I strongly suspect much of the whole concept of pre and post ban being so very different is bullshit. It was the very same manufacturers making both until China banned meph a while back so not reason at all for there to be any difference beyond set and setting. I very much believe that is still the case. Lab results would appear to confirm this - meph is still meph, it's the mindset that's changed.
Probably you'd be right if we were talking about uncut substances purchased directly from the producer and synthesized by expert chemists in pharma-industry grade laboratory, but that's not the case. The chemicals used, their purity, the process, all play a part. There is absolutely no way that the mephedrone which is around now is the same as the pre-ban I'm afraid
Pre-ban meph was a pretty special substance to most folk who had it.
I remember F&B following, nay leading that line. And I also remember the PM I got off him when he'd finally got round/succumbed to trying a line. Blew his face off and he thought it was as special as everyone else who did it knew it was.
Pre-ban was an amazing substance for those who "got" it. Would guarantee a banging plus 4 on the Shulging scale nearly every time, but then I used to do it no more than once every 2-3 months, as the comedowns were horrific for me
Do you reckon Meph is here to stay, will it be around 5-10 years+? There's _a lot_ of shit stuff out there and it's only coming up on 4 years from the ban. Will it die out? Where is it being manufactured now?
Believe it or not, it's still very popular, lots of people have started doing it after the ban. Will it still be around in 5-10 years? Probably yes, unless something else, with the same stimmy, cokey, rushy, musical, qualities comes on the market. I don't know where it's manufactured now, I've heard India, East Europe, even UK, but who knows?
I think most people who got into mephedrone recognise it's bad side tbh.
Doing pre-ban made me feel like I was eating the Forbidden Apple, lol. "So good, it must be wrong"
Just find it strange that people are so touchy about mephedrone whereas nobody is at all bothered if somebody bitches about coke or booze or practically any other drug really.
Good point, I find it mildly annoying when people slags meph, there is often a judgmental slant to it (or maybe it's my guilty conscience?), don't know why now that you mention it. For people who enjoyed it, I've said it before, pre-ban drone was otherworldly. Mailmonkey used to joke that "The Drone is a sacrament, religions will be built around it"
. See what I mean?
