• YoU GuYz ArE GrEaT!!
  I think your web page is great! I've been raving and dropping E for awhile now and you gave really helpful information for first timers who need to be informed on the dangers of drugs. I live in Cali and usually rave in Oakland. There have been a lot of first timers since the rave scene became more main stream and they are always worried that its just one big drug fest, and if they do end up doing exstacy they don't know how to handle it. Your page gives useful tips and will help ravers in the long run. Keep it up because as a raver I know how good it feels to know that there are people out there trying to watch out for us instead of giving out bad information. It feels safe to know that we can come on here and find out things about drugs or raves that we often question and really don't want to go by what our friends say. Thanx again!!

• Hello. Thanks for promoting such a worthy cause. I was wondering if you would be interested in exchanging links with a store i run in Seattle USA called Raverbooks. Check us out www.raverbooks.com and let me know. Thanks!!
  
  
• nice site!
  You guyz have done an excellent job on telling information on drugz. Especially the one where it tells one what to do if their friend is coming down. The reason why, my friends did E (one of them did 3 in a night!) and I had no idea what to do during and after they took it. But now I know. Also, I am from Canada (Toronto, I'm sure you've heard of it, it's only the best rave scene in the world) and there is no age limit here to go to raves. I'm 15 and I've been raving since 14; I've seen an 8 year old at a party once. I wonder why South Africa, the US and others have place limits on raving. In my opinion, it just gives people an impression that raves are bad and drug-infested. But they're not, well, it's the people who bring in the drugs that are to blame for the, "problem" that the media have
  portrayed. But, basically, raves are fun. No one (well, at least here) will ever force you to take any drugs. I've stayed sober at all the parties I go to. People come up to me and ask, "Do you wanna pop E?" I just say, "No thanx" and they say OK and then leave. That's it. I guess more people need to be educated about drugs and pressure. Anyways, this is a great site to go to. Keep it up!

• E information !!
  You have a great website!!! You kick ass!! Thanks so much for putting out the great information. I have never taken drugs in my entire life until the last 3 months. I tried E for the first time a few months ago. I liked the way that it made me feel and have tried it a few more times. Luckily, I have always been in a loving environment and have had no bad problems. I have always been curious about what I was taking and its affects it could be having on me longterm. Thanks to your website, I feel far more educated about the subject. I will be forwarding on your web site to many of my friends.

• Thank You
  
  It's hard to tell the truth from word of mouth you hear at parties of what's in what. I believe a thank you is order- you have cleared up some of my misconceptions, assumptions and just plain naiveness... I m definetly going
  to pass this info on to others i know so we are more knowledgable partiers!!
  
  Thank you!!! PLUR!!!!!!

• Ravers in Toronto
  
  I congratulate you on trying to educate the Rave community. I have been partying in Toronto, Canada for 5 years and I have seen the scene slide. Many KIDS coming to our parities doing the Drugs in overly excessive
  amounts and dying. Sadly they don't seem to care that because of the increasing amounts of overdoses and deaths, the mayor is making it so parities have to shut down by 3:00 am when the bars close. I find this
  rather disturbing. We have groups that come in and try to educate the partyers but if they don't want to listen it's almost no use. I have always been curious of what the drugs do to a person's mind and body.
  How do we make them curious?

• Greetings from Finland
  
  Thanks for all information. It`s very great that somebody wants to see this much of work to share all the knowledge about stuffs.
  
  Here in Finland the techno scene is rising slowly, but ravers have get the basic thing of the parties; XTC etc...
  
  Thats why we see so much smiling faces, we can do love and peace, change the world on next century. I wish all the best for all of you.

• Well DONE!!!
  
  Hi guys,
  
  I'm a 25 year old professional who has taken Acid on a regular basis (once a month) for the last three years and one of my biggest gripes has been that no one is prepared to tell us what IS so bad about drugs...
  
  Instead we are just told don't do it, its BAD, when we all know we will anyway. The only difference is you have no ammunition going into it. I think your site is really great to let people like myself know exactly what the side effects are and how to prepare and how to choose!!!

• You guys are great!
  
  Thank you, thank you, thank you. I'm sure that I speak for plenty of ravers when I say that you guys are doing a great job. I have not been on the Rave seen for long and still feel a bit scared at times. I feel a lot more at ease though knowing that there is an organisation like yours keeping an watchful eye.
  
  I found your WebPage two nights ago and cashé'd the entire site onto my hard drive. * I must admit though that I have never heard of Rave Safe till this time *. I found your web page most informative. What I appreciate most is that you seem to publish HONEST information (no bullshit). I support that fact that you don't promote neither condemn the use of drugs.
  
  Please don't let us down, keep up the excellent work.
  
  Most Kind Regards,
  Glen.

• good job
  
  I think that offering a site like this is the best thing you can do for us party kids who want to experience the rave scene to its fullest and be safe and suffer from as min. of the effects as possible or at least understand the risks involved.

  I have to thankyou for the information contained in your site. My 11 year old daughter is required to do a report on Herion for school. I found all of your information helpful and a site that was very easy to move around in.
  
  Thanks once again.

• awareness is the key , thanks .
  
  This is a quick note from Australia thanking your team for a lot of useful and grief saving information contained in your website . You helped me shed many apprehensions about E and answered questions that you can't ask readily , not in OZ anyway . I found useful info quite hard to come by .
  
  I was wondering if there was a RaveSafe program active in Australia , and if so where could they be found ? Alternatively , if no such guidance exists ( which I found to be true ) how can it be achieved ?
  
  The reason I ask is that I believe the best prevention is awareness and if we can keep just a little check on reality when we are 'pilling' everyone can lose their mind in complete confidence and we can change it from ecstasy to euphoria !

• thank you so much!
  
  Hello there Rave Safe people, i just had to let you know that what you are doing is a wonderful thing!! There are way to many ravers out there, doing the drugs, and not having a clue of what these drugs can do to them! I have lost way to many friends to drug addiction and death (from overdosing) and its really good to see that someone else out there cares about it, and is trying to do something about it! Thank you so much, once again, you hold my highest respect!

• thank you:)
  
  I just wanted to say thank you for all the great info on the drugs and effects! Even my computer-stupid boyfriend is intersted in your site!!! I think its good that there is some place all the nieve lil ravers can go to learn about all the chemicals they are injecting into their bodies... My only problem? You aren't known enough!!!! Send some information packets to clubs, so they can get handed out at the door, along with all the flyers... I know we can use them at the club I work at in Philly, where kids are over doing it everyday!!! If you have any packets to hand out, please send them this way!!!! Thank you and keep up the fierce site!

  Hi..
  Yes I would love to be apart of the RaveSafe community..helping others to be
  safe and make sure that they are keen with the knowledge of the drugs that are
  being taken unto themselves. I would love to be apart of this and I think that
  what your site has to offer is great. I congratulate your concern. Once again,
  I hope you consider me as a candidate for your volunteer program. I am in
  Toronto, and toronto of course has many parties and it is rapidly growing.
  
  Thanks for your time..

• Dear RaveSafe
  
  I think what you guys do is fantastic! I just visited your website through a link from a Toronto rave site and spent over 2 hours at the site! Your site taught me a lot of things that I never knew and am glad that I now know. I am throughly impressed with your writings on bad trips. It seems that whatever you guys speak of, you nail the
  topic right on. I noticed that you are based in South Africa and talk a lot about RaveSafe booths at Raves. I've been to enough Raves here in Toronto and have never seen 'come down' or 'bad trip' booths like the ones you speak of. However I do think that they are absoloutley necessary. I'd love to maybe start up something here in Toronto that resembles what you have. Maybe it could even be connected to RaveSafe somehow? If you could send me some info it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks again and keep up the good work!
