Spamming of websites to me means something different than posting a few links. Sorry in advance to the Modfather if I got that wrong.

I don't see anything in there that says we aren't allowed to mention other websites.

I know there are other forums that are discussed, but I don't know what they are or where they are at.

There is some industry news on craigslist, but that place is just horrible.

You can stick to the websites like here, rollitup.org, etc. I don't know the content or quality of any other online communities, I am pretty new to the pot forum-ing.

There are magazines like Daily Buds, Kush, Urban Grower, etc. These mags have awesome info on gardening and pot. There is some current events. However, always know that these magazines like dailybud are for profit, not non-profit.

for retail locations is okay, but it's also profit driven, and if you don't pay the site, you don't get listed. I think that's wrong.

You can read westword for news and accurate current events, and there is a couple MMC reviewers who make regular reviews. There are also resources there in the classifieds. Westword also has a dispensary directory, but it sucks.

What sort of info are you looking for?

edit: funny to me that we're scared of posting links or other site info under the threat of the ban hammer. That's why I posted the rules like I did, because I totally agree that posting another website/forum could be considered spam by some people.

I'm looking for info like jeff gard's site, and info like this site is trying to provide. I need to keep abreast of regulatory issues as they arise.

I think following a couple of local MMJ friendly industries would be your best bet. I think there is a good MMJ lawyer who blogs. You might troll blogspot or search 'colorado marijuana blog' or something.

From the DoR website:

With the passage of House Bill 10-1284, the Department of Revenue has been deemed the agency to implement and regulate medical marijuana centers, optional premise grow facilities, medical marijuana infused product manufacturers, and all associated occupational licenses.

Following the statutory provisions contained in House Bill 10-1284, the Department, through the state licensing authority, will begin the process of setting up regulations to further define the rules under which the industry will operate. Rule-making will be conducted upon completion of a series of workshops with participation by people who
represent every segment of the industry. As the work groups are established, contact information will be posted and everyone is encourage to contact the person(s) who best represent your specific interests to coordinate your input through the workshops before the formal Rule-making hearing occurs. The Divisionâ??s website will be updated with current rule proposals created by the workgroups and any future dates and locations of the formal rule-making hearings as they become available.

Should you wish to be notified via electronic mail (e-mail) during the rule-making process, please submit your information in an e-mail message to: [email protected].

Include in your subject line and in the message text:
Your contact information via e-mail
Note that you wish to have your name entered into the information list for dissemination from the agency

Well, ya don't walk into a Shopko and pass out Walmart advertisements but I'm giving a pass on this one. There was no promotion of sales nor was there a promotion of a site over this one.

Have good one!:thumbsup:
