bsmnt said:Im a mod in the steroid forum at bb.com. We are trying to figure whats going on over there. There is a lot of members being banned for no reason at all and against our will. If you posted frequently in the Misc or Teen section or if you had a lot of posts (1000+) then you were most likely banned my someone who got access to a mod account or worse...
YellowJacket said:What the hell for brother?? You guys were the Supplement Section Dynasty......
Maybe they reviewed your posts and realized you were too intelligent to post there......
So the circus continues aye? Its too bad Ryan loves his money so much he let his board go to ****.....thats pathetic. Of course, it was inevitable, with the exception of the steriod mods, Lethal and H, who do a killer job, the rest of them are a joke but guys like D&G... anyone ever notice any contributions from him? Other than smartass remarks? Hes done that since I started at that board and has only gotten worse.
They lost Petefox because he got tired of the bullshit, if I werent banned, I would certainly not post there anymore.....weave, WYD02, Chemo, Curt, Benz, K(same), Bobo, Matt-D, LG, Chaseroy, and a hundred others all got tired of the rampant bullshit and left and look what happened? When you ban or treat the vets like ****, this is what happens. Until they learn vets are *always* more important than mods.
A moderator is a title the administrator gives you for various reasons, Ryan seemingly gives them out for high post counts, a vet is a title YOU EARN. Your peers give you that title for your knowledge, over all intelligence and your willingness to help people. No 'higher power' gives you that title, you earn it. And when you eliminate the majority of those guys who busted their asses to get that title, the inevitable will occur. This isnt about me, Ive been gone for months now, this is guys like I mentioned above, and Institutional, Labrad and whomever else was banned.
Its an all out circus, it all starts with the mods not having discretion to IP ban members. Now our mods dont have that power, but we dont need it, people act their age, we only have 1K members, when you have 17K members, and a teen section the mods need that power. Why dont they have that power? Because if someone is IP banned, thats deemed 'bad for business'. Ok, Let me explain something.... Kids who register ignorant names, hack accounts, **** of that nature Do not own credit cards, they will not be buying from bb.com, because either they cant for lack of funds or adequate payment method, or for spite. Not to mention there are hundreds of cheaper places, that Attention Ryan: Everyone knows exists, by ********* them out, doesnt take them off the web, people know about them and order from them
It all started with the drama that transpired because of the original banning of homebrew talk, and DONT DENY it happened people, I have the proof, then Ryan thought otherwise, so he allowed it again, good move.
Then some of the people you give mod power? LMAO! oh boy.... wont touch this one. They sure got rid of the 'vets' and look what happens? They ban guys like me K(same) and threaten guys like Benz and several others for flaming teens and those who post ignorant questions, so now look what happens.... go over there and hit "Search New Posts" and look at what **** comes up, the Misc. section has taken over.... its no longer a bodybuilding forum. The posts made in the supps. section are overflowed with creatine, NO2, glutamine, etc questions because no one is there to flame the piss out of the repetitive questions...... you reap what you sow....
Face it, that forum no longer exists as a place for learning and sharing info. all it needs is a big top and some tickets because my friend that is one hell of a circus. Well thats off my chest.....![]()

I never posted in the misc. or teen sections. I did have over 1500 posts. Institutional, with over 1400 posts, was also banned at the same time. I really have no idea why we were banned. Oh well.

LOL. Yeah that assclown has an opinion on everything.
YellowJacket said:
No of which have any relevance. I like before he starts a racist post he says
"Before I write this, I want to first apologize to 97LT1 and Petefox if theyre offended"
Then he starts out:
"This isnt a racist post...."
LMAO! If its not racist, but apologize in advance to the african american members??? If you think it could be interpreted as racist dont post it. This guy represents the name tool box to the fullest.

YellowJacket said:Heres another BB.com theory for you and how posting there seriously makes you dumber, I know, it happened to me.....
When you have a good amount of posts, been around for awhile you begin to feel like its your forum and you take pride in it (much as I did) so you search any post you can help on, and do so. You take what you know and apply it, helping those aware as yourself. Because of this, you dont go out and research info., you dont ask questions (in fear someone will realize you dont know everything) and that makes you dumber, seriously. You sit around and answer creatine questions, protein questions, and damnit, you're good at it. Think of what you're missing! Some members dont mind, they like knowing a little and helping others who think they're smart.....you'll never improve your intelligence or mental database if you dont get out and run with the big dogs.
A lot of guys from over there wont come here (or anywhere else for that matter) because they feel they cant contribute and answer questions over here, they're a nobody over here, and they dont want to leave their post counts behind. Thats bullshit. I post at 32 boards, read EVERYDAY at 42 boards. The more you get out the more you learn the more you can contribute to your board.......
labrad said:
Damn YJ, have you been reading my tarot cards.
institutional said:well fellas im kinda late here, but i just found out i was dead (lol), i mean banned from bbcom. but serioulsy i have no clue why labrad and I were banned. but its there loss, cuz we both have been contributing alot there lately. but this is the board that i truly respect and whos advice i would personally seek. i guess i just post alot there, cuz that where it all started for me.

Thank goodness! They didn't ban you. But they got Jake.!!!!
I will make sure he gets reinstated as soon as possible. Smacky also was banned. (Yay!).
This is the work of no other than those fvcking teens(Hagy and the others) you were trying to crack down on. Keep low, or they might ban you before Ryan solves this mess.
Hope everything is ok in your life and in your business.

Yea, I appreciate that brother. Agree or Disagree......we have flamethrowers like no other JB..John Benz said:When you were banned the last time, I sent him an angry pm, and told him a true friend may not always agree with his friend, but when he is attacked, he will defend him, right or wrong.
