How safe is this BOARD? Am I paranoid..

[Garden Knowm]

Well, is there any documented or rumored busts that resulted from posting on this board, or any board?

Garden Knowm Reviewed by Garden Knowm on 09-27-2005. How safe is this BOARD? Am I paranoid.. This is kind of a stupid question.. But is there anyway the LAW could use this board against us.. I mean we post pics, I even see people post their email address and if you think Yahoo mail is really safe you would be fooling yourself. Now I could be paranoid, and its not like I am growing tons to sell.... but if I could get your IP address, which the webserver this is sitting on could easily do, I could probably find out your ISP, and if I had the law on my side, I could probably get some info Rating: 5

No, None that I have ever heard of.. I almost wish I wouldnt have asked the question.. But we smoke weed, we are supposed to be paranoid... I just want to follow all the steps I can.. thats all.. NO DISRESPECT MEANT TO THIS BOARD.. but people would be lying if you said they never thought the same thing...I hope I havent stirred up a hornets nest..

[Garden Knowm]

At least it's not crack! Thats what they should be going after anyway. Marijuana is not a gateway drug, and it helps me with a lot. Bill hicks put it perfect when he talked about people getting in fights while they were high. Move the war on drugs on meth already, I live in a town full of these lying, stealing, shitty ass parent, fuck heads. I would much rather have my kids go to school with a bunch of pot heads then crack heads.

[SeedKing72]

Yeah, I smoked like every day.. and I never wanted to do crack.. That gateway drug shit is just propoganda... It kills me they worry about a natural occuring weed and Cigs and Liq kill way more people.. Just stupid..

This subject has been broached here previously.

The bottom line is...no matter who you are, where you are, whom you are posting as, where you are posting from cannot and never will be completely anonymous.

The internet was designed by the DOD for this very purpose.

Eventually, all posts lead back to the address where the IP is at.

You cannot get around that no matter how slick you try to be.

Seedking was not talking down this board, he was simply asking a question that every single person here asks themselves at one point or another...and if they don't then they probably have other issues in life.

These things being true....

You can use the anonymyzer available at

www.steganos.com and this will make it a whole hell of a lot of shitload of work for anyone trying to track you down.

Is your grow big and huge and do you look like you are doing some serious growing for re-sale or shipping?

Is your grow two or three fricking plants?

Does your local force have the resources to chase you down cuz you;re growing a couple of shitty looking tomato plants?

I can assure you right now, over 75% of resources are being committed to the meth problem raging across the country because of the dumb hillbilly fucks who make and smoke it.

We should thank them for taking the heat off of the real growers.

If they want you bad enuff they will get you.

The question remains, is your grow worth their while?

Headlines like:

"LOCAL COPS BUST LOCAL GROWER AND GET HIS TWO PLANTS" don't make much for newspaper sales and budget rewards in the narc department next year

You need to choose your own destiny.

When you think about it, it is pretty fucking stupid to post pics on the net...especially if you dont have any problems with them .....ROFLMAO

But hey...we're fricking stoners. We're under the influence of this insidious drug....we are compeltely crazy and therefore are not responsible for our actions.

Add to that the pshychosis, paranoia, delusional fantasies, borderline schitzo and anti social deviance make me take zoloft and xanax and this and that and fuck when its all said and done, I can barely remember my fricking name!

So who wants to get me for my 3 LST that I'll prolly fuck up and my hugely failurous SOG....??????

I think they have better bears to hunt than us tomato farmers who grow a couple of plants in a garage closet

HARRDON That was Perfect....THANK YOU.. I am not just a stoner, I have a DEGREE in Computer Science and have several Certifications in certain tehnologies.. I KNOW WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH A COMPUTER.. and TRUST ME People, if they really wanted to find you they could... TRUST ME ON THIS.. HARDDON is right.. I am not being paranoid.. the technology exist...It just aint worth their time to bust a couple of stoners, they want the big score....and your local cops just aint worried about you and your little garden..... They want the Kilos and pounds...

Think about this, HOW fast microsoft find people who writes Viruses.. These people are sitting in some country in old Russia, and these guys are EXPERT programmers.. They do everything they can to prevent from getting caught, and no one care about them until they bring down systems costing companies millions of dollars..Then all of the sudden BAM, they get them... Because Microsoft/Oracle/Cisco/Whoever gets involved and they trace it back somehow.. (loose lips,IP trace, LT Data from star trek, somehow)

Im not trying to be a jerk, I just was wondering.. because I see people showing Hydro Systems with over a hundred plants, and is the USA that would get you busted big time.. I just wanted to know what can I do to protect myself.. just like I want to know what strain should I grow, what light should I use.. it was SIMPLE dialouge.. I LOVE THIS BOARD.. and you would know by my post, I am always agreeable.. I always give props where props is due, I always say to people Perhaps you should do this but Im not an expert.. I always do some research, I always try to help Newbies with the same questions I asked.. I realize people are gonna ask the same ole dumb questions over and over.. just like I did, and just like everyone else did when they got started... BUT I DID LEARN TO USE THE SEARCH FUNCTION.. I LEARNED THAT THE HARD way when I first started, so many people were like you idiot that has allready been asked.. EXCUSE ME..

What are the failsafes of this board, hopefully the server is in a MJ friendly country..I am not saying this is all fact.. I am just wondering.. with my paranoid mind..

everything said here is true.
.com & .net are from the united states, and yes u have admitted to crimes in writting. they wont bust unless they smell it from your car window.

Thank GOD for meth (not really) They are more worried about THAT now... I aint never knew anyone who lost their teeth and scratched for bugs under their skin on good ole mary jane.. God put that weed here for you and me...ITS FROM THE EARTH!!!

[HARDDON]

That is completly crazy and i just burned my one and only plant. I am not taking any chances. I cant believe that users information isn't safeguarded better than that. I also took down my lights and will be mounting them in the garage for more light for my work bench. This will also be my last post. Goodluck to all of you who decide to take a chance.

Sure you burned you one and only plant.

Sure you are gonna use your lights for the workbench.

Sure

C'mon back JamesRobertJoseph.....no one is gonna be after your forest
