I am aware of rule regarding synthesis questions only. I kindly ask for an exception or maybe this is perhaps very distantly regarding the topic. Please let this topic be discussed. :

I was aware of this forum since almost it's very inception. Everyone who knows clearly knows what I mean. I will not share a link to it here because this is not an ad. I'm not here to support here but question it.

Initially it seemed to me a bunch of stupid folks thought it is a great idea to make Dread from the "dark web" on the "clear web" accessible via a normal link. Tor version does exist but is sort of a circus considering JavaScript must be enabled for you to use it which essentially eliminates any real anonymity a securely setup Tor Browser provides by default

Now lets get to the chase. Is anybody willing to share perhaps some insider info on who is behind it? I have read old threads where people mentioned it is most likely setup by Chinese chemical vendors to promote precursors on there. I must say though I find this conflicting somehow. Either that or they are VERY good at hiding the fact. You can find full-on "real conversations" where the vendors and forum admins oppose each other in quite an unusually qualitative manner for scam art. Also the admins overall seem to be individuals. The videos are filmed by an individual in his flat. Can't recall which but you can see the guy chilling on his bed in the background in a reflection from the flask. They use glassware of EU origin which is no secret, SIMAX glassware is seen almost every single time. I bet you it is only gonna be once the guy making these compounds on the video rotates a reagent bottle in a direction which allows to see the retrace code written on the side.

And what the fuck is this clearnet version anyways? It is like a darkweb marketplace except it is literally accessible to an average person using a search engine? I was convinced the thing is a honeypot from the start, until they started to publish the drug synthesis videos. That seemed like an overkill for any law enforcement entity to risk, right??

Seriously how is nobody thinking how they keep the site up ironically literally on a .com domain?? Nobody runs a marketplace with prohibited shit on this level and keeps a fucking .com domain. If you look at archive.org the site can be traced way back to year 2021. You know how many darkweb (yeah hidden service) marketplaces made it past the two year stage without being somehow sus? Precisely I can count them with my own fingers. And those were on the onion network.

Somebody, spit something. When are they shutting down? Where did this comefrom? How can this exist? Literally ask questions people don't enjoy the show, question it.
