Hahahahaha just for the lulz!

I'm also the no towel guy, but whenever I'm done, I'll get some tissue to wipe it off.

Hey hey! he said tissue and wipe in the same sentence!

How about the dude that fiddles on his PDA/mobile phone/what have you gadget while sitting on a machine doing nothing.

Or the group of friends whom decided to do some bonding together by occupying several machines and using them as makeshift benches and yak yak yak all day without using them

and that reminds me, the 'gotong-royong dude' (i made this term up)

What happens is these group of dudes use one machine (e.g. fly machine) first dude sets it to some ridiculous weight. When i say ridiculous i mean it is obvious he cannot lift that weight. What happens is that another 2 dudes spot for him right off the bat.

Correct me if I am wrong, but a spotter is there is help in case there is a slip up, or during the routine from 1-10, you're struggling at the 9th cycle, he's there to help you finish the lap correct? So yeah, this one all gotong-royong and use the machine at the same time thinking that they're great lifting XXX weight rolleyes.gif

It's just civic consciousness. Simple rule really. If you don't appreciate it if certain people do certain things, then just make sure you don't do it.

E.g. If I don't appreciate how some people throw the weights around or let the machines bang (suddenly let go) then I don't do it.

Same principle to the owner of the gym. If I don't appreciate patrons spoiling or abusing my machines, then when I use the machines, use em properly - not making the gym like some haeavy industrial metallurgy factory
