I can see your case but it still doesn't disspell the number of people that say there is no measureable difference. the only sure fire way to plug effectively is cumbersome to say the least and requiers a great deal of extra effort on the part of the user.
OK great, your are telling me I can get high quicker, there could be some sort of precieved increase in effects...sounds good...but I have to first buy and oral sryinge, crush up a pill/molly and put it in the syringe, put 10ml of water in and shake until the mdma is totally disolved then cram it up my ass and shoot the solution in there but even after all that I still have to lay on my side for 15 minutes to besure it doesn't leak back into my shorts. not only that there are conflictiing reports on weather or not I am going to get the increased effects I am looking for?!?!
Now take a real good look at the process and tell me if it is not (for a user that is healthy and has no other reason to do it) a novoelty ROA
I haven't had any desire to eat pressed pills in a very long time, I have sampled a good number of research chemicals that tend to be far more novel than whatever the hell ends up in most of them. In a personal standpoint, I typically only plug powders. Most of these will readily dissolve in less than a ml of water making 3ml more than enough. This is such a tiny amount of liquid that your not even really aware of it.
remove plunger from syringe. empty capsule or desired dose into oral syringe. replace plunger. draw up 1-3ml of water into syringe along with some air, shake for a few seconds, push air out. put against ass and press plunger. The entire process really takes less time than it would be measuring out individual capsules for oral consumption.
Your colon absorbs 1-3ml of liquid in a matter of a minute or two and unless there is some underlying condition present, you will have no issue with having to hold it in or any need to lay on your side.
I would bet that the solubility of MDMA in warm water is into the hundreds if not a few hundred milligrams per ml.
If you use warm water, you likely wont even be aware of it in any other manner than being high as fuck. Speaking as someone that doesn't mind putting drugs in their nose or mouth, plugging has all of the rapid onset of snorting without the discomfort. 2c-x has a mild burning sensation but its the only one of memory and it didn't burn like the unholy fire of a thousand suns that it did with snorting, just enough to be made aware of.
Speaking of the 2c compounds, they make a wonderful example of better bio availability through plugging as opposed to oral or nasal administration. With the 2c series, intranasal dose is generally considered half that of oral. But it burns like the fire of a thousand suns or like you just snorted drain cleaner and then got hit in the face with a hammer, and that is a description from the perspective of someone that consider themself a masochist... It makes it an almost non-viable way of taking it, and I find that the pain gives a rough and abrasive action to the beginning of the experience which isn't a good thing for psychedelics. The recommended plugged dose of 2c-x tends to be one that parallels the half of oral dose as necessary.
On another example, the 2C-x-NBOMe series is generally inactive if taken orally, sub-lingual is a little better, nasal and plugging are considered the only really effective methods of taking them. We suspect it to be active transdermally as well, very much enough to be psychoactive.2c-c-NBOMe very much makes its presence known if you plug 400 micrograms but if you put a 400ug blotter into a gel cap and swallow it will do little or nothing, as far as sub-lingual there is a chemical taste and effects are far less pronounced for dose.
