The dog in your picture doesnāt happen to be a shitty mouse-sized Chihuahua or something similar subpar canine? Because these are not allowed here, and rightfully so.
Sorry? Who are you?

Please refrain from posting pictures of dogs that do not have the right size. Anything smaller than a shoebox or larger than a 19th century steamer trunk is not allowed and will give an error message when uploading, sorry.

I thought we were banned in China for recognizing Tibet (and probably Taiwan too).

I guess an explosion in new users who just check in places and tick beers could explain joetās assertion. Iāve seen a few of these guys on Japan specific places/beers. Iāve also seen a large drop in people adding new beers as the community here has been gutted with half of people who actively added places/beers no longer doing so.
I definitely spend less time here and am more likely to say forget it, if a beers is not in the database.
These new tick/check in only users are useless to me as they give me very little to go on in terms of what a beer place is like or if a beer is worth trying out.

Thatās true. And they have little incentive to actually invest in the site. A classic seeders vs. leechers conundrum. Leechers will always be way way more numerous and their numbers might grow exponentially, but seeders are those without whom things cannot be done. The ā1%ā that creates 99% of content and curates for 100% of content. Untappd isnāt free of that. Say, in Croatia, most people will leech and rely on a few zealots to add entries. Once, a beer that wasnāt even that rare went for at least a month without its own entry because everybody was waiting for those few guys to add it and they intentionally wouldnāt that time. 
Iām just not seeing, say, that massive Chinese influx doing anything for the site (bar some previously present people perhaps).
Morris says āeat shit.ā I asked him if he thought that was a rude thing to say to a user nobody here knows, but he says he canāt be bothered to come up with anything nicer.

Problem is, with RB there are still a few whining seeders (including myself) but without any leecher to support thatā¦ Been to Vermont last weekend and I had to add new entries for half of what I tasted or bought ā¦and a good part of the other half didnāt have more than 10 ratings. All the entries were on UT with a lot of them over 300 scoresā¦
At least youāre adding them. 
You see Iām a special type, a former seeder whoās now a leecher but who still adds all things he finds and who is even an adminā¦ I guess that makes me aā¦ leeder?

yay?
Youāre still a seeder then. And that makes ya a great person! 
Dunno, by leechers I primarily meant the people who basically use the database (to buy, visit etc.), particularly the places section, but never contribute, not even ratings of any kind. Ratings are something and yeah, we definitely lack people like that -> Iām not feeling it as much in Croatia (we have a lot of raters per capita), but itās still very much felt.
Thing isā¦ Itās dead easy and intuitive to tick UT-style right now, both in the app and on the site. Itās not an issue. Absolutely no reason to stupidify anything. The community & pic-adding part might be. And mostly the fact that weāre arriving 6-7 years too late to a more serious mobile app market.

We have that: awards. Thankfully we donāt get notifications of that. Iām not against a system with more awards / badges or whatever theyāre called, as long as there is a way to shut it off so to speak, notifications at least. If it means I have to click one more time it is already super annoying. So if anyone wants to collect awards or badges for every fart, the UT style basically, fine by me but please give me a way to escape from that.
