How does the shroomery compare to other drug forums?

Are there any other good psychedelically inclined forums out there worth being a part of and how does the shroomery stack up to such forums in terms of activity?

They're all about the same. Some are more focused on the science and chemistry, some are more focused on the community and lifestyle. This forum would be the latter.
I know of drug forums where you have to wait weeks to get a reply. This site is definitely more active, but its flooded with shenanigans.

It's significantly less stupid than Grasscity, that's for sure. Grasscity isn't really psychedelic-oriented, but I see it as the weed-equivalent of the Shroomery. At least in terms of popularity.
That place is overrun with underage people. But the fact that it's mostly just thousands of stoners talking about inane stuff all day is the real irritation.

there's drugs forum, which has a wealth of good information for pretty much every drug or category of drugs as well as other drug stuff like laws and chemistry. but like walrus said it's not nearly as active and you can wait weeks for a reply in a lot of the subforums.
what about erowid? erowid is the shit.

grasscity was a fucking joke. you get banned just for mentioning other drugs, and no members make it past a couple thousand posts cuz they have this system where u get ban points and after u get so many you get permabanned, which eventually happens to everyone, even the good members. that place was alright when they had pandoras box but once that ended, all the good members left or eventually got banned. i post on another forum thats extremely inactive called pandoras box for people who posted on GC and liked other drugs. that place is alright, just very inactive
nowadays that site is FULL of high schoolers and noobs to weed. pretty much everyone on the shroomery is WAY past that kid shit. at the end i only posted in the music section then just gave up on that site
shroomery is legit tho, most people know what theyre talking about, we have members who seriously know their shit and its a good community here. based on my previous experiences shroomery really is the best. im not here JUST for drug talk and knowledge, im here cuz its a good community. idk how many forums this big have people who are friends IRL that u met on the internet. or have actual gatherings. ive only met 2 people here but i plan on making it more than that, im just so bad at meeting people at festivals lol, too fucked up
like out of all the forums i post on, the shroomery is the only one i get pissed off when i get banned from it

Shroomery has a constant influx of new posters because of the mushroom cultivation aspect. Forums come and go because they can't keep replacing the users lost over time. BL is a pretty good source of info on newer RCs, opiophile is a good source on opioids, shroomery is good for mushroom and psychedelic related information. All are good sources for general drug information as well.

Bluelight is pretty cool too it just kinda seems like they over-analyze everything

I like the Shroomery cause your usually guaranteed a response. It's just so immensely populated. But I just found a new favorite site called DMT-Nexus. I really respect the community there. The only problem with the forum is you actually have to earn good attitude points before you can even post in most of the forum lol They are really strict about their screening process.

Well the saving grace is do to their good image, you sort of naturally want to participate in only intellectual or constructive conversation there so you shouldn't have too much trouble. Everyone is really easy going. They are mostly just trying to screen out jerks. I usually just hang out on the chat.

That place has a really stupid rule regarding basically no real synthesis discussion. Good source of information for things DMT extraction related though.

Yeah don't ever say you bought or sold DMT on there or it's insta ban. It's a good site for what it is though. I stopped posting on the weed sites because there are to many weed only people or natural drugs only. I like LSD and other than blue light I haven't found many places where its as popular as it is here. Also I like active forums. Isn't there another shroom site like mycotopia or something?
