What I find interesting is that DrBlueThumbs.com has still been spamming the inappropriate alt.drugs.* and rec.drugs.* newsgroups less than a week ago. I haven't checked the charter, but I even doubt that alt.drugs.mushrooms allows commercial advertisements. Advertising in the .chemistry, .pot, .salvia, etc newsgroups are obviously offtopic when he's hucking his wares.

yea really Thor.. he was only a sponser here.. You or the Shroomery really have no responsibility or do you? Ganja has been in a crisis but yet you guys didnt even put his fund raiser as a sticky. You are right though you knew nothing of Dimitri or his ways.

S2k is right. Fuck blowthug and his family. How could HE participate in such activities if a family is at stake? How could his wife, as a MOTHER, allow activities that could result in removal of her children from her home.
I'm out $$ for a hoody and two T-shirts that SEEMED to have the blessing of Thor and the website. What's up with that Thor? Will gf get banned for asking?  Many are ANGRY and well we should be.
I just hope Mr Dumbass attorny represents himself in court... WHAT A FUCKING JOKE

I am a bit upset myself. Hopefully only good will come of this, as I am out 2 hoodies and an order which should of been shipped long before all of these other things came about.
I really do hope everything works out, and everyone is set at ease. Time will tell..

In reply to:

Ok, so if sporeworks goes out of business this would also be our responsibilty?
Let me ask you directly, how is dimitri's going to jail OUR responsibilty??
We removed his banners, removed his website, and notified the community. That is our responsibility, we can't be responsible for all our vendors business future, if they close or shut down we can't have done anything to change that...
3mshroom went out of business because of legal problems, would we have been responsible of that too??
In reply to:
Ganja has been in a crisis but yet you guys didnt even put his fund raiser as a sticky.
Did someone ask for it to be sticky... Last time I checked that forum had 2 mods, why did you not contact them about it... You see that is why we have mods, because I personally never read that forum. But if it makes you feel better, blame me, you seem to make a game out of that.

Hey guys, sorry to see everyone is having so much trouble.
Anyhow, I talked to Dimitiri a while back about some marketing strategies we planned to follow through with on our sites, so we've talked before and all.
The point is, I live about 40 minutes away from Hinkley, where his business was located. I'm guessing the courthouse is in Hinkley, and if he's in jail, he'd be in the county jail.
I would be willing to find out when I can go visit him, and go up there this weekend and see him. I have been reading everyone's posts and obvioulsly many of you are having trouble, so I wouldn't mind doing this.
If anyone would like me to follow up with this, just let me know what MAJOR issues need to be settled, and I'll talk to him in person this weekend and figure things out.
Thanks.

I think he was moved to another county jail though, but maybe someone else can answer this.

Although I am on these boards daily... and have been for two years or so, I very rarely post, but this will be one of those few times...
I read alot of crap that dimitri flings, and people fling at him. I dont support him, but I dont put him down as a vendor either, however my feelings on the subject are this:
Just like when a 15 year old kid gets busted for growing, and its taken out on his parents. Morally as a 15 year old, you should not be GROWING because of the possible consequences.
In this case, Dimitri obviously knew about his warrants, but he never thought of the consequences of them going after him becasue of the warrants. He has put not only his family at risk, but most definatly the OMC, and most definately his customers. It does disturbs me that someone would put so much at risk to make a quick buck, and from what I have heard, poorly make that buck at that.
It is people like this that I feel my respect slip for. There is a common sense, and when you have outstanding warrants for drug related reasons, you do not run a shady operation that is borderline legal. And even more so when it could involve your family.

as much as people had problems with him i think he had a very nice inventory. he had everything you need to start. even if he had some problems i dont think its cool for him to be in jail. i hope he gets out he kept the prices down around here and i think his absence may affect the shrooming community...but that is just my opinion.

C12,
I'd like to know what actually he's in for...warrants or his business
Id like to know if he ever intends on filling unfilled orders or is he out of business permanently?
If he is closed for good does he intend to issue refunds?

ok,im gonna write this one time-
so everyone please read
1-dimitri is in jail,i have talked to the jailer myself
2-everyone seems to be against dimitri,and i did not want this to happen-i am sure that when dimitri gets out,he will fix everything(orders,raffle,cash ect.)
3-thor and the other admins are not at fault in any way-why should they be?as far as the raffle having a sticky on it,no fucking big deal-they wasnt even affialiated with the raffle,why should they promote it?
4-the fact is,SHIT HAPPENS-he is in jail,we cant fix that,and he cant get orders shipped from jail,now can he?why trash him,at least wait until he returns and has time to fix things,then if he doesnt,sure trash him-sure i didnt get the raffle cash,but my friends still came through-
give him some time at leats,im sure all will be good-he cant control going to jail,and cant run a buisness from jail-he isnt a MOB BOSS
and as far as his wife goes,she works a job,and has 2 kids(babies i might add)and thats a hand full-i know because i am a single dad-im sure she wouldnt know where to start with his buisness and orders if she wanted to-
and as far as mike(a.k.a. Dr. Bluthumbs Site) he could have posted this,he told me not to at dimitri's request-but it was his place to-but he cant fix the orders,im sure they have never even met(dimitri and mike)and that was an internet relationship,not an actual phiscal buisness relationship-im sure he dont know dimitri's buisness,he is only the webmaster-im sure he fixes the site how dimitri wants it,and thats about all he does,they are probably not even in the same town
im not defending dimitri-but it seems as soon as the man is down,all his friends and custermers turn on him and throw him to the dogs-in fact,he did help me with the raffle and did send me 75.00
as far as why he didnt send the cash or his wife-i was told the took all his money,and wont release it yet-
i talked with his wife about the raffle-she didnt even know a raffle existed-
im not defending dimitri-at all-but you guys are like a pack of dogs-

i think the concern is more that dimitri should have taken the necessay precautions before getting into business in the OMC (ie: taking care of warrants BEFORE venturing into business [especially a business of this sort]). this wreckless behavior put many people at risk in the OMC.
i think other concerns came up that many of the missing orders/hoodies/raffle $/etc/etc/etc goes all the way back to March. If dimitri was in jail that long, he should have informed people much sooner (and he also shouldnt have tried to deceive people by saying he had a "family emergency"). i personally question this whole fiasco myself. there's too many things that "just don't add up". perhaps if everybody woulda listened to the folks at FF almost a year ago concerning dimitri there would be a lot less people out there $, and less hardship as a result of this whole thing...
be well
