    Archangel.'s OFFICIAL Q & A Thread

    I'm starting this for chrisx, Titan99 and anyone else who has come to me for advice OR would like to come to me for advice. I in no way claim to know everything, and still ask questions myself, but I am very confident that I can handle most questions regarding training and nutrition, and some of them regarding AAS. I will do my best to answer quickly and accurately, and if I don't know, I will tell you I don't know. I won't blow smoke up your ass just so I can look educated on a matter I know nothing about, so if I tell you something, you can be 100% certain that I am 100% certain.

    Fire away!

    No offence because it's great that you are here trying to help new users but I looked through your previous posts starting on page 5 and didn't even need to get past page 4 to fully realize that you should not be offering advice in your own private thread. It's to my understanding that you have never even pinned before, you don't even know a source to get gear matter of fact.... you don't even know where to buy needles yet. How exactly are you going to give advice to users looking for help?

    Sorry to say this, but you need to leave the answering of questions to the experienced users and there are a lot of them.... and for the record, I am not one of these users. I rarely give advice due to lack of personal experience let alone start my own thread implying that I know it all.

    Like I said, I am not trying to rag on you, but the is just reckless.... Some new user may come in here, ask you a question and you give an answer that you think is right but don't know, and that user gets sick, hurt or infected. Please play safe and stop this thread.

    hopefully you do not try selling gear on this board

    and for the record, this is not the training and nutirtion segment of this board so not the best place to post this... before starting something like this, regardles of your personal knowledge/experience, you should ask the admin/mods/vets if they feel you are qualitfied to do so. Not saying your advice is wrong, but it would surely be less pleasant for the senior members on here, who have been giving respected advice for years, to have to go and correct what you've educated members to do should you leave this site for whatever reason

    Although I believe your intentions to be good, we need to be careful on the advice we give people here. We have threads that start out good until someone comes in and gives advice 'they' believe is good, but goes against what the site itself considers good.

    If people on here are confident in your advice, and wish to ask you about something, more power to you and them, BUT, please keep it to the open board so all can see what is being discussed.

    When 'advice' starts getting thrown around through PM's, thats when things can really go wrong.

    Is this thread a joke? This can't be serious.

    It kinda feels like some dude just walked into a bar, called for everyones attention and announced "I am the man! Gentlement please exit, ladies form a line."

    See above in bold

    Okay, you clearly didn't read my first post, and I have learned since the posts you referred to about me not knowing where to get needles, or gear etc. However, I do NOT claim to know it all, for all those who may accuse me of this again, I'm just trying to help from what I've learned from this site and personal experience. If this thread offends everyone that much, then I have no problems closing it.

    I'm not trying to sell gear here. Sorry if this in the wrong place. I actually did post a question on how to start my own Q&A thread, and Big was the one who advised me on how to do it. Big is a vet, and he didn't dispute this. My purpose isn't to mislead anyone, and as I stated, I don't claim to know it all, just trying to help.

    It may help everyones mind if you post up some of your biographical informations as it relates to training, cycling, show experience ect. Much how i have some info on me on the first page of my thread in my signiture below.

    What you said above is a ridiculous generalization. You know almost nothing about me or who I am. Completely unfair to state.

    Why would you think you can do this? I just don't get it.

    I'm just trying to help from my own personal experience, and if I don't know, I WON'T ADVISE



    I don't mean to offend anybody here.

    Here's my two cents. When you use the word "official" it makes it sound like it is being validated and sanctified by this forum. Secondly, an official is an expert in the subject matter. Thirdly, it's pretty tough to be an "expert" when you lack credentials. Not saying it can't be done, but without said credentials, there will always be a perception that you lack the requisite knowledge to be an expert. If you lack credentials, you can still be an expert and avoid the above mentioned perception problem by validation from others that ARE considered experts and have credentials.

    Mate, do you have any of the above?

    While I did explain how to start your own Q+A or blog, I did not delve into your qualifications to do so. I figured if your qualifications were sub par it would surface sooner or later, and like G4R if you are already advising I would rather it be on the open board rather than via pm.

    You seem to understand my intentions and have some respect for what I'm trying to do (help), and I appreciate that. Everyone else seems to be hating on this though, so if you and the other vets prefer, I can close this thread. I'm not trying to cause an issue.

    Did ANYBODY read my first post!!?? You know, the part where it says I DON'T CLAIM TO KNOW EVERYTHING
    My god, a lot of you seem to be letting your negative emotions for this thread get in the way of your intelligence. If you read the first post you would KNOW that I'm not claiming to be "the man"

Thirdly, it's pretty tough to be an "expert" when you lack credentials. Not saying it can't be done, but without said credentials, there will always be a perception that you lack the requisite knowledge to be an expert. If you lack credentials, you can still be an expert and avoid the above mentioned perception problem by validation from others that ARE considered experts and have credentials.

    Mate, do you have any of the above?
    I'm not a professional, no. I've just had a lot of personal experience and success at transforming my own body, and would like to share the things that I implemented to achieve that transformation with others who would like help. I don't mean to imply that I am a professional.

    I dont see any reason to close the thread down (but that is not up to me). I think as long as it is all kept on the open board, and the advice is given, like you said, only as to what you know, as long as people want to ask you questions, more power to you.
