Another funny story is I remember overgrow. Anyone else?
Talk about nostalgia, do you remember "The Hive." Now that place is legendary. The archive for it is still available. I will post up a link once I find it again!

where does the money go?
The money goes to the sites' owner. It is used to make server and equipment upgrades, as well as contributing to their overall legal defense fund.

sometimes i fear the shroomery/growery will go down like some of the other places on the net
Likewise. It will be a sad day.
-------------------------------------------
I stopped supporting when they disabled my PM's for MHBound's retarded bullshit. I will not likely sponsor this site again. I have donated well over 100 bucks over my time here as well as purchasing Shroomery merchandise. I am very thankful for all the information I have learned and for the existence of such great communities. However, I do think that veterans do deserve a bit better treatment.
I mean, come on, to never be able to PM anyone on the site again because of a retard junky is a tad excessive. imo. Especially considering all the contributions I have made and continue to make

I dont necessarily like the community there but it is the best resource available in terms of a forum for drug information
Does anyone happen to have the Hive archive saved?

But also prevents them from having the most up-to-date information
I know that is about the only beef a lot of people have with erowid is that it is not updated often enough. It's a great resource though. Where I normally start if I am looking for general information

Does having a supporter account grant you instant accsess to the marketplace/lot?
No. But you arent missing anything anyways. It's dead.

so what exactly would i be getting with my supporter account?
A supporter account is a way for members to DONATE money to help keep this site functional, pay the admins, provide money for a defense legal fund, and to buy new hardware to support the growing communities
Now to your question. At the Growery you get several things; you get an @growery.org email address which is pretty cool although the email service itself is pretty shitty (granted it's been a year or more since my last supporter account), you get to have the little "S" tag next to your name so everyone knows you support the site, get to change the color of your name, slightly larger avatar, increased upload limit for images and 1 free name change.
That's off the top of my head, some things could have changed. If you purchase it at the Shroomery, you get the same features but also granted access to about half dozen "secret" forums.

What 'secret' forums do you get to see at the shroomery?
you'll have to buy a cheap 1 month pass. I have no memory of the supporter forums. I do remember a Porn form, Anything Goes forum, Supporter chat forum, and maybe an advance computing forum
edit- grateful, your signature is fucking gay

Not worth the moneys
not worth the money if you are only interested about what you are getting in return, but if you want to financially help a website that you use then go for it.
Ive donated a couple times over my total 5 1/2 years of membership. I feel every "regular" should support the site occasionally, regardless of any differences you're having.
