Why?
I arrived on this board in November of 1998 it was much different then. I was off and on until 2003 when I was on alot more.
After countless times of reporting the outright racism and nothing being done about it, I'm done. It's ran its course. It's not about being able to take it or anything like that. There is a point in time when enough is enough. Nothing good comes out of all the hate and negative speech. I've tried to be a fighter against it and before I knew it, I was participating.
Contrary to popular belief, me getting "owned" had very little to do with it. Too much negative energy here. I've been on many bodybuilding boards since 98 and this board is the worst modded when it comes to hate speech towards blacks, browns, Middle Easterners (minus Jews) and Asians. It's unacceptable and one of the reasons many good people leave.
I wish all the people I had great times with the best.
Call it a meltdown or whatever. It's the truth.
