Hey all, I need to bring somethin' up with all of you in response to some repeated violations of the BLUA within this thread.
The BLUA states, with respect to the general usage of Bluelight:
Kratom, as discussion pertaining to it is concerned, is a "quasi-legal drug"; it is not sold as a product for human consumption, even in raw form, but the context in which we are discussing it (for human consumption for the purpose of pain management) openly indicates our intentions. While this is allowed, putting that information in direct context with pricing questions/prices, names of vendors, or offers to dispense information relating to obtaining Kratom for the purpose of human consumption is not allowed here.
I can understand why there have been some troubles applying our site-wide rules regarding sourcing & pricing to Kratom, and the terminology "quasi-legal" may be seen as interpretive. But that's why I'm posting this message - to give all of you that information before it becomes an issue! Regardless of intention, this type of discussion still qualifies as pricing and/or sourcing and does not represent the values of the site itself. There are many other places online to have these discussions if you so choose; we'll defer to those places to facilitate such information.
Hope that's clear enough! My inbox is always open if you have any questions or comments.
Much love!!
