+ 2 Upvoting karma just for promos now?!?
ad
I've been seeing this rampant in the promos recently...I know everyone wants to get in on the promos, especially free stuff...But I earned my karma the right way (even though its not high by any means, but damnit I earned it). Am I the only one who thinks it wrong to be doing this? Maybe its just me but I thought karma was earned then rewarded, not handed out like candy to get free products?

We didn't single out the women by the way, we were guided in that direction by men posting pictures of their girlfriends to get karma. We have a guy who has done a cycle of dbol and posted pics of his gf and gear and is lvl 3. We were using that as an example of karma being a joke that it is.
Back to discussion. Realize that I've stated you contribute and could soon be offering me diet and cycle advice. I never said your knowledge is inadequate. Never have I said anything about fairness. Doesn't matter anymore about karma or how it's attained what matters is the contribution people make. Basically it's to help people realize that just cause you have high karma doesn't make you a diet, cycle, steroid guru.
Idk if purple font is you upset or If that's your thing. If your not pissed then glad we can have a discussion without gettin pissed. If purple= pissed off then whoops.
I won't go into quoting what I took as singling out women. This issue seems to come up each time a karma post is made. Which for the record this one could be about the 689th one. Karma isn't about being a guru of anything.. those tags are handed out and you can bet your butt those that have them have earned them. I know each of them and they give advice that you can take to the grave. With that being said I've been given great advice by someone with only three karma points. Now, as to the promos saying you need a certain karma, that's the best way they can judge that you are not just on here for shits and giggles. You've got to see and understand them wanting to give out gear to someone that's going to come back and review and vote... I know that I wouldn't want to hand out free gear and know that half wouldn't be back. I'm not saying karma says anything other than you are here and active.. I've never ask someone a question without looking at the topics they've started, reviews, and where they are posting.. I like to think everyone does that... AS to the purple it's my thing.. I like to stand out.. everyone here will tell you I have a very open, bold personality. Not pissed at all, I know how to state my opinion with out getting mad... I do not tolerate disrespect or dishonesty and you've not been either. That's what eroids is about discussions and understanding.
I understand the frustration with the example you mention .... its plain and clear to see and i bet you guys are not going near him for any advice lol.
Thanks for keeping this thread under control bro and being articulate..... +3 for that
I don't understand why you jumped my ass a while back because of a karma thread but now there are karma threads left an right and your not saying anything now!!??
Lmao definitely not vike.
Thanks brotha. That's when I love these forums the most. When you can have a slightly heated debate without throwing f bombs and acting immature.
Thats it bro... i treat a thread like i am sat in the same room as you guys, i say the things i would say face up and try to show respect were due..... thats the way ive done it on eroids from the beginning and it works fine for me brother... mutual respect is the name of the game bro... egos can stay in the back room till the shit hits the fan lol
StevebIf chicks posted pictures of their husbands they would get little to no karma for it.
X2.... and +3 thats another way of getting karma!.... having the guts to stand up and prove the facts.
P.S. .. you are the nearest female since HBG to be looking at MOD status...... BRIGHT THINGS WILL ALWAYS SHINE.
Ace VenturaOh no, please don't.
Don't worry Ace I don't need a tag to put your ass in check!
Viking that's the greatest compliment I've been given on Eroids!! THANK YOU! When I first joined I couldn't make my way out of the SI, now I'm everywhere and more than anything I want to build the women up on this site. We have more now than ever.. Some in the EBC that I am already very impressed with. You and Suzy are the pioneers of couples making great things happen on eroids. It's great to see more of that happening each day as well as seeing single women exploring their options on eroids and not feeling intimidated. For men physical self improvement is like a hobby or a sport for women it's a hard fought battle. However, eroids provides so many outlets of help not just in AAS but diet, exercise, a encouragement.
I actually gotta blame the male eroiders on the girls getting loads of karma just for picts.. they fuel that for sure
No1Yeah I agree, they act like they have never seen a female in their life
so much whiteknights its disgusting and beta
No1Agreed
Yea shits pathetic. We got a dude that's lvl 3 and ALL his points are from pictures of gear and his girl. Lol
No1Lmao that is pathetic
Be more creative with dat ass
Do this with a prop vial like that I will gladly +1 them =D
LOL.... now thats why chicks get karma..... i could sit and watch that azz all fkn night lmaooooo
I'm just saying that takes talent AND ass... really the first girl to pull that maneuver off on eroids deserves 100+
StevebShit, I saw some dude get 300 points in a few weeks. Even dudes with pro tags don't go up that fast.
Ace VenturaI don't mean to sound like a snob, but I have never taken advantage of a "free shit for a certain amount of karma" promo. It just doesn't feel right to me. On the other hand, I have never been one to pass up on a good sale.
Dude your preaching to the wrong choir. Been here for a year and I have 99. Dudes come here post pics of tits and have 300 karma. It's been long debated. Best thing to do is ignore the "high karma know it alls" and listen to people that actually know wtf they are talkin about. I share your frustration but I've learned to ignore it.
Hit the nail on the head homie. Karma aside, its easy to tell who the experienced members are with the good advice, There are several member below level 1 that have vast amounts of knowledge to share.
Here's a deserved +1 and welcome to lvl2.
agree 100% and I know some of those members you speak of. Very knowledgable. And thank you brotha!
biggerthanyouDude I feel the same way
