Any input....

Sorry if the response to the exercise suggestion was a bit abrupt, there should have been some sort of smiley after "yes."

Jokes every month being squat month on this forum aside, most lifters, and new ones especially, would be best served by just focusing on basic compound movements.

Yes, I agree.

less shenanigans, more hardcore posting.

Would it be possible to get the occasional handjob in this forum? Just asking.

Stickeys are tricky -- if you stickey every good link/thread that comes up, you wind up w/ a page full of 'em. If you make a generic "post your favorite workout" stickey, and leave it open, it becomes to unwieldy to be useful as you have to sort through 25 pages of crap where people bicker, jerk off, etc. Here's what would be GREAT: make someone a mod who's really interested in putting together solid synopses of materials/workout programs, etc. or someone who will create new articles (even if they're just collections of valuable tidbits like 'best bulking tips" etc.), and let them create stickeys for this forum over time. IOW, rather than us hunting through old threads, looking for good ones, it'd be better to have someone dedicated to this forum, who can cull through all the goddamned crap on the net, piece together well-written, useful articles or "checklists" or whatever, and turn that into a sticky. Of course, you have to find someone who's really dedicated to this stuff or interested in researching and putting together useful posts.

One sticky idear -- a single post comprised of the "best links" that us dopes submit over say, the next 2 weeks or something. Start a thread that says: posts your favorite links here, and then that can be consolidated into a single-post sticky using the best of the best.

Final idea -- Anthrax Invasion needs his own advice column stickey. "Anthrax Invasion, I'm fat what should I do? . . . Get off your stupid fat ass, stop whining, and kill yourself."

I second the Anthrax Invasion advice sticky idea.

I PM'ed stilleto about the polls today and he told me he would get on it tonight.

I also told stilleto about the sticky's.

i'm sorry eb- i've been swamped with phone calls for work.

and yes- nycgirl- i know i should be more active- since I competed, i haven't been lifting much cause I hurt my shoulder.

 

[anotherbutters]

I think we should can the polls too, but if we end up keeping them, then at least stop them from bumping just because someone has voted in them. And force them to have a timeout - who really wants a poll that lasts for a year?

I guess we could do with a sticky that's a bit of a FAQ. Somewhere we can point new lifters to. Maybe a set of questions where each is followed by a list of links to useful posts/articles elsewhere.

lol at the thought of an 'Agony Anthrax' column.

I understand. It's fine. It's not an emergency.

i know a lot of people have questions about WSB, and band set up. I am doing my best to post some pics. mabye we could have a sticky for WSB, and a place to put all of the pics for band set ups.

 

[nelmsjer]

Agreed: a sticky for WSB, a sticky for madcow, and heck, a sticky for HST.
