    Looking for a source?

    Then prepare to be scammed. I know we have talked about this before, but I think it's time to bring it up again. I just received yet another report that a member here has been scammed by another member. While Admin and the staff look into this, I think it's a good time to remind everyone that this is not now, nor has it ever been a source board. I feel that starting with *Admin* and down through the rest of the staff, this is the most responsible, dedicated team you are likely to find anywhere. That being said, we have over 100,000 members, and it's impossible for us to keep out the bad apples.
    I know there is no source discussion here, but I will say this much: in my time I have known some excellent sources, and they all have one thing in common. Know what it is? They would never, ever sell to someone they don't know, or to someone without a long list of credible references. Why would someone risk going to jail to help someone they just met over the internet? A good source will never contact people looking for clients, because they simply don't need to. No source wants to grow his business to rival Wal-Mart in annual sales, with increased client base comes increased risk. I feel bad every time someone reports that someone emailed or pm'd them, they sounded legit, so they sent them some cash then never heard from them again. Sad, and so very avoidable. When potential sellers (scammers) contact you, we urge you to forward the info to Admin or a staff member. If you don't feel comfortable doing that, it's your prerogative, but you could be helping to protect the rest of the members of the site if you forward us the info. In any event, even if you don't report them, by all means don't send them any money.
    This is the main reason we discourage members from fishing. Time and time again new peeps fish, we get onto them for fishing, and often they get an attitude with us. Ironic, considering that rule is in place to protect the fishing members, not us.
    In the end, just be smart people. We are here to offer information regarding the safest and most responsible usage of compounds you may or may not obtain on your own, we aren't here to help people find steroids.

    i know i am a newbie, and im not trying to get an attitude or disagree with you at all. This forum IS for informational purposes only. But...how come at the top of the site there is an add for "***********.com" if you arent trying to advertise people buying steroids from this site? I feel that, that advertisement may lead some newcomers in the wrong direction. Whether or not they read the forum rules.

    All in all im not disagreeing with you at all, your post hit the nail on the head 100%. Sorry if u took it the wrong way. Just wanted to put that out there.

    those aren't steroids and that is someone who advertises here. when I'm watching The Biggest Loser and a commercial comes on telling me I can eat whatever I want and still lose weight if I take the pill they are selling, I don't write the show and say "hey, wait a minute..." it's just advertising.

    i know that it is advertising (and how it helps the site run), but when say some noob comes in and sees the name buy and steroids in the same add that they may get the wrong impression of the board. Truthfully, half of the people that go on forums dont ever read the rules first. Again, not trying to badmouth u or anything. I guess i should shut up, dont wanna piss anyone off lol. Just saying people might get the wrong impression of the boards from that.

    good post Big! totally agree that the risk in sourcing does not just involve the buyer, but the seller as well.
