Hi
Rampant wasnt implying open as in the full view of other members that would be classed as open,rampant was meant as excessive or large amount of patrons affected by drugs.I would of thought taking them in full view or in the toilet in private was the same i dont think a zero tolerance policy was meant to differenciate between location of ingestion of the substance.Secondly i am not a give up grub who feels the need to dob in people who live differently from me.My comments are posted on a discussion forum between like minded people where i wanted to know others thoughts,if as i beleive they are facts from personal observation they are they same as any other constructive criticism offered about any place or thing,your post tends to give the impression im full of s*** but i assure you i didnt just decide to write the post for no reason,i think maybe your defending the owner through loyalty not from an educated or unbiased outlook.Neither is it related to the incident mentioned about pot smoking once again you made a personal accusation based upon your opion not the facts at hand.

Hi Snorkell
A very interesting response, I must have missed where I made a personal accusation of any kind.
The original post, unless based on personal observation of someone taking drugs, is also personal opinion not fact.
My responses were based on my own personal observations as well as some knowledge of the Owner and the Security guys views on drug taking on the premises.
The comment that maybe your post was related to the incident that lead to the expulsion of the three pot-smokers was based on the time of your post. It was not personal - you may well have seen them lighting up but were not aware they were asked to leave a short time later.
I was clear that I had only visited the club a few times recently , I and those with me have never noticed anyone behaving strangely enough to conclude they were drugged up (a few that had a little too much wine maybe).
If there were so many people so obviously drugged up that you could call this rampant, I find it odd that B or P did not notice, but on a busy night unless they are acting in an obnoxious manner they might not.
If they were acting in a way that would make it obvious and being anti-social then the worst would be they would be asked to leave, exactly the same as anyone being obnoxious or causing problems due to drunkeness or any other reason.
So if rampant means you didn't see anyone actually take drugs on the premises and they weren't acting in a way to bring them to the attention of the owner or security - well I am puzzled how rampant that can be?
Why I suggested you bring this to the attention of the security guy or the owner is that they would only be asked to leave for everyone's good.
However your first post just gives those in authority who dislike adult clubs an excuse to raid the premises, patrons don't come back and we have one less adult venue. They can also use that as an excuse to raid other adult clubs.
That was my concern.
