it's not all sunshine and roses, but this place has treated me well.
How many here have had SR change their life for the better? i just felt my experienced my first buyer-side scam, but it was minor (for me) and massive in scale so i don't feel alone. but with 16 prior wonderful transactions i want to say some things about this place.
also tho.. how many have become dependent on SR for their recreational needs?
these are the nice things using SR almost exclusively have done for me..
1. regulates my drug use. i always hated the "impulse buy". but when one has inconsistent connections and rotating stock, i tend to blow tons of money to "stock up" on something that i may not see again for years. the quality ends up sucking.
i have not recieved a single item from SR that sucked. a vast majority blow away anything i have ever tried.
with my slow BTC process and shipping, SR allows me to plan, while simultaneously allowing me to order that substance that i crave.
2. rotates my drug use. i have picked up habits in the past, but with SR i rotate hard drugs, moving between stims, opiates, and others in long sluggish curves, stretched over months.
3. saves me money (surprisingly!!!): while the prices are premium, i've found great deals with intensive scouring and the quality allows me to use less, and save more. i have had consistent supplies of fun stuff since coming here.
4. protects lil me. no more face to face, severely disadvantaged or relying on a male friend that may gank my stuff. here being female gives me no perks, up or down. i like just being a person, and i like the physical safety.
5. however, lost most of my RL dealers. while i consider this a good thing. most were shady fucks. i hated having to maintain relationships with people i hate. but if SR dies, i may be stranded. i do have emergency plans in place.. i hope everyone else does too!!

SR has changed my life for the better as well. I love the fact that I no longer have to deal with shady dealers and constant fear of being pulled over and arrested after I make a deal. This shit happens a lot where I live. In fact I get harassed even when im not buying drugs, but thats another story....
Ive only had one deal that was a semi scam that I wont elaborate on, because I did receive something, although it wasnt what i ordered. It was a small price to pay, and i wont ever do business with that vendor again so lesson learned.
The prices here are about what I pay on the street, except for weed which I get for free. Im still considering trying some of the high quality edibles that are posted, but its hard to justify spending my hard earned btc on MJ when i can smoke all day and night for free ;D
I can only hope this place is here forever. If god forbid it were to disappear, Id be really upset, but where theres a will, theres a way, you know what i mean ;)

Silkroad is the most important discovery of my life since masturbation.

I have said it before and I will say it again..I have taken giant strides toward self actualization through the use of various hallucinogens obtained on SR. If SR were to disappear I would be devastated but would take solace in the fact that I was able to be a part of something bigger than myself and all of us.

#3. as with all online venues, open market bonus.
#4. This is a major +++ for the online dark markets. Maybe not one that was foreseen, I don't know? Anyway.
I'll just leave it at that.
Added benefit of direct harm reduction, the social stream, and, of course, security and policy discussions.
...and, if nothing else, well, as a boss of mine once said, these discussions will sure look interesting on the PowerPoint slides for the jury someday. Sorry for the bleakness, but, of course, it's not all sunshine and roses.

If we do a Silk Road advertisement on T.V then Reporter Pine will interview you for a vox pop on SR.
Then we'll finish up with our team of scientists finding that 3 out of 4 cats prefer mail order catnip to alley gank.

Why do I not know any girls that are into hard drugs?
That's a rare breed, even in my circles..

Scientific studies indicate that men are much more likely than women to engage in illegal/impulsive/addictive activities... which I suppose isn't a bad thing b/c they generally seem to have much more common sense. Perhaps this has something to do with their life-affirming maternal instinct. Of course, I make this observation in a complimentary and totally non-sexist way.
Most of the female users of 'hard drugs' (H,Coke,Meth) that I have encountered over my last 20 years of participating in drug culture either "work the corner" and take advantage of their quickly diminishing youth and beauty to pay for their habits. The older ones come across as crazy cat ladies who manically argue aloud with their "inner demons".... and most of them appear to have no teeth.
However, there are guys out there who see a mouth with no teeth as a good thing for some odd reason. Personally tho, I don't know how that would be of any benefit.
To address the topic of this thread: I LOVE SilkRoad and consider it a privilege to even be a participant here. Despite the occasional scams and the odd troll here on the Forum I think it's rather amazing and civilized that I can order my drugs via mail. It's reassuring to know that there are other folks out who are like me and believe in the freedom of individuals to take whatever mind altering substance they damn well please. I would honestly take a bullet in the chest for the anarchist/libertarian ideals upon which this community stands.

Yeah man I agree with you.
But I mean the sort of girl that is hot.. cool.. and into drugs. I know maybe 1? And she only does coke/mdma etc every now and then.
I've never met a girl with the party at all times no matter the cost mindset that wasn't fucked up in some major way.
It's a shame because I know they're out there..

not sure about the maternal instinct thing, but overall it's true. i certainlly don't lack that instinct (everyone swears i'm awesome with kids) but i have zeeero plans to have kids.
i have made no female friends in drug circles. the vast majority do have serious, unresolved issues.
but on the other hand, a few of us were just geeks that were curious about alternative experiences of consiousness, and found some measure of
acceptance in drug using circles and cultures. or are just casual "party girls" that go home to a whitewashed life being "daddy's good girl".
so my best advice... find a geeky girl with an open mind. if she's smoking hot and dumb as bricks she's got issues.
just my two cents :)

Destiny, you're so absolutely right about that. My girlfriend is pretty darn hot, not necessarily the smartest, but by all means not stupid either.
I had used most types of drugs (except needles) when I met her, and she had only once tried a MJ but didn't like it. After being together for a year or so, she moved in with me and got confronted with my habit of puffing some in the weekends. At some point she wanted to try it too, and guess what, she liked it because this time she felt much more comfortable. From there on she pretty much followed me in trying different things and trusts me for making the right decisions (and I do make sure nothing gets out of hand). Before I knew, I got her in to many things that neither of us would have expected her to get in to.
I would say trust in someone's judgement makes a huge difference. Given that I'm doing quite good on pretty much anything in life, she figured that these drugs didn't have to ruin you as long as you use them responsibly. It's the irresponsible/dumb/depressed people who end up getting fucked over by drugs. You need to get people to understand that. Just be responsible and aware of what you can or cannot handle.
Anyway, back on-topic, I second the guy who said this is the best discovery since masturbation. And Destiny, I also agree with your original post. This being anonymous, every subject can be discussed. It's nothing like real life; you can share experiences and thoughts with like-minded people from all over the world, nothing like would be possible anywhere else. I have only been here a couple days so far and I totally love this place already. Aside from that, I finally have a chance to sell my product much more safely and start building a reputation in a way I never think I could on the streets.
Peace!

This place is awesome.. cause of #4.
If you think drug DEALERS are shady.. think about most of the CUSTOMERS!
S.R. provides me with a opportunity to actually dose people with my mushrooms (and with virtually no risk) instead of smoking weed and plotting my next ridiculous kitchen adventure making a cheesecake containing 4 oz. of cubensis.
Growing gets old if you don't want to play gangstah slinging the harvest on da streetz yo. Enter... the Darkweb.
Problem SOLVED!

I may not post all that often, but I've been workin on lurkin for a long ass time and I just have to say this thread is much appreciated. There's been so much melodrama, trolling, and other poisonous shit on here lately. Some good vibes were much needed. Thanks, PD. :)
Also, I second your list of awesome SR perks. It describes my situation perfectly.

A place to chat with like minded individuals has been wonderfully relieving to my mind. (Speaking generally about SR).
Choice has been quite nice, generally everything around me is Indica and since SR I've managed to keep Sativa around me for almost a year.
And safety of course :)

That's just because women annoy the piss out of men and need some relief. My ex used to piss me off so much I'd do coke for breakfast.
And I love this place, it's the boss. Not only does it provide another avenue for me to sell drugs/financial/all my other bits on but it also allows me to vent in a way you can't IRL. In short...this forum keeps me sane.
Ironically I've noticed my own drug use go down since I've been on the forum. Weird shit!
