No I dont feel its right to pay on a sponsored board. Because with that protection comes corruption. Like banning people for bad reviews or editing their posts or their reviews. Fuck that.
There's nobody that hates ProMuscle more than I do, but I'm also a realist. If you're going to risk your future by committing a felony, you might as well make the risk worth it. I would have no problem doing business on ProMuscle where I could easily turn seven-figures/year versus scraping the bottom of the barrel on non-source boards for a few thousand. Business is business.
Why do you keep saying bathtub brewer. I never understood that term. Are they literally making it in the bathtub?
Bathtub, bathroom, kitchen sink, whatever. They're all the same - one or two guys brewing gear at home.
