   You do not just come on the site and demand answers to your questions. Do some research and then ask a specific question on something you don't understand or ask a question about someone's experience with a certain product. Don't just come on here and say..."Tell me everything you know about hGH, which is best, how many to buy, what comes in a kit, and how much to take!" Do a search for human growth hormone, read some articles, read previous posts and then ask questions. There's nothing I hate more than a lazy guy or girl! ------------------ IP: Logged |

Ill bump this... With the wealth of information available on the net, there is almost nothing you cant find some info on. It just takes a little studying and legwork.. Remember your dealing with some serious shit here, study as much as you can about everything. Not a flame, but the cuban has a good point. IP: Logged |

I love it when people ask a question and then 5 minutes later say, "F#@k you guys, for not answering my post about how big I can get off 100 d-bols. I want info and I want it now." That is a poor way to get information and to make friends. ------------------ IP: Logged |

Even though I agree with most of what Cubano says, I would like to note that the Search Function leaves much to be desired. The old search was much better suited to find specific information. ------------------ http://2thick.elitefitness.com IP: Logged |

I agree with both El Cubano and 2Thick on this one. Newbies should study up before asking questions, and there is a certain correlation between the kind of stuff discussed on this board, on the one hand, and impatience for results on the other, isn't there? That said, a more sophisticated search engine would be a great addition (GS: Take Note!). There have been several occasions on which I've tried pretty diligently to search out some stuff, only to get frustrated wading through a pretty long list of hits. Idea: Maybe one of the Mods could post a little tutorial (something a paragraph or two long) on how to best use the board's search function, and append it to the "Newbies Must Read!" thread that everyone keeps bumping.

Yeah, check out the post Anyone from spain. Classic example, I actually told the guy I was from Barcalona just to fuck with him, then I got to feeling bad so I gave him some places to look. I am too nice. IP: Logged |

This subject is like the weather. Everyone talks about it. But no one can really do anything about it. It is easily the single most discussed subject on the board these days and I don't understand why. We are all guests on someone else's website. If the powers above don't take action who are we. We don't own this board. I still say if the post is bad ignore it. When there is a 0 next to a post that says more than 50 guys with flame throwers. That's my opinion.. I could be wrong..

When I say to use the search I don't mean just the one on this site, I'm talking about the internet search too! Shit, I find out all kinds of shit everyday just searching for different things. How do you think that I know so much? I mean you can take steroids your whole life and still not know anything about them unless you do some research! I've been using for 10yrs and I'm still learning! ------------------ IP: Logged |

yep, I agree. Too many of these posts consist of uneducated/under-researched people who post a question then get PO'd if their question is not answered to their satisfaction. More so, there are tons of people who look like like they've never picked up anything heavier than a 12oz. BUD who post pics and want AS advice! That just pisses me off, and as I take it, a lot of the bros. What a load of crap. Please, Please, Please, do some research and even more research, THEN ask questions.........it's a waste of time and disk space with some of these questions! Peace to you all - thick1 IP: Logged |

Good post...most of them should do alot more research but all the flames need to stop. Let them ask before they screw themselves up. I know the posts are repetitive and useless at times but we need to help these newbies. Think of the first time you found this board. What kind of questions did you ask ? How did you figure out the first cycle ? How many mistakes have you made along the way ? (note: this is not directed towards anyone specifically...to all of us in general) BPP IP: Logged |

i'll bump it!!! both types of search are very useful. you can learn quite a bit about the different types of gear out there with your own research. but i know, in my case, i'm usually looking for first hand, real world experience from the bro's. ------------------ IP: Logged |

ex, those are exactly the types of posts I like to see. After you do all your research and figure out what type of AS you want to use and then ask for real life experiences and maybe ask if you should use high dosages at the beginning of the cycle and then taper and shit like that. I just can't stand the lazy people! ------------------ IP: Logged |

Iagree with BPP. Anyhow, the search on this site blows. I searched before I asked, and after asking, I got the old, "newbies need to search", BS. If I would have found the answer I wanted, I wouldn't have asked. Just because you see a post for instance, that says, "CLOMID!", that doesn't mean that it will be the same question that was asked in the great search engine. When I searched, I came up with, after reading the 5 star posts, that yes you should take it, and eod and 50 mg then 100mg for 2 weeks following a cycle. Well, that is great! Now then i ask why and get answers like, "To keep your gains stupid!", and, "You newbies need to search." Well, I did and thats all I got. at the time I needed specific info on it, and at least some of the bros' here could answer it for me. So, lay off the newbies a bit. If you think it is a punk kid on his summer vacation, do't open it or reply. At least that way it will get buried on the board and go to the back pages. ------------------ "Pain is weakness leaving the body>>>" IP: Logged |

Theres no limit to how many questions you want to post, so ask a more specific question rather than a global one. They are easier to answer and your likely to get more responses. IP: Logged |

Really! Good point Top Juicer. people are here to swap info. Telling people top go on the net to search for info is like the guy working at the produce section of your grocery store telling you that you have to go to the fruit stand down the street to get your produce. These guys ARE on the net searching for info, thats how they got here! I have been a competitive bodybuilder for 9 years and I know lots about training and ergogenics, but sometimes I look for help from my bros when something is on my mind and I dont feel the friggen need to start a goddamm research project. ------------------ IP: Logged |
