F*ck BB.com!!

[gaspers04]

I concur with the populace here, F@ck BB.com. SSD seems to be a very knowledgeable young lady that HAS competed. Hmm, feels like when someone picks on your lil' sister, let's go crack some skulls!

i don't have account on bb.com forums, but sometimes i come across their posts, those people are stupid.

BB.com is a pretty pathetic site. Only reason I'm on there still is that some of my friends don't come on here, and I have alog in there that I need to keep updated.

Unfortunately, this makes it hard to stay out of their stupid discussions sometimes.

We should all mass-troll the site and post porn in the supplement section for fun.

haha you tell 'em SSD!!!!!!!

just a bunch in skinny and/or fat kids hiding behind an avatar of someone else, pretending to be something their not.

whenever i see someone with a bb.com shirt or shaker cup in the gym, i always give them ****. then i direct them to ipyu for supps and mab for a quality forum

Ah, that sounds like a good idea, but then we'd be lowing ourselves to their standards...

Hey all - new here, migrated from bb.com. I've been on that site for quite awhile now and while it definitely has its merits, I've only recently been posting to their forum (like, just this week) and the subject of this thread is my main gripe about it. It's like, I can give my opinion about something, and outright say "this is just my opinion, this is what worked for me but don't take it as gospel" and someone will come on and say something to the effect of "you're wrong, your opinion is sh*t" (even though bb.com's own articles will back me on my information) and I think that's very rude. Only a few posts and already that's the vibe I get and I'm already done with it because everyone's a fackin' expert over there.

I hope I get less of a rude vibe in here. Advice about these types of things is soooo subjective because if someone had figured it all out for everyone and every situation, we wouldn't have a forum about it. But as it stands, there doesn't seem to be one right pat answer for everything, and that's why things are discussed and batted around. But no, I guess *some* folks claim they are the end-all-be-all of bodybuilding and even though I have my own results to show for my hard work, I'm wrong and have silly ideas. Ok, whatever. I'll just take my 6-pk abs and go somewhere else since clearly I have no clue what I'm doing. Right? Right.

So here I am and happy to be here. Yes, that's me welcoming myself.

Good to see you EV. We could use your mastery of humor on the boards

Usually I ban rude people on strike 2, so no worries.

We get quite a few quality people here, and truth be told, a good half of them leave because they do like the crowds of bigger sites. And some leave because there is no drama. Some like the drama.

The drama here will always be...how can we reach our goals and help others reach there goals? Lifting and health is drama enough for me

I am going to keep working my arse off to grow this forum. It might not seem like it, but it is "huge" compared to last year.

The guys that have been with me from day one know that I am committed to growing this forum the right way. No drama means a bit slower growth.

Anywho, enough rambling. I really am thankful for all the quality people on this board. And Sneezy...I do appreciate you being here. I know it's harder being a woman on a board with a small woman population. Maybe now EV can join forces with you and form a super-powered woman alliance and vote us off the island...

Wait, that was the wrong show...where was I ...

Yup, I just browsed over there and never signed up because nearly every thread was full of people criticizing workouts or nutirion plans without evidence backing up their claims. I even saw someone just outright call another stupid. MAB & Arthur's Hall are the only 2 forums I need.
