All right McMan, you want to talk about security issues? Since your running around dictating to everyone here even the mod's how things should be run and trying to act like some hero trying to save everyone and the shroomery because I post pics in the cultivation board. Everytime I get to these threads where your rambling on about this issue it is already closed.
McMan says "I will still be here waiting to address
the real issue of your reckless business tactics that threaten this board's existence. "
amongts a whole lot of other shit he slung at me. I just dont have time or the desire to read through all of your long winded essays. Quite frankly I'm amazed your wife lets you waste all of this time here instead of being with her and your kids.
Pictures have been posted here on these boards for many years without any trouble. Why, well there are many reasons why. One of them is this board is protected under freedom of speech. As long as The Shroomery does not start advertising they are selling mushrooms or any other illegal drug, this board is protected. There are hundereds of other BB's out there just like The Shroomery for other natural and chemical drugs that also post pictures. They to exist without problems.
Every member here is safe as long as they do not set up drug deals. Then you risk running into an undercover narc posing to make a buy. The Shroomery has long stood on immediatly closing any thread that had to do with buy/selling anything illegal.
So do you really think the DEA or any other agency can come bust any members for posting pictures here?
Who are those members, in real life? Who is McMan, the guy or girl theat just posted a bunch of pics in the cultivation forum a month ago of some nice big cubensis growing from his MC? Were those even really cubensis? HOw do we know this guy McMan is not lying about what kind of mushrooms they are.
Hypothetical situation:
McMan can post he is a mushroom and acid dealing pusher. His real name is:
John Smith
23498 ImaLamma St
Weinersville, Ma.
83445
Anybody that wants drugs stop on by.
Does that really mean that McMan is John Smith from that address and is selling drugs? How do we know he is not lying? How does the DEA/FBI know he is telling the truth? They dont. They have to have substantial evidence to run before a judge to get the warrant. McMan could be making this up because his wife is screwing a neighbor because mcman doesn't pay much attention to her anymore.To much wasted time dictating to ppl on the shroomery, so she went elsewhere for attention. Now McMan wants revenge. If the DEA goes and starts busting down doors only to find some middle aged single dude, or even worse, a family man, with only a few Corona's in the fridge, well, they just opened them self up to one big lawsuit and a lot of negative publicity. If law enforcement agencies start making a lot of these mistakes, they are not given warrents anymore with out some real hard evidence.
If they went around trying get all the names from spore vendor customers, or all the names from members here and went around kicking in doors to see if they were growing mushrooms. How many of those houses do you think they would actually get right and find something illegal? Now what about all the ppl they were wrong on.
The ppl that moved, or using friends/family addies to get spores, or friends computers to post pictures or order spores .... etc... etc... So they just screwed up and busted down many of the wrong doors... lawsuit after lawsuit, media coverage.... what a mess. All those lawsuits. Do you really think they are going to get many more warrants after that or even funding for all their cop toys and programs when they just made such a big public embaressment for shady investigative work. They would lose so much respect in the publics eye... what a mess. I almost wish it would happen, but they are smater then that to use such reclkless tactics.
Think about it.
So your worried about me posting pictures here? What about all the other members that post pictures here?
Who am I? Who is Ryche Hawk? Who are all these other members? 3DShroom just told us in another thread that members IP's logging into the BB can not be tracked. Even if they could Alien mentioned proxies could be used to mask an IP. So how the fuck do you think any law enforement agency could pinpoint anybodies login in. And if they did, what proof is there of who was actually on the computer doing the posting?
Besides, they are just pictures. Pictures of mushrooms, and what kind of mushrooms? There was a court case pointed out here a while back where a professor of mycology could not positivly identify the mushrooms from just a picture. The defendant won the case.
And even if I or anyone else says they are cubensis, how does the DEA know we are not lying. How do they know they were even grown in the U.S. ? They dont unless you sit down and blab your mouth and admit to everyone before a cop.
Eveyone take note of this, dont admit to anything. Make them do their legg work and try and prove you guilty. If you open your mouth and tell them yes I was growing illegal mushrooms etc... then you just made their job much easier to put you in jail.
These pictures are also protected by what, Freedom of the Press perhaps? Look how many years High Times and Cannabis Culture have been around and posting pictures of marijuana, mushrooms, and many other "soft drugs". They still exist. And even new magazines in this counter culture continue to pop up. I dont see the cops busting down High Times doors because they published pictures of marijuana or mushrooms. Why is the Shroomery any different?
Now moving on, McMan, in our koh samui thread a while back, and another thread, you rambled on and on trying to be a hero over these security issues about our THE DB KITS being highly illegal and a danger to the boards etc... blah blah blah....
Saying how the kit is purly for cultivation of illegal mushrooms etc....
Yet, while you were busy spouting off your big mouth, you had not even looked at our website about our kits. We dont sell the spores with the kit nor directions or pictures on how to use it. The key thing, no spores with the kits.
Yet, Homestead, with their full page add in High Times for 10+ years now has distributed a mushroom compost kit with EVERYTHING needed, compost, spores, directions on how to grow, agar, all of it.
10+ years they have been doing this. Dont you think the DEA would have shut them down by now?
Why dont you go bark up their tree with your hero and dictator antics and hassle them about their "reckless business antics"
While we are at it, how about PF. He has been sending spores and a PF TEK book that describes everything, with pictures, on how to grow illegal mushrooms for 10+ years as well.
Are these reckless business tactics too... or is it just ME posting pics in the culitvation section that gets your panties in a bunch McMan.
And what about spores being sent to CA. Workman has been on here posting he sends to CA. So does Max, and PF has posted many times he sends there. Other vendors as well. Many members have posted they have received spores from these other vendors. I have never made an official statment on this. Rumors spread we send for $50 cash orders, no paper trails. Personally I wish CA residents would not order from me. The $50 minimum prevents most of them from ordering from us. Anyway, once again you only seem to jump on me over this. Not the other vendors.
And as for other vendors, I dont attack or talk shit about any of them except PF. And that is only if he attacks me first. Its no secret we have a had our battles, but its been quiet between us for a long time as it should be.
McMan, you seem to have a real hard on for me. You say you dont have any motives.
I think you do have 2 motives. One your MC chamber failed where our THE DB KITS took off and are doing good. Your just jealous of me and our kits so you attack them.
And 2, this is only speculation at this point. But I think your working on starting a spore business yourself.
A while back you posted some pictures of some nice looking mushroom flushes on wheat straw, and made the statement they would be going to my competitor (no joke) you put.
I wouldn't be surprised at all if your pics and spores from you start showing up on a new, or already established spore vendor site. So you busy attacking me right now trying to destroy my reputation.
Only time will tell, but you did make that comment "your pictures would be going to my competitor (no joke)" If its true, you will be back under a different name since you already stirred up to much controversy with your McMan and Cosmo names.
As for 12blate, I did some research on his post. 160 of them, most of them were in praise of us. I also found praise for other vendors as well.
We have a lot of customers that give us praise quite often, or have a link to our website in their sig, or some of them that stand up for us againts troll attacks while I'm gone. And I appreciate that immensly.
I also found where he attacked you and called you a "waste of talant" and "a dictator" as many have been calling you a dicator around here lately. It looks he stepped on your toes and got you all wound up.
So go on the attack once again againts me. And also you threaten and attack the mods.
He is right, you a are a waste of talant. For having so much knowledge of cultivation, how much are you really helping us when you seem more interesting in destroying my name?
You have wasted a lot of my time with this previous bullshit. The security issues I would have gladly talked to you about had you not gone on the "McMan is our hero" approach.
You keep writing all these long essays ... and then say your leaving for good. So go already, nobody is stopping you. If your not happy around here leave. If you think its so unsafe, what the hell are you doing posting pictures of mushrooms with your hands and fingerprints in the pictures? You come on attacking myself and mods', then come back later like some nice guy just trying to save us all from me. If your on the rampage to make this counter culture business more safe for us all, then why dont you distribute some of that energy to the other vendors. But I think most of us are tired of hearing your dictatorship.
That is all I have for now. At least until I post some pictures later in honor of you McMan.
-Peace-
