+ 15 How to vote for a source?

ad

Things to consider while voting. Your votes are for all us. They will truly differentiate where the sources are in ranks. you shouldn't just give 10s out because u received your gear or you got it for free.

There are four parts to it: Quality, service, pricing, and delivery

~Quality:

With quality we simply look for gear that is the right amount of mgs/mls . if you have been using gear for a long time , you should have a background of what kind of expectation you should get out of each vial. If you dont know what good gear should be like then dont vote for the quality part.

1) Overdosed Gear

When using say 500mg of test per week, like you always do with Al. however suddenly you feel itchy nipples. but you never felt itchy nipples before on 500mg of test w/ that amount of Al that u always use. Well the reason for this is that you got overdosed gear. Now some people will think this is a good thing, but what if instead of test e, its tren e, now your running around punching walls and dont know why. So why give that source a 10 for giving you the wrong amount of gear while it may have benefited you, it may harm others. i see it all the time. overdosed gear is not always a good thing.

2) Mediocre Gear

ok you got your diet&excerise in check, your making amazing gains then you switch to a different source's gear. Now your still making progress but not on the same pace as the your progress before. You have the right to assume (if nothing about diet/excerise or dose of gear has changed) that your gear might be a little underdosed but its still might be good. the source with mediocre gear does not deserve a 9 or 10 but rather a 8, 7 or even 5. So in closing, If your not getting the usual noticeable strength gains from an AAS compound then you should not give a rate that source with a high rating that says there gear is 100% excellent even if they gave the gear for free. some one else will buy their gear thinking that its excellent when in fact it might be a little under-dosed. if u start and take more dosage depending on how the gains/sideffects balance goes, your gear might be under-dosed. while its hard to determine how much your actually injecting, its still possible to tell if your gear is a little under-dosed. you should feel the difference if your only injecting 350mg of what ever compount instead of 500mg per week.

3) Under-dosed Gear

Its very easy to detect bunk or mislabeled gear. your not gaining any thing, and your getting fat. you ordered test e and suddenly u have deca dick. you got a blood test and your test levels are still at 700ng/dl. all those give the right to give that source a 1 to 4 depending on what you feel is fair.

Quality gear should give you noticeable strength ,size, and depending on your diet you should gain a specific amount of lbs. if your a new or a first time AAS user then you should not comment on the quality of the gear because you have no idea what to expect for you , unless its bunk or mislabeled which is pretty easy to discover then u can vote. if your new, and you only gain 10 lbs and was expecting 20lbs , still you shouldn't leave a bad review because we all respond differently to gear. maybe its not genetically possible for you to gain that 20lbs but 10lbs is your max, you dont know what to expect as a first time user. Once you have completed two or three cycles of the same compound then you have the right to go back and vote for the quality part because now you can compare.

~Service

Did The source answer all your questions and were they professional. were they a source that shipped you the right items. and if they wronged you in anyway, did they at-least try to make it right. if they did all of that then they deserve a 10. its really customer service and how you feel as a customer about the service. very self explanatory

~Pricing

Do you feel that the price and the quality match. I know some sources here are expensive but if they delivered you quality gear that you feel is fair then you should give them a 10. If they are cheap and they give you quality gear, they deserve a 10. if they are cheap and they give you mediocre gear then you should decide between a 9 and a 5 based on the level of quality if the price was fair or not. if they are expensive or cheap and handing out bunk gear then thats a 1 or 2.

~Delivery

If they delivered with in the promise T/A, you should give them a 10. if they delivered a week or two or three later then the promised T/A then they shouldn't get a 10, they should receive between a 9-6 . Sources with fast T/A shouldn't be looked upon as better then slower sources, but rather if they delivered with in that time frame they promised you. easy as that.

~the scale

10- perfect
9- almost excellent but not there yet
8-7 good enough but not the best
6 not meeting the requirement
5 and below . bunk and under-dosed and completely unfair

you get them by posting pics, writing posts that other people vote up.. contributing to the community and just being around you end up picking them up.. you use them to review but more importantly vote for your sources

Karma comes from giving good advice, self pics, gear pics and generally taking part in the community. You don't really need Karma except for giving SRC and gear reviews. I wouldn't make this about Karma though. Helping people safely use AAS and learning How to safely use AAS is why this forum exists! Heck I'm 37 and cycled gear all through my 20's. I thought I new a lot about gear.Now I'm learning new things daily!

Very helpful. Being new to the sight I want to learn as much as possible from the people who know as much as possible. I just got my order in but some of the things were missing. So before I vote on anything im going to give them some time to correct the situation. Also what is the best way to build karma points? I am having difficulty finding any information on this.

here's an excerpt of mine on another thread after a false review was written out of gratitude for his free gear:

we have to ask ourselves why we are here and what this place provides for us.
.
imagine a new member coming across raving reviews that were actually false and were posted just out of gratitude for free gear. if there is no integrity in the reviews, the entire system would be diluted and essentially serve no purpose.
.
i appreciate the opportunity to sample and review gear for any source. one thing i will not do is leave a false review out of gratitude. i will work the gear in when i can and review at the appropriate time, honestly. these expectations should be made upfront.
.
i remember a particular source (who i will not disclose) that hit the scene last year. he offered to send me and others a sample of some of his prop 150. i accepted and worked it in as a kicker to the cycle that began a week later. i ran it at half cc ED and got zero effect. bumped up to 1cc ED and still got no libido effects but did get oily skin. that was it... long story short, i left an honest review. that same day, he disappeared with everyone's money and never came back. imagine how many people would have been effected had i lied and left a false review out of gratitude for some weak gear.
.
without integrity, we are nothing.

i'm not gonna flame the guy or put him out there for it, but this should serve as an example as to why we should leave honest reviews.

Yeah brother. I've heard about this group. Freebies and plus one each other to death. Like you, I enjoyed when I was offered to sample and review for sources. But I always reviewed honestly and in due time. Even when I buy from a source and they bug me to review, I wait til I ran it long enough to leave an honest review. That's the way it should be.

I've heard from the grapevine that freebie promos are out the window. Can't wait to see our groups activity dwindle. Lol
