Who needs to step up MODS ?

I see a lot of post that should be moved to Nutrition, Training, or General chit chat. Its kind of a pain to read through the junk threads if you're really on the Anabolic board looking for say some......ANABOLIC INFORMATION !!!
So move those damn threads its annoying...
Oh I dont mean to be mean I am kinda bored...
 
i've been seeing the same thing... they should be moved

ex. "which are the best protein bars? "
that should be posted in the Supplements board
 
A lot of us have become a group of friends if you will and we hang out on the Anabolic Board. Thus if we want our posts to be read by the others we know, we post here. Not everyone goes to all of the different boards. The Mods know this and understand, thus the threads stay.

For example, Needsize's current pictures, they are here, not in the pictures forum. Many people here have been following his training and supplementing even before his last competition, it means more to us to see the thread and to him to get feedback and support from us. Thus instead of being moved it becomes a sticky.

I see and I understand. Its also hard sumtimes when you dont get those quick responses on the other boards as you do in this board.
 
Yeah I see it both ways. Im bored thats all. I wonder if the boars anabolic discussion/training/diet/chat were all inline people would visit them more frequently.

I understand what you are saying and respectfully disagree.

Frankly I think IF a lot of those threads were moved:

THIS board would be better because it would be more on-topic.

The other boards would improve becuase they would bget MORE posts.

One of the main reason for flames and drama would be GONE from this board (like kids asking prohormone questions, people asking off-topic crap in general) and THIS board woudl be even BETTER because of it.

In my opinion, at any one time, a good 30-40% of the topics on the Anabolic board have no place here, and could be moved or deleted and make the place better.

As for the "we are all Bros" argument, ... look I have a lot of compassion for people and help out people a LOT, but frankly the "we are all bros" argument is kind of a joke. Please, if someone's dog got killed or their mom has cancer, I feel bad for them, but frankly, posting such news on the anabolic board is insane. If people lives are SO void of personal contact, friends, and family that they look to AN INTERNET BODYBUILDING BOARD for personal support at such times, ........ then thats just sad. Really.

I wish everyone here well, but hey, if I have major news in my life or need some sympathy - this is the last place I will be. I have frends and family. I would hope that other guys who use this as a substitutute for such things in their lives would get some perspective.
 
I agree with JP, most of the bullshit threads get moved, but f a Mod sees a thread in this forum they use their own judgement to decide what should stay and what should go.

Sometimes I see bullshit which should go, and it usually does. Other times I see vets given more elbow room to post what they want to discuss. It is a judgement call, and I think the mods handle it fine.

What you could do is PM the link to a thread which you feel should be moved to a MOD. Bring it to their attention directly and let them tell you on a case by case basis why they will or wont move something.

Peace
 
a good suggestion might be to require Off Topic posts to indicate so in the title...

like the very next post I am going to make about my brand spanking new avatar.... the one with the cunt sucking me off.... (yeah I hate her fucking guts)....

(Uh, I wimped out... changed it back - sorry)

Although I tend to agree.

1. This board sees ALOT more traffic than most of the others, so in a way, it's understandable why certain things are posted here.
2. Supp questions and such (if the person is on cycle) although maybe belonging in the supplement forum do have a place here.

Yeah I agree, Term for mod, I was kinda disappointed when the mod choices came out, how is this guy overlooked?
 
I do move threads. However sh4dowf4lcon is correct, at least in what I do. I don't like to move threads that longtime members start and are participating it. If they have some thread of connection to AAS or body functions I personally won't move them. Another MOD might, and I'm not saying that would be wrong.

Sometimes training questions can be a tough call. They really don't belong here, but this being the Anabolic forum there's obviously going to be great interest. We all weight train. For example 40butpumpin's dunking thread. I enjoyed it a great deal, and he's one of the best members we have here. I would never move one of his threads regardless of the subject. Guys like him are what makes this board great. If you are refering to that kind of thing all I can say is it's hard to keep everyone happy.

If they are completely off topic I will always move them. If you see something you think doesn't belong feel free to PM me. Help is always appreciated.

People talk about nutrition and training (including the site admin)on this forum since this is where the topic will receive the most amount of attention and feedback. Here's an example:

http://boards.elitefitness.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=289135&highlight=Hemp+oil

That's just the way it is. I see more stupid "anabolic" related threads and questions on here (i.e. "I'm 18 years and want to do GH," "Can I drink the winny," "will steroids stunt my growth," etc. etc.) than anything else.

Newbies tend not to research the answers to some of these basic questions prior to making a post or starting a thread. Once in a blue moon a newbie will post a question that he has obviously researched to some degree. Those threads are unfortunately fewer and farther between. The most recent example of a thread where a newbie actually did his homework is this one here.

http://boards.elitefitness.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=295164

This however seems to be the exception and not the rule.

So Riker, if I had the clomid blues you wouldn't give me a shoulder to cry on??? :bawling: :( How insensitive!! :mad:

This may be "off-topic" but how you make your letters big like that?


You put SIZE and /SIZE in brackets like you would when you bold. If you just quote me you'll see the format in your reply.

Example.

DrVeejay is GAY!!!
 
Riker has been making that speech since before I registered. I agree it gets out of hand sometimes but you have to have a balance.

Wow! I learned a new trick!! How exciting!!!

I didn't know that but now it all makes sense. I just thought he a super nice guy. I never thought there was an underlining motive. :confused:

Yup.

Someone has to counteract that guys that would want to discuss everything from "which clubs are hot in Joizzeee" to "my dog is sick and I am so upset".

In fact when the whole scene went down a while back, and a bunch of Mods left, and people were being nominated, I told several guys who wanted to nominate me to NOT do so. I would have spent so much time deleting, moving, deleting, moving, etc. that I would have been quite unpopular.

I would rather focus on positive stuff.

Agreed. Term is a good bro and would make a great mod. ....even though he didn't reply to my essay long e-mail. ;)

That one a few weeks ago.....about all that computer stuff ;)

The only other one I got from you was the virus one yesterday...
