GC Blade Helpline

I don't care what side of the arguement anyone was on; Next time take it out on PMs, away from a thread that is totally designated for something else, please.

If you were to walk in to a waiting room at a doctors/therapists/whatever, and saw all kinds of fighting, would you want help from there?

Get it the fuck off my thread. Seriously. Start deleting.

Second of all... I really do understand the reasons for this not being stickied... but, I whole heartedly believe if it is not stickied, I am either going to have to be allowed to do a daily bump (which would be hard, as I hardly even visit GC on a daily basis... and it's my f'n homepage,) or I don't know if it will be worth while writing up the new updates for one of the mods to update the original post for me.

If someone can ask if marijuana would help their migraines, possibly asking from a place where no MM program is in place, how could one worry about the legal implications (assuming potential legal implications are the main reason this was de-stickied) of someone helping someone in a non-professional atmosphere, just because they're having a rough day?

Please hear it out...

I dont understand why it is de-stickied can you explain?

I'm going to unstick this thread. It's a great idea to help your fellow stoners and it rocks that we actually have true Blades here that want to help. It's just that being stuck makes it seem like it's a grasscity.com thing rather than a Blades-wanting-to-help thing.

However, not everyone has the means or courage to do so. I'm not about to mark the "suicide" threads as SPAM as was suggested. The City is a peaceful, loving and caring community and we can't turn our backs on our fellow Blades.

That would be part of it.

I'm personally guessing SJ wouldn't really like the idea of legal troubles being brought against him by someone who sought help through our helpline, and then commited suicide, etc, instead of seeking professional help.

Floydian, this is your baby but I think it would be more visible in Seasoned Tokers because it won't get lost as quick as it does in the General forum. The General forum is just too overcrowded with general stuff.

Also, this thread can be bumped as much as necessary as long as it isn't done to increase post count. If it's legitimate, then cool. Maybe the Blades that are on the list can take turns with a daily bump. I don't know. I don't want the thread to die, though. We have too many people who could use the support.

Floydian, when you need to update the list, forward the info to TokinBlue, please.

(I apologize for the time limit on edits but that's how SJ wants it.)

I'd be fine with it being moved... it would be more visible, but it'd be off topic in Seasoned Tokers... Hell, go ahead and move it if you'd like, 'spose it can always be moved back.

The thing with the edits is no problem... I'll just have to request everyones patience with me forwarding the updates.

If any mod happens to stop by and has some free time, they are perfectly welcome to just edit it for me, if they see any new additions since the last. It's obviously pretty simple to see how the updates are made, just add their name to the list and then their contacts.

Other than that, I will be happy to send them off to Tokin. I will also try to bump it more (when needed) knowing it'll be alright. Doubt anyone participating in this thread cares about its post count.

We won't let it die.

Edit; As far as visibility, a little more support from people linking in their signatures would probably help loads...

I'll move it. Let me know in a week or so if you want it elsewhere.


I also left a 6 month redirect in General so people will know where it went.


Baker has this thread. I could ask if he'd like to make a new thread and we could add the Helpline link to it and then close it to discussion so the main points of the thread will stick out. Just a suggestion, of course.

RMJL i think that instead of seasoned tokers this thread might be better off in Real Life Stories. Like the Seasoned forum there isnt too much activity there and if someone is depressed they are more likely to talk about their real life issue on that one. just my opinion but i do strongly believe it would have much more benefit there than here.

also my name could still get added to the list:
AIM: YouReceiveThis
E-Mail: EliteMMA@hotmail.com
