Perth Pills - 21/8/02

[Fry-d-]

You personally may feel comfortable getting a pill by the sole recommendation of one post on the internet about a pill that may have a common name. But in the interest of everyone else who may actually want a description of the pill incase there is two batches about one perhaps a little suss and the only difference is maybe the colour or a slight variation in how the pill looks a description could be quite valuable.

Junga, I can't tell you how shortsighted that kind of attitude is. The post you're defending contains nothing but a pill name and the vague description 'good', and you say that's all you need to know.
There are several ways you can attempt to find out information on pills you may have purchased, but all of these methods except reagent testing rely on IDENTIFICATION of the pill and COMPARISON with someone else's results. You can't possibly compare your pill with a report on the internet, especially such a vague report as 'jumping jacks r good', if you can't tell it's the same kind of pill. The name 'jumping jacks' tells you very little, there's no colour listed, no distinguishing features, no information WHATSOEVER. Therefore, you cannot use that information to identify your pill to begin with, and subsequently cannot use the report to predict the effects. What if Euphorik had white jumping jacks, and you had blue ones, and there were red ones available too. Your report shows a test result, and mentions bluish/whitish colouring, but Euphorik did not include a test result until prompted. However, in the scenario where a different batch were also available (as is becoming more and more common) we must be careful to ensure that all the details necessary to identify the pill are included, otherwise the reports are vague at best, and only represent information that is useful in combination with other references.
Hence, the moderators who've already asked people to post detailed descriptions and test results have a very good grounds for making comment. There have been issues in the past with double batches of similarly coloured pills with the same stamps, in which the two batches merely differed by 1mm in pill height. However, it was important information because one batch was MDMA and the other batch was MDA. Insignificant details may mean the difference between having a good night on something you've clearly identified, and having a disaster happen when you expected too much from limited information and made the wrong decisions.
The more information we can get gives us a better chance of identifying the unknown quantities, and taking less risks.

I agree with Junga - I don't get this attitude from the moderators. I'd rather see a post that gives an opinion on a pill than none at all. If I were looking for info on Jumping Jacks and saw Euphorik's post, I'd find that a lot more useful than not seeing it at all.

but there are no other posts on jumping jacks, so why not just let ppl know that their not dodgy and their pretty good pills? bluelights just a guide anyway.
Euphorik, do you really think it's safe to assume that jumping jacks are "not dodgy" and that "their pretty good pills", just because there's no other posts on them? It's a big fucking world buddy. How do you know that there isn't a dodgy batch out there? Or that there isn't one on the way? Some poor sod might read what you've written, believe it and without a second thought and consume a pill containing dangerous material.
Bluelight is not a guide. It's a drug education & harm minimisation resource. If you want a guide to pills which will let you know what's "dodgy" and what's "good" http://www.pillreports.com is what you're looking for.

The information you've read is good for five eighths of fuck all, and it's unwise to view it as at all useful. Did you read what BigTrancer posted? If not, read it. If you did, I suggest you read it again and reconsider your comments.

His post provided incomplete information, meaning there was something wrong with his post. If you want to know what was wrong with it... Read what BT posted. And read the forum guidelines.
As for getting a life, I'm trying really hard... But my mum wont let me go out after 10pm, even on weekends and I'm so pimply that girls run when they see me. My entire life is spent here, as a keyboard hero, having a "sad" every time someone doens't write a thesis on the dimensions of a pill. Sue me.

Because......... THE INFORMATION IS USELESS.
Think of it this way: what if Euphorik is a dealer? You've just been suckered into a sale because you're willing to believe any crap floating around.
DON'T believe everything.
ASK questions.
The more you know, the less chance you have of something bad happening. There is no such thing as too much informtion.
The mods of this forum (and me) don't have this attitude because they get a kick out of it. They have it because they know that information like 'they're good' ultimately isnt worth the pixels on your screen. Who are you to say 'get a life' to the mods that have commented here, when only one of them even lives in WA? They give up their free time so that idiots like you can insult them? It's just a good thing that people like you are the minority here.
If you don't like it then don't come in. Simple.
