Aww, man, they got Crunkjuice

I started a week before my 9th birthday. It saved my life.
I was well on my way to becoming a violent gangbanging criminal. Then I got high.
And no, it's not like alcohol at all. Cannabis makes you think. Alcohol prevents thinking.

Yeah, cannabis.com is turning it's back on it moral responsibilities! SELLOUTS!

Don't get me wrong, I understand WHY it happened. It's just sad that our society is so screwed up that kids can't get an education anymore.

this site is getting stricter and stricter...seems like all forums I go to either die or get gay at some point, look like canna is near its end for me, whether I get banned or just stop coming, Yeah. I'm "underage" (weed had no age restriction, you just get in more trouble if your 18+)...peace I guess, internet nazis

As it is, 14, 15, 16 years old are still children that are not even half way through high school.... with no education to speak of (yet), none of lifes experiences, no training to become a useful member of society.
All they know is that they live in mommy and/or daddy's home, and their needs are taken care of, they get an allowance.....instead of having to work for a living and provide their own means of support.
granted.... there may be a select few that don't fit the mold, but we are talking a million to one shot here.
Either way, I think age restrictions are a good thing on here.

Flame me if you must, but first consider what I said.

First of all I just have yo say you are making absurd generalizations. Before I told my age on this site most people thought I was in college or a college grad. I have a shitload of life experiences. I have a job. And I get medical marijuana. And if it wasn't for the fact that you mentioned that there are some that don't fit the mold, i'd neg rep you. Its that type of attitude that keeps the youth down. Its that type of attitude that makes the world so fucked up.

I think you are putting all underage people into a broad category.
basically a stereotype of youth. not all teenagers are unexperienced in life or get an allowance from mommy and daddy.
you are correct that many of them cannot make rational or smart decisions, but it is not a "one in a million shot" i would say more of a 60 out of a 100 shot. i know many 14, 15, 16, year olds who have an older mind set than their age. you dont know everyones life and what they had to go through. and you also say someone half way through high school has "no education to speak of, none of lifes experiences, no training to become a useful member of society" so i guess that is all supposed to come to them magically when they graduate, right? im taking a long shot here and guessing that you where once 16, where you as dumb and unintelligent as you see todays youth?

I love this new age ruling.

why...nothing has changed except the fact a few members are gone. did you not like crunkjuice?

I'm guessing the reasons for this are because there is adult material on the site. If you want under 18's here it means you have to have restrictions on your language and also restrictions on what we share here. It means that the over all rules would also be a lot stricter. With the content that's on this site and the age of some of the members, Cannabis.com could face legal issues I guess.

I agree with you guys, it's a great loss and I'm saddened it has come to this. But you have to see it from the owners perspective. The way I see it is if one of our forum buddies gets banned then I hope he or she comes back in disguise ;)
