why do you want your website name to have some form of "school" in it?

All of those make it sound like a college, and unless you're gonna be charging people money for classes and then handing out degrees...they all sound bad.

I just don't think it's a good idea. There are already other way more established sites on drug education, you're trying to make it sound like a college so you can get federal grants and stuff (which I highly doubt they are going to give you), and by the way...way to fucking use the Shroomery's site to promote your own. You ass.

that is just an ignorant way of looking at it. There shouldnt be competition when it comes to giving credible, factual information. if anything, the shroomery should support any website that shares its mission statement. While I agree that it is rather a douchebag thing to use tax payer money to line your own pockets, but if someone wants to make a website to inform people about a certain subject, then more power to them.

True, but they shouldn't name their website accordingly to sound like some kind of educational institution when it is nothing of the sort.

Yeah, I'M ignorant. This kid *off the record* exploits loopholes in the government to make money off a charity. And now he's trying to do it through a drug education website. I somehow get the feeling that the Shroomery would actually not support this. He DOESN'T share it's mission statement, he's obviously just trying to make a quick buck.

The war on drugs isnt just incarcerating people, it is an information war, and anyone who wants to battle some of the current propaganda is on our side. I imagine that there have been tons of people who had some intrest in mushrooms, or general mycology, who were turned off by the shroomery's name alone. Im sure some have thought "how can a place with a name and font like this have an unbiased, informed position on such things?". A website with an oficial sounding name might get those people to learn a little something from our side.

I doubt that there is one charity out there where someone doesnt make money off of it. It is the way of the capitalist society we have. I honestly dont know what his mission statement is, but if he is can make money from giving people factual, unbiased information, then good for him.... but if it is just pure bullshit, im sure it will fall flat on its face and drag him down with it.
