This is a fallacy, and has been gone over repeatedly. Open discussion of suppliers in no way reduces rip-offs, and sometimes even encourages them. Look at Usenet... its VERY common for scam suppliers to go on there and pose as customers to steer people to their site, as well as posting lies about legitimate companies to steer people away from them and into the scammer's arms. This is amazingly common. When supplier discussion is passed by word of mouth, as opposed to being scribbled on the walls of the internet, then chances are you're getting your supplier links from a friend, or at least someone who's opinion you trust. While public discussion of suppliers at best doesn't stop rip-offs and at worst encourages them, keeping these things on a grapevine level goes a long way to prevent rip-offs. Also, preventing rip-offs really doesn't offset the damage of plastering these things all over the world. Drugs DO get scheduled, companies DO get raided, reporters & cops DO read these forums. This forum isn't really here to serve as quality control for the grey market, even if that were an achievable goal - which it isn't.

Actually Thor, I think that guy was asking about somebody in the SE that sells mushrooms or something. The guy was probably a fraud---the mushroom seller, that is. The poster could've been a newbie or he could've been someone here who is afraid of the wrath of Murple. But, his post title did kinda suggest he was trying to start trouble . . .who knows. Oj has a good point about rip offs though.
You want to take the chance of some kid turning you into the cops? Go to one of those other vendors. You want confidentiality, go to: your site here great spores at great prices

This is amazingly common. " ~murlpe. Well murple you forgot that this commuity exist for 4 years so it is easy to realise who is fake and who is not. It is very easy to find it out, and from that minute the person who rips off members is expelled. Contrary, if we disscus aboutit using PM's there is NO chance to realise it. Becase if some let me say Alex reccomends it , and I do not know anything about this guy...but see he is frequent here...and I trust him. Then that supplier fails me, and alex pms me that this s the first time, he heard that something like thata happened. But if there was no CENSOURSHIP, I could easily realise that Alex is bullshiting, and I would not be ripped off. I think my argument is valid one. Prove me I am wrong Ot you Thor. "When supplier discussion is passed by word of mouth, as opposed to being scribbled on the walls of the internet, then chances are you're getting your supplier links from a friend, or at least someone who's opinion you trust. " ~Murple You can realise this is bullshit, by my example above your quote. And imagine that some of those fakes are usually coll community persons. But I will never find it out. Why? Because I will not start flae about his trusted member, cause I think he is good guy and probalby something went wrong. "While public discussion of suppliers at best doesn't stop rip-offs and at worst encourages them, keeping these things on a grapevine level goes a long way to prevent rip-offs. " ~Murple You are completely wrog, as you can notice bynow. You see, if there is no censourship about suppliers, when one or maxmally several persons get ripped off, it is going to be the end for that commpany rip offs in this community. And how do you imagine preventing with censourship? "Also, preventing rip-offs really doesn't offset the damage of plastering these things all over the world. Drugs DO get scheduled, companies DO get raided, reporters & cops DO read these forums. This forum isn't really here to serve as quality control for the grey market, even if that were an achievable goal - which it isn't." ~Murple You aer being egcentricall. You do not think about other members, and benefits for them. You know that lack of censourship would not hurt anybdy here, except your EGO. You Murple tried all those drugs. why do not you let other do the same thing if they want? You know that you only represent interests of well known drug suppliers out here. Not the interest of community. Only thing I do not know is do you do it purpously?
afterall you are all good people sometimes ~Crobih

Ps. Imagine what would happened if spore vedors where forrbiden out here? How would you know who is faker and who is not? It would be much harder then it is now. And those "ripofers" would parasitize our commuity waaaaaaaaay longer then they do it now. And to make things worse, there would be allways some newbie who would be an easy victim. Now this is not possible, only because we can disscuss over suppliers! So, pleeeeeeaaaase let you do a fawour to the community and help us not be easy victims! Who are you protecting Thor? Your ignorance, or some "darker" reason?

In the short time i've been here, I have seen threads locked for good and bad reasons. Mods sometimes appear very heavyhanded. We can get that anywhere. This can never be a serious forum if mods are deciding what can or cannot be said.Last sunday zantac made a very thought provoking post concerning gay bashing among vendors.It would have been interesting to hear from legit vendors as to where they stand on this issue. Despite there being no flame arguments or chemical suppliers being listed, this thread was locked.....censorship-period!! If you want to be heavy handed, go pull the wings off some fly.....STAY THE HELL OUT OF MY CONVERSATIONS
