nothing, while the committee goes on deciding whatever you guys are deciding. I've been given no input or information. I've been asked for no input.

To me that is out of the loop.

You need to confer with each other before anyone talks to me? Is that in the loop? I don't think so, and I am really bothered that this was my project, my idea, my willingness to workhorse this, and nobody seems to think I need to be confered with?

Impatient? Over three months has gone by. I think I am very patient. I'm just not used to being taken for granted.

Jeebus, JV, just shoot me in the head!

Uhm..okay. So does that mean, not for now, maybe later?

<p>To all PheroTruth members,</p>

<p>We want to address questions that have come up about the molecule testing project.</p>

<p>To start, all persons involved in the project agreed that it was to remain completely under wraps until we were ready to launch, but somehow word leaked out, and now we're forced to address an issue that should never have been.</p>

<p>When we initially discussed the testing of unknown molecules, Diane was still working on her copulins and we supported her in her development project. She did not have a store and she was not selling pheromones. Members who were interested in her copulins would contact her through her email address. We supported Diane in her efforts and in the testing and we allowed her to sell her very first copulin products through Pherotruth.</p>

<p>Between those initial discussions and now, Diane also started offering pheromones for sale on PheroTruth, then opened her store. She also began her own testing, and reported the results in the main forum, on the very same "unknown" molecules that had been decided upon and designated for the testing project. Therefore tainting the entire project in the process.</p>

<p>We have been struggling with how we could still provide a platform for molecule testing that would be unbiased, in light of the reports that have already been made, and how we could still run the project and not appear to be affiliated with Diane or any other pheromone supplier.</p>

<p>Please know, we've invested countless hours discussing viable solutions to these issues, but because we're committed to remaining unbiased and unaffiliated with any one pheromone retailer, we're sorry to say, that means having to scrap this particular project.</p>

<p>As to Diane's saying she's "out of the loop". That's far from the truth. To avoid getting into an unnecessary battle, the contents of our private conversations concerning this testing project will remain exactly that.</p>

<p>The project may have initially been Diane's idea, however, she made a point, stressing that this was not to be named her project and that it should be the PheroTruth testers project.</p>

<p>Despite the sequence of events, that led to this decision, we will continue to do what we have done from the beginning, and that's to support Diane. We wish her the best of luck in her business and exciting future endeavors.</p>

<p>As PheroTruth grows, we grow together. We are dedicated to this forum and it's members. We built it for you and we remain true of heart. We will continue to test and report striving to give unbiased, honest, accurate feedback on products from all vendors, including Paradise 7, to the best of our abilities and we look forward to enjoying the same from you.</p>

<p>Thank you,</p>

<p>Your Forum Staff - Bella, Mark, Renny and Tisha</p>

I saw the new thread, thanks for clearing it up. We'll just have to do it the non-scientific way then, through anecdotal, first hand reports then?

<p>Wow this is the first I've heard of any of this.</p>
<p>It just would have been nice for anyone to talk to me about any of it.</p>

<br /><br />Diane, what was your pov/expectations/plan regarding the testing?</p>

It is all water under the bridge now Phya. It really doesn't matter.

Nbully in his blog has suggested that:

TAA = alpha-androstadienol
TAC = beta-androstadienol.

See here for his reasoning:

Does anybody agree with his theory?

What a shame how this went down. The pheromone community sure has had its share of turbulence already...

Just's another bunch of people fighting for control. Just watched the DVD: The Secret. If you can keep the people ignorant, the power is yours to control. This worked out just the way someone wanted.
