Hey guys - wanted to share an experience so that others like me, that are new to this world, can understand a little, what i have come to understand.
So, I lurked and just visited and read around this board for a while before registering and posting. Ive had enough experiences over the years on the internet to understand that there is a ton of bullshit and bogus info out there. Once i read, read, and read some more, I came to the conclusion that alot of the members here were decent people, knowledgeable about this subject, and not out to pull one over on people to make a buck or try to push their opinions and advice as the only ones that matter. So i registered, and glad i did
In the meantime, as im sure most new people to this subject do, I looked around at other forums, sites, and boards, to see what they were about. One I came across was evolutionary.org. I had an acquaintance that is a member and he told me it was a decent place- although he is gullible to say the least. So i checked it out a while. After getting alot of advice from different people here, and gaining alot of knowledge from others posts, I had a pretty good idea of some of the bullshit and scams that are pulled all over the place. So I came across a post at evolutionary.org that was someones best sources. This was one of the long time members or assistant admin or something that began the post. So i checked it out.
Well as it turns out, although it says best sources, it was only about one source- the one that sponsors the site- roidmass. And the entire 44 pages of the thread was all about roidmass and all positive posts about it, and how to get a discount code. Well as it turns out I have a friend who tried them once. Had horrible things to say about them, and said others he knew had horrible things to say, and i could find nothing about them online that was positive, even after multiple searches, other than at evolutionary.
I had already messaged and asked for a discount code a little while previously to finding any of this out.
Once i realized it wasnt anything I wanted a part of, i messaged again on the thread and told them they could cancel my discount code because from everything i could tell, roidmass was bogus and they had horrible reviews from everywhere i went and everyone i talked to.
Low and behold, shortly after, that message was deleted from the thread. Im sure they didnt want people seeing the negative feedback about the source that they were pushing, and probably making money off of. So i posted again, asking why my post was deleted, everything I said was true, and from my experience, roidmass was a horribly reviewed product and I didnt wish to be involved with it. Again, post deleted. This time I recd a message telling me that if I didnt want to purchase their products that was fine, but I didnt need to be bashing the product on the thread. So I responded, and politely said that I didnt believe pushing a product and not allowing people to give any opinion on it that was negative, was an unethical thing to do and I believe it to be negligent on the sites administration. Needless to say my following post was deleted as well, and i was told that of i did not stop with the negetive remarks I would be kicked off the board
Just wanted to share, so that hopefully some of the new guys, just getting into this world, can understand that when the people here on this board explain that alot of these sites, and people pushing certain sources, and advertised products from certain people or sites, are generally bogus - they are telling you the truth and not out to put one over on you. They have experience with this stuff, have seen the scams and bullshit that alot of us newbies have not. And the advice you get here is legit and in your best interest.
I am a believer that if it seems to good or too easy to be true, it probably is. And it became very apparent, very quickly, after checking out a handful of other sites and boards, that there are ALOT of places that will manipulate what they show you, delete negative reviews, and only show you positive reviews, to make you believe that it is a great way to purchase or go about getting what you want.
Dont you believe it
Just my 2 cents
