Proliferation of glorification threads...?

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
Well, why?

What is it that makes you post pages of trash on why drugs are good?

Fine, if you want to do them, your call, but why do you feel an incessant and irrelevant need to post multiple times, random pictures, about it?

Even the Sex board doesn't degenerate like this.

    I agree. Ok, so you like doing drugs, nice, but no-one wants to read the bragging. It's childish. If someone goes to sex and writes:

    "i luv likin my g/f our its grate o yes o yes", they would get flamed and slagged off.

    I think the drugs forum should be (as others) for questions, intelligent discussion, interesting stories, etc.

    There has been an influx of newbies to the drugs board over the last month and I've been finding some stuff irritating, but I guess at the same time some new blood has been welcome, I doubt you'll find many of these threads from the regular posters, perhaps we need a turtle styled clean up operation <IMG SRC="biggrin.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">

    That said, unless we discuss the pro/anti legalisation debate what else is there really ? If people come for advice its usually given, bur apart from that we don't really have alot else to talk about <IMG SRC="frown.gif" border="0" ALT="icon"> We just end up woffling basically, I do see your point and I'm inclined to agree though.

    Well u see people come and go from this board. The new people are always the ones posting about how goods the drugs are, do u ever see the regulars starting a new post?

    Why is it when u go into sex people are always asking the same questions like how do u give blowjobs. It coz they r new to the board and havnt seen a previous post about it

    But then again drugs in the right doses are fuckin amazing, sometimes better than sex

    First of all I don't think most people do, if you're aiming this at Morrocan Roll than I agree.

    Secondly, it's acceptable for people to diss drugs, yes? So why is it unacceptable to say how great they are, short of telling people to do them.

    DJP, most of the posters in this forum do drugs, so when we talk about em it's fairly obvious what we're going to say is going to be pro drugs, agreed? I'm not going to start lying, after all this place is for expressing my opinion.

    Fair play to you mate!

    There's a thread in anything goes about fears and phobia's, and I have to say my biggest fear is getting old.

    People say that when I'm older I'l regret doing the drugs I've done, but the only thing I'll ever regret was the things I Didn't do. Life is for living, not worrying!

    Nope, there's not <IMG SRC="biggrin.gif" border="0" ALT="icon"> It's just most people's initial, and somewhat stereotypical reactions to stoners is teenagers, through to college/uni students in their 20's, not men approaching the 50 mark.

    Well, I didn’t see the original ‘flooding’ featured at the start of the topic, as I’ve been away from the boards couple of weeks – but rock ‘n’ roll Mr morrocan roll!

    I’m 39, and still enjoying the herb big-style, some ‘others’ for parties – my biggest pleasure: trying ‘H’ only once & never again, seen the results!

    I tell you what it is - the ignorance of youth - oh - that and they still think sex and drugs are 'Naughty'

    Anyone with decent open parents and mature attitude won't be posting inane questions about sex and drugs

    I was under the impression ‘THE SITE’ was aimed at ‘THE YOUTH’ – isn’t it a place for people to learn - maybe by their own mistakes - or better by others?

    yeah - sorry about that I usually am annoyed at people who think the 'young' have no say or knowledge, however, some of the utter shite posted on these boards would suggest that many of 'the YOUTH' here have no sense or knowledge. And why didn't their parents treat them like the free thinking, bright young things they are and give them some self respect and the ability to form their own opinions instead of leaving them thinking they are so naughty for talking about blow jobs.

    The Site is I'm sure, here for advice and help but it seems to me whenever anyone does give good advice/help (ie Black Knight) they get treatede like shit by people who can't even form a proper argument!

    There seems to be a split. All the people worth talking/listening to are on the Politics and relationship forums while the really immature ones end up on Sex and Drugs.

    Many of us are sorted enough to think about more than text speak and doing 'naughty' things.

    Rant over

    Taken out of context - that must be the BEST advert for being really immature!

    hehe :D

    I don't like it when people come on here and say things along the lines of "yea, i got soooo fucked, I'm sooo cool 'cos I could barely think." The mixmag survey discovered that in most people it is no longer considered cool to do suck like, and it is generally prefered if you say, "oh, I only took one".

    What I like about this forum when I first joined (and still like about it usually) is that when people do come along glorifying all drugs without thought is that they are basically told to fuck off or sort out there act. At the moment there are a lot of new newbies, and I guess us druggies are too loved-up ;):p to be so rude (yea, right). Its a phase, it'll pass. In the last 10 months that I've been here, its always the mature ones that stay around, the pthers leave.

    For the regulars this place is a place to chat about things that most other people don't understand or agree with. Along with chatting about experiences we also help and lend advice to anyone (newbie or reg) who has any questions.

    Well why not stay in those forums (realtionship and politics), why bother posting in this forum at all, especially when all you write seems to be negative. The immature ones are the people who post for no other reason than to diss other posters which is what you seem to be doing. You take things far too seriously and if you don't like this forum and the people in it, don't post here.

    Many of us are sorted enough to think about more than text speak and doing 'naughty' things.

    We don't talk about drugs cos they're 'naughty', drugs are a part of life for some people that many others don't understand or agree with and this place is somewhere we can talk quite freely about them which can only be a good thing when the real world is full of bullshit and biased information from the media, government... etc.

    The majority of posters in this forum are drug users so you'd expect a lot of threads 'glorifying' drugs, and I'm sure that if there were more anti-drugs posters then there would be the opposite. If people like something, than there should be no reason why they can't express it, short of telling everyone to go and do it.

    Re: mix mag!!! lol

    please carry on making me laugh!

    I was merely pointing out that they support the trend that it is now no longer considered cool to get completely fucked, but instead is better to take things at a more enjoyable pace... which I would say is a fairly mature attitude with drugs. I don't read mixmag on a regular basis, indeed only the issue with the survey has passed through my hands, but as it was one of the largest surveys of its type, asking drugs users their opinions, I would say that the opinions in it are of a wide enough basis to be deemed relevant.

    Hey morrocan roll, i understand you even when i am only 24, but when my girlfriend leaves me for a week i am stoned the whole week.
    Yes and the music has to be loud.

    I like your posts cause the experience is speaking from it.
    I like your style cause you are the prove drugs do not ruin life.

    inteligence dtermination money....none of these things will be the determining factor. stay free my friend...from heroin!

    I would hope that there are enough walking examples of what that gear does to you to put anyone off. I dispair when I hear people, usually rich-kids at parties thinking about trying it. They don't have a clue, this is NOT recreational drug, it's the opposite, a lifestyle.
