Well, ecstasy gives you a high by dumping your reserve of serotonin into your brain, so someone such as myself that has low serotonin never really got anything out of it. It was always a waste of money for me, except for the time I combined it with opiates.
One thing to keep in mind(if this hypothetical person became inclined to consume it) is to drink lots of water, because dehydration is a big concern.
The biggest risk you take with ecstasy is that it is made on the street and most of the time it is cut with other drugs or even toxic things you would never consider ingesting. There's actually an organization that goes around to raves and does testing on people's pills to inform the person of exactly what they are taking.
Also, since the drug empties the serotonin reserves, there are many people that experience moderate to severe depression for next couple of days. I've met people that it was bad enough that they won't take the drug anymore.
Bottom line, and this is simply my opinion, you are better off to save your money. I have, however, met lots of people that absolutely love it.
