QuoteIf you want information that's already been posted elsewhere you need to do what it takes to find it There's no point in answering questions twice, perhaps you should rethink your demands
everything has been posted everywhere, refs and chem books cover everything, total synthesis covers almost every mdma question. hive archives cover everything. to everypost we should now reply with an erowid link then complain how erowid and chemistry books already coverd it. we are all cooks cooking out of science refs and procedures anyway, we just know how to tweak our recipies and we know how they work
it takes more effort to find a reference than it would have taken to just say something like boil down vaso = silicone grease. then anyone on this forum who wants the answer has to go join up to the other forum to get it.
all to often i type a question into google, i find the same question someone has asked on a forum, no one gave straight answers they all complain how its already been coverd and how he needs to do more research bla bla bla. one person posts maybe a helpfull link, but sure enough the link is usually dead or you have to sign up to another forum, go through hundreds of posts to get probly an inconcusive answer. end of rant.
All that is needed is a bit of common sense. If the answer is reference-like and can be definitively accessed with relative ease, then a repost isn't necessary. That's why we UTFSE.
This thread is good because it is a discussion about personal experiences, not a 1:1 lookup.
Google's results are polluted. Lucky for us, this is a specialty forum which isn't full of repetitive garbage - at least it won't be as long as repetitive garbage isn't introduced by poor posting.
What's wrong with joining another forum? Ever since The Hive died, people have been bouncing back and forth from forum to forum, many of which are either gone or no longer accepting new registrations. Better get in while you still can. With all of the cooks, kidiots, and fantasy chemists running around, the chemical underground isn't going to be getting any more accessible.
