Who here thinks there are rats amoung us?
-------------------- 'Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they're wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It's all in how you carry it. That's what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you're letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain and leave the Shroomery.' ~ Jim Morrison

Who exactly are 'they'
Local? State? Federal?
How much of a budget does that organization have to monitor sites like the shroomery, the lycaeum, mycotopia, etc?
It isn't really practical- there are too many forums, and too many real drug problems.
they may scan posts, but i doubt they have someone monitoring daily.

Ya, that is why I have been on other boards for a long time but was reluctant to come here. Living in the same country as the server frightens me...but there are a lot of people here who do way bigger grows than I do and I merely assist a friend at a far away location so now I could care less. The cops around here don't care about natural stuff. They are concerned with coke, heroin n X....potheads and shroomers are rarely targeted unless they are involved with hard stuff too. I don't think they are going to waste money busting chill kids who like to hang out and laugh while they watch the colors in their heads....over the violent drugs and those committing crimes to get them. So I decided it is safe...lol...just wish I had given it a real chance sooner. I have been at shroomtalk for a while but Mush apparently place a lot lesser value on our friendship then I and allowed a mod with a personal issue suspend me after I have done some pretty upstanding things that weren't deserved, but I figured that's what friends do. I will be more careful who I take a stake in next time. I do owe him for shroomotopia actually turning into a semifunctioning website though. It isn't really as much his fault as the people who work for him.But either way I got the short en of the stick 2,300 posts later.

i think THEY would more than likely be state and federal level agents.
really? havent you read about how much money is dumped into the war on drugs? i think it is totally feasible and definately probable.

No.
the bigger question would be, is there a way the feds could hide the fact that they gathered their evidence to conduct a raid on someone from here? if they could, it would be smart on their part, because if we all found out about it, then noone would speak in the public forums about illegal activity.

If you think the DEA is constantly monitoring this site you are kidding yourself. This isn't the hive, this isn't OPR, and this isn't overgrow. I wouldn't doubt that the DEA checks up on lots of sites for trends, etc, but to monitor sites to bust people, I doubt it. They could have already busted most of the people here that post without a proxy by watching them. They have bigger shit to do, seriously. Local law enforcement might watch the board, but they are a bunch of fucking morons so that doesn't matter.

fapjack i think you are wrong. i read a story about police in florida that used myspace to setup a pot 'deal' where they bought an ounce and busted a 17 year old kid... if they are going to do it on myspace, why not here, in a place that is all about drugs?

That wasn't the DEA. Its quite possible local police could try to set up people of here as well. Myspace is different though, as you can search for people in specific locations.

yeah, i was pretty drunk when i wrote that post, haha. didn't mean to tell you that you were wrong, just that i read something that is somewhat similar to this. the kid was a moron though, i think his name was like potsmoker on myspace, and had a bunch of references to it. whatever.

What would the point be? No one sells drugs on this forum via message boards, and you can't exactly just start posting here and become accepted. You need to be in the scene to be believable, and some random jackass off the street is probably not going to know jack shit about psychedelics. I'd put money that the DEA is on OPR though.

Yeah I remember reading about that dude. Also, I'll be the first to admit, the DEA might be here, I just don't think they are because mushrooms are a lower priority that most other drugs (marijuana included).

Yeah I'm sure cops don't let pot heads go after they decide their shit is 'natural.' Like writing tickets has anything to do with what the ticket is for..
