View Full Version : No need to put all your stats in your sig

No need. Anyone can see that you all are between 5'9 and 6'2, and you all weight 200+ lbs. Seriously, it's not necessary. People aren't looking for your stats. Put them in your profile if you want to date around. If you have a question and that info is needed then you can give it out. Sporting nice stats doesn't say anything about you at all - except that maybe you need to prove something so you get taken seriously. People get taken seriously when they are knowledgeable and communicate well.
It might have been a good thought but it just isn't necessary at all. Use your sig space for something that tells the other members that you're more than just some numbers.
Numbers which don't mean jack shit anyway.

I think it was meant to be provided to offer more personalized advice. I.E. You would want to tell some 20 year old kid to jump on a cycle or someone that is 25% BF to jump on cycle.
This was my take on the situation anyways, not to show off, but to tailor advice.
My stats aren't as great as they were on cycle so I took em down:D

And of course these stats are all verified for accuracy right? Besides age can be displayed right on your posts.
Like me, I'm 23.

The "preliminary questions" were being asked, the problem was they were being asked so often with the influx of new members at the time, that someone came up with that idea to just post the stats in ur sig line and the person could get the help they were looking for sooner. Like I said, these are my assumptions, not trying to get into a pissing match about it, as I never put my stats their either...just throwing my thoughts out there as to why the idea came about.:rolleyes:

If the person wants to lie about their stats that is their problem...they are only hurting theirselves. I personally wouldn't want to offer anyone advice without knowing that I did everything in my power to keep them from hurting themselves, but one can only go off of the information they are given.

Noted. I understand all that. But it's not necessary. If you want to do it, no problem but users can post as much or as little as they like. And you can give as much or as little advice as you like. If someone doesn't want to talk about their stats, and that makes you uncomfortable, then don't give advice. This isn't the The Wayward Steroid-Using Teens Missionary.
For the new influx of members, it's not necessary.
Besides, if you want to get technical about it, not me, nor anyone else on this board is medically qualified to be doling out cycles anyway. Post what has worked for you or what you know about certain chemicals but it's never a good idea to give direct advice to an individual under these circumstances.
Better to give friendly advice than start directing someone. Some dope is liable to croak on your advice and then what?

I'm 5'9 (plus a little) and just over 230 lbs right now. In my avatar I was 212 lbs exactly because we all weighed ourselves the night I took that photo and I was dehydrated so I probably added another 2-3 lbs of water after I weighed. I was pretty lean. Well, lean for me. I don't know what my bodyfat level was or even what it is now. Right now, I'll just say "lots"? I need to lose about 15 lbs. I'm pretty certain I could come in lean as hell at 210. I know a lot of you are bigger. But I'm pretty pleased. I did not feal good at 240lbs. My blood pressure was not good and I just felt like an oaf. Lipids were a nightmare. I could barely sprint a 100m without feeling something was going to rip or break. I'm getting ready to start in on a winter diet and change my training over to more volume. I should lean out nicely (I'm getting pretty used to it). I'll be sure to get pics up well before spring rolls around. I'd like to see a side by side comparison of me from spring to summer. That's when I'm really hating life with all the cardio.

Curious. Does all this mean that my sig makes me fall into this shit list category OTH.
Info my sig is accurate. I have that there so all here can get a mental picture of what I look like. Minus the good looks of course.:p

If you want to put all that in your signature, that's cool. I just wanted to clarify to the board that it is not mandatory and really serves little or no purpose. But it doesn't give anyone any kind of picture of you.
But now that you mention it. You should post up a pic (if you want) that displays your stats. Newguy666 has some of his stats in his sig but theres a pic there. That's kinda cool just imo.
Like I said, you guys do what you want. It's just not mandatory and I don't want to see anyone telling new members they have to like it's a board rule or something - because it isn't.
My picture backs up my stats. I kind of like that in a narcissistic sort of way.:D:D

And before you type out all those stats, get a picture up so the long-timers know you're not just some full of shit board jockey.
Seriously though, why stop at just stats? Check it:
5'9
230 lbs
18" arms
501lb bench press
3" right index finger
Takes steroids but still has plenty balls left.
Likes long walks on the beach, skinny dipping, and long sweaty wrestling matches.

I reckon you should add 800mg deca/week, 100mg anapolon ed, 50i.u. slin in the morning and post workout ;and 500g of creatine in split dose pre and post workout. Dont forget your fats in your diet 1 gallon of cooking oil a day:D
