Looks like MODs are back to 2011 levels...

Where's the fucking thread? Did I give you authorization that you could just go ahead and delete that shit? Now we have people responding on the 410 for 2 only vid... WTF?

Dumb as fuk... Straight back to August 2011 shit that, that one annoying half Japanese guy would always do to my shit.. Just start deleting shit without prior authorization.. Where's my Krueger fucking video that I just made as well?
So now I have to do a fucking repost on both of those at some point today.

Hi Matt. You're welcome to post on the forum, but please be mindful when creating multiple threads at the same time. Doing so often results in low overall engagement, and users frequently end up reporting them as spam (Rule 5.1). Your threads are not always suitable topics for discussion, and you often don't seem interested in engaging with the users who reply to you. If you limit your threads, follow the rules, and engage with the community, you won't have any issues with the moderation team.

Right the spam terminology... Talking isn't spamming.. Just like typing and posting wasn't " trolling " in 2011... So what happened to the " trolling " terminology from 2011???? No longer being used here?
They're just words.. It's content..

I warned you all way back in 2012 that this would happen to the site if the MODs got out of control.. Looks like I was right... So what are you trying to do? Have less users? It's not spam.. It's not trolling.. They are threads.. Because there's an option for that...

Seems inflammatory as hell that now I only have my 410 for 2 vid on the main page.. When there was actual updates to that situation.. And I just got done doing 420 for 2 yesterday which went up like a joke...

Like actually seems intentional... Delete the greater one to make people think i'm only at 410 for 2.. Umm.. No... There's called updates.... we're at 420 for 2 now... And then next week i'll be at 430 for 2 easily..

That's great to hear, and sharing your workouts is not the problem at all. The feedback we're receiving is mainly about the high volume of threads you're creating and the fact that some of them are difficult for others to understand or engage with.

Yes it's opinion, however the community also has a voice in this. When multiple users report threads or find them hard to follow, we have to take that into account.

That said, I want to find a solution that works for you. If I created a dedicated section or personal forum area just for your workout logs, personal bests, and training updates, would you be interested? It would allow you to post more freely without the same restrictions on thread volume.

Let me know what you think.

Not really.. When you have 93 percent of your users probably just ghosting in as usual to read stuff without posting. That was the situation in 2011 as well..........Plus they have a block option... Which there shouldn't even be a block option... Let people talk.. Nothing should be deleted....

You're all not catering to anyone when you delete stuff.. Let people talk and then just have it there for us all to read it....

And no I would def not be cool with that...... If I was making millions of dollars like Josh Kerr is right now off of his fitness levels,, then yeah I would be cool with that.. Def not cool with that... That also seems inflammatory as hell....

I read that on a bathroom stall once.. The wording was " If you feel the need to color anymore, there's a crayon at the front desk and we'll be happy to allow you to express your opinions " At an Italian restaurant.. So no.. def not cool with that....

You really need work on what it means to just MOD.. Meaning don't do anything.. Nothing needs to be actually deleted because there's not one single person out there that needs catered to and needs that deletion to take place.

I understand you don't want to be ignored, but we have to manage the forum based on how it actually functions today. When too many threads are posted in quick succession, it makes the forum feel cluttered and less enjoyable for everyone. That's why we have rules around thread creation and content quality.

We're not going to remove the ignore option or stop moderating/deleting posts. A forum without any moderation quickly becomes chaotic, full of arguments, spam, or off-topic content etc.

That being said, I'm still happy to create a dedicated space for you where you can post your workouts, logs, and personal bests more freely, with relaxed rules on thread volume. Would you like me to set that up for you?
