Or are you being sarcastic?lol No, I can honestly say iv never heard of him untill the recent threads. Just a thought If hes wanted to get very well known hes done that now with all the conversations about him. Probably a good publicity stunt, its even made me google him. Usually the way you dont get famous till you do something wrong or upset people in the strenth game. | ||

Member 3480, 96 posts SQ 210, BP 130, DL 290630.0 kgs @ 105kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 15.05.2013 @ 22:48 PM by RyanDodz For a guy that doesn't post much like myself, my honest personal opinion is that this site is too cliquey. Full of people who are happy to give free rim jobs to people in the group, but super fast to put someone down who isn't.The advice that was given to me when starting strongman (from a respectable figure in the sport) was to "Go on to Sugden, check out the competition section of the forum and leave as soon as possible or you will just get dragged down" I know personally that 99% of the guys on here are decent guys when you meet them in person, and most want what is best for the Strongman sport and for it to move forward! | ||

I just get the impression he takes no s**t and says it like it is. I'd much rather have that than some c**t always smiling just because he's supposed to. Plus he said said one of the most memorable quotes I've read on here  | ||

 technical retard Member 172, 36827 posts SQ 310, BP 205, DL 335850.0 kgs @ 108kgs UnEq | chaos said:Just thinking about the (pointless) Ed Hall thread and got me wondering about all the top strongmen we've lost from the site: Big loz hardly posts anymore doubt Ed will again Hixxy is hardly on here Big ken has stopped posting Big rob frampton Si Johnson..... there's probalby more and powerlifters Why have done this? Are we just a bunch of whiny c**ts? Could we get them back? Do we want them back? Does anyone care other than me? I enjoy hearing there opinions on trianing and comp and s**t and their hints and tips/ pointers! Si, Loz, Rob & Ed were never big posters TBH Loz maybe posted a litle more than the other 3 Hixx wants to do his own thing re journal etc Big Ken is in the US.... Not sure why the above are any more of a loss to Sugden than say Bullet Tooth Tony or Kev or Joni et al (Tony & Joni were huge contributors to the site at one point) Personally, I'd rather converse witht hem folk (as I know and am friends with them) | ||

Full of people who are happy to give free rim jobs to people in the group, but super fast to put someone down who isn't. This is on all forums where member interactions go beyond the internet. I was on a paintball forum, two of them actually and the shear number of snowflakes with big chips on their shoulders made you worry about actually being involved in discussions or the sport itself. I remarked about a certain team doing something that was a popular topic (at the time) and they took exception to me calling them on it. This forum is pretty much the same. | ||

Member 1093, 5446 posts SQ 160, BP 105, DL 225490.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | Conspiritorially (is that even a word) I'd look at sponsorship, affiliations and an aggressive desire for a full market share. That might apply in some cases, but not all. Never been here to try to chat up super star strongmen myself, so if they do or don't post is of little consequence to me. Like others have said, there are people like Tony and Joni that I miss more. I'm only on Facebook to chat up KeV. | ||

 Still got a little bit of strength Member 400, 22057 posts | The anger that we regularly see over people's lifts/training really does baffle and amuse me! It's not as if these things actually matter in life! Chill http://turbulence.org/Works/saddest/images/84.jpg | ||
