OUCHTHATHURTS, I HATE TO PILE ON HERE BUT HE IS RIGHT..........YOU SHOULD BACK OFF AND TAKE A LOOK AT HOW YOU ARE EFFECTING MEMBERS HERE. YOU ARE ON A POWER TRIP. YOU BAN MEMBERS WHO CONFRONT YOU............YOU ARE EXTREMLY JEALOUS OF SOME HERE, EXTREMELY ARROGANT AND EXTRAORDINARILY PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE. MANY HERE ARE JUST A CLICK AWAY FROM LEAVING AND HONESTLY IT IS BECAUSE OF YOURSELF. I HAVE DEFENDED YOU TOO MANY TIMES NOW.........AND YOU ARE DONE WITH ME? LOOK IN THE MIRROR JOHN........RELAX MAN, YOU CANT SAVE THE WORLD AS YOU WANT IT SAVED IT YOUR COMPARTMENTALIZED BOX.
You don't hate to pile on Phil. You don't hate it at all. Even worse, by your 'one click away' remark, you're inviting other to do the same. Now everyone who rides your jock can come here and help you out. It's cool. But before you try to run me off, let me propose a couple other ideas. I figure if I'm going to dig myself a grave, why not make sure it's plenty deep right? I don't like to do anything half-assed, you know?
Do you know how much respect this board has lost pumping out half a dozen LBA threads a day? How about Synthetek? Remember them? How do you think the professionalaminos affects their sales? We've become an internet laughing stock. That was our rep until the moderators started killing the endless parade of LBA hype. I'll keep digging. Where is your LBA-produced Mr. USA trainee? I see other trainers producing winners. Where are your winners? You came on here a while back and you trashed every single competing amateur member of this board. So much so that someone finally had to delete or lock the thread. Do you have a state overall? How many pros?
And here's something else too. And this is for everyone. Anyone that is "a click away" from leaving this board because of me, let's hear from you. One member says I'm avoiding the counseling forum and others are telling me I should post more threads about training. How about if I just do whatever I want? Does that work for everyone? I let everyone else do what they want. And let me add. Every member that I've ever banned has been let back with the exception of a just a rare few and I doubt anyone would even remember who they are. Unless you liked Banjo Lips or JOSEYWALES.
And everyone go ahead. Pile on. I know my shoulders are lacking. I've been working for over a year to bring them up. Here's some more breaking news! My calves are lacking too! I have high lats as well. That's why you never see me busting out any front lats. But my shoulders, lacking though they may be, are broad enough to take any criticism I get here. So feel free. Don't worry. I already said, I'm not banning anyone for what they say in this thread.
No matter what though, if you're unhappy, or not in a good place. You can always send me a PM or post a thread in the counseling forum and I will give it due attention because no matter what anyone tells you, no matter what bullshit someone tries to feed you, or some angry member says in a post, the fact still remains that I care about you all and I care about this board. So much so, in fact, that I've been taking to saving noteworthy posts in order to, with the owner's permission, eventually write a book about the bodybuilder subculture and the GOOD side of what we do everyday. I see in professional muscle some of the strongest, most caring, and intelligent people I've ever met. I'm not going to call it Bigger, Stronger, Faster though. Maybe Healthier, Better, More Evolved.
To those reading this thread that may be concerned about me. Don't worry. My son and I are fine. He's doing well and school and playing defensive end. He's 14 in a week but he's already taller than me with a size 11.5 shoe. I'm more financially secure now than I ever have been. Even better than '03 which I thought was going to be my peak. So I'll still have computer tomorrow. I'm not a shell of a man in fact I feel more full and blessed as I type this that my heart could burst. Now for the bad news. My son's room is in shambles. I can't even walk through it without stepping on clothes and spent deodorant dispensers. He's overdue on his science project. I think I may be coming down with a cold. My first in years. I had to let someone go this week which was really hard over a performance issue. It was very difficult. I had made plans to upgrade to a shiny new gas furnace and guess what? No gas lines! This neighborhood is so old, there are no gas lines! I don't remember my agent telling me that. Oh well, LOL, what can you do you know?
So there's the story. That's why I'm so bitter and hateful lately and why I no longer give out good advice. Oh brother! I appreciate my friend getting my back but I'm going to undelete confusedguy2000 post.
Lastly here, I'd like to extend an idea to everyone. I certainly don't want to be someplace where I'm not wanted. If you don't feel comfortable posting openly, then send a private message to BigA, with "OTH has to go" or something like that in the subject line. He'll tell me he's getting a lot of PM's and I'll leave. How about that!!! I'll ban MYSELF! Because as I see it, either way I win. Either I stay a feel warm knowing that my ProM bro's and sis's enjoy my presence, or I leave knowing that I've made some good friends and met some great people and judging by the thank you's, I've helped members as well which is the most important factor here. So you see brothers and sisters, friends, and even the few of you assholes, I stay or leave with something either way.
So I'm home all day and I'm going to be hopped up on cold medicine until this passes so feel free to let me have it!!!

You certainly stayed above the fray on this one. Here's a question: Why do you always pop up in every single controversial thread? I edited your thread in the B&F forum. I banned your other buddy.
