Biggest group think forums at the shroomery?
    #19216491 - 12/02/13 09:48 AM (10 years, 2 months ago)

I'm wondering which forum, if any, you think has the biggest group think mentality?

Rant:

Personally I think the Mush Cult is fucking deluded. Probably just because I get ban from there and everyone repeats the same misinformation all the time as if it was a fact, and disagreeing is looked down upon. Anyways, I just wanted to vent that. Thanks.

Here is a perfect example of incorrect definitions:
http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/19216373

I mean, why wouldn't you use the proper definitions?

When I was a noob here I would have probably said it is this place, but it really isn't so bad once you get used to the rules.

There's more than one way to grow shrooms. But like with computer operating systems, cultivators seem to form into competing camps with a zeal that borders on religion. I don't get it.

2) You can't have an abortion no matter how much you don't want a child.
3) You can't have a certain plant in your possession or you'll get locked up with a rapist and a murderer.

4) We need a smaller, less-intrusive government.

I think it probably has to do with the whole image thing that Icelander brought up in the other thread:

Quote:


that most subjects that humans deal with, in the sense of discussions or actions aimed at working them out or resolving them mostly act on the surface of the issue, ignoring the core of the matter and so purposely, however possibly unconsciously, obfuscating the matter so as not to ever resolve it.  :wink:

OP =^quote for eternal divine truth 100x.

the level of misinfo, that passes for standard is appalling.
i suspect 60% still believe in spontaneous germination,
a good portion think PC is a tool of the devil, and any animal waste, becomes magical......

its really quite bizzare,
you can publish hundreds of pics, and they will act like they dont exist.

and most of all, anyone with a spore syringe,
and a turd, is an instant PHD mycololgist.

growers with months experience, ROUTINELY attack,
growers with decades of experience.

when the posers get called out, they resort to personal attacks.
psuedo growers promote boycotts, to silence those that expose their hackery.
no sense improving skill, ignore those who point out quackery instead.


health and saftey standards are appalling , and a joke ususally.

equipment not available in 1880 , is considered " witchcraft"

its high 5's , all around, if someone slings a lucky shit bucket,
and, anything short of violence, for anyone who lab grows a reliable and bio safe crop.

misogyny , in mush cult, is an absolute cornerstone.


im routinely shocked, with how mods allow absolute off topic posts, and how they will overlook misinfo thats rampant.

one mod , banned me , for simply outgrowing him with exotics,
and calling out his failure with the same species!
( make sure ya can actually grow something, before ya tell someone, who actually DOES grow it , how to do it)
its the pinnacle of hubris, to instruct someone who exceeds you.
shows a poor character, and  sad leadership.

even confessed sock puppets
KNOWN for lack of skill, are allowed to attack anyone on threads.

even some with TC status, admit to filthy grows,
and essentially zero bio training.

noobs who think $5 is way to much to spend on a grow,
assaulting people for buying a PC , or real equip is a STANDARD.

much cult has value as a forum,
but the dogma, bias, trollery, and amatuers with big mouths,
cheapen us all.

fact is, we can allow the lowest growers to rule,
or we can encourage a high standard and excellence.

You realize it is that way because of RR?

I would like to see him step out from behind his mod tag and actually try to defend the definition that the shroomery is using for sterilization, without being able to ban me for disagreeing. But I doubt that would happen.

I think it's the entire forum. It's split off into different sub boards to please people who don't want to argue with one another. There may be exceptions, but look at the S&M and the PSP. I think for the most part that the two boards have a huge group mentality. We aren't any different. :shrug: So I guess, to answer the question, while I think it's the entire board, I think the PSP and the S&M are pretty equal in their group mentalities.

I agree to an extent, but the mentality is more of a chosen one, rather than a spoon /force fed one.

There are many non-materialist/physicalist that post here, and are allowed to post here and disagree with materialism all they want, even if the mods are mostly materialist's.

IE; You won't get banned for disagreeing with a mod here, or in S and M.

I argue with the mods here all the time from the methodological naturalist perspective.

fastest way to get banned in mush cult, expose a hack,
then defend yourself against their distorted attacks.

they immediately cry to their fave biased mod,
as you would expect any quack.

last thing they would ever do, is argue fairly.
they cant, it would expose their skill levels.

Like the saying: "sheep of a feather flock together."

People are generally more comfortable talking about their ideologies with people with similar ideologies, so they will go where those ideologies are present.

whats funny is, some of the boldest abusers, will attack on a thread with absolute gibberish, in the most authoritive way........

then ya see em in a thread saying,
" um i steamed my PF tek, whats mycelium look like?

ive literally seen this happen,
with 2 threads on the same board, next to each other.
( so what are they, pro with amnesia? or big mouthed poser?)

as said,
aim a syringe at a turd, and become a PHD mycologist instantly.

"frankly",
any fool who can get a shit tub rolling a flush before the trich out, is a total authority.

I guess the same shit happened to you huh?

They aren't practicing science at all, they are just practicing mushroom growing and baiting noobs into posting incriminating evidence against themselves to get busted.

That place has to be swarming with cops, imo.

I don't know how many grow logs result in the user never being seen from again after a few months of posting it.

not sure i would go that far,
but  actual science is trifling to most of em.

its obvious, they misinform noobs by design.
im certain some, fear a real grow, as it would affect their egos.

It seems too coincidental that they all happen to be on the same page, like they are working as a team. I don't know it for a fact, but I definitely have my suspicions.

If you notice, one guy starts in, then the same guys back him up everytime, usually begging for pics, or coaxing pics.

It's social engineering, something cops are trained to be great at.

oh , you mean when pseudo growers pile on?

ya , combine pseudo growers with sock puppets,
and some biased mods, and walla " mush cult".

thank gawd, good growers will fly wing sometimes,
otherwise the fools would totally own mushcult.

of course, when good growers, form allegiences,
to fend off trolls, its something BAD.

perfectly OK for a known sock puppet to collude with anyone though.

new growers , arent informed , and they are nervous.
so they are vulnerable, and want to be a part of the community.
its heartwarming.

the pseudo growers, are on em like pimps at the LA bus station.
'come with us, well make ya  PHD shit bucket mycologist, instantly!'

its concern for your welfare.
never has anything to do with their poser hack empire.

imitate us, but dont exceed us.
its the recipe, for the lowest growers, to gain status.
and ,its why they operate as they do.

a race to the bottom, reduces us all.
