Everyone read

I have been back on the board a few hours and I am already tired of the bitching and whining of certain people, making situations out to be direr and yet it is a personal issue between a few people and then they go out and cry like drama queens. This board will prosper whether with or without you. If you have a problem , email me or bads with it, because if I see the continued whining I will boot you with the trouble makers. We are all grown ups , fucking act like it. Being a MOD on here is more than just some guy that is liked , he has to be very knowledgeable so he doesn't risk anothers life. So before anyone decides who is best , remember who owns this board and incurs all the expense , especially since his board is not for sale in ANY way..... All have been warned and I thank any who will help me fix what is deemed wrong.

Thanks Zidane. Can you do something to make the sources ratings system adjustable? Giving a rating only once doesn't always give an accurate rating over time. I might hate a supplier's service today and love it later after they change their ways (vice versa is more likely, but hopefully you understand my point).

I'd also recommend editing/adding suppliers, seems like we have some on the list that are either unreliable or haven't been used in a long time.

Just my opinions.

There is a lot of entertainment value in some of the drama. It's fun to read and keeps me coming back. Want the board to be safe, but hate to lose some of the color. Hope we find a happy medium.

[zidane9979]

Ya its tough because , it would also allow for unhonest people to jack up ratings. I will talk to admin and see what we can do....

I agree with all the stupid bickering, it does make the board less appealing. What I don't understand though is exactly what you meant by " being a mod is more than just being someone that is liked." I am fairly new to these forums, but I rarely see mods giving cycle advice more than any other just regular member. I would only assume a mod was someone who "moderated" and monitored the board on a daily basis. I also understand within reason that sometimes it's impossible for someone to get online everyday, but In the same sentence there are vets on this board that do, and have been on here everyday. No offense, and maybe you took offense zid when people stated we needed more mods, it was not malicious against any of the existing mods, just a statement. The members are what make this board a community. I don't know who owns this board, and he covers expenses correct but this is a pay site, so I'm sure he is not in debt. That's none of my business though, but it was addressed in your post. Yes, the board will go on with or without the people on here now, but it should not have had to come to that.

Agreed. I think people lean on the mods for specific AAS advice and are usually considered "experts." With that said, none of us should EVER take important medical advice from "civilians" lightly. It's reasonable to seek out preliminary advice from the board, then confirm through other sources.

I also think too many liberties are taken by the advice givers on all boards. All too often an opinion is stated as fact and without corroboration. Ideally, people qualify their advice with "I found this article, or according to this source" and then suggest a possible answer.

I'm relating to everyone on this at some level. The drama is entertaining a bit but then it can go too far. Funny thing is it's usually over trivial stuff that really don't add up to much. I think it's kinda fun postin on this forum and I'm not a member anywhere else. I like to joke around a bit but I also give advice on some things I have experience with and am serious about what I'm saying. I'm not the most knowledgeable when it comes to aas but have a few years experience with some of them and try to stick to those. It's hard to say you are an expert on aas and I like to stick to the basics. People respond to them diferently..probably because of a thousand different factors. Even when you are under a doctor's care he will use a certain amount of trial and error in treating you. So you really need to your own expert and be honest with yourself about what is or isn't working for you.

I think the posting is fine on this forum. I always try to take the attitudes with a grain of salt. I got me some plenty attitude myself lol. who don't know dat!? But hey at least I aint as bad as BT lol. He flamed everybody and took his ball and went home..AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Maybe he'll read this and come back and flame me lol. Ahh it'll be good to hear from the guy. He did contribute to this board quite a bit.

[megaman85]

You say that though cookie, but some of the mods and even admin has in his signature, DO NOT COME TO ME WITH PM for cycle advice LOL. I dont know man, im not trying to piss anyone off, including zidaine, i just call them how i see them. Im still here everyday, and probaly always will be. I just dont feel that a MOD has to be a steroid guru, but i could quite possibly be wrong. If so, than I apologize. Not taking anything away from zid, or the other mods like ive stated before.

Yes, the show will go on, and now that the problem has been addressed, its all uphill from here. Live long and prosper.

I'd rather live long and prop lol.

Good point, I 4got about that signature. Well, a mod helps run the business and the owner has to trust the mod to run it his/her way. That's prolly the toughest qualification to find.

Well said Bro!!!

I would love for everyone just to have a great time on the forum fellas and enjoy all that we have here. I myself have now been in the game for 15 years and have popped up on every forum over my years and also belonged to a board that we were treated like kids, if you cursed, if you even put one word on the forum about a supplier robbing you and even typing in bold red letters just to make yourself stand out from others got your ass banned.

I personally feel some of the newer members might feel a MOD knows all about AAS but they need to understand sometimes a MOD may be here because they have a lot of knowledge about the subject of AAS which is a bonus but like ZIDAINE said "YOU NEED A MOD THAT IS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT AAS BECAUSE PEOPLES LIVES CAN BE EFFECTED". MY personal opinion is Zidaine isn't saying at all that he knows more than everyone on this forum but I know for a fact he has a back round which is second to none in helping ADMIN find the safest sources on the NET. which brothers does protect us. I see on many other forums SOURCES that have been found to have fucking POISONS in their brew and I still see them listed but never since Zidaine has been in the game around here we don't see them appear in our V.I.P area.

ADMIN has stated a few times that he runs pretty basic cycles and since I've been here he has listed pretty much all of them, so anyone could just search for his cycle advice. I personally have been on forums where the ADMIN has never posted once but on this forum we have an ADMIN that sometimes jumps in and bull shits with the fellas sometimes which is awesome. If you choose V.I.P then yeah you pay a fee but I believe Admin when he says he gets zero kick backs from Sources. I also know this forum runs much smoother than others and has programs installed that cost money which most boards don't have. I would also suggest even if someone did make some cash from running an amazing forum, it would be well deserved.

I've personally have went off the wall in the past but after speaking with ADMIN a few months ago, most of my issues were handled pretty fast fellas.

We can all continue to have an amazing forum by letting the MODS and ADMIN do their jobs which unless you've been around for at least 10 years in this game I'm think most of us, including myself don't know it all. I don't want this forum turning into some of the other boards where we have MODS baby sitting us all day long, the new guys can use the search button if they even took two minutes to find it before posting something that has been asked and answered 10 million times. I see when a newbie does post most of the time someone helps them out really fast and we all as brothers help a lot of new comers to the world of AAS. I HOPE WE CAN ALL CONTINUE TO BE BROTHERS HERE,LEARN FROM EACH OTHER AND JUST HAVE FUN.

Ok fellas, come on and flame me now...lol.........GOD BLESS.

[admin]

First, as I did state the same in VIP as Zidane has said. Some guys who do truly want to help the board, get carried away and it does scare away new members from posting. These are guys who are new to steroids, have questions to ask, but they see some of the responses they get from veterans and are afraid to post. I get messages all the time from new members, and some of the other veterans who are sick of the shit and bickering going on.

Second, my signature says to post in the forum so it a) makes the forums busier b) others can give an opinion c) you'll get a quicker response because someone is always on d) There are several members here who know a lot more than me. I'm old school, I'm behind on times. I'm on about 400mgs of test right now! lol

Third, as of recent we started implementing a small fee for sources to be listed. But the sources are told straight up they can be removed at any time, as well, no posts or ratings will ever be edited, as they are on some boards for the right price. I know there are some sources listed that some people don't like, but that's what the ratings and comments are for. I've removed some sources in the past, and have had numerous members message me and ask why I removed x source, because they have been using them for years. Some members have recommended to use x source, which I don't like to see, but at the same time new members prefer personal recommendations. For the ratings, I'm not sure if I can get a better system than what we have, I'll have to see. But the comments section atleast has the newest information, even if some of the ratings are from years ago. (CD, sorry I dont think I replied to that message a couple weeks ago.)

I agree

[cookiedough]

Thanks Admin, I see the sources ratings as a fluid number like blue chip stocks. Things change over time and sometimes quickly. Obviously, reading the most current comments is the prudent thing to do, but that isn't what many newbies do. They look to the rating...
