We're getting a lot of new sign-ups, so I've decided to write a bit about what we hope to achieve content-wise and organizationally here at Hotbox.

First of all, for those new and old alike — welcome to the site! We've done a lot lately to make the software much more usable and have plans to provide multi-platform mobile functionality for content submission in the future. Please bear with us as we work out the few remaining bugs in the system; what we're doing is a little at the edge of our system's capabilities and it's taken some effort to get it to where it is now (Also: Big Thank-You to the JomSocial development team, who recently helped us troubleshoot an issue with our community software). 

Here's what we're trying to accomplish. Support for marijuana policy reform is anywhere from 44-60% in favour of decrim/legalization, meaning that it's only a matter of time before the issue reaches supermajority status and keeping the same ludicrous penalties for cultivating a simple plant will appear as insane as it actually is. The liberalization of drug laws in the United States will cause a ripple effect throughout the developed world, insomuch as one of the most ardent supporters of zero-tolerance drug policy will have severely changed its course.
