Can anyone add information about:

• names / synonyms
• molecule
• dose
• duration
• side effects
• legal status
• have there been any reported incidents with this compound?
• since when has this research chemical been available?
• stability of the molecule / compound

Experiences with 2C-T-2 should be posted here: 2C-T-2 experiences
These documents about 2C-T-2 are in the file archive

The research chemical forums will undergo quite some cleaning and improving in the coming time. I need your input to decide on some things for the structure of the research chemical forums and their functions.

For starters I'd like to know this:
Every research chemical discussed should at least have two threads:
- a 'experiences' thread
- a 'drug info' thread

What information should a experiences thread at least contain? So far I have come up with:

• body weight & gender
• dose taken
• route of administration
• duration of main effects
• main effects
• side effects
• after effects
• rating of the experience
• addictive qualities / abuse potential

What information should a drug info thread at least contain? So far I have come up with:

• names / synonyms
• molecule
• dose
• duration
• side effects
• have there been any reported incidents with this compound?
• since when has this research chemical been available?
• legal status
• stability of the molecule / compound

Anything else?

[dr ACE]

you could add - 'abuse potenial/tolarance' to the 'experience thread'

the effects could be split in 3/4 parts - positive,negative,neutral,life changing?

[joachimist]

for the experience thread, you may add :

• context ( indoor / outdoor / party / alone / with friends / day / night ... )

• combination with other drugs (including treatment, alcohol, cannabis, everything )

• maybe a general overview / classification of the effects :
  for exemple a yes or no, or a poll, or a notation /10 for each of typical effect :

. closed eyes visuals
. color changes
. visual deformation
. open eye visual
. empathogen
. entactogen
. entheogen
. anxiogen
. stimulant
. depressive
. sedative
. dissociative
. tachycardiogen
etc....

• the same can be done with long time effects like :

. psychologicaly addictive
. physicaly addictive
. tolerance
. various health problems

_________________________________________

For the drug info thread, maybe add

• 2D and/or 3D molecular representation
• legal status in various countries

good suggestions

[chrisn]

I would suggest perhaps three threads:
experiences
general info
effects and ratings survey, ongoing, like what illuminati_boy did back in the day

[Alfa]

I have added weight and gender to experience threads and I have updated the OP with the suggestions of Dr.Ace and Joachimist.

Chris; you know what I am up to...

[Nagognog2]

Do keep in mind the chemistry regards it's (the RC in question) relatives. eg: phenethylamine (mescaline derivative), tryptamine (indole-class), or piperazine structure.

[trptamene]

Alfa,

If there is not a info-dedicated drug for a particular drug, should this be added with an OP similar to:

Experiences with ethylone should be posted here: Ethylone (bk-MDEA) trip reports
The following documents about this substance are in the file archive: none yet.

?

And add the molecule along with it? What about the pihkal/tihkal entry. I know you have said all of the entries of books 2 were in on D-F, but I don't see them all. Like, 2c-t-2 and 2c-t-7, I can't find info dedicated threads or the pihkal entries for these. Also, I have noticed that many of the threads you start that I think are dedicated for info, are sometimes simply just the pihkal/tihkal entry and sometimes the post is as given as above.

I guess I am just curious as to how you are wanting drug information organized with regards to us inserting the molecules in specific threads and what these threads are and if they are to contain the pihkal/tihkal entry?

[Alfa]

That's 100% correct: Each substance should have a 'drug info' thread and a 'experiences' thread. The OP of the drug info thread should ideally contain the above information, pihkal/ tihkal entry and molecule. Feel free to add threads. Please select the appropriate thread prefix.

[Alfa]

Note that when creating experience threads, include a similar text as this:

Please add your experiences with 4-meo-mipt here. Please add dosage, route and duration to the top of your post like this:

Info about this drug (other than experiences) should be discussed here: 4-meo-mipt
The following documents about this substance are in the file archive: none yet.

When posting a experience, please describe:

• body weight & gender
• dose taken
• route of administration
• Setting: in what environment it was taken.
• duration of main effects
• main effects
• side effects
• after effects
• rating of the experience
• addictive qualities / abuse potential

[trptamene]

Should we focus the experience thread such that it says we only want true experience reports (i.e. not in combination)?

Here is what I have put in the OP on my EIPT experiences thread:

Originally Posted by trptamene

Posting your experience of a drug:

Please add dosage, route and duration to the top of your post like this:

When posting your experience with a drug or multiple drugs, please consider to make your description as complete as possible. To do this you
can describe:

What drug(s) you took.
How much you took.
In what setting, environment you took it.
The time after you first noticed effects. (also called onset)
The duration of the main effects.
The duration of the secondary effects.
If there where any side effects, mentally or physicially.
Time when effects where gone.
Aftereffect, like afterglow, etc.
Overall conclusion and rating of the experience.

We are not expecting you to write a lengthy dissertation, just a short summary of experiences.

It needs to be edited to flow better and I need to add the thing about the archive, but other than that is this what you are essentially looking for? Also, if combination reports are not wanted where should I direct people for those reports?

[Alfa]

I have updated post number 9.

[trptamene]

I think that looks really good. I would just add

"any other valuable information"

at the very end.

[trptamene]

On threads like this:

Drug info - 2c-c

where drug info threads have been created by you with just the pihkal entry, I think something like this:

• names / synonyms
• molecule
• dose
• duration
• side effects
• have there been any reported incidents with this compound?
• since when has this research chemical been available?
• legal status
• stability of the molecule / compound

Experiences with 2C-I should be posted here: 2C-I experiences

Names: 4-iodo-2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine, 2C-I
IUPAC: 2-[4-(iodo)-2,5-dimethoxyphenyl]ethanamine

should be added to the OP, along with the molecule which I have ready as a jpeg. Do you just want me to just make a post like this along with the molecules attached at the end of the thread and then let you take care of it since you are usually the OP in these threads?


EDIT:

Can an admin or mod please add the "experiences" prefix to the phenethylamines forum please.

[Alfa]

Yes, that would be helpful.
I added a experiences prefix.
I also added the following text to the drug info standard text:

The following documents about this substance are in the file archive: none yet.

Ideally this can be done like this:

These documents about 2C-T-7 are in the file archive

as this includes a search in the file archive on the word "2C-T-7". But if it is not clear to you how to do this, then never mind.

I have went ahead and added this to both the experience and drug info threads for the ones I have added recently. I do not see the experiences prefix in the phen's forum, does it take some time to update?

[Alfa]

oops. they are present now.

[grandbaby]

Should the "info" thread include an explicit questionnaire (maybe even a poll) that mimics Illuminati Boy's RC Evaluation questionnaires of last year? The continued gathering of that information might be of interest to someone who wishes to collate and interpret it in the future.

[Alfa]

Are you psychic?

BTW: it would also be a good idea, if those of you that have knowledge of the stability of compounds, would comment on this in the drug info threads. Unstable compounds may degrade fast / slow and may even degrade to illegal or toxic compounds. Therefore this is relevant information for the 'drug info' threads. I have added this for drug info threads:

• have there been any reported incidents with this compound?
• since when has this research chemical been available?
• stability of the molecule / compound

Thusfar mint boi and trptamene have been making molecules. trptamene and snapper are creating new threads per substance. This is great help. A lot needs to be done to get the research chemical forums on the level i want them to be.

trptamene: Using the syntaxt "the following documents about this substance are in the file archive: none yet" makes no sense when there are documents. Maybe it's best to use:

These documents about 2C-T-7 are in the file archive

[trptamene]

Ahh yes, I figured some of these would have stuff in the archive, I was just trying to get threads made for the molecules I had made and was gonna go back and edit all these...but It does make sense to do it as I go along, so I will go back and edit these.

For chemicals that do have files in the archive, should I link every file in this type of fashion:

the following documents about this substance are in the file archive: EU Risk Assessment of 2C-T-7, Hallucinogen-Like Actions of 2C-T-7 in Mice an Rats (Fantegrossi et al, 2004) ....

Or simply just link the search in the manner you said?

Also, does this mean updating this post whenever an article that fits the RC is added. This is no problem, but seems like it might take a long time, but I guess if one were to just go through and do this monthly it might not be too bad.

[Alfa]

just the search link will do. This way we will not need to update the post with every new file.

[Alfa]

To avoid confusion over dosage and accidental intake of extreme doses, please put the example listing of dosage, route and duration in the experience threads in quotes like this:

Originally Posted by EXAMPLE

Dosage: 35 mg
Route: Orally
Duration: 4 hours

[~lostgurl~]

The links to the documents in the archive should all be identical to the one below, with only the name of the research chemical contained in the link changed: http://www.drugs-forum.com/forum/local_links_search.php?action=show&search=ethylone&keys=1&searchdate=0

Once you have the correct link you can rename it "File Archive Documents about [insert drug here]" Or whatever phrase you decide to use, as long as it is the same for all substances. The above phrase fits in with the current links for video & audio that are found in forum headers, so I personally think it is the best choice.

Note: The red is just to highlight the word that needs to replaced.

I will go back and try to update all of these, this is a good idea. Some poor nieve soul takes 35mg 2c-e we could have a prob on our hands.

or the forum whould be one reasercher down, and the poor nieve soul porbably would'nt make it online for a while,or anything else for that matter

2C-E deserves allot of respect and if you don't it will kick you in the arse lol

don't think my pet monkey henry will venture into that realm of 'psycadelicness' for a long time., if ever again heavy duty shit!

[trptamene]

Alfa:

In the pihkal/tihkal entries for the drug info dedicated threads I noticed you are not including the synthetic part. I realize the synthesis says nothing about the chemical other than how to get to it, but are threads containing these entries supposed to be drugs-forum archive of these books? If this is mean to be our archive of this work then the synthesis should probably be included.
