In the event that the shroomery is served with a warrant

Will we (the users) be informed if the shroomery is required by law enforcement to give up any information about us?

It's been served with a subpoena or something already, and we were informed. It happened kinda recently and was stickied, I'm kinda surprised you didn't notice it.
It was something relating to a custody battle, I believe. If I remember right, she was trying to get his child taken away by showing that he's a KNOWN USER OF DRUGS 
Also, I read your post before you went anon

Use a vpn, proxy service, or tor to post if possible depending on your level of paranoia. If you use a VPN or proxy service some sort of anonymous payment/service is probably a good idea. This make it harder to link your real identity.
Try to clean up your PMs regularly. This is in the best interest of both you and those you PM.
Use encrypted PMs for any sort of sensitive talk or information or just everything if you want to be awesome. When used correctly this makes your PMs unreadable to site staff and any sort of authority that might be granted access to your PM-box via a subpoena.
Don't store your shroomery login info on your computer and don't keep it in your bookmarks. Use a separate browser which does not retain information for browsing the website. Preferably keep that browser folder/location hidden/not readily accessible.
Don't post too many personal details or details that might allow someone close to you to determine your username here. Best to keep your mouth shut about illegal/questionable around those who could/might have reason to hurt you.
Following those practices a subpoena becomes much less likely and even in the event it does happen you might still keep prying away from things you'd rather they not see. Remember there has only been one so far and it was for a civil case.
I'd encourage any user who is tied up in a legal battle (or personal battle where legal intervention looks eminent) where they suspect their Shroomery account would come up to pay for a name change, edit out any sensitive/incriminating information from old posts, and ditch the account.

Yeah, I just searched "subpoena custody" in the title and body of all main posts, all forums, and got a surprisingly short list-- none of which look anything like what you described.

Yeah, I also just looked back through 11 pages of Ythan's posts (which goes all the way back to last JUNE) and I didn't spot anything.
Anyone got a link, or more of a description with which I might find this, before I go nuts...?

It was geokills who posted the announcement.
