Hi,

I'm politely requesting a promotion. My reasons are twofold. Firstly I've spent years researching thanks to this forum and would like to participate in the wider range of discussions that are going on presently. I feel I could have something to offer aside from questions. For example the alcohol extraction experiments in the green sub forum.

Secondly I have noticed some posts where people are talking about nitrous oxide and how deep it can take you. It does take you very deep. However I've also seen people talking about tolerance and the nature of it changing, lessening. I have a lot of experience with this. It put me in hospital. I was incredibly reckless with a substance I assumed to be safe but I've since found out the changing nature was my system starting to break down. I was in hospital for a month, I was paralysed. If I'd waited another day I would have been on a respirator. Getting to this point is gradual and the warning signs easy to miss. It creeps up on you. I've read posts where I suspect this is happening to others and I would like to be able to participate in those threads to warn people about what might be happening to them. B12 is a complicated vitamin, I've learnt a lot about it and it's importance. I know the tests you need to ask for (blood serum isn't enough) and I would like to share this information. I think at least one member here could be at the start of his spinal cord starting to decay. I think an ability to post warnings from a position of experience would be valuable in terms of harm reduction.

It taught me a hard, brutal lesson and I'd very much like to help people avoid what I went through.

Best regards,
B
