Jesus Christ, you guys. What the fuck is your problems?

Dude clearly made a boatload of mistakes. We all have. Why the vicious attack on Ben? Especially you, Arika. Why the fuck do you care about his past so much? Get a fucking life.

lol, why do you guys keep talking about me years later (according to your search engine and people who keep popping up on my YouTube channel to tell me about it for various reasons, most probably designed to instigate me)?

Seriously, this talk about getting "an asswhoopin" from the regulars on here at the time is hilarious revisionism. While I was hardly at my best then (still having issues with DXM until 2010; when my pancreas forced me to quit permanently), I don't see how people going 'socks for cocks' (thanks to a fucked-up edit) and calling me racial and homophobic epithets makes you guys look any better than me, other than with the libertarian asshole set that laughs at others misfortune (ie the endless "poop in a bucket" jokes). But then, maybe that's all there is here...types who jerk off to Ayn Rand. I hope not but my past experience has proven this to be the rule rather than the exception.

As for other boards, I conduct myself fine on D-F and contribute a hell of a lot more there than I would consider to do here at this point; and am on BL under a different name (not so much there due to the lack of quality control there at times; which is not a problem on D-F; I assure you). But either way the posts from D-F (and in general) read much better than they used to when I was still into DXM.

And no, I'm not living in a basement anymore; still with my gf (who I had just met a few months before my last 'shroomery visit in 2009) and although life can be difficult at times, it could be much worse (see: mid-2000s).

Seriously, I see "Prisoner#1" is still here; he can't be still 'moderating' the political boards with his openly racist views, can he?  If so, that says a lot about how this place didn't change.

So many problems with this place...barely better than the "Fourth Plateau" in terms of trolls; it has to be watering down what little useful info is actually here.

I've stolen from friends and family, was a crack head, did some shit I am really NOT proud of. Why don't you just come at me and leave this dude alone. Go through my posts. There are TONS are posts you can throw back in my face.
He had problems and seems as though he has overcame quite well (all things considered).
You must be a sad, patheric motherfucker to spew so much animosity towards a poster who has had a checkered past.
Grow up.

Ben
Age: 25
Location: Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Addiction: DXM (cough medicine)
What’s Memorable: The psychosis he displays as he walks around the city, the older dude that had a sexual relationship with him and still supports him to some extent, the things this kid could have done with his life.

Official synopsis: Ben, 25, experienced a childhood filled with domestic violence, homelessness and isolation. He never got to fulfill the potential of his 170 I.Q. and found a new way to find comfort when he was in high school–a drug called DXM. Now, Ben spends his days shoplifting, panhandling, and even prostituting himself to finance his drug addiction. Desperate to help Ben, his mother arranges an intervention that’s her last hope for saving his life.
Original Air Date: January 2008

As for this board...threads like these http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/13047058/fpart/1/vc/1 make me not want to really engage in conversation here, even given it was OTD it was still totally fucked up and shows an underbelly here that I don't see on the better (more mature) forums. That and the constant infamy from being that guy on Intervention also shadows me and prejudices others towards me to a certain extent; not that I don't blame them but I do not feel I can be truly effective in such an environment; I don't have that background on D-F (a few folks know who I am, but I went there after stopping DXM use; and just not introducing myself unlike these places, where DXM made me compelled to share with strangers that I would not have in retrospect. (Yes, this includes this place, sad to say for the ones of you that like it but respect me as well; seems like I'd have to ignore over half of the people here just to enjoy being among other folks here.

Seriously, how many folks of color are there here? I gather not that many (less than 5% are "non-white", and that's if you includes the ones with some white in them (25%) like me ). With the bullshit talk that goes on in OTD all day. I suspect you folks wouldn't feel so freely about OTD if it were white folks getting clowned all day by non-whites (in a manner which communicated the same amount of disrespect as calling a black person a n*****, a word whose racial equivalent doesn't exist for a white person, weak asides like "honkey" notwithstanding)?

LOL, that bothers me too much, even if it shouldn't. Shit like that is why I left 4chan. Too much exposure to that racist stuff makes you rather cynical towards all white people (well, even more than possible). Seriously, you guys don't do yourselves any favor by feeding the shroomery's id with that nonsense. Better to close it down (or at least tone down the racism) and let the people who hate the idea move on to some other board that'll put up with their shit. Well, that's if you wanted to attract a higher quality audience instead of the numerous 16-year-olds (or mentally trapped at 16, anyway) who post racist memes that seem to make up half of the current audience. :/

I know he has some major issues, but I'm seeing a side to this community that is putting me off.

He is doing things, too, I know that. I just don't like seeing people throwing his past fuck-ups in his face like this.

It makes me feel bad for him.

Nevermind. You're currently making 90+ posts a day according to your graph. I overstated the obvious.

i don't care about his life. he's been basically exploited and slighted by Intervention and basically shoulda never on a "documentary" like that on TV because... durr... it was a major fuck up.  but he wants to keep pandering a moderator like creating a ruckus, well you're not even supposed to do that with a regular user. he's trying to start bait, like mad crazy, i see why Pris keeps his one sided ways, because you "people" are all so one sided yourselves and you can't see what is even worth posting about. i tried to do a million posts for ya, for you just fucking said no, serious, no offense.

he keeps moderating and doing his thing, and all the shit just goes through the floodgates. i mean, some of you people really don't care much about shit-fuck-all. i mean, people did all this shit for a reason, that's why it's all here. why should people be able to come in here and just start shit for no reason, if they don't want to be a part of how things work around here? maybe if he doesn't like Pris. he should go to Psyche, Spirit, Drugs, Other Drugs, Sex, Health, Money, Anon, whatever else, OTD, THEN maybe Politics. broaden his horizons over Pris, Zimmerman, Mod Scandal, bait threads being bumped from other months ago or some shit, whatever...

you don't see that bullshit!1

Dude, you sound infatuated with Prisoner. Tone that down a little bit, son...he might not want that advertised out there

And seriously, I'm not allowed to talk about Politics because I don't agree with the guy who moderates it? Wow, that makes perfect sense. As does the rest of your post, which doesn't scream "I need Risperdal" or anything like that at all.

seriously, get some sleep; you're obviously tweaking a little more than you care to admit and it's fucking up your writing skills at this point.
