Getting busted from this site

[FourTwenty4Life]

I agree. Plus there are some of us who just choose not to disclose our medical condition. Those with half a brain should know to make stuff up along the way....Do I really look like Gump? No Am I really the age that my page says? No. Plus a few other posts that aren't completely true.:thumbsup: That way I feel like I'm being somewhat cautious while still enjoying all that the forums have to offer. Just be smart people and lets all get along...remember we only have a 1 way ticket in this whole Life thing:hippy::jointsmile:

I use opera 3.0 as my web browser it uses a proxy server so no one sees your IP.its better than nothing.

Okay here it goes, in a nutshell...

Will they track you down based on your IP to determine that you've been growing?

Not likely

If you are busted for other reasons can they use this forum as evidence of your involvement?

Yes

The fact of the matter this site is dedicated to the medical user. Now not all members are in fact medical users, however, by in large the members of this site are very discrete and seeing as that is the case, i don't believe you have much to worry about.

good lord i have tried to say this many many times you can not be arrested for posting a photo of a pot plant i repeat CANNOT be arrested. at least in the U.S. they can and will track your activities before an arrest is made wich means they will supeona your bank accounts, credit card info and internet activity to show that you are indeed a grower then the D.A. will use that evidence to go before a judge and get an arrest and a search warrant. just keep your activities low key and for gods sake remember the 5 most important rules:
1. dont tell any one
2. dont use creit cards
3. dont TELL any one
4. DONT TELL anyone
5. DONT TELL ANY ONE

If that was the case and they started tracking every one, Pc by pc, Ip to ip. Then they might as well just install cams in every ones house to watch there every move.

I read a book about that once, lets see back in "1984" by George

I doubt you would be targeted unless you are operating a major grow op and bragging about it here. If you get arrested however, things you post here could be used in court if they search your computer.

Yeah there's tons of vids on You Tube that could get people busted. Showing too much of the room, house etc. I even saw one with this kid's full face and he's like "these are my weed plants". Just plain stupid.

Anyone who fears being arrested shouldn't be posting period. I do it because I believe in what I say, some tongue in cheek, some direct and to the point regardless of how blunt it may be. Its time to be blunt with those who persecute. I have no problems with LEOs going after truely bad guys. But going after marijuana users is nothing but persecution, and I would imagine those that enjoy arresting marijuana users or take their pay check for doing so, support torture too.

thats why i air on the cautious side almost always.

but to each their own.

Im not technologically advanced so i just assume a man can travel at light speed and look over my shoulder and watch as i post.

The information i see on this site to me gives me good reason to believe that you have nothing to worry about. But the way i look at it is if the damn cops want to bust me for talking about medicine instead of busting predators of our children online then our system is really fucked up. From what i see the mods here make sure no illegal shit is going on in here and they need to. I speak from experiance and the way i really feel and that is no crime. All the info in here is available at 100's of web sites and books and so forth. If i was worried i wouldnt come here period. You can come in here without your isp showing up if your really worried and or paranoid and as an ex hacker there are many ways to cover your tracks if you wish to. I gave up hacking 6 years ago because it is illegal and trust me it can cost you a ton of money getting out of trouble. As long as this site does not condone illegal activity then we all have nothing to worry about. I am new in here but i see lots of people being banned for trashing others and that is 1 reason i have chose to visit here. Lots of good info here and you can never know everything. As an old timer i am sure i will learn some good tips from the younger generation on this site. I love reading about cloneing,breeding,growing. You can never know enough. Just keep token!!!!!!! :thumbsup:

i dont worry about getting busted, it is not illegal to talk about something that doesnt hurt or threaten anyone elses safety. we discuss methods of consumption, likes & dislikes, even prices, all of the information is meant to be informative or entertaining

people who post pictures of ILLEGAL grow ops deserve to get busted, same with people trying to score buds online or sell them illegally.

i dont come on here to find dealers, most of us dont
