This is not active mushrooms it's a Hypholoma species and microscopy is needed to determine the exact species because they are separated by spore size.

gotta say, i'm a little disappointed with this site, I thought I would get a bunch of shoomers that could identify a common mushroom, kind of a waste of time and effort getting video, picture, spore prints.

If you are complaining about people not answering your latest question (as quoted above), I can say the reason for this is obvious - the answer is already provided in lots of resources on the internet, and it is really easier for you to google it than wait for a second hand answer. A typical question - "is it edible?" - will 9 out of 10 be answered in an online description of a species. We've made a substantial effort to try and identify your find from your provided information and picture, and it is likely Hypholoma lateritium. I don't want to sound condescending here, but a quick google search will provide you with an answer, we have basically no obligation to "spoon feed" people with easily accessible information.
This forum is made up of volunteers, people who share a common hobby. It's our spare time, and not like any of us are employed. People will do their best to identify posted requests, and to be honest I think there is a fairly good coverage of them here, and a generally high level of knowledge about mushrooms and how to treat them. I see people all the time posting images of mushrooms on reddit, instagram, facebook and other media, and very often the replies are ignorant at best, but in quite a few cases even dangerous - like people posting requests for what are likely toxic species, and other people with absolutely no clue are encouraging them to eat said mushrooms. That happens very, very rarely on the Shroomery's MH&I forum.
Remember, this site is an available resource that basically functions based on the efforts of numerous people, that includes you as well. Feel free to harvest of the knowledge here, but it also requires some effort from you as well. If you're not willing to put up a little effort (a minimal one in this particular case, if I may be so free) - then I can't really promise satisfactory results.
None of us can do all the work for you, but will in all honesty and with high enthusiasm try to help guide you on your way.
Anyway, here are some online resources that might be helpful for you in the future:

http://www.mushroomobserver.org

Remember, patence and diligence is necessary in all things mycology.

Yeah I had a video of these on youtube once but never found out what they were, but they weren't active. The ones I found had even almost melted into the grass around the caps. I've been deleted it though

I came across some small ones. They were growing on the edge of some tall grass, near clovers.Any idea what these are?
-------------------- Hey All, I happened across this site while trying to identify a mushroom in my backyard. Since then it has sparked an interest in all things Mushrooms. Especially local varieties. I live in Central FL. If any of you would like to connect please message/email me. If you are local(Orlando area) maybe we can meet and go on a hunt. Thanks,
