I am a customer. I have purchased several bottles of SX. I loved it. I have given samples and recommended this product to friends, employees, and family. I myself have taken over 100 caps of SX and have over 150 caps on hand. I am not affiliated with any other company.
I am a regular at bb.com. I was introduced to SX at bb.com. My first SX cap came via free sample that I found out about on bb.com. I have given high reviews of SX at bb.com. I have been thanked and repped by AX reps on bb.com. Every bottle I purchased was purchased at bb.com.
But today, as this **** escalated, I was actively ignored on bb.com. I have to come here apparently. Fine. Here goes.
Also, I do not blame AX for my stupidity. It is my own fault for buying, consuming, recommending, and distributing something I was not 100% sure of the ingredients. That's on me.
But at this point, now that I have consumed it and still possess a great deal of it - I'd like the courtesy of knowing what the **** is in it.
Seems no one can just accept the fact that AX has blended a great product that is totally legal and patent pending.
Maybe I'm simply dumb here but why not wait until you have the patent, then release the product, that way you can tell everyone what you're advising them to ingest?
SX has been tested and tested and tested and on and on and on... it's fine.
You say "tested" 3 times. Now you guys have yanked it and stopped selling it. Do you expect something new to come up in the fourth test? Will you be using a different test this time than the previous three?
As soon as we get word that the patent is secured, all will be released.
Considering the product has been pulled and your website is suggesting a reformulation, there is no reason to continue pursuing the patent. So go ahead and spill those magical beans, big guy. We're waiting.
You're just going to have to be patient.

Damn, you ended the story. It's a shame because I had a question about the ending - particularly the patience part: Which would be considered more impatient - (1) having a desire to know exactly what the **** I've ingested and what you sold me or (2) releasing a product before the patent is secured and then refusing to tell consumers what's in it?
After you answer the question, feel free to end the story again.
we hired one of the best chemists to write an accurate name for the new compound and we are now listing it as such.
For future reference, if you had hired better chemists before formulating/releasing the products you probably wouldn't have to suddenly stop selling the product within hours of climbing mountains and screaming into megaphones about how safe it is.
Understood, however this is entirely not what is in SX.
Awesome. WHAT THE **** IS?
The speculation running around on that forum is such that they don't know what it is exactly. They are comparing it to known compounds with known side effects. This simply is NOT the case with this analog.
This would be very cute if this were something you were considering, studying, formulating, or testing. This is something you have sold thousands of bottles of and had thousands of consumers ingest.
People can get pissy all they want to at this point, but when the statement is released as to what exactly this is, will they all come back to apologize for making fools of themselves? Somehow I doubt it.
I assume, given your sentiments above with regard to admission of incorrectness, that you have already posted numerous public apologies today given the turn of events. I will spare the time in looking for them as I assume they are out there.
You're not making us look bad in the slightest.
Just curious - with the product being yanked - are you still sticking to the "we don't look bad at all" mantra or have you come around a bit?
I see only two possible scenarios at this point:
(1) SX contains an illegal ingredient and will never return as previously formulated. AX will likely spin this as "we looked into it and everything was fine. We will be re-releasing soon with some added improvements. Also, the whole 'proline analog' thing wasn't really a big contributor to the product and it caused unnecessary controversy so we are keeping that out of the reformulated version (which will oddly enough be not nearly as effective or popular)." <--- you can have this idea, AX.
(2) SX contains no illegal ingredients and AX has been right all along, but they pulled the product because all of the discussion was generating interest and buzz, and temporarily pulling it would create even more so. If this is true, it may be brilliant if not shady, but you're scaring the hell out of most normal people who have already purchased/ingested it.
We didn't start this tread, we know whats in it!
Well then ****ing tell us, the people who are ingesting it!
Are you really that dense that you can't understand that?
The FDA is watching over everyone...surprise!! We've not drawn any attention to ourselves nor do we plan to do so.
brb, flushing all of the SX
You tell some wonderful stories, but you really suck at endings.
As for all this speculation on "shady", turn the microscope to ANY other company out there. If you see ...[rant about other companies chopped for brevity]
Chewbacca is a Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk. But Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now think about it; that does not make sense!
Ok, sorry if I sound snippy here, but put yourself in our shoes.
As long as we're role playing, pretend you're a consumer who purchased something from a seemingly reputable company based on great reviews, you enjoyed the product but had some sense of "this might be too good to be true," the product was accused of containing an illegal substance, the company denied it, but as the accusations increased, they stopped selling the product and continued to NOT tell you what exactly is in it.
If I were in your shoes, the product wouldn't have been released until the patent was cleared. So anything after that I'd need some different shoes for.
We're doing it the right way here - moving from the way it is DONE in this industry to the way that it SHOULD BE done.
I'm just glad there are at least a handful of companies who do not share your standards.
I'm sorry if I've offended anyone, and I highly doubt that there's going to be any really fantastic make-up sex after this post. But if you don't want to wait just a few more days for everything to be widely known, then instead of having the make-up sex with me, turn around and do it with yourself.
Given today's events, I would ask that you shave your ******* for me. I think that with the way you run your mouth so arrogantly I'll probably need a bunch of pillows to bury your head in as well.
Great news people, SX lite is now available at the AX home site or the link in my signiture. Enjoy!
How about SX regular?
And I agree with you as well, believe it or not. It's sometimes tough to be put in my position.
FINE. We'll do missionary.
Every time I read something from a newbie who hasn't been around long enough to brew a fart before making his 50th post, my arse twitches.
This could come in handy.
At any rate, the crow population will still fall as they become popular dining fare within the coming days.
Since I am assuming you ate plenty of crow tonight I am curious as to if you have macro breakdown data available for it. I assume it's somewhat close to duck, no?
You are completely entitled to your opinion just as everyone else is. I STILL maintain that this whole deal is blown out of proportion by some drama queens on bb.com and that drama has unnecessarily spilled out over to this peaceful community.
And now it has spilled all the way over to the AX store and it must have gotten all over the SX (and only the SX) because it's not for sale any more.
The "mystery" here isn't a mystery - it just isn't understood.
Well then ****ing teach us.
The hype, hysteria, and misinformation has lead a lot of people to believe, without any definitive confirmation, that it is something that it is not.
Since the hype, hysteria, and misinformation has caused you to pull the product, I am assuming that since the time of this post you have received "definitive confirmation."
As for properly disclosing the contents, proline analog has been on the label now for months.
Curious - I currently have four bottles of SX in front of me. Two of them say the product is a 450mg proprietary blend. The other two say 500mg. What is the difference between the two?
I deal with words all day long. I speak; I write; I edit; I compose; I read. I'm good with words and they are good to me.
It's a good thing you love your words so much because I know I really hate having to eat pile after pile of something I don't like.
But it doesn't take a genius to find out who the new elephant in the room is...
Or who the new amphetamine in my pill is. Wait, did I say that? I guess I shouldn't considering I don't know what's really in it. But you do. So, please tell me.
There will be an update very soon. All we can do at this point is say that we are addressing the concern that was brought up by ceasing production. We are now looking at the issue in depth with no more product being sold. We are still confident in our initial standpoint and concerns will be addressed very soon. It takes a bit of time so we ask that you please give us a few days at max.
Why on Earth would you cease production and sales of your very popular product when just yesterday you were absolutely 100% sure that none of the speculation was true and that the product was absolutely safe?
brb, accusing Apple of being run by Martians who use iPods to brainwash humans as part of their plot of a hostile takeover - then watching them halt production of all iPods while they "sort out" my frivolous allegations.
