Political Correctness in opinions of gear

Like most everyone I'm a member of several boards, some for 8 years ,some now gone,some I just don't trust cause I'm sure their Fed run ( call me paranoid). However I've always noticed how as oppossed to a lot of brothas stating whats really their PERSONAL ( key word) opinion about certain brands or products, with the others in search of wisdom or knowledge (especially boards that sponser a certain brand or product) if the opinion is negative and really a reflection of their experience with said brands or products a lot of Mods and members with time in on that board get real uptight and even rude . Being respectful is a must when giving an opinion but also when listening to anothers opinion about anything. Unless the members or mod's are personally envolved with that company in some way other than informational sharing of what they consider a good product ( we all know what I mean) I fail to understand the bashings seen regularly given. Sometimes it's quite obvious that there's a sort of protection of a sponser who perhaps does not deserve that protection and should not be "off limits" to a bad review. Sometimes as a matter of fact MOST times 'political correctness' to avoid being slammed about one's honest experience is a major diservice to people in search of info and a reflection sometimes of something behind the scene that benefits a board and not it's members. Clicks form and become online "lench mobs" if a word is spoken againist the quality of something when in reality it should possibly be taken into consideration and dealt with with respect and honor as something to be " food for thought". NO ONE is above being questioned when it comes to a compound that will effect the body as much as the compounds that comes from folks you don't know, who don't know you and have really no way be to held responsible for what happens to it's users. If you read a post about a product you found to be a cool experience for you don't overlook the the fact that you may not have had a bad experience YET ( yet meaning = You're Eligible Too) .I seen it everywhere some not as bad as others but it's pretty much a common trait that one becomes used to seeing and learns to deal with in a politicly correct way. I 'm guilty of that behavior as I will not post about quality of a product on a board until I get feel for that board to avoid the attack of what I call " computer gang bangers". I've learned over the years to detect a troll as well as someone who just wants the truth. Perhaps as cats who all share an interest in the same subject, we may want to give our brothas a bit of respect and check things out that make us question something as opposed to blindly trying to keep everybody happy and not get banned for keeping it real. Speak the truth ,then be about the truth when it comes to you. NO ONE KNOWS EVERYTHING ! Just a thought I wanted to share with the bros.

Much respect to all of you
Peace

I hear that... This board isn't a bad as some in that regard. Keep in mind the sponsors make a lot of this possible so obviously mods will be somewhat biased (free gear aside) but on this board the mods don't knock you for a bad review & are reasonable in that regard
 
Yes if there was a bad review for a board sponsor then it is taken into consideration and watched out for.
 
So For the record we don't believe in Pc here or anywhere else. This forum is a privately owned dictatorship. The owners are very kind to allow us all to play here. We are very lucky to have great advertisers here.

That said we expect everyone to stand for what they believe. We expect you stand behind what you say.

We will not allow company rivalries to spill all over the board. A few years ago a group of Mods were enlisted to trash the owner of a research chem company. They mounted a big slander campaign that spread all over the boards. Some of the BS was posted here in the staff forums and it basically spelled out the BS. I watched this go down on all the small boards. The band wagon was interesting to watch. The funny thing was there were never any customers making the complaints. Just the same clowns going for board to board. They would pick up a few idiots along the way. Some of the same pin heads are still around. Some Big names were involved.

When you hear someone trashing a manufacture's products ask why? What do they have to gain? Trashing a competitor is a cheap marketing tactic.

I see that perhaps you may have taken this as something directed toward this board . Hopefully I'm wrong in that conclusion .Thats far from correct sir. This is something that I posted on several boards as a general observation and as I stated simply " food for thought". I'm sure you being experienced in this area would have to agree that you've seen the topic in question before in many places and if not, then all the more it is informative for those who come across a situation such I've mentioned. If you consider this post offensive as oppossed to informative to this board in any way PLEASE DELETE IT as that was not my intention. As I stated also earlier I don't do Drama. I've learned in 52 years on this planet that life is just too short for that.

Thank you

We must have been typing at the same time as I just read the addition to your original post .LOL

I have no interest in anyone's products and do not post on their quality good or bad. As a matter of fact I don't even deal in that anymore as a result of up and down experiences, I finally got so feed up that I acquired my own powders and now just make my own gear. No more Long waits, worry about the mail, underdosing, etc. So my post was basically about speaking to each other ( on any board) without all the disrespect as Stone Cold and myself discussed a couple of post ago and just being honest. It was nothing with any hidden undertone, just about keeping it real. I'm done with this topic as I feel that I've explained more than enough now about something that seemed pretty clear and appears to be going in a different direction that I have no interest in continuing . Thanks to all for your interest and taking time to read and comment.

Peace and Respect
