Hey Massif,
I don’t give a flying fuck what anyone else thinks, I was just pondering. Seems hypocritacal to me to use the info from our boards and Contributers, but not give credit.

You find a total of FIVE posts on ONE site and yet you ask why other sites keep slagging T-Nation ?

I said 5 RECENT POSTS. And crossfit isn’t the only board. I’ve been a member of about 5 boards (including this one) and each of them bashed T-mag, Testosterone, and T-Nation to one degree or another.
I’ve even seen supliment manufacturers use the Biotest logo in their ads and websites (not in a good way). Sure, T-Nation does supliment reviews from time to time (Dave Barr’s Creatine articals come to mind) but Biotest doesn’t use other companies logos in a disparaging way.
It’s a given that there is hyperbole in advertising and ESPECIALY in suppliment advertising, but Biotest comes closest to delivering on ANY claim they make.
As far as “Suppliment Hype” on the boards, this site is run and supported by Biotest sales. THis has been a fact from the begining and has never been hidden by Biotest, T-Nation, or any of their contributors or authors. I can’t think of another publication that would take part in a “Fest” of any kind. With all the cash that Mens Health and Mens Fitness have a “Mens Health Fest”? I doubt it.
Trolls, assholes, and muscleteens. All public boards have them, it’s just a fact of life. The difference is we don’t realy give them any slack. We demand pictures to back up stats. We call bullshit when we hear it. This is a magnet to trolls because they thrive on the initial conflict. Once that’s over we TSB them and don’t give them much fuel.
THis is a great site with great members and contributers. I don’t go to other sites and post “you suck” or bash other boards here. I have other, more intersting ways to spend my time.
