something that really bothers me

eestlinc · 06-22-2003, 09:16 AM

Why do we allow threads in general chat (or anywhere) that discuss the heavy usage of illegal drugs. I really don't think it is even the least bit appropriate to have threads discussing how to increase your serotonin to counteract your ecstacy tolerance and whatnot.

I'm pretty sure I closed one drug thread recently, I guess that one passed by me somehow though.

No, I don't think these threads should be allowed, much as porn isn't allowed here either - if anything drugs are worse since they can kill whereas porn can't (or shouldn't anyway

)

I agree with the both of you.

Watch out for that killer porn though.

yes exactly. i don't really care about "haha I'm drunk" but discussing the use of ecstacy (MDMA), cocaine, heroin, marijuana, etc is not really appropriate here at all.

Jokes involving the relation of PCP to both Joe Clark and angel dust are acceptible though.

yes I know and yes I do use the warn button. it didn't bother so much then as it does now, and that thread has sunked into genchat obscurity, but I just wanted to say in here for future reference that I think staff should catch these things and close them.

edit: nice secret IM name xD heh.

Don't be so hard on yourself, Mikey. You're not all that bad, deep down, somewhere, if you look hard enough.

Thanks, eest. I <3 it.
