: : : : I have been sitting back watching the board for a while, only making a few posts where I think I might help, watching to see which direction we're all heading now. I like the idea of the new search engine, it will help reduce the amount of repitition on the board. All we need now is a link at the top of the board that will inform newcomers of the formalities and etiquette on our little hangout. But that's not the subject of this post.
: : : : What has me worried is the lack of understanding that some people have when it comes to sources for steroids. So, for the last time I'm going to say this, and I know most of you will back me up on it; if you find a source you think is legit, for fuck sake's, KEEP IT TO YOURSELF!!!! Don't post it on this board, don't email everyone and their dog, don't tell everyone at your gym or local Y. Consider yourself fortunate to have found one and know that you now belong to the priveleged few. When a legit source source goes public, whether it's because BP publishes it in MM2K, you see it on the board, or someone is handing it out, the end result is the same. The loss of the source. Nothing will shut it down faster. If you want to find out if it's real, place a small order and hope for the best. If you can't afford to lose a little, then you have no business even trying steroids.
: : : : Since I'm on the subject, I might as well discuss the authorities and their standing on all this. Every country has their own federal agency that controls steroids in one way or another. For us Canadians it's the RCMP, for the Americans it's usually the DEA, and every other country has their respectful control. The DEA is not the be all to end all of law enforcement as far as steroids are concerned (although most most Americans like to think so). They do however like to flex their political muscle and force other governments to close down their own sources (hence Skouvara and Mougios). Even in countries where steroids are legal to purchase and use personally, it is still a felony to export steroids out of the country, and another felony to import them into a country where they are not legal.
: : : : The authorities in general are not a bunch of idiots. They are only enforcing the laws that the politicians make. Without getting into a huge political or moral debate, that's usually how it works. The cops do know about everything that goes on. There are various authorities in various countries who like to watch the magazines and now the internet and read everything we write. They have huge databases with more info on each of us then you can imagine. They know everything that goes on. They will act as a regular guy when asking for a price list via mail or email, or responding to ads. They can find out where you are very easily. Don't think that using an anonymous account, a hotmail account or cool sounding alias will protect you. Every little detail is encrypted in a little packet of information that accompanies all your posts and emails that can easily lead authorities to you. All they need is probable cause and some type of warrant ( in some countries they don't even need that). The authorities are regular guys too. They go home and live the same lives we do. They know what we're up too. How do I know all this? Common sense is obvious first off. Secondly, my father is a high ranking police officer on a muncipal force and gives me privy to such info.
: : : : My point to all of this is simple. Think before you do something. Don't do anything stupid like admitting you have steroids ( if they're controlled in your country ), offer to sell steroids, or tell everyone that you are taking them. It is an admission of guilt for billions to read. Instead, use the phrase "my friend has...", or "I know this guy..." instead. Protect yourself and others. Don't spread good sources around. We have all been getting careless lately. I think if we all act smart and watch how we word our questions and responses we will all be better off.
: : : : I wish I had Trek's abililty to word this all in a more eloquent way, but I think you all get the idea. Now all I need is a catchy signature to close with, one that suits me and doesn't sound dorky every time you read it. Until then, I'll just sign it,
: : : : Juice Monkey

: Excellent advice Juice Monkey. Every time I see someone post
: a source, it makes me cringe. We should keep our discussions limited
: to the theoretical use of A.S. and other performance enhancing drugs.
Couldn't have said it better myself!!!! Juice Monkey is right on the money
on this one...heed the advice.
Stay Strong
Regards.
