The Dark Side of the Shroomery?

What percentage of Shroomery members would you say are really just high school kids or younger? How about in OTD where very hardcore porn is posted regularly? I post with the assumption that my readers are adults... but who knows?

There are more in the Summer...
All you can do is report them when they slip up, and say their actual age. They will be banned.

I don't even think the Shroomery is real. I saw a documentary once about how the entire internet is a hoax. It's actually 1/72 scale model in someone's basement...

I would say that other than for legal reasons it does not really matter how old you are when you have guys like skunk posting...

Maybe if you were lucky, and your parents were rich, you might also get a stick to play with...

I was really surprised when high school was just ending and a few shroomery members who've been here for a few years came out and said they just graduated and are 18. I bet it happens a lot more than all of us think.

yeah. i think it does happen more than you think. Honestly, when i'm on the shroomery i get the impression that its primarily guys from age 18-25, not to mention a few youngins who are mature enough not to get caught.

I was a kid when i joined... there was no age requirement back then. Note that this was like 7 years ago..
I never asked stupid questions or made dumb posts though like some of the kids these days do.
For some people, it's pretty obvious that they are underage.

I think it's good kind of that kids come on these boards. Some of them actually learn shit and don't end up killing themselves by pulling stupid shit.

Personally, I couldn't agree more. I know I have helped a lot of people over the years with my posts in the Other Drugs Discussion forum. I've been told that I've helped some gain respect for drugs; and to realize just how dangerous some drugs can be; and to be more mature about their consumption. And many other mature posters have done the same.
However, in the current political climate, we have to be very careful...
There are some ameriKans who don't like free speech; who like economic free-markets, but can't handle a free-market of ideas; They are moralistic thugs who rule by fear and intimidation; They are to be feared, and their power respected;
They bought the front row seats at Calvary; They are irrelevant to me...

Other Drugs Discussion gets me more laughs than any forum on these boards. It's precious.

It goes in cycles. Sometimes it's pretty bad, and sometimes it's really good. I don't really know what it's like at the moment. I haven't had much time to check it out much since I've been back...
How you doing?

I heard that the original shroomery was an under 21 deal. Nobody over 20 could join.

I don't know, I don't look for people's ages or presume that they're under or over 18. I just figure that they are, or that they're people and I don't give too much of a shit about their personal information. I doubt anyone's actually ever going to admit to being under 18 though, considering they'd get banned.
