JoeMolloy and his ban

I'm so confused.
I used to hate Joe Molloy. The guy is a bastard. He's arrogant, and he can be a total dick.
But dammit if he didn't write some of the best shit on this forum. Almost everything he wrote was worth reading, and I can't say that for a lot of the people here!
Now he's banned, and I don't know why. And I for one will miss him.
He really put psychedelics and the psychedelic state of mind into perspective for me. He taught me how to have a healthy respect for psychedelics by not looking to them to learn. He was right when he said don't listen when people tell you to integrate, it will only make things worse.
The psychedelic state of mind is bullshit, he was damn right.
There's my ode to Joe Molloy.
What do you guys have to say?

The reason he was banned was because yes, he did make us question our journeys in the realm of psychs, but for the past few days now all he's been doing is "OH well since you're so enlightened please tell all of us who aren't on your level" no matter what someone would say. He was just trolling.

I disagree on that one. I try integrate my psychedelic feelings and conclusions into daily life, and feel like that can be the best parts about psychedelics.
where's the post you're talking about?

I'm not so sure though. I think to a certain extent, yes, but I would say that I for one definitely got a lot out of it.
Maybe he was gettin a bit out of control, but I didn't think it deserved a ban just yet!
Maybe I'm wrong though, oh well.

where's the post you're talking about?
I would say that integration is okay, and even good to a certain extent, but people try to integrate to the point of making their journeys a reality, and it's unhealthy.
I'd be the first to say that I've taken some great things from my trips, but I never go into my trips hoping to learn.
And I don't have time to find the post right now, but I'll go look for it later!

Making posts that his style was liked will just piss mods off though.
I did notice a difference in his attitude once he got popular.
Either way,
He'll learn a lesson, or get banned again. Only time will tell which.

3day ban is nothing. i really find it hard to believe they would ban someone of the callibre of joe. He's a great influence on here. They are just keeping people in check.

I made a thread.. and for a few days he seemed to chill out and I went from hating him to getting him and his standpoints. But if he can't be a nice respectful person then I'm not sure how upset I am about his departure. Though I guess his rude blunt words make the impact he's trying to achieve better then calm asserted advice. I have mixed feelings.
I think the psychadelic experience is very personal and really just up for ones own deciphering. He always said he couldn't get answer.. maybe he should have never intended to ask questions. I do at some points but I only seek what benifits my life and how I can help the world around me. Because while I'm here that's all that matters.
If Joes mad that their were no all encompassing knowledge filled answers to the universe and reality's secrets.. well all I can say is some things are secret and too big for our comprehension for reasons unknown anyways. We'll never grip them. Be happy with the wonderment. Sorry joe you've tricked your self into thinking you were deceived by setting a mission to "find" to begin with.
I'm just as level headed in my societal interactions I'm willing to put money on it. Yet I also enjoy my psychedelics and am happier not trying to wrap my head around some things. The middle between skepticism and belief is called wonderment. And instead of thinking he's got it figured out. I bet he'd be better off with some in his interprations of the pyschadelic experience

The one thing that annoys me about this joe character are threads like these. This one, the one about him being president and the one where some guy was all butthurt at him.
Through infamy he's become some kind of celebrity on this forum and it really needs to stop. I'd say the primary reason for his recent trolling/attention-whoring was his addiction to this new found fame.
The problem with celebrities in general is they give us an outlet for us to project our own ego onto. In tthe case of this joe fellow, everybody is projecting their own self doubt/cynicism onto him so they can attack themselves without actually attacking themselves. Unfortunately for people like joe, they just end up being a concept (like joe's cynical psychedelic user demeanor) rather than a person.
The person who was once joe has been betrayed and killed by the concept that is joemolloy.

Qft. I made a thread about him(the butt hurt guy, as you put it) which lead to two follow ups which might make me the antagonist. But I called him out and people who read it will see that it was a very eye opening discussion and joe even rated me 5 shrooms for it. I even saw his way of addressing people tone down for a bit. Then more threads came out and led to this point where you nailed everything on the head.

i think your all over analyzing things too much here. Joe is Joe. His opinions and viewpoints are his own. If it's different to yours then so be it. thats what these boards are for, for people to communicate and exchange their experiences and viewpoints on different issues.
I don't think people see him as some sort of president or anything, i just see him as one with alot of experience and a notable character. He has a name and a reputation and that commands respect. It doesn't really go any further then that.
I for one love to hear other peoples opinions who are different from my own, and joe is one who is very firm in his beliefs, and has arrived at his own conclusions for whatever reason, which is cool. Diversity is a good thing.

yea, but he was being overtly douchey with his, to the point that he was obviously talking down on people who were simply sharing THEIR opinion.
im all about sharing opinions, but i dont mind that he got banned for being a cockpouch. he could easily have said the things he said in a much less condescending way and he probably wouldnt be banned.
hell, i never even noticed his posts until recently (when he began to develop a bit of a superiority complex).

Well let me set you straight now.
If he was banned purely for his obnoxious recent posts, I'm willing to let it rest.
But if he was profiled for his raitonalistic opinions against the fundamental beliefs of this forum.
Then we have a problem in our little community, Don't we?
Ps. He did indeed have a slight changing of personality today. I'm just waiting to see what happens next.

Integration is a crucial aspect of understanding the psychedelic experience and using it as a tool to better your everyday life. For those that do not understand this I feel sorry for you because you are not taking advantage of the possibilities psychedelics offer. The psychedelic experience is far from BS its as real as anything else in this concept of reality we have.

This thread is not interesting enough to read all of it, but I would like to say that it is possible to learn accurate information while on psychedelics (not from them). Decide what's reasonable while sober though and remember that the mind is also capable of creating dreams.

What a shock that ppl can be banned from an eligal drugs discussion forum for saying things in particular instead of Swallowing particular things!
Well all I know of the individual in question is that he put forward the question "what if?"... to my mind its the ones that try to convince us with their "ANSWERS" we should be afraid of and not the ones posing the questions.

Although I don't agree with his opinions, I believe that he could express them a little better. No need to be condescending, negative, judgmental, megalomaniacal, and everything else that he is. With all due respect.
The last thing I said in his thread was: "Just remember. Mescaline is bullshit."
I really wanted to hear his drug-addled response.

That's because it handed his bullshit back to him on a silver platter. He planned on going for a stroll in the desert and to plant a cactus.. sounds like he made it 20 minutes before losing control and having to return home to satisfy his ego by posting on the Shroomery.

Learning from psychedelics doesn't have to be a tangible thing. Change can happen from psychedelics imo. Just because we don't know answers to the universe doesn't mean they cant effect someone.. We expect an answer, a number, a statistic for what someone has learned, well, sometimes one simply can't explain, or it has had an unseen impact. Just my opinion on this.

If the mods banned everybody on the shroomery who acted like a douchebag there would be nobody left on here. Srsly. What did joe do that was SO bad...
It'd be nice if everybody could be all polite and articulate while respecting everyone's point of view, but usually most of us just default to being snarky. It's the internet, get over it.
whatev... I don't really care, it's just a 3 day ban.

JoeMolloy is actually VERY similar to Terence Mckenna (hear me out).
They both take their experiences with psychedelics and act like its the same for everyone else.

I have only been on here for like 2 days. I did some research on this Joe Molloy fellow. He seems like an arrogant bastard who I would love to punch in the face. But your right, the asshole not only has intelligent posts, but he STICKS TO HIS OPINION. He does not flip flop, but he will defend his statements to the death. I will respect anybody who does that, no matter how much I disagree with them.

True he shouldn't have been banned for being a douchebag, but he should have toned it down on other people's posts. He can say whatever the fuck he wants as long as he's not being a fucking asshole to other people on their posts.

Yeah I guessed he must have crossed the fine line between voicing a different opinion and being an asshole troll. Either way though, I am anxious to see his first post when his ban is lifted in three days. Should be intense

I'm intrigued by joemolloys ban! What exactly was he banned for? was it for saying something in particular? Or was it for being generally abusive and troll like? Is there any official statement from mods on this?

I remember seeing that in the '9 gram trip' thread PorcupinesRevenge, thanx for this info . I just read the 'Dear Joe Molly' thread by AbstraKt_I_am.
Gota say Joe's comment hardly even registered on me! didnt seem important and significant at all and I didnt even know who Joe Molloy was when I read it. It just seemed like general rambling by some individual (I find myself doing it too sometimes ) and of zero consequence.
Seems like Joe's pissed off load's of folk here before! I hope he comes back and tries to be nice to ppl and a bit more constructive and positive when his ban's up.
Have to say also that its a bit joemolloy = shroomery superstar right now!!! when am I going to get my 15 minutes?

Are we really having this discussion? In the Psychedelic Experience forum no less. I stated my reasons for issuing the ban in my communication with the affected member. We have a system in place for other members to communicate to staff members when it comes to this issue and I felt it required my attention or I wouldn't have wasted my time taking action.
If you disagree that's fine, but starting a thread, in the wrong forum I might add, does nothing to help the member or change my mind about the action that was taken. We all know what trolling is and it means something different for everyone. Unfortunately I don't have the capabilities to poll the entire community on what they think is trolling and what isn't so it's up to the staff members to decide.
I don't issue bans very often, as I reserve judgment unless I'm getting numerous complaints from other members. That was the case here so more attention was required. This was the result of research done by me and I felt action was appropriate.
Now if you want to carry on about this topic, which for the life of me I can't see why, please do so in the Pub or start a support ticket so an administrator can review it. I think enough has been said on this topic for now.

P.S. I removed the post and its reply posted by a couple of members, as staff member communication between a member is private and is not permitted to be shared in open forum. If you want to know what was said, PM the member directly. This isn't just for staff member communication either, ALL PMs are restricted from being reproduced in open forum, no exceptions.
