Hare Krsna! I was wondering what if one doesn't ever follow the regulative principles? I mean, I have a bad drug addiction and what if I never stop? Will Krsna kick me out or will I be just constantly serving Krsna and maya? What will happen? All glories to Prabhupada! Hare Krsna!

Hare Krsna Prabhuji,
PAMHO.
Effective chanting can go a long way to remove the biggest most chroic kind of addiction. ISKCON as a movement started by making hippies happys.
If you think you will live with the drug addiction and not follow the instructions given by Srila Prabhupada, then its your choice.
The day you decide Krsna is your priority, other things will take back seat. You are not able to kick the habit of drugs because you dont want to.
Chant sincerely and hear your own voice attentively. The rest will follow.
Haribol,
Your servant,

Everyone is always serving Krishna always.Some service is relishable and some is terrible.
e.g when jaya/vijaya serve in vaikuntha,there service is relishable to them...such service is also relished by Krishna..
when jaya/vijaya serve Krishna in antagonistic way then such service is not relishable by them but still such service is relished by Krishna.
So Krishna does not have a problem if you want to take on infinite number of material bodies by not following the directions given by acharyas.The painful experiences related to material bodies are your problem alone.
On another note drug addiction can't be overcome but can be transcended.(especially in this age of kali)
