The response to this let it all out. especially when Wiccan faked his drunken stupor "Are you farging for real? Is this Ythan and co or is this some bullshit april fools joke?"
"My friend, I can understand your skepticism but do please watch your language. April Fool's day began with the introduction of the Gregorian Calendar, when 'fools' were unaware of the change in date. The symbolic meaning couldn't be more clear. The Gregorian Calendar, centered on the birth of Our Savior, represents a holy trinity. Religion, science and art. Birth, death, and resurrection. Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. To make light of this sacred symbol is to defile it, and I will take no part in such vulgar actions. This auction is legitimate, all the administrators who matter are on board and there is no reason to assume it will not proceed to its conclusion."
I had it then sooo.... "Are ye not afeared of incurring the wrath of the Almighty Creator? Are ye not aware of the passage which cleanses ALL meat for man's consumption, yea even unto the meat of the lowly fungi? Yea the are too soon converted to be interpreting scripture lest ye realize the folly of thine endeavor. Dost thou take American Express?"
To which I recieved
 "Although today we may use the word 'meat' colloquially to refer to the body of a mushroom, this was not always so. Most notably, in ancient Hebrew there was a clear distinction. It is only through numerous translations and reinterpretations that The Bible could be said to bless this most putrid of all creatures, the mushroom. It is with the greatest humility in my heart that I beg our Lord Almighty for forgiveness if I misinterpret His word. I am still an empty pitcher, just starting to be filled. But I have prayed about this and asked for guidance, and I know in my heart that I am doing what is right. And God has also instructed me that it is right to accept all major credit cards, to allow for convenient financing."
What a crock of  WR

It's funny how people on other sites seem to get so pissed, but then again, half those people are bitter ex-memebrs here, so it sorta makes sense. It's april fools for crying out load, come on, lighten up a lil! You really thought ythan would sell the shroomery?!? Must not know him very well then, he said he found god on 12 Gs of shrooms, he doesn't even shroom (anymore)! Come on, the best characters in the community were pranksters .

yea? fuck you. It might be funny for someone who uses this place as a social club (thanks for the eye opener). It sure as hell wasn't funny to the people who rake in pounds in dry weight. catch my drift?...especially the whole authority business.
shroomery is nothing but drama. april fools or not, that joke hit me below the belt. here is a hilarious prank...how about i drop quarter of a gram of liquid LSD in your coffee while you are not looking. ooops. april fools, bitch. ..what youre in shock?...  ..or you can play a good one on the bomb squad, call and tell them someone is about to blow up the county jail...april fools!
fuck you guys. a hardcore cultivator should never get close to this drama scene.

i suggest you change your name - unfortunately balls_as_a_chinrest has already been taken, but shat_my_pants is still available. anyone 'raking in pounds in dry weight' (i assume you're discussing shiitake), is i hope not doing it from a traceable address linked to their IP address, because growing shiitake is illegal in some places.
good wake-up call, huh? you gotta be able to laugh now, shirley? breathe. breathe. you're safe now, it's ok

Maybe you shouldn't be raking in pounds of dry weight if you aren't even smart enough to catch a fucking April Fools joke.

I get your point, but I think you should trust the admins a bit more if you post sensitive information here.
The admins do care about the safety of all users and they would never sell the Shroomery if that would get people into serious trouble.

That's alright...thankfully, technologies exist that allow you to connect to the internet through outher countires.  ...I have never admitted to doing anything illegal. A grow log with pictures will never be enough for a warrant. A grow log traceable to an IP will never be enough for a warrant.
I am just severely pissed off at the fact that all you mods and admins actually thought this was funny. I and a lot of others did not. I don't see the point of arguing this matter....just like one smart person said...youre all sheep following the shepherd. You already lost a number of people who contributed greatly to this community, and it will keep happening. Again, this was a foolish april fools joke. Flame me, change my name to something immature..whatever. screw all of you, really.

Plutonium, I hate to break it to you but there *is* no privacy.
Everything that is not encrypted is recorded and stored. In fact, it's not just Echelon but *you* sir can browse through 55.000.000.000 webpages that was the Internet since 1996
Every time it passes the Shroomery all the new posts are assimilated into the borg cube that is Google. Google even launched a new ware "for prtofessionals only" this month that alklows you to search the *protected content* of the Internet. I don't know how deep that particular rabbithole goes, but they're hacking onto the entire internet and offer it to paying customers!
So even by selling the Shroomery to the DEA they learn nothing what they don't already know. They file all the posts and all the PM's and maybe they can decrypt too.
If it wasn't funny, it better be a wake-up call. In the mid-1990s the Internet was like the Wild West. In the mid-2000s, where we live today, its more tapped than Soviet East Germany ever could be.
Take good care of your shiitakes! Whatever you do on the internet, whether you think its private (email) or public (posting) The Man is listening in all the time.
I'll apologize for my part in this if it makes you feel better, but you were never in any more risk than you are every day of the week.

"Again, this was a foolish april fools joke."
So that would be like, a compliment then...?
I'm sorry if your lifestyle choices have you living in a permanent state of paranoia. I'm not going to argue that it was the most clever or original prank in the world, but it certainly wasn't mean-spirited. Do you get pissed off at fuzzy bunnies too?
