Wp - "Weed Firm is a new "farming" game for the iOS and Android platforms. Your goal in this botanical simulator is to grow a certain plant that is legal in Colorado and illegal almost everywhere else, then sell it to customers of all walks of life, from bums to nurses and everything in between."
IM PLAYIN takes a look at Weed Firm in the wake of it recently being removed from the Apple store.
"It was funny popping on the app store to find that a game called Weed Firm was number one on the charts, sporting a big old marijuana leaf. It’s not the sort of thing you expect to see on the app store. The App store is a place to artsy games or games that appease causal gamers that like to farm pigs and corn, right? Well apparently there was a demand for it and the fact it stood out in the charts meant that it is not about an image but about what the people want, right? Well apparently not, as Apple pulled it from the store … right. While the game developer Manitoba vowed to be back, I wouldn’t be surprised if we continue to see games like this pulled from the app store as well as many other games and app that Apple view as ‘unsavoury’. But what of the game itself?"
Weed Firm has been deleted from the iTunes App Store. Find out why Apple decided to pull the game.
WP - "Well, folks, it's official. Weed Firm is the new Flappy Bird. After hitting the top spot in the App Store, the game's been pulled off of the App Store. Why? Who knows? There are still plenty of pot-related games on the App Store, which is why the pulling of Weed Firm is making absolutely zero sense."
I was gonna sell my game, but I got high.... I was gonna make fat stacks of cash, but I got high.... My games taken off the store and I know why, yeayea, because I got high, because I got high, because I got high.
It's obviously the corporate/government machine trying to keep a harmless substance harmful in the publics eye (even though we know it's bull, the two states that legalized had a "super bowl" for freedoms sake)
I wouldn't say it's a harmless drug. Sure it may not cause cancer like cigarettes or damage the body like alcohol or meth, but it's not "harmless". I've known many people who became addicted to bud, (and yes it is addictive) and it ruined their lives. Others who it made them habitually lazy.
For many it helps, but it's still not something kids should partake it or be used when driving or at work.
OT, probably got removed due to parental complaints, and I imagine there has to be a lot of those.
I'm no advocate nor the standard for what happens when high, but I disagree when people say weed makes you lazy. Sure, at the moment you feel relaxed and unwilling to do anything that relates to manual or physical labor, but most people who will smoke won't even be doing these things unless they want to kill there high and they will be smoking at there own personal time in the first place
If the person gets lazy in life, it's because he or she was lazy and uses weed as a cop out of how it made him/her lazy in the first place.
There is actually zero proof it's addictive. Sure people can get addicted to anything but there is no chemical addiction in marijuana. Find one peer reviewed journal and I might change my mind, but I've searched and all I could find was the usual propaganda articles.

"Addiction" isn't always considered the way cigarettes are addictive. You can be addicted to masturbation, video games, gambling, and anything else. Anything that relates to pleasure, accomplishment, satisfaction or any other emotional feelings can lead to addiction.
I've first hand experienced people who were 'addicted' to weed. Using it to remain calm, to be able to sleep, to work, and to even socialise. They became so dependant on it that they found it extremely hard to function without it.
I agree with Testfire, although its not nearly as dangerous as other bad habits, its still a bad habit,and it is definitely addictive BS when they say its not.
You know, it's soooooo addictive with a depwndancy rate less that coffee, tobacco and alcohol. It's harmless compared to alcohol, which is legal

So.. Food affects all your senses :P I could post links all day from valid sources who can prove scientifically that in moderation it is harmless, if not helpful to the body and mind. Anything is harmful in excess, even water.
Anything can be defended but in truth the drug isn't designed from a corporation with only profits in mind. Many people try to demonize and criminalize marijuana but it's all bullshit it's been proven to be bullshit and until it's legal and taxable from the biggest drug dealer in the world our US government it'll continue being a bullshit excuse to put people in jail instead of rehab. Jail brings in money rehab costs money it's not hard to see why the government chooses jail. This coming from someone who doesn't use it when in reality due to my chronic pain I probably should. Doc's would rather stick me on on Morphine so they can keep the money rolling in that's my reality.
Why play a game on it when you could do it for real here in Colorado? Tell you what though, some of the names they come up with for these Pot Shops here are just awesome.
is it OK to create game under illegal influence? just an opinion
