    Your conspiracy theory is laughable. I know of only 1 other board and I don't think I've visited it this year.

    Yes things change, yes things sometimes change for the worse. Sometimes we can improve these things. Analysing them is the first step in this process.

    You say I am negative, then you have a little rant and slag me off.

    One type of behaviour that doesn't help this board is people posting their little temper tantrums onto threads.

    I've been away for a few days and I come back to 5 pages of posts on this thread, so I guess other members don't feel it is old.

    I'm suprised that not many people actually vote in the thead, some larger scale numbers for the sample would be more helpful.

    This boards nothing like it used to be, no. Not at all.

    Its adapts and evoloves, just like it should via a business point of view IMHO. Que the top banner.

    There are more newbies here than ever before. Whilst there are less more experienced members here, so the board quality drops. Thats not hard to workout.

    So you dont like the fact that newbies are trying to get educated before they do anything.. I live in the USA and the reason there are so many bad things going around about steroids and it is directly related to people not having a clue as to what thier doing and giving steroids a very uncallled uneduacuted veiw here in the states.. And thats why I try to give as much help to anyone thats here so they can do things right and not harm themselves.....

    Swifto ,

    So whats the answer than?? Close the board off to new members?? Hire knowlagable people to run it ?? I really dunno !! I am not affilated in anyway with this board or the people that own it as its really none of my bussiness( i have never meet them personally).. I do know it cost Brian alot to pay admin and others to be on staff , and to have top notich securety .. I just dont get it at all. I am mean where else can you go and get the type of questions that are coverd on here( other boards of course ) for free? I mean 10 years ago before the internet you had no way to aquire all the information on this site and even if you researced it there was really no way to get feedback from people that are acually using steroids( unless you had friends into it also)..

    So I think it is really GREAT that people have a place to get answers to the questions they have and end up doing proper cycles and do not harm themselves due to the help they get from members here.. Of course there will be bad suggestions just like in real life , but if you research you can tell who to listen to and who not to( just like in life..)..

    Oh well just my take on it all.

    x2... Lots of truth there Merc. The influx of noobs is high, but at least some of them are trying to become educated on the subject of steroids. At the same time there are still a ton just comnig here to 'take steroids anyways' regardless of being told they arent ready. But in a place like this, you win some and you lose some, eventually lots of noobs just become inactive and the higher contributing members still stick around, regardless of what happens.

    i understand wat he is saying i think merc.the board is awash with newbs which is ok.some of the repected more experienced members r gone which is wat it is.i think it wasnt a rip on the board as much as stating wat the situation is.i do believe there is enough knoweledge and experience on here to keep everyone safe if they will have it. not only that the people that r here do care and even if they r not experienced in every aspect of AAS they have enough knoweledge (or can find the answers) to deal with watever comes up. anyway i understand ur concern but people love to talk bout the good old days (not just this board either but life in general) and things r never as good as they used to be and thats how people are always gonna view it IMO. i love this board and the people we have r top notch IMO, peace
    i hope that makes sense its kinda hard to get down wat im thinkin right now and no i havnt been drinking,,lol

    This isnt about newbies joining, its about the quality that exists here of the senoir members, vets, mods. Many of the top members here (SwoleCat, Marcus, Nark) and many more have been outed, for one reaosn or another.

    They have been banned or no longer posts here and more new members are joining. So the quality obviously drops.

    The board changed direction, to suit the newbies. Not the experienced members and thats fine. It became a money making machine. From a business point of view as I said.

    This board used to be the place other boards talk about. It was the best IMHO. Its a great board, dont get me wrong. But its not what it used to be, plain and simple.

    There are a number of reasons why, but I'm not going into it. As my membership here would probably been terminated.

    Ask any of the older members. They will say the same.

    I could state my answers too, but I'll decline again. I'd probably get the same treatment if I stated my reasons. See above.

    Swifto I have been here awhile . I am in no way new to this board .. I am friends with nark and many others that have been banned.. Me and you even had pm's a few years back discussing some different protocols ( do you rember??).. That said

    I think the board is geared more towards helping new people and like it. I said in my above post this is a great thing seeing the current misinformation in the USA ( and many other countries) regarding steroids .. Maybe there should be some sorta private board created by some vet/mod or whoever that only caters to people with extensive knowlage in AAS and picks and choose who they allow to be members or not. But this board is not like that...

    As far as what others are saying about us I really dont give a shit .. I just worry about our members not peeps on another boards. their are alot of people that bash us just because they are banned and or pissed because the way the board used to be run was changed. All this shit doesn't matter to our new members , their here just to learn about using AAS in the proper way not into hearing some old ass soap opera shit that at this point is old news and is really played out... I dont see why we cant just focus on all helping each other out as that is the reason most join this site , to get help...

    Thanks man,


    As members thats the great thing we dont have to concern ourselves with any drama that goes on behind the scenes . We can just learn and acheive the high quailty of fitness that comes from incoroprating proper cycling, diet and training protocols...

    I think to some extent it's human nature to consider "the good old days", as the golden time when things were better. In my opinion if we were back in the days some remember so fondly and asked these same questions, someone else would have remembered times prior to those as the "good old days", etc.

    I think the board is geared more towards helping new people and like it. I said in my above post this is a great thing seeing the current misinformation in the USA ( and many other countries) regarding steroids .. Maybe there should be some sorta private board created by some vet/mod or whoever that only caters to people with extensive knowlage in AAS and picks and choose who they allow to be members or not. But this board is not like that...

    As far as what others are saying about us I really dont give a shit .. I just worry about our members not peeps on another boards. their are alot of people that bash us just because they are banned and or pissed because the way the board used to be run was changed. All this shit doesn't matter to our new members , their here just to learn about using AAS in the proper way not into hearing some old ass soap opera shit that at this point is old news and is really played out... I dont see why we cant just focus on all helping each other out as that is the reason most join this site , to get help...

    I remember but very vageuly (sp). I'm sorry, I get a fair few PM's.

    I wont debate this subject openly. You could probably work out why. If you want my thoughts, PM me and I'll reply with my email address. Then I dont mind at all.

    As much as I dont like whats happened around here in recent times, I'm still here arnt I. I also still try to give helpful information to those in need. Though less in the S&A Forum and more via PM's now.
