Well I have sat here in total disgust with what has happened to our board. Who the hell are all these new people ? This is not directed towards anyone in particular but I must give you my 2 cents on our new rating system. I read a post the other day in which a newbie said he was going to ask a mod or a 'pro' about a source. Most of the pro's, freaks, gurus and what ever the rankings, have only been around on this board for a few weeks. I assume that they came from other areas of this board. Nothing agaisnt that but just because they might have made 1000 posts on the chat board, does not make them even remotely qualified to answer questions about AS. Some of the new guys have a tremendous amount of knowledge, others use the crutch of "BUMP" to increase their number of posts. I've read alot of threads lately, most of the responses are useless crap by these so called experts. If you answer a question by saying " use the search or read the newbie post '....what kind of answer is that ? SO I'll end this rant with the following statements. If you're a newbie and need some info, email someone thats been around for more than 2 weeks, research their posts by going to their profile....you'll see how many 'bumps' it took to become a freak. And to you self made gurus freaks and whatevers, be careful of the info that you give out. It might be cute to see how many posts you can make in one night but I've had enough. I guess the sheriff's back in town. BPP     | ||

You make some good points BPP. The number of post someone has doesn't mean a damn thing, and some of the info that comes up on the board is F/U. Newbies should definatly pay attn. to who they're talking to and quit looking at the number of post. This is not a game that should be taken lightly. | ||

This is a VERY good point BPP, I have not been here long, but i have spent the last two years learning as much as can and gathering info about AS. At the end of the day it is my body that i am fucking with so i want to do things properly, all of the questions that i ask and answers that i give are valid from EXPERIENCE, for all you guys know i could be the next MR O, but i only have 40 / 50 posts, this means shit, at least they are quality posts and not BUMPS. I do not mind being called a novice bodybuilder, because that is exactly what i am, constantly learning new techniques and methods of getting bigger by listening to what people have to say, whether they have 1 post or 3000 posts. Keep the Crap off the board so us genuine "students" can get the info we need. TF. (phew, got to take a breath now!) | ||

Good point BPP. I occasionally tell people to do a search but it is only because I have done searches on the same subject myself and know that the person could find out alot more by doing a search than I could possibly tell them in one post. But I do agree about how there is alot of bad responses going around here lately. Last week someone asked about what they could do to increase chest size and one new bro on the board told them they could inject halo or Synthol. WTF?? And BTW, I have never put one single post on any other board. If there is one there it would only be because a mod moved it there. This board is where the real info is at so I don't waste my time "chatting" with anyone unless its on this board. I know what you are saying though. I see people give advice sometimes with like 300 or so posts and I have never even seen them on this board before. ------------------ [This message has been edited by Maverik (edited August 25, 2000).] | ||

Good point bro, I am proud to say I have never posted on any of the other boards. How desperate do some people have to be to go and do that just to get a different title next to their name. ------------------ | ||

I hope you are joking, gorillamonsoon. BPP is a very knowledgable bro and puts alot of people on this board to shame as far as knowledge goes. If you aren't joking then why don't you get the hell off this board. ------------------ | ||

Well said BPP, I just about fell out of my seat when I checked out the "OLD FAITHFUL" today, I havent' been away that long, and there were Gurus and Freaks that had nearly 7000 posts! I think the whole labeling system is worthless unless you're label says moderator. | ||

Whether you're a freak, pro, elite, buttplugger, or bastard son-of-a-whore doesn't matter. After reading the board for a few months, one can learn who really is knowledgeable and who are the idiots. This is what matters. | ||

"Freak: After 1500 posts, the other board members will look upon you in awe as you become a Freak with 4 purple stars. Congrats to Moe Dank, Thick Dog, and Mr. Muscle, our only Freaks so far! Guru: The most prestigious level is Guru status attained when you have made over 2000 posts. You get 5 blue stars. Congratulations to 300 kleen our only Guru so far" Just something to think about, all the Freaks are on the chat board and the Guru (300 kleen) spends most of his time here! | ||

I dont post alot. I like toread. But, 2 weeks ag I went on a four day trip and came back to find pretty little stars, colors and a ton of new guys. I even see guys with start dates of August of 2000 with 300-700 posts'. What the hell. I don't mind the ranking crap, most of us with common sense know who to listen to and who not to. But, there are alot of newbies who don't. if I just got here and saw 600 posts on a bro and didn't check the date of start, I would be fucked up on draino and cleanser shot into a gel cap. Just glad I got here befor the craziness started. ------------------ "Pain is weakness leaving the body>>>" | ||

No shit BigPapa...I saw some guy on here yesterday who had 900 posts and signed on in August. What the fuck's up with that. Anyone who has that much time to post doesn't spend enought time in the gym to be worth listening too. ------------------ | ||

Curious, I saw that, but I think some guys have fucked up numbers from the hacker blowup. Ape who is now Huckleberry is one of them. | ||

And I thought I was the only one who noticed these new experts who signed on in Aug. 2000 and have 1000 posts already. BPP, what's the story with some of these new moderators that we never hear from? Of course WCP, Ranger, Conan, and the long-timers are great choices. | ||

I agree, and I'm glad that I can honestly say that less than 30 of my posts have been a bump... Sometimes I'll refer a newbie to my site, but that's it. I don't claim to be an expert on AS, but I do claim to know a lot about training and diet and I think I've proved that. | ||

good point, just because people have a ton of post doesn't meant he contribute a lot of info to the board, that is the problem with the number of post being counted,a nd what title you get because of it...peopel get to into increasing their numbers.. big-guy | ||

quote: Bro's, Let's not take this too seriously! By our own system, I would not even be an Elite Bodybuilder yet -- although I do get flashing stars The goal is just to make sure people want to come here and have fun here. This keeps the site popular and helps ensure it will stay around. More people, more advertising, more content, and new features. ------------------ George George Spellwin

Who gives a crap about stars and posts anyways. Stick around enough and you will learn who knows their shit and who doesn't. And that is the bottom line to all this nonsense. ------------------ | ||
