Number of posts = knowledge

**Dodger Blue** · 03-22-2006, 12:33 PM

The longer I'm on this board the more I tend to notice how many posts one has as a measure of their knowledge. I guess that why there is mods, vet status. I'm sure there are many many members that have a wide spectrum of knowhow that are overlooked because of their lack of posts.

**Myka** · 03-22-2006, 12:34 PM

you sound bitter...

**MAXIMA5** · 03-22-2006, 12:35 PM

Mods and Vets aren;t picked based solely on number of posts. They are picked because all of their posts are accurate and helpful.

**Dodger Blue** · 03-22-2006, 12:37 PM

no, not bitter at all, just find myself not taking "newbies" advice as seriously as someone that has many posts. I think that can be a mistake at times

**Booz** · 03-22-2006, 12:37 PM

there are plenty of knowledgable members on this site........there are also plenty tat are not......just because some-one has thousands of posts does not mean that he/she knows what they are talking about.........................

Well said

**TheDfromGC** · 03-22-2006, 12:38 PM

posts arent at all a measure of ur knowledge, threads like add 3 words or calling all posts whores give people chance to make huge post counts without actually ever saying anything useful

**Dodger Blue** · 03-22-2006, 12:40 PM

my question is, wish there was a better way to detrmine sound advice, (like the kind you always give booz )))

**MAXIMA5** · 03-22-2006, 12:41 PM

If a Vet or Mod backs up a newbies advice, then the newbie is correct on that point, but I wouldn't make a decision based on advice from anyone but certain senior members and Mods/Vets.
For example, you shouldn't take advice from me unless it is supported by somone from the above mentioned categories.

**Dodger Blue** · 03-22-2006, 12:42 PM

see, like that post that Liftnaize just gave. Give him one more post lol

**Logan13** · 03-22-2006, 12:47 PM

Posts are not broken down by forum: Just because you have 6,000 post in the Political & AR forum does not mean that your AAS knowledge in the Steroid forum is rock solid.

And just cause you have 6,000 posts in the Steroid forum doesn't mean your AAS knowledge is rock solid. There have been a few people come and go here that simply cut and paste from here and other boards appearing to know what they are talking about... but know nothing.

Post count just lets you know their contribution and time investment here - it is by no means a measurement of knowledge in any area of this site...

Stick around read peoples responses and it wont be too hard to determine who knows what their talking about who is trying to know what their talking about. Also you should make your decisions on your own knowledge after doing enough research to be ready to cycle.

**Smedman101** · 03-22-2006, 12:53 PM

Do your own research also Bro! Many mods are on here hours at a time and everyday! To help you as a expert, Or New to game!
There are 50,000 members here and alot of info.

**AllGearedUp** · 03-22-2006, 12:53 PM

Ive been involved in steroids and steroid related subjects for a few years. Id like to think i know what im talking about, but like one dude told me a lil ways back.. "What do you know about steroids, you only have 50 posts." Hes right my post count showed my knowledge. Unfortunately thats how some people think. So ill usually just sit back and laugh.

**Myka** · 03-22-2006, 01:00 PM

I cant believe someone actually said that

**Smedman101** · 03-22-2006, 01:01 PM

Amen, Warrior! I had this problem last week with someone

**Smedman101** · 03-22-2006, 01:04 PM

Yur smert - did u do skewl fir dat meny post? :P

**stocky121** · 03-22-2006, 01:08 PM

post count dose not mean how much you know. And no people or not chosen for mod and vet status by how many post's they have

**Big Broker 1** · 03-22-2006, 01:10 PM

well said warrior....numbers dont mean anything here...just because you post 5k "welcome to ar" doesn't mean you know what your saying. Vets/Mods tend to have alot of posts but have alot of great info in there posts not just worthless comments. The spend countless hours here everyday giving other bros great info(which they dont have to do). They do it because of there love for the lifestyle. My .002

**Streaker** · 03-22-2006, 01:54 PM

If you spend enough time on here you will learn real quick who knows their stuff and who is just repeating what someone else said. The great thing about this board is you can find people who have 1st hand experience. So a person may not know everything there is to know about AAS but they will be able to tell you how their body reacted to different combinations of gear.

**Dodger Blue** · 03-22-2006, 02:02 PM

Now that Streaker is the most insightful response given, Thanks

**ludakris9** · 03-22-2006, 02:32 PM

There are a lot of knowledgable people that you can learn from and their is a lot of knowledge someone else can learn from you! Just research also on what you are asking info or advice on!

**Mizfit** · 03-22-2006, 02:38 PM

I don't think your gonna get a promotion.... sorry...
