    Exclamation Sources, Questions about Steroids, READ THIS FIRST

    Ok, there seems to be some redundancy among some of the new members lately and I want to make sure everyone understands how everything works around here. I am not picking on anyone, this is something that has always been a problem, but I am finally getting around to telling people what to do when coming to AR.

    1. So starting things off, you need a source or think you have a source, right?

    Do the following: If you think you have a source, PM a moderator and ask them if the source is legit. Moderator names can be found in the Forum Leaders section. PM (Private Message) them and if you look on the Main Page you will see >>>Private Messages<<< near the top of the page. If it is blinking, it means you have new private messages. Go ahead and read them, the only person that blinking bar is going to annoy is you, so read it whenever you get the chance.

    If you need a source, you can PM (translation above) them as well, but in all honesty, you probably won't get a response. They don't even know you, why would they give you the name of a source?

    Also, I don't know sources, so please don't contact me regarding this. I get daily request from people I have known a long time and I tell them the same thing. I do not keep up with sources.

    2. I'm a source and I want to come to the board and be a legit supplier, how do I do it?

    Do the following: Don't bother registering, go find another board. Eventually you are going to try to spam members to solicit business and then I will ban you.

    3. Someone just contacted me, are they a legit source?

    Answer: Legit sources do not contact people trying to get business. They keep the fact that they sell secret in order to prevent people from knowing that it is them. Why would a legitimate source randomly contact people who could be a NARC and get themself busted? No one would take that chance.

    4. I'm not sure what cycle to do, can you help me?

    Do the following: Please research just a little bit. Read the Educational Threads, it will keep you busy for hours and you will learn a lot. Gather some info, come back and ask if a particular cycle is good for you. Give us details of the cycle, and why you think it is good. We are here to help you, but we really don't want to have to write a cycle up for every member here. If we did that it would take forever.


    Ok everyone I am tired of typing, everyone that has been here for a while, add your own and I will throw it up into the original post so that it doesn't get lost (with credit to you of course).

    Don't worry Diesel, I didn't even read that post (sorry). It was just general things that new people need to know. This was not addressed to anyone in particular. I have just noticed a growing trend of people asking about sources, and I want to make sure everyone knows how to go about doing things.

    Bump anything about sources should be kept out of the public eye if you want a price check or to find out if someone is legit do as Jason says PM a mod

    my very 1st post on elite as a newbie was about looking for a source, yep the very 1st one.........got flamed until my ass literally hurt.
    all you newer bros........do yourselves a favor and hang out a while, things will come your way on the asking end. if you think you already have a source, but arent sure as to legitamacy, then pm a mod asap.
    i learned from this, and if you make the same mistakes i did, your asses will hurt too, as this board dosent take too kindly to putting this kind of info up in public.
    this is a great board, with great mods and members. trust me, in time they will take care of you.
    btw- i know the rules now, and wont be makin any of those mistakes here...........

    ptbyjason,
    thank you bro, this was the only way to get the message across for me, was to relate an experience of my own. and while its somewhat embarrassing to admit things like this,if it helps someone down the road, then im all for it.
    im tellin all the newer bros out there, this is a great board, and if you have a little patience, things will work out here.

    Good post Jason

    Also, you might want to consider keeping source questions to email only, as PM's are very insecure.

    Great post. Great insight to an increasingly challenging job to sort out who is who..... and tracking good lookin', fake gear from point of origin/distribution and tracing to source to source. (unknowingly in their possession for some)

    Recently, I have seen several top sources/pros thrown into a tailspin on stellar duplicates of Schering Testaviron, primo, and Ferring GB Virormone. Best fakes seen/produced ever, IMO.

    Here is my two cents from what I observe/conclude:

    Legit sources or sources with an established retail base with proven track records do not spam or solicit business. More often than not, some sources even have to notify MODS to hold off on reffing new 'biz as demand is too high for current "base" inventory levels. Sources do not want "duds"as customers, (understandably) Hence, MODS have the ability to screen potential, reliable, repeat customers for the legit sources. I certainly do not want to send any bro a "dud". Sources, therefore have great respect for MODS (most ) as our input is key to growing their business more often than not. No source wants his addy in someone's hands who never orders or is careless. A potential leak of info??

    Often, MODS then encourage feedback from customers and their successful/unsuccesful transactions so a "file" can be kept current on the source.

    Many sources only accept new biz from MOD referrals only. We must all protect each other. Always protect your source!! Never mention his/her addy to anyone without his/her consent.

    Finally, MODS know who is who. IOW, new start up sources can have/establish 20 different email addys and 19 are his/her referrals. Not good!!! How would you know if you were a victim to this? Ask!!!

    If a MOD or board personnel has not recognized the addy of a source, we will find the information through other distribution/information channels such as other boards, etc..You will get an answer. Not only a Y or an N, but usually some type feedback to boot on recent transactions, history, patterns, legitimacy, etc..

    Never hurts to ask a MOD. Advice is always free!! Do not lose your hard earned cash!!

    And in summary, never source check in the public forums!! And better yet, NEVER cry foul or SCAMMER until situation is also investigated by MODS. You would be very surprised how much a little "third party pressure" can have on speeding up a potential failed or a once lost order "now found" can have on expediting a delivery!!!

    Regards to AR

    I spent hours reading and researching the information on the board before I ever started a post. First of all this educated me on the information I needed and wanted to know, second I learned enough to no ask the questions we keep seeing over and over. The research will allow you to know the right things to ask. There is alot of information on the board so use the search function, I bet it will have the information you are looking for.

    Peace

    Yeah you are going to get hooked up soon with a post like that. Well it will be a hookup from a scammer.

    Be careful how you phrase things Gas Man. Welcome to AR

    Thanks for the post. You are really on top of things. This is my first day as a member of these fantastic boards. I have been burned once over the net (pharmagroup.com) It is not a good feeling to loose your hard earned cash and the disapointment of looking forward to a "HUGE" step in your life only to get burned.

    Your topic has helped me to not only hopefully find a legit source for oral cycles but also how to identify a scammer if he/she should come onto me.

    Infact, this is how I found this board..

    http://www.muscletalk.co.uk/source-checking.asp



    I have nothing to do with these boards. I am just a newbie that has been doing research and attempting to take the necessary steps to get pumped up.

    I hope these informative sites can help someone.

    Hello board,
    After reading all the great information on this site, I've decided to join. I've been lifting (on and off) for about 6yrs, and have done the natural approach (supplements) without much success. I have some definition but I lack the size. I'm tired of being the nomal everyday Joe. Hopefully, with all the great advice that is avaliable on this site and the help of my peers, I can finally break out of my shell. Thank you all for such a great community.
    You'll be hearing from me pretty soon (asking questions).

    When people first register they recieve a link to this in a PM. If they have popups enabled, a popup does occur stating that they have a PM from me and the pm links to this thread as well as the Educational Forum threads.
