why did you close that thread - in your own words

"
Yes, this is a steroid forum. I agree recs. are bad for you, but some people on here do use rec. drugs. Now, I have talked a few people OUT of using rec. drugs, so people have found some benefit from posting on here.

IMO, it's a subjective call; when we chop threads down, some members will be upset, and some happy. End of the day, I have to deal with it"

Bro, because this is not a rec. drug board. I know you don't do rec. drugs, and starting threads about doing 8balls is just going to bring out the freaks. I can't wait until the next MTV special " true life, I'm a steroid coke head"

The biggest rec. drug I've seen on EF is weed and GHB (GHB no more).

Let people bring the topic if they want to. Let them say they are a user, but making this a 'coke' dicussion is just not wise bro.

Mr.X has a good point but I see your point as well. Tough call guys...

This is an AAS forum not a rec drug forum in general. If someone has a question about the use of a rec drug it's one thing but just to discuss it for the hell of it doesn't really serve a purpose. JMO

You know, about a week ago I posted a thread about a poor decision I made.
I said i got all fucked up drinking and tried coke. Never did a hard drug in my life until then. I felt like shit about it the next day, posted up on here, got my ass kicked a little and felt better knowing I was never going to try it again.
This forum is my my home. These are the Bros i come to for advice. Am I a scumbag to you now Stallion??

 

[Advisor_x]

even talking about steroids are rules, think that rec drugs don't have room in here......let's keep it this way....

That's a "loaded question", and I'm sure you have an answer to either of my responses.

What do "you" think?

 

[drrman]

I have to agree with Mr X, i really don't even like seeing the word on this board, as it was one substance that damn near killed me and ruined my life entirely, the shit is the devil. The shit doesn't really have a place even in a joking sense on a board dedicated to the betterment of the body. Although Italion, i must say you got me on that post, i did get a little bit of a laugh....but problem is, people see that and think they can talk about it etc even though me and you both got it as a good joke

I wasn't really joking at all - I just wanted to show what those "little embedded drug posts" can turn into if let alone.

Let's face it...recs are a part of life. We probably shouldn't have threads entirely devoted to them...but if they come up in the natural flow of convo...let it be.

Fact is...we're talking about steroids here anyways, so mention of "recs" isn't going to suddenly flash red flags everywhere with the people who are reading these boards looking to bust people.

You're right, and they are both illegal, but we are trying to seperate the difference between highly addictive-killer rec drugs and myths surrounding AAS.

We ALL know AAS are illegal - no need to beat a dead horse

It's all about potential perception....

I Honestly don't know?

Either way, I accept the opinion. I enjoy the feedback from the peeps around here because you get an unbiased opinion. I don't care if you you're talking to your Mom and Dad, Brother or Sister, Pastor or Priest. In some way or another their opinions are biased because of the personal(love) feelings they have for you. I think our opinions are a little more objective here. You get a little more of a cross section opinions from different people. Kind of nice once in a while.

You're a good bro - I never even "thought" about your post the other day.

Contrary to what a lot of people think - I', not THAT big of a DICK

The way I see it (and in no way am I saying I'm right, just what's going on in my head), there isn't a whole hell of a difference between recs and juice. They can both be detrimental to your health, but as long as they're used responsibly they can be fine.

It's not the drugs that do the damage, it's how people abuse them. Nothing pisses me off more than when someone fucks up and then blames it on everything but themselves. It was their parents' fault, the school's, the police, and of course, the drug. But never their own stupidity.

I realize it may seem a little cold-hearted, and I honestly feel for people who have gotten themselves into trouble with drugs...many of my friends have gone through it, alot still are. I've done my fair share of recs, but I always kept my head above water. When you boil everything down, all we have in this world that is 100% our's is our bodies. You gotta treat it right, but you also gotta have fun during your ~100 years on this Earth.


Disclaimer: I don't mean to offend anyone...I respect everyone's opinion, I'm just throwing my opinion into the mix, for better or worse.

the stallions post pretty frequently and is a good bro on the board. So I'm sure that a lot of poeple appreciate the humor, and could give a shit what someone thinks when they've been here for a month. Just to keep some things in perspective. Sometimes its better to keep your mouth shut and thoughts to yourself when your the new guy.

Bro, because this is not a rec. drug board. I know you don't do rec. drugs, and starting threads about doing 8balls is just going to bring out the freaks. I can't wait until the next MTV special " true life, I'm a steroid coke head"

The biggest rec. drug I've seen on EF is weed and GHB (GHB no more).

Let people bring the topic if they want to. Let them say they are a user, but making this a 'coke' dicussion is just not wise bro.

I hard ya. But let's talk about coke for instance. You might here someone such as me say, yeah once in a while it's okay, B-days, New Year's Eve, special occasions. But you'd also hear me say how it can completely change some people and make them do fucked up things, how it will empty out your wallet, and makes you not hungry, which doesn 't help when you should be eating. Also doesn't make for a good workout if you've been up till the sun comes up. Be smart. Proceed with caution if you're gonna do it.

 

[Bulldog_10]

Exactly! We only have a limited time in our lives, and it can be taken from us at any time (I'm going through something that's making me think of this more often than I'd like)...so we have to enjoy it. Everyone has their thing they like to do, and as long as it's done responsibly then go for it. But you have to realize when it becomes problematic, or at least have friends that will tell it like it is.

Getting back to the crux of the thread, I think recs should be fine as a part of a conversation...it's better to talk it out than just keep it on the hush. I'm sure a lot of people on the boards can have an intelligent conversation on the topic and help some people...and that's what we're all here for, right?

 

[USHP]

I've seen some threads here that start out discussing painkillers and training and I've seen some good advice offered as far as how that can easily become a problem that can escalate. But, in those threads there always ends up being some discussion about the rec use of painkillers at that point the thread really has no relevance to an AAS Forum.
In my opinion threads devoted to the disussion of use of rec drugs really should be discouraged. On the other hand if one starts or turns into one and it's obvious that a guy is getting some bad advice somewhere or needs help with a rec drug problem then guys should be able to post help before the thread gets locked or at least be given time to offer help through pm.
Just my .02.

That's what I've been trying to promote. If it's rec. only and it's a junky thread, we try to shine away from it. If they are confused/telling a personal story etc... mix with AS, we try to make subjective calls. Either way, it's a hard call.

I don't envy your burdon to find the right answer "X"........

1.) We are supposed to be here to help, so I guess if someone introduces recreational drug problems into a thread we, as men of our word, need to help the person. - That HAS to be allowed IMHO.

2.) If a person is just ranting about rec drugs - and "starts the thread" - then the thread should be abolished.

3.)If someone starts ranting/bragging about rec drug use "imbedded in a thread" - then maybe just that "single" post should be deleted, but not the thread.
