I agree with all of this. But there’s a major flaw with the feedback system on this site. Anyone can leave any feedback for anyone else for any reason. And that’s a big deterrent. I don’t think I’ve ever left negative feedback on this site. Been here 12 years I think. You suppose I’ve never had a bad transaction? Baits packed poorly? People taking weeks to ship? Many times…..the problem is, people are too arrogant to admit when they’re doing something wrong. And I know damn well the minute I leave negative feedback, they’re going to come up with excuses to do the same for me. And I don’t need that. And once that’s left, it’s permanent. I could leave literally anyone here negative feedback for no reason whatsoever and it sticks with them. So in order for this to work, something needs to be changed in the feedback system.
What good is a feedback system if you don’t leave negative feedback. Maybe use what we do have properly and only use PayPal as goods/service?

For every monthly SUB and Battle the SU Crew takes a look at all entries submitted. In some cases it is easy for us to validate the fish and in others it is difficult. In addition to the Crew we also send Battle entries to 8-10 well respected members of the Swimbait Community (both forum members and not).
When it comes to documenting your catches we encourage you to shoot as many photos as you can and when possible video of the weight. The more photos and angles you have the easier it is for us to validate a catch. In a perfect world we would require all entries to have full Cast 2 Catch but we know a good number of our members are on shore and C2C is not possible.One thing that make it easier on us is a straight down shot of the fish on the board with the top lip as close to 0 as possible. Some prefer to close the mouth but that usually requires a second person to take the photo as you hold it. Example belowIf you are ever questioning if you have enough pics or videos, just take more.Thanks again to all entries in all our tournaments, at the end of the day we can only make calls based on the photos and videos we have.

Seems like there have been some scammers lately. There have been 2 types
1. Long time members with good reputations from previous transactions. These guys are posting baits only taking PayPal friends and family and selling the same bait multiple times and never sending it to anybody.
2. New members answering WTB ads via PM saying their friend is selling please send them the money. (we have disabled PMs for new members as a result)
SOLUTION:
PAY WITH GOODS AND SERVICES ONLY.
Any ads posted saying friends and family only will be deleted no matter how long the member has been here.
-
He is a scammer and has been banned
-
Looks like all 3 of these accounts have logged in from the same IP address.
We will not ban the IP address yet in case he decides to make it right.

The site regularly crashing and being glitchy doesn't really bother me, but saw this post and thought it was worth clarifying that SU definitely makes money on our traffic alone through advertising. It's not just the store. Every time we visit the black market or any forum, we are benefitting them monetarily. I agree SU doesn't owe us an explanation, but I disagree about the forums not being a money maker in and of themselves. They obviously are. Love SU and all they do, but let's not twist it and pretend our traffic on the forums isn't a money maker for them.
There are no paid advertisers on SU, we do not make $ on traffic alone. The only time the forum is compensated is when members click through the banner and purchase from TW.
The forum has been up for about 12.5 years now and we try to keep it running 24/7. In those years we’ve probably been down a total of 20 days.
We regularly have to update the forum software and servers. This update just took longer than most.

Thanks. We banned him right away

Swimbait Underground and Butch Brown @swimbait 24/7 have teamed up to build an exact replica of Butch's legendary big bass boat. He spent hundreds of hours building a 2022 version of his 1966 Alumacraft. It has been rebuilt 5 times over the years. Improved on each time, this is the 6th and greatest version.
All proceeds from the raffle will go directly to Southern California Charity Tilt Outdoors. Tilt is an outdoor adventure program that provides intentional experiences in nature that lead to transformation in the lives of youth in high-risk situations.

If you look at the label on the new trebles, they are sized / rated as such:
Size 2 | 1.0 G Size 1 | 1.4 G Size 1/0 | 2.0 G
Does anyone have any insight as to what the "G" rating represents? It''s not weight, that's listed in the item description. They weigh between 8g - 9g depending on which size hook.
It is weight. We had the wrong image in the description. Thanks for catching it we will get it updated.

Will there ever be a silver version to go with baits that have a white underbelly so as not to have out of place black circles on the belly? if these ratings are even close to true then I'd be interested in getting some in a silver version.
We offer silver in bulk for bait makers.

The rings are custom made for SU not a collaboration with any company. With any product sold we always test on the water prior to selling. The ratings we have are based on actual tests done by the factory.

We have an update coming and we’ll see about new emojis. We don’t have control over what the platform has

Not tryin to beat a dead horse or stir post, I've learned my lesson but just have a question.
@swimbaitunderground Once someone has been banned what access do they have to the site? Can they read and right messages and just not post anything for sale, trade, etc. or can they not message people and or read messages at all? The only reason i'm asking is it looks like Whompus was last on the site 20 hours ago and if dude wants to make amends and reimburse the people that he grifted does he have the ability to communicate with them?
Once they’re banned they cannot login or view messages. That’s one of the reasons we don’t typically ban right away as we want to allow the member some time to make things right.
