What I don't/can't understand is all the "loyal" Moderaters, Shawn and Flex.. on their forum turning their backs on Dave and John.. They should be ashamed of themselves, without John and Dave they wouldn't have had their opportunities.

Thats pretty messed up, I don't like the MD forums at all, other then Palumbo's Q&A thread, but I have to admit I liked NoBull radio, I thought it was a pretty funny show, that guy Jimmy "the angry bull" was a funny dude. They'll probably start something on their own, it seems like they have a loyal following..

That's bin deleted.

Hundreds of pages of solid info. Goldust

What a waste.

The Moderators/Shawn Ray sound like they are part of the Obama campaign.

"Change in inevitable"

well i was never a fan of romano, he added nothing to the website or the radio show. but palumbo will be sorely missed. His Q%A thread was one of the most read on the internet period, he worked on that website til 5am everyday and was always putting up new content, contest pics, radio shows, in the trenches videos etc......whether it was good or bad didnt matter, or if u liked it or not it didnt matter, that dude really made that site go.

Yup Palumbo was a Workhorse!

Everybody (Moderators, shawn Ray, Valentino, Layne) is towing the company line over there at the mo.
sickening.

All the garbage Steve B talks about "MD is a Famliy"
What a load of trash.

Shame about Palumbo's thread. I learnt from that thread when i was dieting.

Regardless of what you think of Palumbo, at the end of the day, he is a very smart guy who knows a lot about diet/nutrition.

Maybe Palumbo could post here on the Positive Board...?

THe whole thing was done so abruptly.

All His threads were deleted and all videos removed literally within a few hours.

That thread was hundreds of pages. I'm actually pretty pissed off cos Dave knows his stuff.

palumbo said alot of horseshit too though. he would make shit up...and also give blatantly incorrect or misleading advice at times.

on the whole he is helpful passionate friendly open......good guy in bodybuilding.

besides, who can get legit gh 100% of the time anyway ?

Their opportunities to what? Do a job for free?

Palumbo's thread was very good, I read a good 100 pages of it over time.

Another thing, and I don't mean this as a flame - I have never seen Flex post any form of decent post. Seriously. One can flame Shawn all they like, but he is articulate. Flex seems capable of nothing more then making a post using that annoying head banging smiley. Seriously, maybe he does post actual decent posts and I have missed them, but he strikes me as quite inarticulate and not a good replacement for either Romano or Dave.

Flex is a truely terrible spokesperson for MD
His radio appearances are awful. He loves to try and sound intelligent when he isn't.
Boring as hell, Terrible message board posts.

Shawn is pretty cool in that he understands the need to tow the company line/bullshit, but is still witty and intelligent.

Had a good build... When it's all about rims and rides, well, I think you need to understand that there's more to it than that.

Shows his general lack of intelligence.

I would say... I'm not really a fan... Yes.

There have been contributors like Layne (too many others to mention- I dont want to give them the publicity) that came in as a result of John and Dave and have had their stock increase as a result.. Even Shawn and Flex Wheeler for example.. Do you think he could have got in on ground level like those guys?

I thought as much, but uh, really just tossed that in to make the post seem a touch politer

Flex really only brings his past physique to the table, seems nothing more.

I totally agree. I'm willing to bet there were some secret meetings between Shawn and Steve with Shawn proposing some changes that would bring in more money...
That Ray is a sneaky fuck. GH15 needs to speak on this but he's gone now

Ray and Larry Pepe wouldn't have been bad.
