There was a golden age of forums there for a while, before the scourge we know as social media became. I kinda miss those days. Forums were a lot cooler, the friends were more real, everything was lease connected. Boards were like homes and other members became family. Almost all of the forums I used to frequent are either dead or dying. Not many have survived the FB machine and those that have are just a shadow of their former selves.

That reminds me, I also think there's many, many people under the influence of various substances posting here. Has always been that way. The least I do is smoke and shitpost, but if I'm tripping I'm miles away from electronics.
But yeh, I think that could be mistaken for mental illness. There are certainly a few nutters, though. Seems appropriate.

Sorry you feel that way. I catch myself lamenting about the past sometimes, too.
One thing I forget sometimes is this place has a vast selection of topics. If you lurk in another forum briefly, there's a completely different atmosphere.
Part of the issue is places like S&R and P&Mental forums are crickets, everyone then flocks to the pub because at least what you write will get a response here. And it gets convoluted. I have no idea what I'm saying, but try posting in a more 'meaningful' forum, like within this site.
Makes me sad you feel that way, some of the people here are closer than rl friends. Others feel like family to me. Ya gotta open up more to form those relationships, just like rl.
Just peeked at similar threads, this is from 04' - 'Anyone notice the declines of quality and intelligent posts around here?' It's a thing, it's been like this. Start posting more quality posts and encourage others to do the same, I always generally agree when I see you post, sometimes you even get a rl head nod! Appreciate you being here, never seen one shitpost from ya, actually.

Shroomery is what it is. Nothing needs to be "redeemed". Interesting how it morphs over time to me.

Thanks man, that's very kind.
I don't really lament about the past, more reminisce. Good old days sort of thing. I do have some pretty solid friends on here, but I'm older now, less tolerant, maybe even more judgemental. Monkeys are monkeys after all and maybe I'm a little old for monkey business. That said I was part of a great forum that was mostly oldies, man I loved that place. Owner left the place rudderless and went to do whatever assholes do and it got hacked and spammed to death. My other favourite forum from way back got absorbed by FB and now has about 15 visitors a day, dead. Other one still is going well but I don't trip that hard anymore nor do so many extractions, guess that one is on me. Things just changed all around.
Hit me up on keybase if you have it though mate. My username is illogicalerror.

Overgrow was an awesome forum till the mounties seized it, but even there the politics forum was absolute madness, full of conspiracy theories and alt types. Drug forums are always going to have them, the very act of defying societal norms, by producing and consuming illicit substances, is why they are on those forums, it makes perfect sense that they subscribe to political and social theories outside the norm.
