Y are there so many assholes on the shroomery?

Among drug users there is a high number of people who are assholes. We have a high number of drug users, so we have a large number of assholes.

The website openly endorses members being assholes, from the top down (see OTD, SA, the Pub and entries on the Greamlin panel) and from the bottom up (look at how assholism is accepted as the norm by the user base).

On many other websites either the staff or the user base come down on assholes, here its part of website culture.

Suppose the staff would start to rule the website with an iron fist and put a stop to assholism. It simply wouldnt be the shroomery anymore but the website equivalent of a police state. I dislike there being assholes all over on the shroomery probably more than you do, but if the staff turned into some kind of Nazi Stasi Gestapo type of thought police, the Shroomery 2.0 wouldnt feel like home anymore, not to me and a whole bunch of other veteran members (who aren't assholes)

As a member, by all means speak out. If someone is being a dick, point out you don't like it. If it breaks the rules, notify a moderator. You can put members and even whole forums on ignore. Have a pleasant shroomery experience and be part of the positive crew.

Have a nice day
