    Everything looks like it's headed in a good direction. There are a lot of members dedicated to helping others here and that's what makes this board what it is.

    I am really glad I found this place when I did. The amount of knowlege here as well as the willingness of the vets/mods/admin to help the newbie or casual user is really great. Although like many others when I first came here I heard some stuff I did not want to..it was stuff I needed to hear and I thank you all for taking the time to tell me.

    The only thing I would love to see is a feature where once someones age has been established on the board then anyone with admin rights ( maybe vets/ mods etc) would be able to add it to that persons profile. That way when a person posted an AAS question all you would need to do is click their user name and select view profile to see their age, instead of tying to wade through their previous posts to try to find it. This would greatly simplify the process of determining if help on AAS specific questions should be given. I don't know if this is do-able however if it is it would really be a great tool.

    Other than that you guys are batting a thousand, this site is the only AAS site I go to anymore and I am very glad I found it.

    New members no matter what forum or forum subject ever use the search function.

    I feel like new members might be more inclined to read the stickies if there werent so dang many of them. Maybe some can be cleaned out?
    Other than that the staff is doing a good job.

    As a member that lurked for years only using the search function, I realize how much a new member can learn by using it. The irony is their questions would be answered more quickly by searching than asking. Maybe politely encouraging folks to use it can become part of the culture.

    Funny, I just spoke with *Admin* and said the same thing about the stickies! Way too many and we will figure out a way to put them in ONE section for each forum. Stickies are important and should be advised for members to read, but to list them like they are is over kill I think. Keep the posts coming guys and thanks again!

    I've read all the write ups in the steroid.com front page, Massive help for me.
    I've been lurking for the last 6 months and decided today to sign up.

    I love the site. I personally think there should be more stickies and more professional articles.

    And make a rule that member need to make a percentage of their posts in diet and training section. They, IMO, are more important than aas.

    I love all the sections and use them daily. The injury and rehab section seems a bit wanting though...

    I know people get a little frustrated with new members asking the same questions over and over but imo thats all part of the process. When i first joined im sure many of the new members at that time were asking the same old questions but because i was new i never noticed and learnt something from the answers given. People naturally want answers tailored to themselves because they need that personal touch and confirmation that what their doing is right or wrong... Also remember that if these questions weren't asked over and over then there would be much less traffic, and finaly not forgetting those that are computer illiterate, as i once was, the search function maybe something they have no idea how to use....

    Imo the stickies are essential and believe me, ive been on sites where the first 2 pages are nothing but stickies, however i see no harm in compressing them...

    I believe the age thing is already a function although i believe at this time it is optional.....

    Some great points though and to be honest as a staff member and im sure the other staff would agree, its the general members that make this site, without you guy's the site would become dull.. Theres a great community here with members spending hours every day helping out and keeping this place alive and interesting and it really is an honor working with you all, on wards and upwards.........
    Do not ask me for a source check.

    The constant high traffic of new members drives this site to be the best steroid forum on the net by far, not sure how we can improve an already top performing site.

    Then again how about a free T-shirt to all members over 1000 posts and a Gold watch for all staff members

    How about downloading the forum runner plug in

    This will then enable iphone users to interface with this v bulliten board via an app rather than the iphone browser

    It will/shouod increase the speed and make the board run smooth for guys with iphones

    Or an actual AR App..... You may be the first site to do it????....

    Yeah I can see rocking a www.steroid.com Tshirt to the gym I'm sure that would raise some questions LOL. I could use a new set of wrist wraps though

    But on a serious note: This site has taught me a lot, not just about AAS but training and diet as well. The only thing i could suggest is possibly a feature that upon creating an account that the sites values and rules are clearly spelled out, The staff does a great job enforcing the rules and I know no one reads disclaimers and terms of service but If just a few read before posting we could save a few spammers and source posting.

    BC, Thanks for keeping this site going and helping to educate the public about AAS not just in responsible use, but helping to dispell the myths and missconceptions.

    I find this site to be very informative with helpful people.The stickies are 1 of the best features here.I think it should be mandatory for all us new people to read them before posting.

    ^^Great suggestion, and one I was going to bring up as well.
    More and more people are/will be accessing the forums from their phones or iPads or whatever device.
    Allowing users to access the forum via this technology will be an important step forward.

    -Many of the steroid profiles need updating to reflect new data.
    (For instance, I think the clen profile still recommends benadryl)

    -If not T-shirts for members and gold watches for staff, how about "Member of the Month"?
    Where a particular member is recognized on the forum for his/her contribution, content creation, attitude, etc.

    if i didn't find this forum i probably would have run the never recommended deca only cycle, so my nuts and myself thank you. but more importantly i have learned that there is more to building muscle than just aas and that is the importance of a strong diet. learning to eat correctly has far more benefit than i could ever wrap my brain around.
    now for a suggestion, how about giving a vet or a mod the ability to take a thread private. i see alot of 18 or 20 even 23 year olds start threads and marcus will be the first to reply and try dissude op from aas because of their age,something which keeps this board at a higher standard, and along comes someone telling op what to use and how to use it and the advice is usually bad.just throwing it out there

    That is a great idea.

    I not only love this site, but think it is great you want to make it better. I have never been a member of a forum that actively made changes.

    I like the idea of having stats being added so that we do not have to ask every time. Other than that I think this site is a great tool for anyone looking to get into the sport regardless of their level or training or goals. I surf this site daily, all day at work reading, and furthering my knowledge as well as trying to help where ever I can. This site kicks Butt!!

    This site is a wealth of knowledge; There is some repeat or cross over information, but this is typical with a forum and hard to avoid. I also like this site because... who else would I talk to about roids?

    I love this place; I visit here now more than anywhere else!

    I know there are exceptions, but it worries me that there are some folks who offer up suggestions or give advice who may not be qualified to do so. Maybe only allow members who have proven a certain amount of knowledge the ability to answer questions in certain forums, like PCT or advice on cycles. Like "vets" or "mods" etc.

    I'd like to see a bit of an update on the profiles pages, and cleaning up the stickies as well.

    But really, how much better can the best get?

    Nice job Matt, Marcus, Swifto, Admin, HP, and all the rest who make this place what it is.

    A respected person list, like when people ask advice they would look at a respected person list. The people on the list would be people who are known to give good advice, and have been recomended by users. Members like swifto bonparte and myself would be on the list

    Make a beginners section, and fill with appropriate stickies. Or make a vet's section for those with certain # posts or membership seniority .

    I personally spend most of my online time on this site. It's gotten to the point where my chick makes fun of me for it. I'm always reading threads, and looking at pictures. Love it here!

    Thanks
