As a psychiatric nurse I am fairly confident people are not getting needle spiked. Either that or I am really bad at giving intramuscular injections

On slight tangent, I convinced myself I'd been spiked at a work xmas thing at a pub in Farringdon in 2002 because I reacted really strangely to the booze and the evening ended up at st mary's in paddington after falling down the stairs at edgware road tube and some aussie finding me and calling an ambulance. Maybe a case of the subconscious putting the brake on but I've not got seriously drunk in the 20 years since so maybe some good came out of it...

I don't think anyone is suggesting that the stories are made up as such - just the evidence to support that needle spiking is behind these subjective experiences.

Also reports in Berlin of needle spiking, this article explains substances possibly used and size of needle that wouldn't necessary cause bruising.

It's possible but to me seems very high risk to use a needle. Got to carry the needle in to the club, unsheathe it, get in a position so you can inject a muscle, very painfully inject someone with no one noticing then try to take advantage
Just thinking out loud. There's a lot of scumbag out there so who knows?

In a club setting, that seems very unlikely - especially en masse. Maybe at a house party you could be more discreet with that kind of behaviour.
But I guess these reports aren't exclusively about clubs - that's just our own internal biases making that assumption. Drugs are taken both consensually and, unfortunately, non-consensually in a variety of settings

Never ever heard of a minimum spend
surely we can blame putin for that too
jokes aside, i was told that certain things are not as easy to get because they come via the black sea trading routes. we can definitely lay that squarely at his door

Not been out yet but they've been pushing the 'party bag' more and more. Let's be honest your a dealer, there's been more heat this season in some resorts - do you want to take a risk for a small amount (knowing you're going to have to keep going back) or push to do it one.
A close group of friends were there two weeks ago and gave a lot of surplus to people in the hotel on last day which probably supports your point.

Apologies about the paper but relevant info. No deaths to MDMA that I can see 
Another young lad apparently died after a festival around here taking a sleeper, guess that may be part of designer drug category mentioned

Rohypnol in particular can completely leave the system anywhere between 4-12 hours depending on dosageit's really weird though because toxicologists haven't found any traces yet the women were all reporting symptoms of being drugged (?)
Spain reports rash of ‘needle spiking’ attacks on women
BARCELONA — Spanish police are investigating a string of cases of women being injected with possibly spiked syringes in crowded clubs, following similar incidents in Britain andnewsinfo.inquirer.net

Benzo's are more likely to be crushed and slipped in a drink. The effect would be amplified if mixed with alcohol or MDMA though it's an incredibly dangerous thing to do in a club setting because if you mix diazepam, tamazepam or nitrazepam with decent quality cocaine it would be like playing heart attack roulette as your brain chemistry tries to cope with your system trying to pull in two different directions at once.

Ha i also had an experience on an xmas night out where i was 99% sure i was spiked. As someone who can handle the booze till a certain point it definitley wasn’t just drink! Wasn’t pleasant at allOn slight tangent, I convinced myself I'd been spiked at a work xmas thing at a pub in Farringdon in 2002 because I reacted really strangely to the booze and the evening ended up at st mary's in paddington after falling down the stairs at edgware road tube and some aussie finding me and calling an ambulance.
