    WHIS IS WHY PMs ARE SO IMPORTANT TO US NEWCOMERS

    I have over 45 posts and no PM, but I believe it is because I have not been a member long enough, despite 45 quality posts.

    I have received great advice in open forum from a many members, specifically from a couple VETS who are extremely knowledgable about my particular cycle and goals.

    I believe "the rush" for many of us has to do with the fact that many of us either got ripped off by a source, or are trying to find a better source, and since we are forbidden to even utter the word in open forum, we just want good quality advice from a VET or MOD. 99% of us are just excited, curious, newbies. Not NARCS


    - as you can see by my subject text, I apparently need help typing also. Wish we could edit the subject line as well as the body text if we started the thread.

    The reason is to stop spamming and scammers I believe. Not to make sure newbies are contributing before they can PM

    I understand, believe me. It's just so frustrating to not be able to have important questions and concerns addressed by someone we trust.

    .
    Quality posts?A large majority of you posts are either whining about not being able to PM,asking for a source OPENLY, or asking about Anavar .

    You do realize the MODs and VETs do this in our spare time,right?We don't get paid to help you ppl.We do it out of the kindness of our heart.Quite honestly with all the stink you are making about this,I hope admin never lets you get the PM feature, as we owe you nothing.You should be thankful/grateful that we are here to answers your questions.The information on this board is FREE.Don't you find that a bargain in itself?You choose to be selfish,and piss and whine that you can't PM a MOD about a source check.Some MODs/VETs don't mind helping out members that hang around and contribute to the board by answering questions in forums that the member has some experience in.On the other hand,VETs/MODs are reluctant to help new members who just sign up to take up our VALUABLE time and don't contribute at all.Sort of rape us,and take off never to be heard from again.The latter definitely sounds like you.

    yeah you have to be a member for at least a week in addition to the posts. I know you're excited to pm, but it's only 7 days and honestly if you don't have the patience to wait 7 days to pm for a source check or something you probably don't have the patience to make any quality gains. We all understand the frustration of the new members with this policy, trust me we've heard this many times before.

    It was created to help you guys not hinder you. This board, unlike others, is not centered around the buying and selling of steroids . It exists for information purposes only, we don't want any kind of affiliation with any illegal sources. What happens is that people sign up, and start soliciting our members for business and they don't contribute to the board. For starters soliciting our members will get you banned for reasons already stated, and we like people to contribute as well, not just leech.

    ..In addition to what Pinn and Sym stated, the PM limitations are for YOUR protection...Believe it or not, there are a-holes out there that prey on new members...They'll promise you a hook-up, and the only hook-up you'll generally receive is a nice butt reaming....

    AG
    There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...
    A minimum of 100 posts and 45 days membership required for source checks. Source checks are performed at my discretion.

    I'm relatively sure everyone in here was once a "leech", as you put it. I'm sure no one popped out of the whomb with a vast knowledge of performance enhancing steroids . I'm just trying to learn, so that someday I'll have worthy advice for others.

    Geez Pinn, can you use some KY next time, or at least buy me dinner after?
