Lawl, me too. Trouble got mad at me bacause Topolo's name got brought up in a thread, so I went on a rant about how worthless he was, but it later got moved to openchat, or got moved from open chat. I can't remember, but either way I got into trouble...

No seriously I learned my lesson also.
I also miss Topolo's stupid ass post for some odd reason.
We should all shoot a load on a desk in his honor.

But, don't you think that the mods that monitor the serious forums have the ultimate responsibilty of squashing the bs in the forums they moderate? I have seen plenty of "participation" from some mods (the worst violator is in an other form of training now). If it's a problem, why not just put an end to it by eliminating the bad comments and commentators outside of general interest?

I don't know about the other forums, but the shit posts are going to be met with infractions in the Training forum very shortly. Of course, we will make it known before we make the change what will be allowed.

Last I heard he was giving out flowers at the airport. He seemed happy, and even laughed when I said that Foreman misses him and still calls his name out in his sleep.

Its true.

I can be rude and sacastic.

Deal.

However, GG is a old friend, and had I known that was her brother, I wouldn't have reacted so brashly.

I love you all.

I think this website has an amazing amount of knowledgeable people and it is a great resource for people starting out in bodybuilding, strength training, fitness and healthy eating. But I hesitate to ever direct my clients or friends here because it is embarassing to have them sign on be met the way most members here are met upon arrival.

My brother comes in here, for the most part to get some help with his diet and he's trying to make an effort to get healthier along with his girlfriend. So he asks a bunch of typical noob questions, and the madness ensues, to no surprise. Sure he's made a few intentionally annoying posts (i take no responsibility and make no apologies - he's over 18! hahaha!) but his serious questions should not have to be subject to a bunch of dumbasses' sarcastic comments. Not just his - a bunch of other new members. I've been watching for a while now, and it's just pathetic.

Other than that one guy recently, who totally deserved to get ripped on because he came on here guns blazing, there is no reason to treat new members with such disrespect for asking a question that has been asked 478 times before.

Those who are rolling the eyes, and making the sarcastic comments were once noobs too, and I'm sure that if I search the site I can find THEIR dumb noob questions and send them a little reminder.

It's why I don't really come here anymore. Too many sarcastic comments or a person being called a dumb fuck for asking a question which to the poster is just asking information on just to get bashed. It's no wonder noobs don't stay.

From what I read here in this forum, this forum is actually more ''fun'' than other forums, some forums want to be ''super serious'' about everything, and if someone gets into an argument, or makes too many funny remarks, bam, they get banned...It's crazy...So far, I like this forum, because I believe in freedom of speech

Yup, it's right! The funny persons have been banned and people like you are replacing them.

Titansgymflunky · 12-06-2007, 10:41 PM

I ask alot of retarded questions. Hell my last one was about my chances of getting laid in europe.(thanks for all the info it was very helpful) Point is anyhow I used to get on here a while back when i was like 16 and ask stupid questins and get picked at a bunch.....I even had one guy pretend he knew me in real life and threaten me lol. The point above is right tho, I dont really see a problem with people gettin messed with here. When I do, its normaly meent as a joke and not to really be offensive.

Titansgymflunky · 12-06-2007, 10:42 PM

Its alot better now

min0 lee · 12-07-2007, 05:30 AM

This happens in every forum, chat or blog room.
I wouldn't let a simple insult hurt me, you can't be overly sensative.

If you can't take the heat get out of the kitchen they say.
