AKSHULLY that wasn’t a thing in the 2000s, just marketing hype. Rolls back then had between 70 and 120mg of MDMA, and 120 is a basal amount you want to take if you fully want to get rolling.
Now it’s TOTALLY a thing, tons of rolls have 300-400mg in a single pill now. It’s insanity.
Worse than that, that one website dance something that would test pills found that a huge percentage of the "ecstasy" people took didn't contain MDMA. A surprising amount didn't even contain illegal drugs. Just over the counter speed.
Curious. When I last looked (quite a while ago) most of the tested pills were MDMA, with many containing caffeine as well. I guess it varies a lot over time.

Dancesafe.org was it! I'm going back over 20 years to the late 90's early 2000's. I can't comment on the state of ecstasy today, I haven't rolled in over 20 years.
Yah, there were TONS of pipers going around (BZP/TFMPP) when that was legal to buy. I’ve never had one because I could instantly tell when a pill was a piper (shiny, hard, outpress, or shaped.) I could also tell by the taste if I licked it. Headache city apparently.
Damn that is insane. My skin would slink off if I did 300+
Recently did 400-450 each with my partner in a night but over the course of a couple hours… definitely not something to do in public hahaha. We were naked, quivering piles of hedonism, writhing in bed for hours in absolute insane, well, ecstasy. It’s aptly named, that’s for sure.
For once, got incredible sleep afterwards and felt awesome the next day! Thank you, sleep.
