    Exclamation All Members

    ANABOLICREVIEW.COM WEBSITE IMPROVEMENTS

    We are trying to make what i believe to be a great site.....even better. It is our goal to make this the BEST site out there without a question in anyone's mind. And it is very important how you guys feel and what you guys think about the website.

    Please feel free to let this thread turn into an open discussion for what we can do to the website to make it better. If there is something you dont like - let us know. If there is something you would like to see there that is not - let us know. If you feel some of the information is less than accurate - please dont hesitate to comment. We would like to hear any and all feedback on how to make this the best site on the web for YOU.

    Just an FYI - We are currently doing the cycles over again and the drug profiles, so we are aware of some changes that need to be made in that regard already.

    An example:

    Under "24 Hour Suport" in the left hand navigation bar - the title "Message Board" is spelled incorrectly to say "Meassage Board" (Which Key pointed out I believe - correct me if I am wrong)

    Stuff like that or information based etc. ANYTHING that would make this site better for YOU.

    All opinions are welcome.

    Thank you -

    M

    Not just the board bro, Anabolic Review too. But if there is a change to the message board that you would like let us know too. I am currently working on many changes right now. Smilies were the beginning (still working on it) but I have a ton more things I am going to do. If you see something on the web that you like, let us know and I will do my best to make it even better on our board.

    Yeah man, you can elaborate a little bit from there though. LOL We need specifics when everyone makes a suggestion. I am working on new graphics for the board right now, but what I am working on and what you are talking about might be totally different.

    YOu dont need to add anything else to the site theres only so much you mods can do its up to the people to make this a good site that it should be. The site itself is very easy to access information. Its now time for the people to make it what it can be. New graphics isnt going to help anything if its not broke dont fix it...........

    Well. I think that the board is good right now and there is no problems. It's up to us to make it be the best out there. I don't think that you should change anything on the board. You could add some smileys, but it's no necessary, because we know the deal and we are not lazy to find them.
    The only thing that you guys should do is update the AR site (you probably know that one already).
    Right now everything is great. Remember, the more new technology you put into this board, the more likely the stuff will brake down sonner or later and will casue more problems.

    We are talking about the site - not the board - please give suggestions about the site - not the board.

    not to disrespect anything here but im just gunna type short but sweet answers here so dont get offended

    1: lose the pop-up that come on everytime i visit the site.it annoys me

    2: dont count number of threads of bullshit posts or conversations not pertaining to the subject,( i for 1 take the number of posts someone has as some kind of statis or experience symbol and if someone has 300 posts,rated as senior or vet and all they do is say "welcome bro" to new members,or bullshit ,sometimes i wont even read a thread if there are more than 10 replies figuring it has been covered and they guy didnt even get 1 good answer to his thread.(keeping it short and sweet here).

    3: papapump has to tell everyone how to add the wacked out pictures to their threads,(thanks for telling me but still cant figure it out)

    4: if there is a way to block out new threads that have been asked more than 10 times that would be cool.it seems like alot of shit is said too many times example: i just did a shot of sus yesterday and my ass hurts,did i do somthing wrong.
    maybe put a pop-up on those threads saying look 4 threads down asshole would be good.i know its good to keep the news circulating but come on people do some researce here ok.

    5:maybe auto refresh the page every so often

    thats all i can think of off the top ofmy head,hope noene got offended

    Ok I've stared at the main page for like 15 min and this is all I came up with....

    1. Along with the printable workout log, maybe a printable daily dietary log.

    2. Along with the black market prices maybe put another page with Mexican prices....

    3. a scammers list

    4. a disclaimer telling sources not to advertise here

    Thats all my bright ideas for now

    I got one, this one will solve many questions.

    Put more full diets in the Diet and Fitness section. I mean like some 3500 cal, 4500cal, 5500cal diets wit 350-450g protein. I mean like the whole weekly log. I know that this is lots of work, but it will solve many questions and it will halp out many people.

    The chat room right now sucks really bad and it should be only for AR members. I go there and I see peoples names that I never seen before.(the chat should have the same rules as the board, maybe a little more strict, you as for source your BANNED)



    (C'mon Ron, I ran out last week I need more. JK Did you get that penis enlargment pump yet, the one that you were asking for )

    Bump

    The Iron Game Guest
    how many guys use the chat board frequently?

    the pop up is a little irritating at times and one other thing I can suggest but when I am scrolling this site and not in a post the title of the page is Steroid Questions which needs me to hide it alot when people are walking by. Its one of the reasons I dont visit the site too much when im not home.

    I think we are slowly getting there Mike and J

    Thanks for the bump PA

    Thanks for suggestions everyone - just to address a few of these....

    Yes I think if we put some stuff on the site and then I could place it in my signature and just answer those post that way that would help. Just telling them to refer to a link in my sig etc.

    Also - I agree with you 4plates on the # of posts thing. There have been a few threads that were made JUST to bump number of posts and that stuff bugs me. Because members DO place credibility in how many posts one has and some people here have abnout 700 posts but really have not helped much. I am NOT thinking of anyone in particular before ya'll get worked up!

    And dont be worried - I am not offended at all - this is EXACTLY what I wanted - i appreciate it very much. To be honest I HATE that pop up wondow - it pisses me off!!

    As for instant refreshing - I wouldnt recommend - i have thought about it but the problem is if I leave my desk while in the middle of something and the board refreshes it will fuck me up when I get back. I just continually click the symbol in the upper left to constantly refresh me on the main forum page.

    Good idea on Mex prices

    Good idea on disclaimer on source posting

    Good idea on scammers list

    VERY good idea on the chat room - i think it should only be an access you can view once registered into the message board - makes total sense to me and I know it is possible to do

    We are in the process of reviewing EVERY drug profile as well as adding over 10 more and adding ALL NEW cycles for women AND men

    Bad idea on the penis enlargement

    Bad idea on the viagra sourcing

    And we do have an FAQ page but I guess we could put that up here as well for stuff like loading pics etc etc -

    We will discuss all this and then some - my main concern is keeping the board fast though - there are some boards out there that i wont mention by name that put too much info on the forum and it slows it WAY down - but we can atleast have hyperlinks I think - the whole board is changing soon...

    keep them coming - thanks guys

    Just addressing one thing here. I cannot control what the board counts as a post. I have no control over that. I wish I could, but it can't be done.

    I can get a chat board on here that is only accessible to members. It will take time, and I really want to find a way to make sure that he person makes a certain number of posts before they can use it. I really don't want someone newly registered trying to get on there asking for a source. I will work on getting the code for that.

    I would absolutely LOVE a chat room. I know we have one, i think i went to it once and it didn't work. Chat would be fun, to see how people talk in conversations instead of just threads. For real PT...all i want for christmas is a fun chat room.

  25. #25
    Mike Guest
    LOL

    Yeah it would be a good idea if people used it

    But I think they would if the link was ON the message board. How would you guys feel about a chat room only for people with 100+ posts and a link on the message board so that more people used it??

    You know I said thing last night about this hot brunette..., oh sorry nevermind. I am going to work on the chat room. It will not be easy because there is a ton of coding to get it to work. I will research that this weekend and see what I can pull off.

    Back to the topic.....Any other suggestions?

    Mike...

    I think the post number criteria is a bad idea, because few posts up you agreed that number of posts doesn't mean a member knows anything about steroids and training. I have read posts from people who have unbelievably high number of posts, and have never done a cycle in their life, and don't really exert much knowledge at all.

    I don't have as many posts, and I know that the only way to get the number of posts needed to gain access to the chat room, is to post crap every day, and then I can talk to knowledgeable people. I think this criteria is actually calling more rookies to post crap just to gain access to chatroom.

    No offense.

    One more thing...

    In Steroid Half-Life section, if it's possible could you put up a list of all steroids , or just the more common ones and their half lives, because I feel that text there is too general, and is not to the point.

    what about this one either 100 post or 1 month on board. So they are both valid and you only have to get on of those requirements.

  34. #34
    Mike Guest
    The thing with the post validation for the chat room is if we let anyone in there we would have scammers just squatting in the chat room waiting to offer people gear without ever having to be on the board for a while.

    The only way around this would be to make it a time registered on board AND/OR post count or something.....I dont know....

    (BTW - no offense taken at all brother)

    I agree that the cycles and drug profiles needed an update. I find that most cycles recommended on the board are totally different from the cycles on the site. One thing that would help reduce steroid abuse would be to have cycle effect ratings right next to the cycle. I know that they are listed somewhere else, but thats just for single steroids , not stacks. Some people would learn quicker if they had ratings for mass, strength, and fat loss that applied to the cycle they want to do. Also, you could link cycle info to threads that discuss the particular stack.

    Kind of...But i do know that Big Al was here for a LOONNNGG time before he ever cycled. And he definately knows what he's talking about. Same with Dan Duchaine. He was what....160 soaking wet? He knew his stuff. I like the idea. But i see where you are coming from bro.

    Mike,
    I think having a certain number of post to get into the chat room is a good Idea. If you make it a time thing any scammer could register and come back in a month or two. If you make it by the number of post then people have to post occasionally. This will make them become accustom to the rules of the board and get a feal for smart asses like myself before they just rush right into the chat room and ask everyone for sources.

    regulated chat room

    Hmmm.. I agree with V, 47 john and ect... I'm on this board alot and just cruise through threads and posts for more info and other peoples feedback without posting, other wise I'd be in the thousands. So putting a minimum on members entry to a chat room kind of defeats the purpose for us not to ask ?'s before we research. JMO.
    First, I do think the profiles should be accurate to the info we get from the Vets and mods, too much contradicting info between the two. Then again im a follower not a leader
    Another idea is to set up a instant messenger for the board Instead of always Pming someone if thier online.

    Otherwise, My Lord; I like it just the way it is

Because without books being sold on the website, the website would cease to exist. Not trying to flame, just speaking the truth.


    Fast results, there is a chance that I could install a fully functional MSN Instant Messenger into the website with some code work. Is that what you are talking about?
