I wanted to leave the pub

But I like it here , enjoy everybody here

This place gives me good ideas and it makes me more creative

I'm happy that I can be myself here

It makes me laugh

It shows me a slightly different side of myself

A side most will never know

It's not all a big day vs night difference but I dont joke with people out there

Even if sometimes someone messes with you

if they do mean it

I wouldn't take it so personal

All of the people who dont care for me so much

I've grown to really appreciate them

if they never came around again I would probably get sad

I looked it up and the first entry is positive and has 3863 thumbs ups and 153 thumbs downs. The negative one has 47 thumbs ups and 3561 thumbs downs. Both were added prior to the 2010s.

Another thing that really hurt forums was when photobucket hijacked everyones photos. Years and years worth of glogs, photo tutorials ect where broken and unviewable. I believe eventually photobucket changed the settings so the pics were viewable again but for a good few months a lot of sites were basically crippled

Hm, those numbers are extremely suspicious haha. I didn't even know there was a thumb system, it's just what came up when I googled it

Forums are more of a "on the internet" type thing. Being "on the internet" is a sitting in front of a PC/Laptop thing. Yes, most people with phones don't open up a web browser and start going to all their sites. If there's a site they were gonna use it, it's probably already an app. Forums are such a niche thing that if you're a part of the niche, you're also a person that uses a PC/Laptop to be "on the internet".

If you're following a link somewhere on your phone, it was probably found on a website like Facebook.. Instagram, etc. That's like the jumping off point for phone users.

Hopefully what I'm saying makes sense. It's just that there aren't as many Desktop/laptop internet surfers these days in comparison to the amount of "cellphone surfers". I'm glued to my PC 12+ hours a day, and will go several days without even touching my phone so I don't really fit into that niche. ".com" anything is dying, because everyone is using apps now.



Its funny you say that cos I have been on mobile since registering lmao. I am mobile exclusive, I even had to have asante change my profile pic for me once hahaha

If making a mobile friendly version of the shroomery through a service like taptalk is limited to the issue of the shroomery using a custom CMS, I think there is definitely some options out there which dont require a rework of the shroomery architecture.

I just inspected some of the requests sent back when you load a page, and I think it would be entirely possible to have an "alternative" frontend for the shroomery that is usable by something like taptalk, which simply proxies requests to the main shroomery website, or backend.

If shroomery admins don't have the time for something like this that's understandable, but perhaps community members could help out? I've got a lot of time on my hands and would be more than happy to help. I do a fuck ton of backend service development but very little frontend work.

This is my second Shroomery account as I lost the password and recovery email (after a hiatus I forgot email and forum passwords) to my first one. But I have been visiting this site for well over ten years. I don't have facebook, don't use insta or have a reddit account. I'll never stop using these kids of sites. The internet for sure is changing but that doesn't mean this format is finished. The fact it's still here is evidence of that. I'd never put any psychedelic content on social media, this is our home.

Ditched social media years ago and never looked back. Oh the amount of free time I gained... Also, my private messages aren’t being sold for marketing purposes :nono:

Ironically people have been saying this for years. Maybe people just have greater expectations of forums now super giant social media like FB and Reddit exist?  :shrug:

There used to be that many actual members just in the pub at once with 3x as many guests. Dying and dead arent the same thing. It's a slow death

Ladies and Gentlemen, I now present to you... THE OFFICIAL DEXTER TRIPPING PLAYLIST!

My Tripping Playlist

Many centuries ago, there existed a formation of man. This version of us was of great power and great enlightenment. There came an evil presence known as the Babylonians. They are said to have reconfigured our DNA to make the majority of it void. This has encapsulated us in our limited, selfish ways. To seek truth we must tune our minds to the right frequency and only then we will truly know what to do.

Times have changed, people are on a different frequency and the generation has rolled over to the little bastards that came after the people active during ‘the heyday’...

A lot of shit has been pumped into our brains via tv, internet news etc and we’re in a different beat of reality.  Facebook etc is immediate narcissistic gratification and exercise of self importance.  People’s heads are to big for anon forums where they don’t get direct immediate credit for their brags..

Real talk :tinfoil:
