**Big Rush** · 04-27-2002, 01:35 AM

All I want to do is post this question there:

http://www.anabolicreview.com/vbulle...352#post187352

Will someone let me know how to post there. Do
I need special permission???? There just isn't an option at the top to "submit a new thread".

Peace

The forum has been locked for the time being and is a "Read Only" status.

thanks canes...why is that???

**Canes4Ever** · 04-27-2002, 02:32 AM

There was a big brouhaha last week about things getting out of hand in the forum, so the mods and the administrator thought it best that it was closed for at least the time being.

**PTbyJason** · 04-27-2002, 08:50 PM

no no, what I was saying, and you have no way of knowing unless you saw the e-mail I sent him, was that obviously Dizzy is upset about the opposite sex board being locked and I was the one that locked it. I want to compromise with everyone here. I think the opposite sex board can have a good purpose if used correctly, but everyone has to know the rules of it. I want to come up with rules that are fair to everyone. My thoughts were that if I could convince Dizzy that what I was doing was fair, then I could please just about anyone regarding the way the opposite sex board was run.

Okay now that sounds right....

Before it sounded like he was gonna be the sole person to decide if the board stayed or went and I was

my head thinking, "What the hell is that, who is Dizzy, is he a new Super Moderator of the Sex Board ?", that would have probably ticked me and a lot of other folks off I'm sure.

I mean I'm sure Dizzy is a nice guy but that would have just seemed wierd since he hasn't been here very long.

**solid90062** · 04-27-2002, 09:48 PM

Jason, not too Diss on Dizzy, but YOU come up with rules that you think is best, and to hell with anyone that wants to bitch about it. It your job to administrate, not placate.

I know i come up with the rules, and ultimately I am going to decide what happens with the future of it. This is my way of trying to make it fair for everyone. I am offering my hand to shake his and come to an agreement on everything, it is up to him to take the next step. I have a tendency of trying to make everyone happy both on the board and in my own life as well. I don't know if that is a good quality or a weakness. Like i have said before, I was the one that wanted the board to originally exist, so I want to bring it back. But if Dizzy and some of the others don't understand where I am coming from I will have to drop the board. I don't want to drop that board, I just want everyone to use it the way it is suppose to be used.

**bex** · 04-28-2002, 02:24 AM

I think that PT should do what he thinks is best ...If some people are going to abuse the board and not follow the rules then we should lose it.But then the bros that did stuff it up for everyone else should be ashamed of them selfs and learn from there mistakes..JMO....

Jason thats an extremely reasonable position for you. I commend ya for opening it up to discussion even, it shows your sense of fair-play.

I vote to keep it open, but have strict guidelines and heavy monitoring.

just my 2¢

**Dizzy** · 04-28-2002, 02:33 PM

PLEASE...I have accepted the fact that it is closed. I'm just letting it be known that I don't like it. I respect the coice to close it. I hope it accomplishes what you want. Thats all.

**Dizzy** · 04-28-2002, 02:53 PM

BTW - PTbyJason...EXCESS sent me that pm yesterday afternoon. I made the post friday night. I haven't recieved any thing else on this matter.

I just wanted to voice my opinion. If you think a poll or something should be held. Then cool.

I do definately understand where your coming from PT. I think you should start a poll if you really want to hear opinions on it.

Well, isn't that longer than you ?

**Dizzy** · 04-28-2002, 04:20 PM

Yes.

I have spent alot of time helping out members anyway I can. Being as subjective as I can with my opinion about steriods and training. Answering threads and alot of pms daily. The first thing I look for is threads that have zero replies at the bottom of the page. I try to answer these questions, or at least add something to it...just to bump it up top again. I enjoy helping people and I think I have contributed to the board to the best of my ability. I have made alot of OT posts as of late because I just want to mix it up a little.

The first 500 (at the least) posts were strickly AS, training, or diet related. So I'm not a member who blew up my posts making jokes and talking about movies. I have done my research...and I like to share what I have learned...and exchange ideas with others who have done the same.

Regardless...I don't think because someone has been here longer gives them the right to say their opinion is more important than anyone elses.

Excuse me....wow, a bit touchy today aren't we ?

Dizzy I have no beef with you bro, so relax okay. I think EVERYONE'S opinion is valid on the board, unless you are a troll or a spammer. I mean even Doofy's opinion counts (j/k Doofy

).

The reason I took exception to what I had assumed Jason meant by his 1st post was that YOU and you alone were going to make the decision to keep the board open or not. Go back and re-read Jason's post and see why I came to that conclusion.

So bro, sit back and relax, it's no biggie !

**Dizzy** · 04-28-2002, 05:41 PM

PTbyJason - I just realized something. You said you emailed me. I don't check that operamail account anymore. I rarely can even get to it anymore...like right now. So that is why I didn't answer you. (if that is where you sent the email) because other than that EXCESS is the only one who has pm'd me about this.

As soon as I can get to that email. I will reply. Maybe I'll just pm ya.

Canes - Cool. I didn't think you were attacking me. But I wasn't trying to attack you either. I'm relaxed dude. Just making sure everyone knows that I do care what happens to this board.

**Big Rush** · 04-28-2002, 05:45 PM

Wow, I'm almost sorry I started this post...everyone relax

Peace

I would never attack anyone unless they deserved it Dizzy, even being here a month or so I know you know that much. I am not a fighter.

Dizzy, we all care about AR, and I know I certainly do, or I wouldn't have devoted so much time lately to helping build up the Picture Galleries in the Pro News & Pix forum. Hopefully you enjoy my contributions to the board.

Since I don't have a great deal of knowledge in the anabolic steroid field, and I really get lost on those threads, I don't spend to much time reading them, and certainly don't post in them. I would never want to take away from the pertinent information that you and others are contributing to the valid questions that newer and less experienced steroid users have. I commend you on your knowledge and hopefully when I have questions on them I will be able to look to you for guidance.

Maybe my contribution to the board is different than yours, I try to be pleasant and nice to newcomers and welcome them to the board, and I also try to have something funny to say when things get a little bit too stuffy. We all have different roles here and the diversity is just as like that of any other family. Everyone makes a different contribution which none of which more or less worthy than the others.

Dizzy, have a good evening brother

**Dizzy** · 04-28-2002, 06:19 PM

I appreciate what you've done for the board Canes. Believe that. And if your not positive of it now...then do know that I think your a great person and I respect you alot.

Good evening to you sir.

**EXCESS** · 04-29-2002, 12:22 AM

I'm glad to see that everyone is so passionate about the decisions made regarding the board, whether you agree or disagree with them. That effectively is what a message board is all about. Thanks to everyone that has expressed their opinions in a mature manner.
