Okay fair enough... what does your 10+ years of experience include?? And where did you receive your degree from?

it's not about betrayal or anything like that -it's about people who come in here trying to make a buck off of others... If you want to help - help - you help by reading threads and answering questions based on your experience... prove what you know - dont tell us you're an expert and expect us to bow to you...

and the fact that your website (which looks incredibly spammish to me) says "Many of you know that I am in charge of Research and Development for Prograde Nutrition" - really makes me question your intentions.

You had a chance. You still do. Just b/c it's not packaged in a way you feel suitable or a way you like has shit all to do with the fact that the chance is still there.

Manage your expectations.

My 10+ years of experience helping people with weight loss allows me to say I am a trusted weight loss expert.
No.

Trust is earned. Here on this forum you are not trusted in the least. And you are surely not "America's Trusted Weight Loss Expert."

To boot, in my experience, people titling themselves experts are usually those who have stopped learning. That's a very bad place to be.


Quote:
I pride myself on people being able to trust that I will give them solid straight information.
Cool.

Quote:
I don't expect everyone to come to me, but I expect to be treated with respect as I have done so to those on this forum. Until someone does something fishy they should be innocent until proven guilty.
What you're missing is your title was all the fishiness needed to jump to conclusions. Again, you're only seeing things through your lenses where rainbows are bright and butterflies are a plenty.

Quote:
I have no problem earning your respect and trust as long as I am given a fair shot.
Mind you, fair is very subjective. I'd still say your shot is fair. Stop whining and start helping people if that's truly your intent. Your respect and trust will be earned through your dealings with members who are seeking help.

Period.

Quote:
Given the posts in this thread they have indicated that my help is not wanted. Maybe it is a knee jerk reaction because of others who have betrayed you.
No.

It's a knee jerk reaction to people calling themselves America's Expert. But you're wasting time that could easily be used to help others. So this should all be moot at this point.

Quote:
I will even provide a gesture of good faith and remove that title.
That's a good idea if you want to be taken seriously.

Quote:
Time will tell if we can treat each other with respect.
Oh boy!

Like I said previously. I don't expect you to welcome me with open arms. I just expect to be given a fair shot and treated with respect. If I am selling my services in my threads then you have every right to call me out on it.

I was sincere in my first post in which I stated I am going to peruse around and help where I can.

All I ask is to be given that chance.

Jayson

Are you banned?

No.

That means the chance remains open, so I'm not sure why there is more discussion happening.

I believe this is a dead horse at this point.

I gave you a chance and you didn't respond to my questions. Well?
