Don't grow and trade at the same time.

Seems like a simple intuitive rule but I thought I would bring it up anyway. If you have anything to hide more than just a little weed and a few pipes don't be giving out your address (unless you have a safe address) If you ever give out an unsafe address, you should never ever talk about growing. Ever.
Trading is the greatest Shroomery specific security hole that exists. As far as we know, only one person has ever been busted because of his presence at the shroomery, that was GanjaShroom. He got taken down when Dimitri was arrested for an outstanding warrant for cultivation of Marijuana. He had given Dimitri his real address and it had his Shroomery name "GanjaShroom" written next to it. The cops assumed he was a dealer of weed and mushrooms, so they alerted the local police in his town, and they came and searched his place.
Which reminds me, never give a vendor your Shroomery name. There's just no reason for it. Try to keep your real Identity, and your Shroomery identity separate at all times.
Do not use your regular email address. Get a separate one.
Giving out your address is the most dangerous thing you can do here on this website. If you do it you are playing a whole different game.

Here's a quick trick for if you need a one-time email address.
Make any legal address up @mailinator.com
If you want to be XYZABC@mailinator.com, you can be. There is zero security at mailinator, but if you use a moderately obscure email address nobody will know to look for it. Also, you can't send any email from there. They only accept text and HTML under 100K, and strip all attachments. You don't sign up, they'll accept any legal email address. Also, they only keep received emails for a few hours. Everything is deleted after a few hours.
But if you need a quick disposable email, there it is.
Also handy for misdirecting spam.
Here's a link:

very good info here, something you might not think of

I looooove hushmail.com
its free, they're very security conscious, and between fellow members, there is good encryption.

Hitler, that's an interesting story and IMO the moral of that story is to encrypt all sensitive data on the PC.
Now that won't save one from a local bust as the cops will have you in the bag, but it will stop the LEO drag-net on all your TCP/IP associate details on your 'puter. Bad enough to get nicked, but unforgivable to get other folks busted through your own screwup.

doing a trade where the spores are being sent to the grow location is about the stupidest thing you could do .

Right next to giving a correct return address when sending spores from the grow location.

Trading is good if you're careful and so is the other guy...which means know the other guy online for a long time. Do your own homework. It can save you money and get you the results. It's no more risk than a vendor because there's always customs/quarantine.
But I'd have to say over seas posting simply isn't worth the customs risk if it means a parcel. Go envelopes to avoid that if the payload can fit in an envelope like prints & small seeds. Use PGP to discuss stuff in private. Never keep any addy on the PC unless encrypted.

Just be sure to include a note reminding that they are for microscopy purposes only and that they should not grow illegal mushrooms.

I dont think anyone mentioned this but dont save addresses of traders! if you're sending someone a freebie or whatever the case...let it be a one time thing. Dont save it thinking one day you'll go to this guys house and get a warm welcome or he hooked you up with more stuff so *one day* you're going to repay him the favor and send him freebies- Forget all that. Throw them away!
If you need their address, get it when you need it and PGP your data on your computer like Starter said. Be smart, be safe, and think your grow through. my 02. peace

this is all great info,
/me wishes this advice was at the vendors forum, before he bought spores.
well, I am safe since I only use it for microscopy uses. 
once again, great advice, everyone should read this before posting here.
