Does anyone agree with me?

[lifthard2005]

ok, so here i am at work, everyday and am constantly on AR reading, learning, and posting, but I have a problem with this.

Do we really need these huge banner ads saying the words "Steroids" everywhere? All I need to do is draw attention to this site and either it, or I could get in some heat over it.

Does anyone else feel this way? I mean, here I am posting and now there is a new huge banner saying "LOOKING FOR STEROIDS?.....CLICK HERE"

my boss doesnt need to see this and i think it should be smaller if anything....not in 72 font!

any input guys, how do you feel about this?

I nearly shit myself too.

[lucabratzi]

i know how u feel, when im in my shools library and it says steroid everywere on the screen and there's people around me that look at the screen it seems weird..

[Liftnainez]

i def. understand where you are coming from.. the smaller font may work.. but rem alot of what says steroids is advertisment which brings in money im pretty sure so....

[restless1]

if you feel that way, dont be looking at it at work......afterall it is a site about gear

[Teabagger]

lift I agree with you. We know what site we are on...or should. Doesn't matter if you're at work, home, or at school...it is hard to be on the site without anyone within 15 ft. being able to read STEROIDS. I understand about advertising, but subtlety works too. jmho.

[lifthard2005]

restless - i know itr is a site on gear, and it canstay that way, but do we really need to use such huge banners, flashing like in lights, etc????

i dont think so, that is what draws the wrong attention to these sites.....

the two main ones that bother me and put me at risk is the new one asking for your info in exchange for supply list, and, the steroid cleanse banner....these are viewable from at least 12 feet away...i mean come on, if u need to glorify that product and the fact you have suppliers lists, then you must be despirate or that product must not be good at all.......if it were secret suppliers list and steroid cleanse worked great, they shouldnt need such attrable banners to get people to go there.!.!.!

thats like a dope dealer driving around with the word POT on the doors like a salesman

[RuhlFreak55]

one word......scroll

[SVTMuscle*]

one word......scroll

yeah things are easly avoided.

He isnt gonna put ad's for Vacuums and Business Software on a steroid website what do you expect?

yeah we are all here cause we are at least mildly interested in using steroids, so what better place to advertise about them?

[hotstuff]

Those banners that you are complaining about are what keeps this website in business so that you can get all the info that you are getting. Web businesses are supported by their members and their BANNERS!! Sorry we can't put up banners your co workers would approve of.

I am on ar at work as well and am not a fan of the ar banner, i probally shouldnt be on this site anyways but f that

[chest6]

I can't look at AR anywhere but this comuter. I've tried to in the library and people whisper around me like crazy. I scroll quickly past the steroid ads but then theres half naked dudes in every avatar

[system admin]

haha Chest.. you need a new title bro.

bc

[chest6]

Yeah I know..I'm stuck with the one you gave me like over a month ago

LOL..........SAME HERE!

[hotstuff]

Most people I work with know Brian owns the site so I just tell them I'm helping him out with some stuff.......
but when people act strange about I always say that this site is about so much more than just steroids.....
then I pull up the old porn thread from Dansbrooks2k....:Behing the scene porn questions answered here"
They can't stop reading. True story......it's happened more than once.

They have no right to criticize me for looking at anything....porn freaks!

Don't view sites at work that you think may give a wrong impression to your superiors.

You are supposed to be working anyhow, not surfing the Net!

~SC~

[TADOLFI]

It's funny how people will criticize something they know absolutely nothing about. I used to get "roid rage" behind my back at work when on AR.
But when I can answer an exercise question for one of the employees I work with - it's altogether different.

After a few times of me giving good solid advice (thanks to this board and some personal training experience) I don't really hear much anymore.

And I notice the ladies checking out some of those Avatars that chest mentioned, asking me "who's that?"

yep, I second that. I can only open this site at home, not work or the library or anything for the same reason (the banners, the avys, etc) but it's ok, comes with the territory, ya know

haha.....you here one whispering then look right at them and say something like "you got a problem?" and then glare hard for a while.....they'll stop, and if they don't then look at porn or something

Maybe he shouldn't be taking STEROIDS!!!



STEROIDS

STEROIDS


Think someone standing near him will glance over and see the word
STEROIDS on the screen?

[littlemantc]

i agree with you 110%

[SwoleCat]

Yeah, or words like NEEDLES/SYRINGES/ASS/TITS

All of those could cause issues.

~SC~

[SwoleCat]

i agree with you 110%

Thanks, much appreciated.

[system admin]

maybe we should change the title of the forum to STEROID.com

Remember when everyone bitched at that and wanted me to change it... and of course I did.

It doesnt really change anything. It is a steroid site.

Just go to your CP and uncheck all avatars, and [IMG] images, etc.
The sponsors will remain but at least there wont be any "offensive" images, if I could call them that.

[system admin]

Actually... Here to ASSES!! I dont need titties!
