Yerg, this is all you my man. I never knew of any rule preventing discussion of prices for legal things. In fact, we've talked gas prices, cig prices, etc all the time in the past with Smods in here. Anything that can be even partially related to drugs cannot be discussed - so blunt wrap prices would be one of those "banned" price subjects, but only by a slight margin. Don't tell me you actually smoke dutchs, black and milds, games, or whatever blunt wrap for the tabacco haha.
I get the feeling you're just fucking with him for the most part anyway. If not, I laughed out loud several times reading the last page hahaha. A+ content.

A pearled/de-leafed Dutch/Game is the staple of an urban stoner's weed-intake. It's the only way I know how to make a single "cigarette" last 45min to an hour.
I'm still in love with my li'l bubbler, though. So many faded memories with that fucker...

Legality has very little to do with it. When I was in Holland, cannabis was legal for me. Should I therefore be allowed to post prices for weed? Seems unconvincing. Should we only allow discussion of things that are legal everywhere? No alcohol prices then. Legal for everyone? No cigarette prices. The legality criterion doesn't really seem to work.
The problem for me is that, rather uniquely for our forum, there's a pretty smooth continuum between things that can and cannot be considered drug related. Blame stoner ingenuity. We're agreed that we don't want prices for paraphenalia. So do we allow prices for tobacco pipes? Well, those are obviously cannabis smoking tools as well. What about rolling papers? The thing is, lots of people do use rolling papers for cigs. Why shouldn't they be allowed to discuss what their cigs cost them when others are? What about prices for growlights? Prices for fertilisers or watering cans? How can we be consistent? If we allow prices for gas, why not prices for butane? Butane is used for making hash oil, so we've ended up making paraphenalia prices OK again. It's a nightmare. It's so difficult to draw a line that my feeling was that it would be better to just not allow any prices at all. I thought we had reached an agreement on that chainer, my bad.
There's no blanket ban on prices in the BLUA at all. As mods, we're all free to set the rules for our forums. EADD allows prices, even for fairly large quantities. We could allow prices if we wanted, for weed as well as anything else. It's all down to us. I know you don't want prices for drugs or paraphenalia; where do we draw the line? I'm aware that this isn't the usual channel for discussion of policy, but I'm all for keeping our moderation as transparent as possible. If you don't agree, I'm more than happy to discuss it, I just think that this is the easiest, most consistent way of doing it we have.
This is my view. It leads to sourcing, dicksizing, but no harm-reduction.
Yes, the social thread is off-topic by nature. However, we can hardly allow prices just in this thread, because that is a)inconsistent and unfair to posters who aren't CDS regulars, and b)going to result in everyone using this thread if they want to talk about prices and it will just be the price thread.
As I said, and as should be obvious, I am happy to talk about this. If anyone has better ideas on how to deal with prices, please share. Please don't say "just use your common sense", because it's not that simple, as I hope the examples above demonstrate. Chainer, once again I apologise, I thought we had reached a consensus.
TL;DR Infractions will be handed out to anyone talking about anything that is not Tom Petty, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, The Traveling Wilburys, Mudcrutch, or the life, works and achievements of the aforementioned entities.

So I guess sense it's legal for me to buy pot, I should go ahead and fill CD with pot prices from dispensaries? That would be A-OK with Chainer?
I'm pretty sure I've used a Pepsi can for smoking pot WAY more than I have for it's innocent pleasures you and Jib enjoy it for. Also, did you know that 5 quarters comes out to weigh almost exactly one ounce? Pretty sure that comes in handy for drugs too.
Yerg, I read your whole post but feel the need to address only these two points
Personally, I draw the line at having my posts edited because I threw in my $0.02 (wait, is that putting a market value on my thoughts? Dude, price discussion on thinking, the euphemism needs to be banned from CD or else you'll be inconsistent) on another person's bitching about cigarette prices.
God forbid somebody tells me of a cheaper gas station and it leads me to source my fuel from said company in the future.
You know what's inconsistent and unfair? I'm not allowed to say link even when it's not in reference to anything derogatory concerning homosexuality, but I am allowed to say that everyone from New Hampshire is either a cocksucker or <well, you can't say that one. -Chainer> with a derogatory reference to homosexuality. Inconsistent much?
Enforcing a blanket ban on one general subject because anything else would be inconsistent and then banning single words instead of entire trains of thought that are the sole reason for single-word-bans is inconsistent in and of itself.
Congratulations on totally and utterly failing at consistency.
/straw men arguments
Anyways, I guess I totally missed the point of why price discussion is banned. I assumed it was to maintain the legitimacy of BL, but really it's just to make Moderation of Cannabis Discussion easier.
Eh.
Silly weed head, marijuana is not legal for any reason anywhere in the United States, even in states that have voted in favor of decriminalization and/or legalization. Don't believe me? Allow me to refer you here:

I'm sure you know what this means, but for any lesser-informed folk reading this: In the United States, if the Federal Government says it ain't so, it ain't so. Whatever your state voted on has no bearing on federal-level law, which, in the case of legal contradictions, is the only law that matters.

i'm pretty sure Tom Petty would agree.

Legal? Just like weed in Amsterdam, right?
I don't know how you manage it, but you, sir, are the most intelligently ignorant person I've ever had the displeasure of conversing with. I'm pretty sure you do it on purpose but I know I'm not giving you the benefit of the doubt.

Medical Marijuana is great. I can legally grow marijuana as well! It's nothing like Amsterdam at all really.
