Antonio, If you truly believe smoking marijuana cant harm you, then I dont think youve done as much research as you think you have.

There is harm in whatever drug you take, all medicine has side effects. However, the pros out way the con majorly in terms of benefits/side effects.

I was just making a point that there are other discussions on the topic and discussing marijuana in-general doesn't lead to self harm. We shouldn't out right ban the topic just because someone glorifies it.

FunFact: You would have to smoke 200+ joints in a day before you overdose. Compare that to alcohol, it would be extremely hard to die. There has only been 1 case of overdose in the world, I believe compared to 80k a year in terms of alcohol.

exactly!!!


dude i get high to play animal crossing. this is how i like to experience ac.
the point was NOT "this specific thread is bad!!!" but instead "is this something we should be talking about here? discuss"

we are on the same page, see above "I guess the bottom line is whether or not we think it should or shouldn't be allowed is one thing. It does not break the existing rules but maybe the rules should be changed to reflect the vibe of the forum."

there has never been a human OD on marijuana
there has been in mice, but not a single human death (and the mice od level was crazy high no pun intended)

Also, the main topic is about if marijuana should be talked about. That's how I read it anyways...

Again the issue being raised isn’t specific to marijuana, its that chatting about getting high doesn’t seem to “fit” on this forum.

Quick check, how old is everyone here?

I would honestly really like to hear staff input on this issue.

As a general rule, we are fine with it, but we would still review threads on the topic on a case-by-case basis.

Despite popular misconception this is not a children's forum. The majority of our active user base are legal adults and in many of their locales it is legalised. Teenagers will hear far worse at school, and see worse at parties, than they will on TBT.

First case in the uk, it's pretty hard to do.

Your guys posts contradict each other

I mean, Tina said just otherwise.

I believe this forum is more of a teenager+ community rather than a children forum.

Those posts are from 2 different people.

Your posts contradict each other

probably because we are not the same person???

You both are arguing on the same side

i think my issue at this point is that you seem to splitting hairs and avoiding what we're actually discussing - is this forum the place to talk about these things??? (as stated by the mods, it might be) im sure theres a specifically for ac stoners (actually, i swear i used to be in one on tumblr,,,)
also the person said you how many it would take to od, not that there was - although. there was:

also for reference im 18, made dumb decisions as young teen dont judge me : )

I didn't know that! Learn something new everyday

The mods have spoken and that's the only opinion that matters tbh

You both are arguing on the same side

new information was presented (very recent information) so what I think has changed. That easy
also this isn't about sides its about open, uncensored dialogue between adults

 

[Antonio]

You both are arguing on the same side

I mean, cases on marijuana overdose are rare to come by so he not knowing is a possibility.

Also, I just literally finished this presentation on marijuana and got an A+ on it so I may know more on the topic then he does. Mutual Party doesn't mean mutual expertise on the topic.

If that’s true then I wonder why swearing is deemed inappropriate, but discussing getting high is somehow fine...

That's just one crackpot coroner's opinion, which other experts have called into question. It's not true.

 

[peachp1t]

again, the point really wasnt weed being bad or harmful, or else id completely agree with yall. we were just politely discussing something we were uncomfortable with and talking about our opinions on it

edit: and actually, the first post was about all abusable substances and adult themes, not just weed.

 

[Antonio]

I don't think it's inappropriate, I think cursing is more hostile in general so censoring It lowers the hostility?

i dont really agree?? outside of tbt i casually curse all the time, but rarely in a hostile way. i was just raised to have a pottymouth

 

[Stil]

Anyway, this whole thing got derailed which is what I didnt want to happen.
This post was originally never about weed being bad. It was about not subjecting minors to the "joys" of doing drugs.
