I've never smoked weed, and never intend on it.
In my honest opinion, anybody who actually admits to it in this thread is a moron. When I gain potential clients, a lot of them like to check up on me, and TalkFreelance always gets indexed.

Probably many many more facts on what it does to you, yet little imbreds decide to do it anyway because they think its cool.
With what ever this project is your doing, trying to popularize drug use or profit from it is a bad idea Sam. Im sure many more will agree with me there.

I never stated it was "cool". I enjoy it on a recreational basis. Do you ever enjoy a beer? Ifso, do you think it's "cool"? Smell for days? Sorry but I shower 2x a day, my body smells quite clean. Messes up your brain? It can for sure, there is no denying of that. If you use a lot.. But so can alcohol.
Imbreds? I'm not an imbred so I can't really speak for them. Many successful people smoke weed. Weed can make you lazy, but as long as you are comfortable with the amount you smoke, you aren't high all day and it does not affect your business or personal life, what's so bad about it compared to alcohol? Alcohol is even worse (seriously, it has been researched). Weed is harmful, but not as harmful as alcohol. If I was doing a site that reviewed ****tails etc... I'm sure people wouldn't be critisizing me as much while they should be. Do your research. BBC Horizon - they have an episode which is quite educational on the subject.

I just don't think getting involved is a good idea.

I've been working in adult since I was 16. I'm not going to deny it and even though some people might find it immoral, you will probably find that the majority of people here watch or have watched porn and enjoyed it. I have no shame in what I've done, the company that I work for now knew about it when hiring me and didn't mind one bit. They thought it was great that I was open and have experience in different fields.

Lmfao, since when did what i said aimed at you? Dont take a comments so personal when we're just trying to tell you that this project your doing is wrong.
You still dont get it Sam. WE ARE NOT comparing ALCHOHOL or any other substance to WEED. We are basically making statements, that are true, that clarify the outcomes of this project. That is what you started this thread for, correct?
Once again, no idea what you on about in that last part, porn? What the **** has porn got do with a Weed topic?
Can't you see what Weed has done to you, its a shame really.
This topic is useless, stupid and deserves some weedkiller.

Never did I say it was aimed at me, only that I could not speak out of experience on that matter.

I know, I just find it funny that people are so short sighted at times, people that drink alcohol but bash weed. I'm just standing up for the bashing. You have every right to diss weed, but I have every right to defend it. I've done my research, have you?
Oh, and if you seriously think thats why I made the thread, please read the original post again... I started this thread mentioning it was for finding fellow cannabis smokers. Not for peoples opinions about me building a site for cannabis users. If I'd want to know peoples opinions, I would ask. I know weed is not a popular subject and can damage my reputation. but seriously, I don't care how others think it will affect my work, that's my problem, but I doubt it will affect it in any big ways.

Erm, I was not comparing weed and porn. I was simply replying to Jamesy.

No, I can't. Please enlighten me though, what has weed done to me? If you give good points, I'm all ears.

Read the topic message - thread was not made to bash. You have a right to your own opinion but weed isn't always bad. People do abuse it a lot but it can also help people medically and as long as you smoke with moderation, it can be a great & safe (nobody has died from an overdosis). People that drink can get aggresive.. Would you tell people that drink to go shoot themselves too then? You smoke weed, and you feel more relaxed - I've never seen a ****ed of stoner.

Nothing wrong with it as long as you do it in moderation and it doesn't affect your personal life or work IMO. But I guess weed is less taboo over here in The Netherlands. I've got nothing to hide!

It may keep you relaxed, but what does it do to you?
1) Gets you on a high
2) You smell of it for days
3) Messes your brain up long term.
Probably many many more facts on what it does to you, yet little imbreds decide to do it anyway because they think its cool.
With what ever this project is your doing, trying to popularize drug use or profit from it is a bad idea Sam. Im sure many more will agree with me there.

I concur. Morals aside, it is a plain bad idea because of others.

haha whoever wrote this on page 2 is an idiot. Do some research, it doesn't damage your brain, and is actually better for you than alcohol.
