Where have all the SERIOUS threads gone?

[hesnobradpitt]

i agree there was some off track stuff on the first page or so, but it was just two bros messing around a 3am--it gets back on track and is still a somewhat useful thread on a topic that i think many bros either wonder about or know about--

i agree it should be topic driven and flames at a minumum, but just like any conversation--sometimes it gets off track but it is often people building a sense of rapport with each other--it is a "community" after all--and put any group of guys together--and i am a tax lawyer--and stupid/off topic shit always happens on some level


and in the vein of going off topic--can't wait for needto's cookbook

Yeah i agree i dont mind some personality to posts as long as the post gets answered .

Brad.

newbie bashing is not cool, even if someone asks an absurd question ill tell them how absurd it is and give them some advice but wont flame them and make them feel dumb. but as far as "true" bb sites go, EF is the best one ive been apart of, and ive been apart of many.
humor is good to keep things light, as long as aside from the humor your giving sound advice to.

c'mon man these guys are good bros and give great advice. a little humor makes these long ass threads worth reading sometimes.

HUMOR is good. if we are to do away with funny reponses then we have to do away with blue babies with devil horn avatars too.

humor is part of somepeoples personas and it is nice.

deal with it man or move on bro. Not flaming you but seriously ewe cant be serious all the time.

I agee some humor is ok but when it comes to anabolic androgenic steroids use joking is not an option. What if a newbie takes something the vets know is a joke and do themselves harm. That's all Im saying. I do like joking around but not when it come to something as serious as anabolic androgenic steroids use.

I've see some horror stories from some guys personally because they were told to run some insane doseage because they were told the more the better. That's just the point Im trying to make. There are those people out there that will take someones word as the "gospel" and could really do harm to themselves.

I just find it funny when I guy's 6' tall and a beanpole and is giving advice on how many cycles he's done and look what its done for him. C'mon use some common sense. These are peoples lives.

Good thread Bowtech. I agree 100% with you on the joking and the flaming. Also some contridict everything just to keep a thread going. I know the bro's that I have talked to are solid and I usually check out their post to see their credibility. As you said some newbies take everything as the gospel without research. Again, Great post Bro !!!

I think this is one site where there should be no noob bashing because most of us can't search. Now if there is a thread answering their question 3 threads down from where they posted, some bashing may be required. All in all the board is here as an education tool.

i agree--the advice needs to be solid--and i think it usually is b/c the off-the-wall stuff gets caught. i gave some shit advice one time b/c i misread the post--3 bros were like "wtf"--i think we have decent self correcting system here.

on another note, i wish i was a 6' beanpole--instead i have a choice to lift and do lots of cardio or be a fat load--damn genetics

 

[lartinos]

it has always been part of this board, atleast since 03 i can say. I see nothing wrong with the joking around. The board is has become much more entertainment than actual learning though in general. For example there wasn't a day people wouldn't argue with nelson's theories if AAS. Now most people just except what he says as fact.

 

[OMEGA]

I hang out at many boards by far there is less BS here then anywhere else been here a long time

yep


also Elite just has a great flow to it.

i think its the best

It's a joke when someone puts up a thread and is asking for advice from experienced people and they get the same stupid responses. Guys if people are asking for help give them some real advice and keep the thread serious.

It's a shame a TRUE bodybuilding website is no longer with us. They did not tolerate childish behavior and stupidity. People ask for advice for a reason, we all have at one time or another. Let's try and keep it serious. Then again maybe Im just getting old and am done playing childish games.

Just something to think about.

Your fucking kidding me!!!!!!!!!!!. This is a slap in the face to all of us right now mods getting the biggest slap. We work our asses of for this board giving out the best advice you can get. You saying good advice is no longer here on ef is a joke. Its here bro. Wtf are you talking about.

There is always going to be different types of advice on all boards big damn deal. But we stick together and get the job don around here. We are a family to say the fucking least. I stick up for all of us right now.
