Seems the party posse I hang with now like a few drinks and I smoke weed so it's drunk + stoned before I pop my pill.

Just wondered if I'm negating the effects somewhat and should try to stay straight till I roll?
 
getting stoned before rolling normally resulted in a long long comeup and then a short and mild roll. add alcohol to the mix and I would bet you would be even more dissappointed. If you are looking to get runk and high before you roll I would wait until you came down from both before taking you MDMA. you can drink on MDMA but drinking until you are plastered can cause blackouts. 1 or 2 drinks would be alright but anything more and you are going to see decreased effects from MDMA.

save the weed for the comedown or smoke it sparingly durring your roll...too much weed will cover the effects of the MDMA and you will just feel really high.
 
As said above, save the weed for the comedown.

Alcohol dulls your experience for sure.
The first time i tried mdma (was my first time trying any drug except alcohol too) it was a fun night, but i was quite drunk already, my experiences compared to my first time... Well they crap all over it. I never drink on a night out now. I even refuse free drink all the time lol
 
I do believe you get the best experience when you abstain from all drugs for a while before rolling, same goes for psychedelics.

Excellent advice. I ask because 90s era we used to never drink then do pills. One time I did about 10 bottles of beer then a strong pill and I threw up hard on it getting home. I also noticed if I had a few too many joints, the E effect just wasn't quite as 'up'...so I tended to have 1 or 2 light joints max. Now I go out and the crew are all drinking, I smoke dope all day so I prob get to my 8th joint of hash before rollin. Then pills are dropped. So I must be blurring or negating something I guess.
 
I find a moderate amount of weed is necessary to fully bring out the appreciation of colour from mdma, however too much and i just feel really lazy. A small amount of alcohol before often helps me start in a relaxed mood and makes the start of the experience better, although having not that much experience I cant say for sure it doesn't lessen my experience in some way.

+1. I was going to prob do couple of light joints and 4 shots, stay sober for the whole day otherwise. Then roll...
 
For me it's normal to drink a few beers before going out and at the party before the E kicks in. Most of the time I then switch to water. That never caused me any problems, as long as you're not really drunk it should be fine.

I think weed is great during XTC!
 
Having a drink or two helps the anxiety of coming up on MDMA and doesn't put much of a damper on the experience. Getting drunk, however, and then taking MDMA is not smart. Besides the whole dehydration aspect of it, it really lessens the effects entirely.

Smoke some weed after you come up, have a few drinks before popping if you must.
 
To add... I haven't smoked weed since January of 2011. I have rolled 6 times since then (w/ no marijuana) and 3 of those rolls have been noticeably weaker. I guess it does help in adding to the roll.
