Well,
There are quite a few people that come and go in this forum. Having said that, it might be hard to keep tabs on the members that may be given a second chance after asking for exact locations. So, I'm not exactly sure how to go about this.
I'd hate to kick someone out of here after making a simple mistake, especially if it's out of ignorance. That could hinder their chances to ask important questions in the future.
Although, if we keep the rule posted(with bold letters) as the first thread in the forum, then ignorance could very well cost them their membership. I guess I agree with this then.
Yeah, publicly asking for drugs or exact locations to drugs is something we don't want seen here.
I've spent a good amount of time asking Mushroom John about his talent in finding those Ps. Stuntzii in the spring in those green grasses in and about Seattle. There's nothing wrong with getting help in obtaining knowledge in whereabouts and environments, etc.
I'm not being self-righteous, but explaining the fine lines between the mushroom hunter and the Gimme-Gimme Hunters.
So yes, I agree with LK and GG on this. Banning someone as early as this first drastic mistake could actually save all of us from congregating here in the free world that is The Shroomery.
Stay cool!-Levi7.
BTW, sorry guys, things have been really cluttered and messy for the last few months. I believe it's straightened out now, so I'll be haunting this site day in and day out as usual now.

Yeah... I am partial to warning first, then take action. Most of the people I've seen take the hint after you tell them once. It doesn't seem to be a huge problem once they're told
.
Would it be justitifed to delete or edit someone's post if they repeatedly asked for field locations?

Hi Gumby,
I think it would be justified to edit the first post of someone's asking for "exact" directions to mushrooms, along with a warning via PM to explain the reasoning.
You're right, people more than likely will not do it again.
What happens if someone asks for an exact location and someone else answers openly before a moderator got to it? What if that person happens to run to the location to find police there or even worse? What if that someone tells the cops that The Shroomery told them where to find the Magic Mushrooms?
This is hard to deal with. You know, it may only take 1 time to get heat from it.
Stay cool!-Levi7.

Levi, ole buddy ole pal Hows ya been? I hope you have everything straightened out for the better I've been having my fair share of bad luck and messy situations lately. Been in and out of jail now for the past two months over some stupid unlucky BS I somehow got caught up in. Its been a shitty year so far, it can only get better from here on out. My time on the forums has also been limited this year as can be observed by my posting frequency. Hopefully I'll be back around alot more myself, just can't stay away from this place for too long
Again, glad to have ya back buddy
LK,

gotta be careful with your relationship to the mushrooms and where theyre growing!!! if there is any chance of getting in trouble for finding the shrooms in one place, then you have to find another place to go where it is safe. stay smart about who you go shroom hunting with and when and where and however it is you get the mushrooms, do it safely.
keep on shroomin,

In reply to:
I personally agree with you. Whats the fun in hunting when you already know a field or location?!
To me the fun part comes after both finding and eating the mushrooms, when the sky turns purple and the horizon becomes a parabola.

Nowhere is "your" spot. your satements are archaic and lead to people getting in trouble by going wherer they shouldn't be. Your so-called "private" spots are nature's property and if there is an abundance of whatever, floweers even, you should share your discovery with others, at your discretion. I do not mean that every backpacking hippie in the uk and asia should be given inside tips but normal, working people who do not have the experience or time to need this type of help. This is not ground=breaking rtesearch that needs to be hidden until a patent is obtained, it is mushroom collecting, if sombody wants to know a good place tell them. Nobody likes a miser.

You don't seem to understand where we are coming from.
If spots are given out, the one person you tell, will tell their friends, and their friends will tell their friends, and the spot will eventaly be raped.
Law enforcement could also get word of this spot and bust people.
When *hunting* for mushrooms, it is implied that you are actually going to do some work and find them for yourself. If someone gives you a spot you have done no work and are a slacker. Lazy people will get no where. No one like a mooch. No one.
Revealing or asking for exact locations or "patches" is against the rules of this forum and it is enforced.
Take it or leave it.
