Title: what is up with the spam to 50?
Post by: beefyfrog on June 06, 2013, 04:11 am
I understand without 50 post this is the only area of the board we can use. But all there is are threads promoting spamming to 50. Now in my mind this completely defeats the purpose of having to have 50 post to reply on other boards. So my question is, does anyone really care if people are just spamming their way out of here? Its seemed to ruin the newb board since I cant hardly track my posts with the constant spamming and bumping those threads up.
The whole point is to prove you can be a contributing member and the first 50 are the trial. Maybe im fucked up. Oh well..

50 is a lot, I think it's too high. you can be a contributing member with less posts. but people need their 50 to post elsewhere so it's better we have dedicated spam posts than everyone spaming other posts.

Well atleast with the btc post their at least making a attempt. I rather reply to that then "wtfomgbbqhaxorz82ie8ririrjfncncndksksoo". It looks ignorant and like people dont take it seriously. Ive only been a member of the forums for an hour and have over 10 post. They might not be sticky worthy or anything but at least im going to earn my post legitly. I know it doesnt matter and by the looks of it the mods or whatever dont give a shit if they spam. Its just a shame, I have been on other forums amd the minimum post count for full access was moderated very well and it meant something when you got promoted. Just my personal opinion.

I agree 100% I was just thinking the same thing, would +1 but since i lost my last account ill have to build my posts back up, welcome to the road, lots of crap to sort thru but also some gold if you dig long enough.

It would seem if you read all the wiki and sort materials then you should be able to test or in some way show your competence and off the the real forum for play...   ;D

Im glad I decided to join the forums. I rarely socialise outside of real life anymore due to the lack of maturity and the over abundance of ignornce. People dont care how they treat anyone anymore.. atleast online. If you can hide behind a computer screen your a know it all muscle man who engages in coitus with our mothers. However my interactions on Sr and on the forums with others have been very mature and kind natured. Atleast so far. So heres to a hopefully enriching experience!

Yeah, I think that some of the immaturity other places online stems from an eternal September. Like how everyone on the mic in Xbox Live is 12 years old and calling you a faggot.

Yeah I wont even use my headset unless ive had a bad day and feel like fucking with the fuckers. Haha
Isn't it sad though? Seriously I use multiple websites with forums and I dont have a single account on them. I do like to read through them though. Ignorant people can be entertaining, indirectly.

But, they are cheating with the 50 posts, at least this way(with some test) they would have some of the needed tools in their head.  Just an off the wall thought.   :-\

Go watch a youtube video and then read the comments.  Regardless of how good the clip actually is theres always someone telling them to kill themselves.

Froggy, I have been here for over a year and tried many things. I am interested in doing acid again, so I am window shopping until I find something that really appeals to me. That is half the fun I think. lol.

I cant even tell you how many hours I spent on the site before I even placed a order. The concept just blows my mind. I dont use meth or heroin but its amazing that the optiom is there. Im also interested in trying lsd. I havent ever used it before. Would you suggest I try shrooms first just to get a idea? Ive really never ventured out of weed or some pills.

I totally agree with you.  Seems to me that these 'spam to 50' folks are proving that they can't, or don't want to be contributing members of the forums.  I suppose we'll find out, over the next few months, whether they can offer something more substantial to the other discussions than they have to this one.

I did too. I had a lot to learn. :) For whatever it's worth, I don't think that shrooms and acid are comparable, except that they're both psychedelics.  People have wildly differing experiences with these types of drugs, but for me, shrooms have always been a crapshoot.  I might have a great time, or I might have a shitty, anxious time.  For me, acid is really reliable.  It always makes me feel happy, engaged, and sociable (which I'm usually not).

I definitely agree that shrooms and acid are incredibly different.

I definitely agree about the difference between shrooms and acid. To me shrooms have been a much be heady trip while acid allows me to connect with others. Every time I have tripped acid has been the some of the most enjoyable and memorable times of my life. Acid is just wonderful when tripping with a small group of really tight knit friends...really nothing like. Shrooms have always made me very reflective and introverted while I have always been incredibly extroverted on acid(I'm normally somewhere between both, leaning towards introvert) However shrooms have been great to me because they always seem to cut through the bullshit in my life and get me face to face with my problems.

The difference between Mushrooms (Psilocybin+Psilocin+Baeyocystin) and LSD is enormous from a pharmacological standpoint.

Mushrooms are solely a 5HT2A agonist where as LSDs pharmacology has agonist activity at several 5-HT subtypes and during the second half of its duration has notable dopaminergenic activity.

Everything else regarding the difference in experience is all subjective.

Must hit 50!

We could conceivably create an interesting conversation.  Just because many of the people here are new, doesn't mean that they're uninteresting. If we can't make an interesting discussion happen in this section, then our contributions to the other sections probably aren't worth much.
