I think we should just let people talk about what they want to talk about and stop sticking our noses in other people's business. ESPECIALLY since it isn't in the rules that they can't. c: It's really sad that people still find the need to dictate as if they know everything about a forum's dynamic and population.

Yes, there may be children on here that are influenced, but it isn't the poster's job to worry about children in a 13+ forum, nor is it their job to parent children on the site and not have the ability to speak freely and within the rules.

It was a rough outline so it has the usual grammar mistake and terrible phrasing...

The PowerPoint is way better to look at but I'm ashamed of my voice so I wanted to remove it.

Thank you btw.

huh? i suggest you go back and read the posts you didn’t see if you haven’t already. if you have, i missed the part where you acknowledged them. i honestly find it strange and hard to believe that a cannabis advocate feels so strongly about this the way you do. i’d think if you’re someone who truly enjoys the positive effects of marijuana and understands it as a substance, you wouldn’t be so against it being casually mentioned on a forum that consists of adults and teens who can surely think for themselves and form their own decisions.

please go back and read my original comment on the thread if youre following it so carefully. i originally said that detailed accounts of drug and alcohol use MAYBE dont have a place on the forum bc its 13+ and we shouldnt encourage minors to use such things, but i was actually disagreeing with the op on casual mentions and jokes on the subject

please don’t continue to quote me, ive unwatched the thread specifically because i no longer want to be involved and wouldnt have rejoined the conversation if people werent taking me out of context and ignoring all of my points
also im REALLY not a fan of your implications i dont actually use cannabis just because i disagree with you

making it known that you’re a stoner/user of cannabis personally is not the same thing as making a little joke about weed like “lMaO 420 blAzE it bRo”. the latter is what you initially said was ok, the former is what you were trying to say could be harmful. yet you’ve been doing it. i think you might have gotten a little confused halfway through your argument. speaking of ignoring points, you skipped over all of mine and everybody else’s, so i’m just gonna assume you were never trying to have a productive discussion. take care tho!

Alright, Little Timmy plays ACNH. Timmy lives in a town where marijuana is illegal and has strict parents. Timmy sees "like minded individuals" on TBT advocating the use of drugs. Timmy decides to pick up some pot from a kid at school. He isnt careful, and gets arrested. Parents have to pay the fine. Timmy gets beat by his dad for doing drugs. (stuff like this happens, and if you think it doesnt, youre dead wrong)

I know this is old but I wanted to put my opinion, this isnt the abuse of weed. This is the abuse of parenting. The parent is the harm here because they were not accepting the childs decision. The kid never used the weed in this story that we know of. The proper (in my opinion) way to handle this was to talk to their child and educate them on weed. I didnt mean to start anything with this btw, saw you said you wanted to take a break from this thread so <3

I also wanna say that I live in a pro-weed state and to me its as legal as smoking a cig. I just wanted to say that its been in my mind. Ive been born into a family that smoked and I dont have any affects. Its not as harmful as heroin and "Hollywood Drugs" imo, and has many have said, shouldnt be compared to it.

I skimmed through most of this thread and it was very interesting to see everyones opinions!

It's not about whether weed is good or bad. The underlying concern was for younger, impressionable people who also use this forum and whether it was acceptable.
I think it's very mature of people to have concerns and be able to voice them.

I think the concern is a is a bit exaggerated, I'll refer to Oblivia's post why people will probably already exposed to before they even got here. As long as you don't encourage or discuss heavier things it's fine to be fair. As I also said there are other more long-term harmful distances that are legal, lol.

I mean having a discussion is fine, but I think it's a bit problematic to shelter people when we're not a Neopets place.

LOVING the strawman argument, refusal to actually listen to me, and quoting me despite me asking you not to
never did i say you cant even MENTION youre a stoner. if i did, PLEASE quote the reply where i said that. and if youre gonna call me a hypocrite, the reply better include some exact wording of “dont mention youre a stoner or use drugs”
i said - the entire discussion, WITHOUT CHANGE - that detailed discussion of abusable substances (not just weed!!!!!!!) probably isnt suitable for a 13+ forum

also, yeah you clearly havent read my original posts and its hilarious. the jokes and casual mentions in question were things like headcanoning ac villagers as stoners or wine aunts, not “hAhA 420 BlAzE iT”
i really dont appreciate you purposefully taking me out of context and just straight lying about what i said

 

[grah]

I think people just may need to calm down and agree to disagree :/

 

[peachp1t]

i think id be calm if i was left out of it like asked, and if the person im replying to wasnt literally lying about what i said, honestly. i was calm for most of the discussion, and when worked up, tried to leave. twice.

 

[thatveryawkwardmayor]

this is why i dont smoke p*t smh stoner politics is exhausting.

 

[peachp1t]

this is why i dont smoke p*t smh stoner politics is exhausting.

obviously i do, but its why i dont usually share the fact for sure. it was just relevant to this discussion, most of the time it’s completely unmentioned from me

 

[Hanzoisbae]

Yeah I must have missed the memo where all internet citizens are now required by law to step in as step-parents to all stray kids in case they should somehow acquire an email address, and leave the boundaries of the firewalls that their parents neglected to setup.

It's a burden we must carry
