That board is frustrating.
Most of the people on there are not bodybuilders nor do they care about bodybuilding.
I've been posting there lately in the supplement section which is a mess right now. They have these company "board reps" which just pimp their product lines and they have almost a cult like following with some of these smaller brands. They hate any big name company. They also get very defensive and attack if you don't agree with their philosophy, it's almost like a gang mentality.
I probably shouldn't bother posting there but I figured I could lend some of my experiences to some of the kids there.
I have never seen so many 160lb. "experts" with 15" arms before. LOL

I`ve been over there too lately..................lot of kids who read a lot and overanalyze almost everything!! LOL There are some knowledgable people who give great advice but the kids seem not to listen to anything unless it pertains to 5 x 5 or Rippetoes routine!! #smileygrouplaugh5js# I like it there and so far have had only one confrontation but took the high road as I see no reason to argue with someone who has to find things out the hard way. On the other hand,I`ve helped a few younger guys out via PM who have since told me that they are making much better progress now. I`ll still go there unless it gets crazy!

I've been on it a for a while and to be honest, I can't stand it. As Tim said, there are a lot of kids and some of the info has been very uninformative and biased. In my opinion, THIS site (WOTW) has helped me a hell of a lot more than any other site. I'm not sucking up, I'm just stating a fact.
