...unless the remaining 1% is Lofentanil....but usually 98 -99% is enough for any MDMA to be considered fire by everyone.

Sometimes MDMA is already mixed w/caffeine, just look at pill report websites. Caffeine potentiates MDMA but also adds to the neurotoxicity and cardiotoxicity, so I avoid combining the two if I can.Ever tried MDMA with caffeine or amphetamine?
Yeah they don't do much for me. I mean, different strokes & all that, but I'm not a big fan of drinking or recreational opiates, just a personal preference. Booze gives me headaches. Opiates constipate me. To modify MDMA's effects, I'd rather go w/GHB, PCP, or a key bump of K if a better disso isn't nearby.…combo with opiates or a bit booze.
I don't think you have to be a raver to experience that. But yeah MDMA's effects can seem paradoxical at times.I too find MDMA, especially dosed high a lot on the relaxing & melting & connecting but I ain’t a huge raver so that too is ofc personal preference.
I agree that "minutes can play a difference". Certainly it can't hurt to dissolve your drug before ingestion. I know ppl who chew up their pills and claim it hits faster, but as pointed out: can't rule out placebo yet.I still think using drug that’s already dissolved, even pure MDMA or equivalent in speed of dissolving in water can make a change, ofc not nearly as change of ROA but minutes can play a difference.
It's easier to obtain micro-crystalline cellulose (MCC) in EU than it is in the US. MCC as a bonding agent + stearic acid as a lubricant + active ingredient + milling → single punch rotary tablet press = excellent tablets. So US clandestine chemists often resort to other, inferior bonding agents with lower compression ratios of inactive-to-active ingredients. This results in large, crumbly pills and the emergence of so-called "double-stack" and "triple-stack" pressies during the late 90s / early 2000s.very hard presses compared to loose/chalky make some difference. I’ve noticed that very high dosed pills, usual in some parts of Europe tend to be very hard pills while “normal” about 120mg pills are usually not that hard…
In theory, regulators are supposed to catch discrepancies between a pharmaceutical drug product and its generics. They specifically look at this portion of it as it's often different from the original product in an effort to shave a few more cents off of each dose. In reality, I'm sure this process is far from perfect and probably has an appreciable fault tolerance.inactive ingredients in pill do make difference as they do with pharmaceuticals and make some people think some generic brand is stronger or better when in fact just absorbs at a bit different rate.
I think you're making a lot of assumptions here.MDMA of as low as 65% purity isn’t unknown on the market as xtals and less so in pills. Usually anything beyond 85% is considered very good stuff. Stuff that’s really in high 90% is more of a rarity than a common thing.
Stated is correct for some periods and some places but I’m pretty sure stuff of exceptional purity still isn’t a norm in most places outside specific, not so big circles. With that in mind I assumed that purity of xtal can be low enough to really influence absorption.
Idk about this statement.MDxx sometimes potentially being closer to it than MDA or MDEA etc.
Again, this is a lot of speculation. I doubt anyone thinks of—or uses—MDA as a "cut".On occasion or two with xtals I had that confirmed, like once being a mix of MDMA and MDEA, and MDA is surely more common “cut”.
I’m just stating my experience and experience of people I know who tested quite a few batches of crystal and pills. As for MDA I personally never saw it as crystal with MDMA but there were a few pills that were mix of two. I did have crystal that was mix of MDMA and MDEA, don’t think that was any kind of mistake but someones practice of mixing up things a bit to refresh experience for people.I think you're making a lot of assumptions here.
Yeah although it's speculative. Another possibility is that this person had access to, say, a mixture of nitromethane and nitroethane, but didn't want to risk fractional vacuum distilling them to separate, so they aminated their ketone with it like a boss all the same. No, you're probably right.I’m just stating my experience and experience of people I know who tested quite a few batches of crystal and pills.

I’ll conclude this by repeating that I’m yet to encounter mehDMA that can’t be purified enough to become fire stuffYou would surely change your mind given right place, music and dose. If you love dancing on emphatogens you would almost certainly learn to love dancing on psychedelics.
Ever tried MDMA with a bit of caffeine or amphetamine? Just a tiny bit is usually enough to make it dancey for me. But in fact so does combo with opiates or a bit booze. Ofc adding psychedelics changes experience totally unlike tiny dose of mentioned, sure not everyones cup of tea. I too find MDMA, especially dosed high a lot on the relaxing & melting & connecting but I ain’t a huge raver so that too is ofc personal preference.
As for Shulgin, yeah I know that. I still think using drug that’s already dissolved, even pure MDMA or equivalent in speed of dissolving in water can make a change, ofc not nearly as change of ROA but minutes can play a difference. As for pills, I won’t say I’m positive but almost that very hard presses compared to loose/chalky make some difference. I’ve noticed that very high dosed pills, usual in some parts of Europe tend to be very hard pills while “normal” about 120mg pills are usually not that hard. Tho if that’s intended or simply to be able to make 225mg pill about same size and weight (or at least not double) of one with 120mg of active stuff or there might be more to it. At some level again I won’t say I’m positive but again almost, you can bet that inactive ingredients in pill do make difference as they do with pharmaceuticals and make some people think some generic brand is stronger or better when in fact just absorbs at a bit different rate.
But what I was really aiming at with my previous statement is that MDMA of as low as 65% purity isn’t unknown on the market as xtals and less so in pills. Usually anything beyond 85% is considered very good stuff. Stuff that’s really in high 90% is more of a rarity than a common thing.

With that in mind I assumed that purity of xtal can be low enough to really influence absorption.
I’ll conclude this by repeating that I’m yet to encounter mehDMA that can’t be purified enough to become fire stuff. I’ll admit that sometimes it seems that fire still can have a different flavour but that comes to fact that MDMA in a mix with other MDxx is not that rare either OR possibly even more common, MDxx is sold as MDMA. MDxx sometimes potentially being closer to it than MDA or MDEA etc. And to clarify that I don’t claim a bunch of MDMA is something close not real stuff but rare occasions I encountered mehDMA turned to fire with a bit of different flavour was usually the case. On occasion or two with xtals I had that confirmed, like once being a mix of MDMA and MDEA, and MDA is surely more common “cut”. I’m also open to that in unconfirmed MDxx maybe additional purification would remove “flavour” but usually 98 -99% is enough for any MDMA to be considered fire by everyone.
Lab test WITHOUT NMR is pointless..I’m just stating my experience and experience of people I know who tested quite a few batches of crystal and pills.

I did have crystal that was mix of MDMA and MDEA, don’t think that was any kind of mistake but someones practice of mixing up things a bit to refresh experience for people.
Wouldn’t say it’s pointless at all with MDMA, each time we found out purity of given crystals and pills too. Yeah it could have been something really close to MDMA, and I did mention that possibility but I did get result one time as high purity MDMA and MDEA mix so paid and free testing facilities we used weren’t run by amateurs with cave equipment.Lab test WITHOUT NMR is pointless..
Gm/ms, FTIR AND RAMEN and paperspray mass spec is missing something.. all of those can't tell the difference between fxe and can ket a meo analog of fxe
I had to consider that that was the issue so I asked some younger family and friends what their recent first time experience of MDMA was. I let them describe before asking specific questions. Their description was very lackluster. Putting all the subtleties aside, I'm looking for at least very strong feelings of pleasure and euphoria as this was a huge part of my limited use in the 90s. For me the initial comeup after 50mins was such hard pleasure that it almost made me panic but within 5 mins the euphoria kicked in and everything was amazing for a few hours.My 2 cents as someone looking in from the outside and as a long time, responsible, MDMA user, who still gets good effects. I don't think there's anything "wrong" with the MDMA around today. Of course, like always, there are bad drugs out there and much better drugs. However, the sub-par experiences IMO can most often be attributed to some combination of tolerance, mindset, age, environment, and most heavily: expectations. I know many will disagree, but if you are careful in your sourcing (darknet for me), the good stuff is there.
I kept saying this but.....it seemed to fall on deaf ears.
Is it not possible you and your younger family members have been unlucky in your local area in terms of finding real deal, high-quality MDMA? I've been using MDMA since '96. There are good batches and not-so-good batches out there, just like there were in the 90s. What do we expect, it's an unregulated drug. Acid purity varies quite a bit as well, as does cocaine, meth, heroin, speed paste, even RCs…I had to consider that that was the issue so I asked some younger family and friends what their recent first time experience of MDMA was.

I have had nothing like that since starting again around 2010. My younger family's description was very much in line with my current experience. Basically they would shrug and say it was fairly good and got them wasted - basically the requirement for people nowadays.
I'm not sure where they got there's but I got off the DM so same country but that's about it. I suppose I can summarise by saying I don't know anyone from the UK who has got anything good for years, except for one time but I don't know where they got it from (and that is very 3rd hand information).Is it not possible you and your younger family members have been unlucky in your local area in terms of finding real deal, high-quality MDMA?

But you're right insofar as to say that there's a certain novelty to doing a drug for the first few times and this just wears off eventually. Rolling in new environments and around new people helps to refresh the vibes sometimes for me though. Set & setting – and really with MDMA, the company is important and so are the lights and music. It picks up the experience and gives it some kick, and at times these things can be the difference between an amazing experience and a lackluster one. Many of us are not making the same moves we made when we were younger. Add to that the fact that as we get older our brains produce increasing amounts of MAO and getting high actually becomes more difficult with a higher threshold.
I'm not in the UK but I would completely agree w/that assessment and I also don't know anyone currently in the UK who seems able to get domestic MDMA worth a fuck, save for a few rare cases here and there, it seems. And this makes me think it might get better soon-ish. Seems like a really big market and it's only a matter of time before some enterprising types with the right connections and inclination for civil disobedience take advantage of this opportunity, risky though it is in its criminal elements and potential for loss of liberty. It's just a matter of time before the land that gave us the Doncaster raves will be flush with high quality Mandy again…I'm not sure where they got there's but I got off the DM so same country but that's about it.

Acid has varied in strength but never omitted basic functionality associated with it.
Eggs smactly.I've had some amazing MDMA in the recent past so there are definitely good and bad batches still out there if you know where to look
