As a new member of this forum, I'm wondering why threads that discuss religion, which is a legal activity, get closed in short order - while a thread that is openly advocating and justifying the use use of an illegal substance is allowed to stay open.

Like the saying goes... "Your body is a temple. Treat it like one".


Anti-druggies ftw!


If you need drugs just to have "intelligent conversations" or to "have a good time" or "<insert event here>" then you are truly pathetic and have my sympathy. Sorry.

We're hardly saying OMG I DO WEED EVERY NIGHT FOR 5 HOURS. And religion is a generally "messy" topic in an online community tbh.

Tbh who the hell are you to judge people. They can do what they like to their bodies. I'm not advocating drugs, but as Cracko said. Is this the thread where you come to talk about who superioir you are over drug users?

So dirty smackheads stealing from their family/society or begging on the streets to fuel their habit are equals to the opposite person? Haha.

If that is your view of everyone that does drugs you know absolutely nothing lol. And if you actually think you're above any other person, I pity you.

you say that people who use drugs to "have a good time" are pathetic and that they have your sympathy. that shows me that you feel superior over these people who do that.

while it's not literally there, we all know you feel like this.

Well, If you want to put it that way... Then yes, I AM superior to them. I don't need to do a few lines of coke or do acid or pump some heroine into my arm to have a good time. Please do get a clue.

You told the other guy a few posts above this "he has no clue what he is talking about" when truth be told you have no damn clue what YOU are talking about yourself.

Hell... I bet you don't even have a brother who is currently dependant on drugs just to function "normally". Don't comment if you want to play the "simple-minded" game. Really.

I like how people who are against soft drugs (or even hard drugs) don't have anything against alcohol and cigarettes.
It helps me recognize who's a huge inconsistent hypocrite.

OH REALLY?

I have PERSONALLY been in the shithole that is called drugs, that's why I don't like you talking superior over drug-users, and i think your brother agrees with me.

I am against cigarettes and drinking. While I am fine with people drinking wine for example on special ocassions I will not say I am fine with the previous item.

Cigarettes are just......... Bleh.

How can anyone honestly want to smoke them while knowing/not knowing what they are putting into their system?

Sorry, but this makes me really mad. You aren't superior to them, in any RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing way or form. A really good friend of mine is going through the problem of drugs, he an excellent basketball player and he can't go out for it this year because he has NA meetings. I support him as much as I can, but people like you like to throw him on his ass and say he's worthless.

Please, close this thread.

Well when it gets down to it. It really is the persons choice to take the risk of taking drugs and that even counts risking the social stigma/dislike that can come from it.

I've only once been in a situation where guildies were discussing heroin. I left vent, told the leader, and a few hours later they were kicked.

I have absolutely no respect for the people that use the harder drugs (ecstasy, heroin, etc.). It's stupid and they have absolutely no right to tell the entire guild what they do in real life.

Have absolutely no problem with it... although i dont like harddrugs, only thing they can do is make your life fun for 2 years and destroy the rest of it. But if they want to talk about their lives, why not. I rather have people talking about what they did that day, ie smoking,drinking, whatever, then people talking about how awesome GW is and how noobish everything else is... GW is fun to play, but it becomes more fun with social contacts.
PS: Seriously, i dont know what you mean fallen, explain please...

If the things your guild/alliance talks about offends you, ask them not to talk about it. If that's not going to happen and you have a real problem with it, maybe it's time to find a new one.

I'm in for closing this thread. I believe at this point we can give up any hope for a civilized discussion.

I disagree that they have "no right" but some things should stay off Guild Wars. Just so long they don't break any ToS/EULA rules they are in the green to talk about what they want if it is not against the rules of your guild.

As people haven't realised, Fallen meant People shouldn't be talking about drugs they use to their guild. Not real life in general.

I see no problem with that, seriously. It doesn't hurt anyone in any way.

Retaking the main topic I have never got on a guild that used to talk about using drugs, in four years none. So a rainbowy and pinkish life for me.

Does you example implies everyday chat about using drugs? or they casually talk about using drugs?

Tolerance in this is FTW, but if you don't feel comfortable just get out.

Casual chatting is OK, as long it is not the main topic that bounds together the guild or alliance, do you catch my throw?
If I join a guild with other topics in its schedule other than enjoying the game itself IMO it is not worth it.

I didn't came to play guildwars to talk about the new politics of Obama or how the world is changing, or how much I drug myself or how many times a week I have sex, I came to this to play and being social about it.

Other than that can be accomplished on any chat on the web.

Here's an analogy to sum up how this is going:

You ask opinions and give yours --> People take it as a complaint and start attacking you because you don't like your opinion --> It turns into a debate thread on drugs.

Though on the topic of drugs, this is off-topic on the guild wars aspect of gathering opinions.


But just for the argument, congratulations! If you approve of others slipping hallucinogens in someone pizza, you sir' are part of our modern world's biggest problems!!


Either way, this is getting inappropriate.
