How do you guys determine a vet around here?

[Slyder190]

What does everyone look as far being a vet to this particular board? Knowledge? Attitiude? Karma Hits/Power? Advice? Appearance? Number of Posts? Time as a Memebr?

Let's hear it. Sticky?

I go by track record of posts. If the person has always given sound advice time and time again, then they are good in my book. I would never go by karma, or post count, or even member join date.

Interesting subject. I can't wait until I see all the replies

someone can be a huge teacher and not be that big at all. however showing that they know how to get into shape is huge. they should be someone that is physically inspirational as well as the knowledgable to give and critique advice. ... give me 10 years

i go by name recognition...for the most part... ive been on a break from the game but back now.... i have over 5 years here, pretty decent knowledge of AAS not a ton of post, am im certainly not a vet... best bet is to trust in your MODS... stick around... use the "search" function... it is an extremely important, sadly underused tool... thats my 2cents.

I could care less about karma or the amount of time someone has been on the board. I just keep track of who seem's to be giving good sound advice everytime they post.

TEACH a man to fish....he will eat for a LIFETIME...

Knowledge is power--do your research.

Someone who knows what they are talking about time and time again...

They can be here for just a week or even 5 years...
They HAVE to know what they are talking about and be able to back it up in a real world discussion (not just someone who can copy and paste valuable info :rolleyes...Anyone can do that )

When you see someone who repeatedly gives advice that you know you couldn't possibly have handed out yourself and your continuing reasearch shows that they are right are then you know you have a golden vet whose posts are worth taking note of.

Even then, always do your own research to follow up their advice and suggestions rather than taking it blindly.
