Due to the influx of PMMA/PMA pressed pills currently circulating Australia It was mandatory to post this announcement as a warning for all members to keep yourselves on the ball.
We recommend you purchase testing kits as soon as possible this is the right time to make a wise decision in doing so. Pills you or friends may think are safe to consume may not be. PMMA/PMA's effects can mimic MDxx substance's effects and to inexperienced and in some cases experienced users convincing them into thinking it contains MDxx resulting in them consuming lethal doses of PMMA/PMA.
One slip up and it could result in a friend or yourself loosing your life's then being taken to the coroner in a body bag. This is the last thing friends and family of yours would want to see. As much as these things don't have to be mentioned it's the cold truth and reality.
Pressers aren't there to look after you or feed you enjoyable substances. They're there to put money in their back pocket and to take it from yours.
Other country's in the world on the other hand may be in a different situation but we live in Australia and the scene has been dying since 2007 onwards. Seasoned users will tell you the same and our MDMA hasn't felt the same since then, We're missing that magical empathetic and euphoric feelings we use to experience with the pills in Australia at this point in time.
What was once what we call ecstasy that contained MDMA is rarely no longer circulating our streets of Australia.
We once again urge you to test your pills before consuming them. Your life isn't worth gambling with over a pill you're about to eat. Think carefully next time you consider consuming anything before it has been tested.
The following description and link elaborates as to how PMMA/PMA can effect your body. Some of the information may be an early warning sign so please don't hesitate to take yourself to the nearest paramedic or to the nearest possible hospital if you're experiencing any of the early over dose symptoms or effects from this poisonous drug.
It has an extremely low toxicity rating and it only takes a small dose to reach the lethal effects.
Any information anyone has in regards to this drug please do the right thing and call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
Never consume pills that give off warning reactions with the reagents colour chart. Anything excluding MDMA, MDEA and MDA you want to avoid at all costs.

What Kind of Drug Is It?
PMA and PMMA are strong and dangerous drugs that have been linked to a number of deaths in North America, Australia, and Europe. PMA and PMMA are nearly identical in chemical make-up, and their effects on the body are essentially the same. For the purpose of this entry, PMA and PMMA will be discussed as one.
PMA is a synthetic hallucinogen, meaning that it is made in a laboratory and is a mind-altering drug. Derived from the Latin word allucinari, which means "to wander in the mind," hallucinogenic drugs alter the user's perception of reality, thought, or emotion, and can result in alternate states of consciousness or hallucinations, visions or other perceptions of things that are not really present.. PMA was known to have been used for a short time in the early 1970s in the United States and Canada and saw a comeback in the 1990s.
PMA is often sold as another synthetic hallucinogen called ecstasy (MDMA). Illegal drug makers often pass off PMA for ecstasy for several reasons: 1) Ecstasy is a popular party drug among teenagers and young adults; 2) PMA is cheaper to produce than ecstasy; and 3) PMA is similar in appearance, cost, and effect. However, PMA is far more dangerous than ecstasy. Its initial slow effect on the body sometimes causes users to take more of the drug because they think they have taken weak ecstasy. More drug can lead to overdose.
Official Drug Name: Paramethoxyamphetamine (PAH-ruh-meth-AHK-see-am-FETT-uh-meen) p-methoxyamphetamine, 4-methoxyamphetamine (all names for PMA); paramethoxymethamphetamine (PAH-ruh-meth-AHK-see-METH-am-fett-uh-meen; PMMA)
Combining PMA with other drugs, alcohol, or caffeine increases the risk of overdose. Those who have ingested PMA have reported breathing difficulties, nausea, vomiting, muscle spasms, and increased blood pressure and temperature. Those suffering from PMA overdose experience high body temperatures, sometimes resulting in convulsions, coma, and a complete shut down of the organs of the body. This fact has led to the drug's street name "death." Since PMA is sometimes sold as ecstasy, unsuspecting users are unprepared for the potential side effects of the more deadly drug.

There have been several reports of PMMA/PMA costing poor ecstasy users their life's in Australia, We do not need any more to follow in their footsteps.

Below are pieces of information shared by myself which had been sourced through a good friend of mine one of the most highly respected and valuable members here in the community. May god bless you, your family and your friends. A large quantity of users looked up to you here you truly were an inspiration to a lot of people.
Rest in peace Seith. Missing you dearly...

Wikipedia source of information.
PMMA reputedly produces similar effects to PMA, but is apparently slightly more similar to MDMA in effects and has slightly less tendency to produce severe hypothermia, at least at low doses. At higher doses however the side effects and danger of death are just as severe as those of PMA itself.
PMMA is a lesser-known psychedelic drug. It is the 4-methoxy analogue of methamphetamine. PMMA was probably first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin. In his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines i Have Known And Loved), the minimum dosage is listed as 100 mg, and the duration unknown. Shulgin reported that methyl-MA produces an increase in blood pressure and in heart rate, but causes no psychoactive effects, however user reports following the subsequent appearance of this drug on the illicit market as an analogue of "Ecstasy" (MDMA) suggest that PMMA does produce some empathogenic effects. Very little data exists about the pharmacological properties, metabolism, and toxicity of PMMA, and given the known toxicity of the related compound PMA it is likely to have considerable potential to cause harmful side effects or overdose which can be fatal.

Now that this is in the open for all members to view at their will please take this information on board very seriously and I would just like to end this discussion by saying once again PLEASE TEST YOUR PILLS AND INVEST IN A TESTING KIT.

Dear European users,
December 6, 2013, 8:52 am GMTYou are all probably asking yourselves why this thread/report was added to your section.
From the information which has been raised in a discussion to myself there has been quite a high rate of PMA/PMMA circulating in your region.
I was requested to copy and paste my thread/report from the Australian section to provide a warning and information to you all in regards to PMA/PMMA.
For members who still continue to gamble their life's away but consuming anything that they get their hands on. The question you have to ask yourselves is, Is it necessary to be risking a trip inside a body bag to the coroner by eating anything that you come by?
Please we recommend and urge you to purchase testing kits through the links provided on pillreports if you haven't already done so, For extra peace of mind you may also send your pills into E-data so that they may be lab tested for contents contained in the pill.
Thank you for your time.

Thanks very much for the Warning Guys, does anyone know where to get some testing kits in the UK? (im new to MDMA, took my first one 4 weeks ago) it was one of the green Partyflock pills.
December 17, 2013, 4:57 pm GMTFrom a Newbies point of view, i have got hold of one of the Marquis kits, is this enough to avoid PMMA? or should i try and get some of the others?
Thanks
