Holy Jeebus

I just signed up to the shroomery message board and wow is all I can say...

You would've thought that people on a mushroom website might be a bit more in touch with their morals and whatnot....but jeeez.

It's basically full of little kids spouting racist garbage and swearing at eachother for giggles.
Totally blew my mind...I'm still in shock lol

Well anyway if you're thinking about signing up there...don't. Unless you have the IQ of a friggin hamster.

I tried to call some of them out on using racist language and they all jumped on me calling me a n****r fucker and then proceeded to post hundreds of pics of scat and tubgirl to try and scare me off

Had to vent this somewhere lol sorry guys...it just totally threw me off guard.

Really made me realise just how much I love ICmag and all you cool cats.

Yes the forum is filled with a lot of shitheads. However there are a few people on there that do have genuine wisdom to offer. I think HippieChick of OG fame still posts over there once and awhile, I could be mistaken though.

 

[Laxpunker]

Oh by the way. You're a n****r fucker.

shrooms are for those messed up emo highschool kids who like to get fucked up beyond all recongition because they hate their mamas. stay with the herbusers where were all to chill to hate on each other. hehe... by the way im not saying everyone who does shrooms is that way, but in my area that seems to be the case.

 

[Guest]

I go there for some shroom cultivation info...thats about it. Will never sign up, all ive heard is bad things.

Only check out faqs, so im never on the boards.

 

[Gangabiss]

Yes I must admit there are a few cool people there but it seems they are few and far between from what I've seen.

Sounds exactly like Yahooka and it is supposed to be a weed forum, it's more like foul mouthed, school yard bullies with less than half a brain, and no idea about morals and what is cool. Hell they have 13 years old members talking about drugs, wanting to know what cough syrup to drink that night. I just don't see how any self respecting adult could be a member at any of those forums for very long.

Tubgirl, scat.....goatsee...name calling STFU, etc, etc, ect. That is what 99% of the threads consist of.

Not a lot of boards like IC, not many......

So true POMH, I have been a member of Yahooka since 2000. It has been completely taken over by loudmouth angry children. Even in the grow forums its hard to have a decent conversation. I cant stand to go there at all anymore. There are some great people there, one of the moderators is my friend in real life but I still cant take the uglyness thats been allowed to consume that place.

But I feel very lucky to have found IC mag. Even though my first seed purchase was from Gypsy in 2001 I didnt hear about this until OG died.

Umm........ Not exactly.... You're gonna have a buncha people disagreeing with you on that one. It's not that shrooms aren't good... it's that HS kids just do it for recreational purposes, while many here do it for enlightenment purposes.

Yeah Mohillsk8 youre way off with statement.
But Gangabiss if you want an intellectual view of shroom cultivation and experiences than go to mycotopia.net. From my experience, theyre the most educated group of shroom cultivators on the internet. And you wont find a whole bunch of irrevelant, childish posts like you do at shroomery.

 

[SEEDYNONO]

i never agreed with shrooms anyway. recreational or enlightenment??? same damn thing imo. very hard to differentiate a kid who THINKS he will feel cool vs. a grown up who THINKS they are going to have an enlightenment experience.

i've tried field picked cyans and some cultivated cubensis but never really have any enjoyable experiences. i've tried boiling teas made from fresh shrooms and dried product and i've eaten dried ones.. just for recreational means of course i have no health problems that help me justify my experimentation.

i just don't think shrooms are that great of an experience either way. how the hell do you actually enjoy that crazy paranoid feeling??? or attempt to learn something about yourself or the world from it? i guess its just my body or brain or whatever but everyone tells me 'oh eat some and you'll see lights and tracers and you may totally trip out' or 'you'll stare at everything and just smile all night' or 'oh you'll figure out all your problems and understand the universe'

instead i get a really freaked out 'when is this going to go away and stop making me so damn crazy with my thoughts' feeling. only thing i can compare the feeling to is the emptiness feeling i got when i toked some 20x salvia out of my roor. it just really sucked. they taste so nappy and stale too and it lingers in your mouth. yuck.

when every trip is obviously a bad trip its time to just forget about it and go back to what i do best. drinking moderate amounts of alcohol and smoking the super fine doja.

mj makes me feel so warm and happy inside and never does me wrong.

about the whole shroomery nonsense.. if i ever have kids.. they are going to hate my guts.

its funny how the cycle works with irresponsible people having unexpected children and raising them to be delinquent little shits who then are more prone to doing the whole thing over again.. can't stand it. make sure you know what your kids are doing and stop being so damn horny and ignorant.

 

[Gangabiss]

Thanks Indophiliac I'll check that out.

"Not alot of boards like IC" You're spot on POMH. There's so many cool people on here.

Wow that sucks for you man...I feel bad for you that you will never know the absolute joy and euphoria that mushrooms can bring...of course you can't avoid the 'bad trips' forever although I think you learn more from the hard trips than the easy ones.

They are a spiritual teacher and if it wants to show you something that you don't want to look at about your life then no wonder you'll have a bad reaction.

 

[KharmaGirl]

Same damn thing? No offence, but taht's an ignorant statement. There is a BIG difference between using for rec purposes and using for spiritual/enlightment purposes

 

[Laxpunker]

Most definately, but they aren't for everyone, obviously like Seedynono.







Seen many more shitty and regretful things that people have done on alcohol than any other drug. But to each his own.

I don't know that all the asshole kids on forums have bad parents. Do they? When I see adult moderators on a forum telling 13 year old children which cough syrup to buy or which cold pills to take to get high on, I wonder about adults in general, not just parents.

Seriously, I have screws in my shoulder because of alcohol. The only thing I have from Shrooms is a dopey grin, and that fades after about eight hours.

 

[SEEDYNONO]

dunno.. i still don't think the motivation for eating shrooms being either recreation or enlightenment has any affect on the overall tangibility of the experience. you are still trying to put a chemical into your brain to alter your state of mind.. trying to justify the reasoning is just voided imo due to the fact that its only fancy bullshit rationalization to me.

big whooup.. wanna fight about it?

as for the alcohol bashing jesus.. i know most potheads like to use alcohol as some terrible evil scapegoat to glorify the near scientifically nonexistent ill effects of mj use. i've done it in the past. but you assume too much. not everyone who enjoys alcohol is an alcoholic or ever encounters the many downsides of irresponsible or abusive comsumption. unavoidable negative outcomes from the use of alcohol by people other than myself is the only valid argument i can recognize since i can't control other people who drive on the road and make decisions that could affect people other than themselves.

having not ever become 'addicted' to alcohol in anyway i can't quite say that it is as dangerous (as a pure substance only) as other drugs such as cocaine. i have felt coke is likely very addicting to people once they start using it (no matter willpower or whathave you). and therefore the coke is evil because it controls the person. alcohol is most dangerous in a person who makes poor decisions about controlling it. although many will argue that once in the clutch of alcoholism it is just as addictive as coke i just don't see it that way on a grand scale. just my opinion tho.. i see the legality of alcohol as fine because so many people can use it without any problems whatsoever.

a glass of wine with dinner anyone? i love how people can read right past the word 'moderate' i so carefully inserted into my post directly before the word alcohol.

you guys make it out like i'm a drunk with a failing liver.. haha come on now. you guys blew that out of context.. plus i never openly criticized any health problems let alone poor desicion making issues related to shrooms. i just said they aren't an enjoyable experience to me. the feeling is not one that makes me happy or any positive feeling/emotion for that matter. i don't think it had anything to do with the trip showing me bad thoughts about myself either. i specifically remember not being able to comprehend a single valid thought at all. best way i can describe it was like just a bunch of computer code being pushed through a cpu that makes no sense to the os and has no purpose at all. just random meaningless ones and zeros. i've tried it about 5 times looking for a different outcome and had different experiences each time and different set of environments and dynamics around me. none of them proved to be enjoyable which is all i was really looking for.

if you have fun on shrooms i'm glad for you.. seriously. they are just not something i'd give the time of day again.

as for the parents.. who cares if some adult moderator on some website is willing to give your kid bad information??? the whole point i was making is don't be a dumbass and assume that other adults in the world care about the well-being and integrity of your child and his habits and behavior. thats not their problem and blaming them is beyond pointless. the blame falls back squarly on the parents for not finding out that their kid is talking to x or y adult online! so yes the problem is of course with adults in general but in the situation of raising kids you are the parent and you are the only variable in the equation that can be easily (relatively) manipulated.

i'm going home.. later yall.

The internet is still relatively new and a lot of parents don't know about all the bullying and peer pressure that can happen online. I know, I know, it sounds ridiculous but to a very impressionable 12 year old it's a whole different ballgame.


Thanks for the heads up on shroomery though, that's too bad. The only drug type forums I've been on were OG (never registered, just browsed a lot), highbred, and here. ....and I thought there was still quite a bit of flaming here. Guess not.

fine... you got to be kidding.....how many people do you know that has died from a alcohol related crash? how many females do you know that has been beaten from their alcoholic POS husband, how many families have been broken up... how many lives have been ruined....... COUNTLESS, countless times..... When put it up next to MJ, it doesnt stand a chance next to the safety record that MJ has....... not even close......... alcohol is a shit drug... it might be fine for you but what about the guy that has less will power than you do?? alcohol in certain peoples hands is a license to kill....... to kill themselves, while taking down others with them to their dark demise.... so sad what alcohol has done to people and society....

when you have that many kids behaving like that on a forum, why would any adults stay?

besides, it is a security risk to post about growing there, many people have left because their private info had been given out including ip addresses

What crazy paranoid feelings??? Id only feel paranoid if I was shrooming in a shitty place. Maybe the place ur shrooming in sux. Either that or you weren't in the right frame of mind before doing them. They are not for recreational use tho. And you can't take them with this "I want to have fun" or "Ah I had a shitty day I need to shroom" or "I'm bored. Maybe I'll shroom" mindset....

 

[Gangabiss]

Exactly naga_sadu, they are a sacrement and should be treated as such. Not to be used as simply another method of getting 'fucked up'.

If you underestimate the mushroom they will kick you in the arse and demand respect from you.
