Yesterday was hurt-stoodles-feelings-day. Now you should just leave him alone!!
You're only as deformed as the rest of us
It could be a slight destabilisation of the AC joint, which may or may not be worth going to see a physio about.
However, most of what a physio would do in this case is release tension from what are probably tight pecs and make sure your rotator cuff and back musculature is working properly. That lot is actually quite easy to do yourself.
- Stretch/soft tissue work on your pec for 5 mins every day for two weeks (most problems stem from tight pecs)
- Stretch/soft tissue work on rear of shoulder, above and all around your scapula, and soft tissue work literally on your scapula. If it hurts, you're in the right place.
- Strengthen your external rotators and encourage better scap mechanics with face pulls (also an awesome mass builder for the shoulders) and YTWLs (videos in OP of form thread).
Allow me to ignore most of that delusional rant and those false accusations.
What I foresee being your continued problem here is the rather strange way in which you feel you can give advice. Reading an article on the internet does not qualify you to assume knowledge of the subject. Sure, you could make suggestions and discuss or ask questions about what you've read, but when you post about about it with certainty it is confusing for people who don't know better. People (myself included), don't like this.
Unfortunately, you have built yourself a reputation here. The regular posters know how much knowledge and training experience you have.
If you continue posting in this fashion you will find that people keep reacting to you in the way they are. For my part, I will continue to point out that what you've written is incorrect while expending as little energy as possible. Why? Because it is not my job to educate you personally, but I do feel that people casually reading this section deserve to read decent information.

All that volume... all that strength... still cross-arms front squats.
I *can* do them clean grip, I just find it more comfortable / easier to do cross arm at the moment. I'm a pussy. I know.
Next he'll be using straps :X
Wash your mouth out!
More likely to happen than straps

OK mate. I didn’t know that was how you interpreted it. Never really intended to sound like I knew what I was talking about 100%, but as this is a forum, I was just adding my two sense to the discussions...
I think the problem I have is I have a friend who has been training over the last decade (is lifting heavy before accusations of bro science come in – he's a Lyle MacDonald advocate) telling me things and of course they get ingrained in my thoughts and then I come across as if I 'think' I think I know what I’m talking about, when in actuality I have very little experience.
The problem is, there is a lot of unknowable people who lurk or very new to lifting. Come in read your **** advice and snap themselves up. It's people like yourself, with no lifting background or sound knowledge that leads to the internet being full of crap and then getting passed on and on.
It's like a giant game of bro chinese whispers. Ice knows his stuff and is listened too, take Delvis for example (no offence meant here bud) but he was snapped up in all kinds of ways, starts listening to Ice and posts up videos for Ice to correct. Delvis now has one of the best deadlifting technique I've seen and is becoming less and less snapped. Also a lot stronger than he probably thought he would be, all due to one forum member who actually knows what he's doing.
Start listening, be quiet and you'll go a long way.

That's what everybody in the gym says.
In all seriousness, outbreaks of acne can come from a number of sources. Chances are it's hormonal as your body adapts to larger background testosterone from your weight training.
