I know that I have'nt been using this board that long but I guess I'm gonna throw my 2 cents in. I keep seeing these guys getting flamed when they ask questions that those who are more experienced already know the answer to.They get dogged out and told to go do a search.My opinion is that , what if someone who has more knowledge than the almighty flamers did'nt see a post and did'nt get to put his opinion in on the matter. Then the less experienced BB would miss out on that extra knowledge if he did'nt repost the topic.More info becomes apparent every day in this game, and those searching for it come here to find it.So i'm of the opinion that if somebody thinks that they know it all and would get pestered by someone elses search for info, Don't answer there post, and if it still bothers you that much that someone else isn't up to par with your knowledge of the sport then find another board where only professional juicers exist.     | ||

I think some people are on a little to much TEST. That is why they are so touchy. Some people do need to calm down. I heard my thread got flamed cause they thought i was source posting. When i didn't think i was and it got deleted. Oh well whatever. G-Man | ||

1. Internet courage. 2. Steroid-heightened attitude/aggression. 3. When people are here for a long time, they think they have 'power' over this board. | ||

Flaming seems to come form the newer members who are trying hard to fit in. They answer every post since they think if you have many posts you know your shit. Flaming also comes from those who have been here a while and have built a reputation on being accurate, knowing there shit, and helping others out. That is earned never given. That said I get many e mails and always take the time to answer any questions from new or not so new members. Always have alway will. What pisses me off is seeing folks answer questions on I think . I only answer questions I know based on either personal experience or research. I never answer a question based on what someone else thinks. I come un-glued when I see a post anser it and than watch that person bump it for more of the same I just stated. That is total bullshit. I also hate giving information and having someone say well each amp is different, is this real etc. If I answer it than there is a 100% chance I have tried it and it works. Anyway no test rage from me just as this board grows we seem to attract more and more non bodybuilders looking to abuse drugs and not do the research.

Even though I think the flaming gets a bit excessive, there is something to be said for the value of not having 5000 posts with the same question being asked, which allows the more interesting posts some breathing room. | ||

WELL SAID! I THINK EVERYBODY INCLUDING ME SHOULD BE ABLE TO ASK ANY QUESTION THEY WANT WITHOUT REPROACH. ELITE IS PROBABLY THE MOST FLAMING BOARD I HAVE EVER SEEN. THE BEST WAY TO RESPOND TO A RETARDED QUESTION IS TO NOT RESPOND. THEN THEY WILL REALIZE THAT IT WAS NOT A LEGIT QUESTION. AND DON'T MATTER HOW STUPID A QUESTION IS, YOU CAN STILL LEARN SOMETHING FROM SOMEONE ELSE'S RESPONSE. | ||

I encourage people to use the search engine all the time, simply for the fact that most of the questions are the same. Such as, what is sust, can you drink winny, etc. These are questions that are on the board every week or so. There should be lots and lots of answers using the search engine...if you can't find it through search, post the question on the board. ------------------ | ||

Big Swol,let me ask you a question: are all the new members get flamed? No! Only the ones who ask stupid questions! This board wasn't establish to educate dumb newbies,it's for discussion of steroids and what's related to them.And how can you discuss something with someone,who doesn't know the most basic things? That's becoming really frustrating when you post answer to question and 10min later on the same page some newbie asking same question,isn't it? Somehow,when I discover this board,I checked all the available features and did click on "search".It was 4 months ego,but I still enjoy reading old posts,and they are great source of information not only for newbies,but even for experienced users. It's just most of newbies are so in love with their persona,so concerned with themself,that they rush to post their stupid question and sit there,bumping it and going angree,that nobody would answer,instead of just opening their eyes and reading other posts.Most of them also,brain lazy! The bottom line is,that flaming is working like natural selection in animal world,and it prevent, at least to some degree,from this board becoming board without vets and people with knowledge...even it's in process already.If you compare old posts with todays,you will see how low the quality of discussion fall.Too sad! | ||

Just keep taking as much T3 as long as you can, at least to see if your thyroid holds up. Oh, and mix the sust with your cereal. It tastes really good with rice crispies.. ------------------ | ||

I agree conan, a little ballbusting every-now and again is fun. But 40,50,60 posts seems a bit ridiculous.And by the way I'm looking forward to see your week 2 update. | ||

I notice most of the flamers are members that have been here around 1-2 months. They've just graduated from newbie status, so they try to fit in with the in-crowd by ordering newbies to 'go do a search'. | ||

A lot of times a post has 40-50 posts and 30 of them are people flaming each other back and forth. That's not the point of this board. The point is discussion of anabolics, and yes that does include education. If you don't feel like answering a question than don't! | ||

I personally think that some of the flames are funny as hell! The primary reason I come on this board is to gain knowledge from others more experienced than I, but I also check out certain posts just to laugh my ass off... some of the flames are really funny. Besides, I think most of the flamers are just jokin around, just like a group of good friends fuckin around with each other. Just my 2 cents. Later. ------------------ | ||

But how are we going to know the final verdict on drinking winny without the winny  I think everyone deserves a flame here and there. I know that after my first flame I was sure to not ask such a dumb and vague question(such as I have x amount of gear what should I do with it)again...------------------ | ||

Drinking winny. That is on here at least one time a day. The search engine does work good. We all have been flamed at one time or another and we have all flamed someone else. Most of the time it is all in good fun, and makes you use the search engine for the next time. ------------------ | ||

HEY! Are you the REA Hammercurl, or that guy who's been posting on the Meso board using your name? Seriously, maybe I'm missing something. I just haven't seen too many inappropriate flames. I vote for "What's the best D-bol?" daily thread. Dexter ------------------ | ||

Good post Big Swole. People come to this board to learn. That's part of the reason i'm here. What really burns me though is ignorant posts like "I just bought some pink Naposim Dbol are they better than the white ones"? That very question was posted not long ago and I have to commend El Cubano because he was "patient" with his reply. Why the hell would anyone attempt to buy any type of steroid without first researching what they are purchasing? I don't really mind questions about stacking and that sort of thing but these idiots that don't know 1 steroid from another need to start at the beginning........go buy WAR, Anobolics 2000, MuscleMags Anabolic Edge, the Underground Steriod Handbook or the Steroid Bible and get some "basic" knowledge first. | ||

The only thing that pisses others off is when someone hops on the board and isn't on for 5 minutes and they ask a question that's already been asked/answered several times, either that day or recently. When I get on I usually check out all the pages, if i'm in a hurry i'll scroll around the topics and make sure i'm not asking somthing redundant.
