I'm very big on this. I sort of rank people in terms of respect based on it.
The people with the most social weight on this board should be the mods and "proven" monsters/good physiques.
You would be surprised to see many of the physiques on this board. Some well known members have been full of shit for a long, long time.
I just value honesty. Although it is a bodybuilding forum so it makes sense you should look good (or have looked good) so people know you practice what you preach. Everyone has different goals so practicing what you preach could be a lean athletic 160 or a shredded 300 we all have a place on here. When I see guys post their pics and they look ok and they want to improve I love that. As you say many on here post like they are huge and lean and you see a pic and think wow he is full of shit. Then you have the complete freaks who barely post and are humble and pop in from time to time who are the opposite side of the spectrum.
I am nothing special but anyone who has been on this forum awhile should remember all my logs and how crap I looked and I would still post pics. Posted pics of my shit calves and my distended gut so that's why I post like I do now. I honestly don't care how good/bad someone looks but I appreciate when guys are honest and transparent and they get my respect for that.
