Title: The best thing about SR?
Post by: kingsandman on April 18, 2012, 01:24 am
In my opinion of course, the best thing about Silk Road is the community we have going here, on the boards. In all of the other boards I have been on that have "markets", there was hardly any communication between members. Only when there was a problem with an order, or someone was scamming, would you really see the community speak.

SR on the other hand, we have a really nice community here. People talk about their experiences with the items we see on the market. People talk about anything, really. The boards are quite active.

So aside from being the eBay of illicit substances, Silk Road brings the consumers together into a nice community. That's hard to beat.

what do you guys think?

Silk road is what made everything good when America was invaded by Europeans in 1492.   Low Taxes, no permits, market decides if vendor/products stays or goes.   Lots of Land Enforcers trying to scalp us.   Lots of THC Hemp to keep our sails tough, and our pipes packed. Back then it was all called hemp and im sure they prefered more euphoric varieties than today's definition of  000.014% THC Hemp.   Like washington's Cherry tree and other BoldFaced lies we americans have to swallow.

There are idiots out there that want taxes on Marijuana.  They already pay taxes on electricity, water, land, etc.    I find it pathetic to tax marijuana.   All these stupid white collar marijuana operators and their medical monopolies.  It is so disgusting.   

I watch shows like     American Weed, and Weed Wars.  Most people are cheering on the dispensary people.  Not me I pick on those douche-bags every chance I get.   Ill go post in the off topic room.  Cause I think others might share my view on these things.
Edit:
Here is my Anti Medical Marijuana monopoly off topic thread.  http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=19373.0  I diss on the Dispensary shows a lot.

Gotta agree, the community here really can't be beat.  A scammer comes along every once in a while but is quickly ousted.  Everyone here is just great, really. 
Also have to agree with Dave on medical marijuana monopolies.  The only dispensaries I was willing to go to were coops as they always had great shit, and actually cared about what they were doing, not just trying to make a buck.

Hi all.  The best thing about SR is that a place like that even exists!!

I agree wholeheartedly. We have a great community. I think that's to be expected, though. Everyone here shares an interest in the same groups of substances, a higher-than-average knowledge of informatics and a willingness to think outside the box and go after what we want (or we'd never even have found the place). And then there's the inevitable feeling of brotherhood that arises from being on the same side of this huge "us versus them" issue where "them" is pretty much every single government on the face of the planet.

We're a tight community, and I love it.

It's like minded with actually intelligence that make a good community.
If half the people on here were scammers with no morals, this site would be down in a flash.
But because of everyone on here, we enjoy success.
A big 420 toast to the members of SR!

Around where I live, if I asked someone for a few bucks to get something shipped that was important to me, I'd get laughed at. On here though, I can simply say I don't have enough for shipping and someone, who I don't even know, steps up and offers me funds. We help each other so much here. I fucking love it. If the rest of the world could chill the fuck out, step the fuck back, and take a good long look at the SR, I think they'd realize that communities like this one need to be seen on a regular basis. I shouldn't have to go on an underground website just to be treated like a human.

The Community. The people. The love. The generosity. If you can't afford shipping, ask the vendor if he can loan you the shipping cost. Try doing THAT with ebay or amazon.

DPR, and everyone else who keeps this site up and running, you are amazing human beings (who may or may not make a lot of money) ;) And I thank you for this.

Well it's definitely the fact that a place like this even exists, and the people here. If we didn't have such an amazing team of admins, vendors, buyers, and all that, none of this would work. It's a testament to human greatness that we can get together and share our love for things that are very misunderstood.

+1 Karma for that. (Though the Karma feature needs an overhaul. A poster like you should not have more negative karma than positive. Negative Karma needs to be deactivated/eliminated. So many examples of
this.)

Eh, I don't mind it at all. If people don't like what I have to say, so be it. I don't think anyones going to say "Oh, he has a -7 Karma overall, this long, helpful post should be ignored."

Also, yes, this IS the official circlejerk thread. Is that a problem?

It's extremely post-modern. I always wish I was born in the 19th century but at least here in the 21st we have the silk road.

I think the best thing about SR is the future possibilities it holds. It will only get bigger and bigger, and unless it gets shut down it won't stop growing. I think in a couple years time providing everything goes well there will be 10-20 million silk road users at least. I think people like tony76 are gonna start having to hire staff eventually. And the best thing about silk road truly being a massive global market is that it means the end to scumbag street dealers with shitty product and underweight draws, and the start of a world where if you want it, you can have it.

The best thing about SR is it's going to give me a way to shroom a fuck ton of people (at a profit no less) without exposing myself to a SWAT team cause someone local ran their damn mouth and gave away the plot.

 AND I get to play all Danger Mouse in the process.. with whizbang technology and e-currency and shit. It's like living in a damn spy movie.

The best thing about SR is the overall maturity of our community. When I deal IRL I sometimes encounter bullshit accusation on quality. Here, if there are no reasonable arguments to the accusation it doesn't matter. IRL arguments don't matter (when it comes to drugs [or maybe money]).

 I've only made one order myself... so I have to agree it's the boards.  Very open minded group of people. I've just been here for a few days and am hooked. I feel I could share my terrible past and not be judged by anyone. Then again maybe I am not delving to deep in to the boards. So far I love it.
Title: Re: The best thing about SR?
Post by: onemanarmy81 on April 24, 2012, 01:52 pm
Only one order in so far myself, but got to agree with what everyone has posted so far. Quality drugs a family developing on the board. I think SR is like the illegal substances we get to buy here it's so addictive.

The forums are probably my favorite place as of right now. There's nothing more beautiful than an online community of anonymous drug users helping one another.

Best thing about SR is itself! and the great community backing it.

When i received my first package, it was an international package of 1g of mdma, i received in about 8 days, opened it and thought "that was almost too easy"

The best thing, imho, about SR is how polite and professional the vendors are.  I am just floored.  I've bought drugs on the internet before, but never like this.  It's really amazing.

And I also have to agree with philtre3 - it does feel a bit like living in a damned spy movie!

Agreed! It's pretty amazing stuff. Restoring my faith in humanity one thread at a time.
