Based on one of his (Onedge) posts, Onedge basically had him run off. Well was one of the people doing it at least.
I don’t know really. All I do know is teh fucking guy doesn’t post anymore and it sucks.

Much to my horror it sounded like you were being serious…then I saw ‘soya protein’ LMAO.
Its a bummer about people getting run off this site. Some people just dont know how to take the e-criticisms. X handles himself well and I thought Tribunal did too. Too bad about him.

Dude wtf are you talking about?? You’ve been here since '09 and have damn near 2000 posts… What does what we do with our lives have to do with this thread…
I really wish everyone would stop flaming everyone who posts pictures who isn’t fkn huge. He’s not huge, but he’s made good progress, especially when you take into account that he said he’s only been lifting seriously for a year. But before he could even say any of that here come the self righteous flamers ready to tear him down. I’m all for tough love and giving it to people fkn straight, but some of the posters on this site love talkin shit and never actually give any decent tips. And asking someone “when are you going to start taking your lifting seriously” is not a tip. Nobody here knows how Andrew trains, but judging from the 60lbs he’s gained while relatively lean in 1 year tells me he’s training more seriously then most people on this site.

I was expecting a comment from you, as somehow you have made it your responsibility to protect any pointless thread or rant. That’s also why I have no respect for you or your pursuits.
I have that many posts because I seek to help people who ask questions, as well as bettering my own understanding of fitness and nutrition. I also have to answer a decent amount of PMs as well, but I’m sure you’d know nothing about helping someone else out who is seeking advice.
Proceed with being an oddball Andrew, I could care less.
Chill out guys. I was actually pissed at Andrew when the flaming first started. But he had a point and so did a select few others.
God Damn! Everything always seems so intense on the interwebz. So much cooler than real life
moar tits to brighten the mood.
Ice cream for everyone…oh wait…simple carbs right?
Peach cobbler is where it’s at motherfuckers.
And tomorrow it’s grillin’ day. I’m taking my nephew to the airshow/carnival. We are going to eat fried snickers and turkey legs. Then we are going to have burgers, and fire off a bunch of fireworks at the playground. I have a grocery bag full of bottle rockets from last year.
Gonna be awesome.

Haven’t read past this so if it’s been addressed, oh well. Don’t listen to him man. You definitely don’t look like a newb. He just likes to point out at every possoble chance that he’s large and has better genetics to get big than anyone here, and if you haven’t achieved what he has then you might as well quit.[/quote]
Actually he is giving Andrew and anyone else that can think critically some pretty good advice.
People need to drop their bias in general, it really only holds you back. Only an ignorant man will ignore someone else opinion without ever hearing it. I will go out of my way to read/listen to the things people I disagree with are saying because obviously their perspective is different. I see that as an opportunity to learn something.
And to address your point, the easiest example to use is yourself. So to bash someone for it is weak. Had he used say, Stu or Meat, or Bug or Way, or AJ or H$M, as an example, as all would fit, you wouldn’t have said shit. It’s sad really.

It really is retarded that on a board where bodybuilding is the topic that if I ever mention myself in regards to size gained (since I don’t see too many people here bigger) that this means I am simply plugging myself regardless of the actual message.
But then, some people are the very definition of “hater” (even though I even mentioned kingbeef yet he has no problem with that…just me).
They won’t even accept that there is a message.[/quote]
The message is you feel the need to bring yourself up when no one has even mentioned you. You do it in damn near every thread related to bodybuilding, eating for mass, training, whatever. We get it. You’re big. You don’t have to shout it out at the top of your lungs every time you enter a thread.[/quote]
You know one thing that shines out from you and those who act like you…I can’t seem to find even one post or thread on this site where YOU have actually helped anyone else. I have never seen a “Thanks for the help Whiteflash” post from another poster. I have NEVER seen you help anyone else at all or even provide any insight…yet you stand ready to criticize every single fucking post I ever make.
…and let’s face it, following a grown man around the internet acting like you need to defend someone from me is pretty damn creepy assuming you are also a grown man yourself.
I do believe the point I was making was very clear to the person I was making it to by the end of this thread. THAT is what matters…not what you think of my writing.
If there were more people making some impressive progress, you can bet that the same few I do mention (like kingbeef, madtitan, lewhitehurt, waylander) would not be the only ones…so tell me, why exactly should I avoid using myself as a reference in the discussion of gaining muscle here when I don’t see anyone making much more progress over time?
Like most others like you, you are here strictly for yourself. That is why you don’t get what I am writing and personalize all of it.
Where the fuck are YOUR posts providing any sort of info at all in this regard?
Honestly, who the fuck are you to tell me how to write my posts?[/quote]
Then you need to quit stroking your own ego and look around more, 'cause not only have I had several pm’s thanking me for my help, I’ve had several people openly put it on these forums. I’m not here strictly for myself. I enjoy reading, learning and sharing with others who enjoy the same hobby/ies I do. But, I don’t need to constantly talk about myself or continually use myself as an example when I wasn’t mentioned in the first place. And, it’s your computer man. You can type whatever you want on it.

Why is it you must use sexual orientation to try and attack me, when I wasn’t attacking you in the slightest?
Apparently the “thinking critical” part is a bit of a stretch for you? I didn’t think it would have been when I typed it.
You are hearing what you want to in his posts, good luck with that. But fact is, when it comes down to it, he is one of like 5 fucking people on this site that has a god damn clue AND lived through it.
Anyone ignoring X or dismissing anything he has to say simply because they don’t like his attitude (assuming they have similar goals) is a dipshit.
It’s just like all the Crackheads that ran off Tribunal Dude. They aren’t replacing the void of BB’ing knowledge he would post about. But now everyone is “happy because he could google search and find mah fazebookz page”. When in the end, it just lessens the knowledge base here. [/quote]
You’re right man. Felt like you were attacking me so I talked shit. It was uncalled for. I’m not saying that X doesn’t offer the occasional nugget of wisdom. I’m not even saying that if you looked hard enough you couldn’t find one of those nuggets in his address to the op. I’m saying his constant need to talk about himself and belittle people - and it’s not “tough love”, it’s just being a dick - get old. My critical thinking skills are just fine man. Because he’s big people allow him to talk at them instead of with them, and it’s totally uncalled for. It’s not just his delivery, it’s the content as well.

When you say peach cobbler you better mean ‘Peach Cobbler with ice cream on it’. Are you kidding me with the fried snickers? I thought that was a myth man.
I’m lucky. I live in a border town. Canada day fireworks and Independence Day fireworks. WHOOT!
Probably get some people together and make boat loads of sloppy joes.
I’d like to take the time to thank you Soulja, for bringing this thread back in the right direction. Hey if we can get enough boobs in here the mods might even transfer it to SAMA.

Let’s get this shit straight. First the people who run this site are big boys who make decisions for themselves. They are quite able to evaluate a situation and act accordingly.
I pointed out to a mod how TD was prying into the private life of one of our members and asked them to intervene. I didn’t suggest to the mod he should be kicked out. Simultaneously he was doing the same thing to other members in another thread and I didn’t even address that.
In the mean time Tribulal Dude decided to up the ante and started making threats of physical harm to the female member and her boyfriend. This prompted me to say “he’s gotta go” in one of the SAMA threads.
I can’t speak for the mods but I’m pretty sure they don’t kick people out without talking to them first and giving them a chance to get square. Since this all happened in a fairly short period of time, a couple of days, I have a hunch he was an A-hole to the Mods and that’s why he is out.
It’s pretty clear he’s not emotionally healthy and even a possible a threat to members here.
Beans, Professor X has more training knowledge in his left pinky than that fraud Tribunal Dude will ever have so just stick with that guy and you’ll be fine.

I wasn’t protecting this thread… Once again, I was the FIRST one to flame him for this thread, I was merely pointing out that you have NO IDEA what his training is like, and because of this you had no right to ask him when he was going to start taking it seriously. Did this offend you? You poor sensitive soul.
What makes you think I give a shit about your opinion on my pursuits?? What cuz I joke around in the GAL forums a lot you’ve decided not to care. Seriously WestCoast, do yourself a favor and stfu. If I gave you the impression that I want your opinion on my goals I’m sorry, but that is definitely not the case.
It’s amazing that the people who flame others on this site claim that they are giving them tough love, but when you point out their faults they get all butt hurt. You shouldn’t be talking about his training unless you train with him, simple as that. He’s gained 60lbs in less than a year, have you gained double that in the last year to be knockin him like that? If not don’t come here running your mouth, because you have no right to talk down to him unless the gains you are making make his look comparatively like shit.
I could really care less how many posts you have, I was merely pointing out the fact that you were implying that people post too much here when they should be out lifting weights or saving the world was absolutely fkn retarded, reason being your post count does not reflect what you do in the real world! But congrats on all the PM’s… You’re my hero as well as many others I’m sure! My point was that this was a ridiculous and utterly pointless fkn comment because you have posted more than most people here given the length of time you’ve been here. So either the post ratio is truly detrimental to peoples lives and gains, or that post was totally fkn idiotic. But you wont admit that I’m sure, you have far too much pride from saving babies from terrorists thru your PM’s.
Why can’t people like you admit that he made good gains, you jumped on his case without knowing anything about him and you should atleast ask him for some background info before you flame someone.

Whoa whoa whoa… Lets come back to reality. He does fucking research for a living. His googlefu is obviously very good. He also can read people very good, again a trait most car sales men have.
There are 300 kids (ie 16-22 years old) surfing 4chan right now that could hack your facebook, bank account and expose everything you ever were to everyone, in about an hour. Just because he could find people on facebook, doesn’t mean this is a Hollywood movie and everyone needs to worry about him showing up with a knife.
And as far as I recall all he ever exposed were trolls. I don’t see him taking my name and telling ti to everyone, nor do I see him fucking with serious members. In fact I’ve heard him talk highly of quiet a few regular members. (Including some that never post in the training sections.)
Fear is a powerful emotion, and I think some people let it get to them. It is the fucking internet, and there are 16 year old boys out there, lurking this thread and all those SAMA threads that are more of a threat than some old ass research scientist.
In the end, it really is irrelevant. I guess I misinterpreted you previous post where you made it seem like you lobbied hard to get him removed. My bad. But in the end all it did was give trolls the ability to continue to post, and lessen the knowledge base around here. Dude was harmless.
And he owes me $10,000 thanks to stringer.
