Why You Shouldn't Accept Free Samples From Sources

[Whoremoans]

True, that's not what this is about. Just pointing out that it's not cut and dry.
I pinned free gear today. Whoremoans is gonna pin the free stuff he got from onyx.

I bet lots of us have gotten a free vial in a pack once in a while.

And for the record guys the free stuff from onyx was just a replacement for bunk test E that I paid for.

Great topic for the new members, and many wise answers.As my late father taught me young. Said there's nothing free in this world..don't owe anyone anything.Be a man and earn it!

So are you saying they exchanged bunk for bunk, seems fair IMO

This is most likely the case lol. But like I said earlier I like to be optimistic. That being said I wouldn't order from them again if it was the last source on earth.

No gear whore zone?

Everyone is free to do as they wish but I personally could never accept freebies. I will not have my name, credibility, or integrity questioned bc of a source's possible duplicitous nature.

Maybe a middle ground would be if you got the gear for free or discounted for a reason not applicable to everyone else you should refrain from writing a review. I still would opt not to take the gear but not everyone will choose the same.

CBS, maybe another thing to touch upon in regards to this topic:

Maybe we shouldn't announce in public who will be testing what. By that I mean you have members who freely announce they're going to order from XYZ source and going to do bloods and labmax etc. This gives the source a heads up on who potentially might be testing and allows them to sneak the good stuff to them without flying under the freebie radar. It should be assumed everyone or no one is testing...make your decision in private and keep it that way until after testing is complete. That way the source cannot slip better gear to the testers.

Very good point about testers remaining anonymous. Same goes for why members shouldnt accept free gear for reviews. The source will have the advantage of sending their very best and can skew true results.

Now I'm not saying just because a source has been around for awhile that they won't suck.. Look at Karius, Mike Strong, Ultimate and other shitty "labs" that have been "in the game" for over a decade!! I'm just saying you have a better chance than going with someone with zero history.

WOW!! How did I forget to mention ManWhore on this list?!

I gotta get some sleep.. haha

Random testing is the only way that we get the goods on a source, but I don't know of 1 ugl that is consistent and most vanish in 6 months.

I have never wanted to use an unknown source. After a few months, if none of our official testers gets sick, I would feel better about the source in question. There isn't any other way, but I'd rather someone else gets his ass cut open.

Conclusion:
members who except free gear from sources will most likely receive good quality gear since the new UGL is trying to prove themselves which results in the member not having to pay for quality gear ..

Wait a minute
Why is it not good to except free gear again

That's what they always do, which is why I never accept replace replacements. What's the point

 

[rpbb]

By the way, I'm older than most people here, and one of the major lessons I've learned in life is that there is no such thing as a free lunch

I believe after the tests come back n dreams r shattered more of us will learn to brew.

We might HAVE to! I guess it's a gamble either way...either on the raws, or the finished product.

Brewings not that hard. It still boils down to being able to find a quality raw source that's consistent.
