Seems alot of people are getting busted lately. Especially associated with this website over the last 6 months.
Does that worry anyone else?

I dont think there is a security issue per say and I am definately not trying to scare anyone. Maybe it is just because we have so many people online.
I have been on this site for a long time though and I dont ever remember it being like this. Maybe its just the bowl I just smoked too though

I don't think it has anything to do with the shroomery as much as it does just random shitty luck.
I doubt any admissions of personal use would merit any big investigations and anyone who would talk about any type of opperation they've got goin on is an idiot. That being said... they'd get busted for being an idiot localy more so than on a website. (yeah people get busted on websites but noone here is out and open with any dealings)

It could also be that law enforcement is also just much more tougher on people than it was a few years ago.
That is the scariest thought to me.

I would just say,"never say anything to incriminate yourself."
If you grow a lottt then make puppets, Ythan is cool with that. Common sense is a real big factor as well.
Are you on anonymous proxy list? SHOULD I BE?
speaking of smoking pot, I am off to roll one up. I will respond upon my return. Fuck The Police

I would be very surprised if there was any correlation to the shroomery. A more likely trend, I think, is that as people are seeing posts about people getting in trouble, when it happens to them, the shroomery becomes a place they think of to go for some advice. Just my theory.

Yes, I'd agree that it's purely chance. I mean, there are thousands on this site.

I know people with the same problems, I know a few people that are in Jail and some about to go to jail. I used to work with a few of them. It is all about being careful and watching your back. Life is that way, I have had my share of problems in the recent past myself, I am glad I am almost off of probation after 18 months of it.

True it could just be a statistical freak accident too. Anyway Just thought I would post about it.
Stay safe everyone. I hate seeing people in trouble.

you can enjoy freedom and mushrooms, you just have to be smart and eliminate risks as much as possible. sometimes this means spending a little more, waiting a little longer, things people hate to do... but its an unfortunate circumstance we have to face for the time being.
if you want to move things in the opposite direction, write to your representatives and tell them you support resuming more research involving psychedelics... make a donation to MAPS... educate yourself and your friends... its the small steps that can eventually lead to big changes.

Bobo, stepped out for the noobs while teh computer masters were speaking. He wanted a tuturial and like myself didn't know wtf Ythan was talking about.
From the sticky in S+S. Hes a copy of text from Mobius_Strip:
It's simple.
If you aren't sure what a proxy server is then google or Wiki it first. Then:
1.Download/install the SwitchProxy extension for FireFox (Google it) You must have the firefox browser to use this - FREE.
2.Download the Charon proxy Finder program, or any other proxy finder program or script (Google it) - FREE
3.Run Charon, or the proxy finding script (find secure proxies)
4.When you find a good secure proxy(ies), preferably in another country, you copy the IP and port address and paste it into the switch proxy list (from step 1).
5.Tell the SwitchProxy extension to use your new proxy list from the dropdown box.
BAM! now you have a more secure way of browsing the internet anonymously.
Repeat the above process as needed. A useable proxy one day may not be a useable proxy the next. Can be unreliable and slow.
Alternately, you can subscribe to a secure proxy service, like proxyway, megaproxy, etc... and pay out of pocket for more reliable and encrypted surfing
I am d/l the stuff.
