We've been gathering votes and rating sources for three years now, and it's time to update the way we display your votes.
Fact is, things go south or turn around in a matter of months if not weeks for sources and this is something eroids' "voting logic" did not take into consideration.
We have been including up to three years old votes in our algorithms, which doesn't necessarily reflect current public opinion.
So this is what I came up with.
Your votes (and source's score/rank) are separated chronologically. Eroids will now show you who received most and best votes in the last month, last six months, and last 12 months.
This effectively gives us a new outlook.
-
Stale (for lack of a better word) scoreboard represents our old system - with votes up to 12 months old.
This table might not realistically represent current public opinion, e.g. source's support or quality went down (or up) in the last months, but they're still resting on their laurels, due to many old (stale) votes. -
Trending scoreboard is a representation of votes placed for a source in the last month.
Use that to see who is rising or upcoming. It also shows you who is consistently being pumped with best and most votes on monthly basis -
Stable represents a collection of votes received in the last 6 months.
This is the default display. It's what I feel most accurately represents current state, with a pool of votes big enough to vouch for source's stability.
You know you have a winner when you find a source in all three categories.
It means the source has done well over a period of 12 months (stale), is getting constant support by users (trending), and have proven themselves worthy of your attention in the near past (stable).
Other than separating votes by timestamp, and cutting off votes older than 12 months, no changes to algorithm have been made.

TAS legit? I just ordered from them last week and they aren't even on eroids no more.
Hey there. Any word about your TAS order?
I'm 10days out and no response from them. I hope we didn't get screwed here.
I'm hoping that there just restocking.
Hi,
I have left 3 positive reviews for 'Trustedanabolicsolutions' over the course of a year and after submitting the reviews, it seems I'm always shut out of posting a star rating for them. Is there a trick to it? Hit me back.
Cheers,
Bikeracer.

Hi bfg if a source has just not long been submitted and has 2 fake reviews to his name, then he starts getting good reviews from people you know, will the source ever be verified, or is it black marked forever,
I say this because there is a source who has products that are hard to source , that are my favourite gear ROHM mtpm , ttm, test hept and also has some great product at good prices.
I now see some people in my friends list have bought products and written reviews.
But I made it a rule not to buy from an unverified source, but he's starting to look decent now
Kind regards

Trying to vote Pharmastore.in for the best overall sit across the board. Would also like to speak to a rep about the free samples for voting and reviewing but am not certain my vote counted since I don't understand the Karma system.
Probably not the best thread to talk about free samples for votes.
Hi
How do I add my site to the list of sources to get rated? Cheers
Maybe a silly question, but I have given 2 reviews on sources but for some rerason I can not rate or upvote them. am I doing something wrong?
you need 6 karma to vote. post some pics or something is the easiest way to get karma up.
BFG,
How much karma do I need so I can vote for a source? Where is the voting option?
Thanks!
Hi, I want to add my shop to the SRC list. I sent you several PM without any reply. Can you help me?
Hey BFG I like it bro def keeps sourcrs to not get comfy. Also I wanted to ask you I wrote a review for a source but never rated them. Seems like it wont register wen I hit the stars for score. I cant write another review cause I havent ordered anything new from them. Wut should I do?
How do you vote?
Can a mod help me,all the categories I stared are not showing up...
Yeah.. I think this system works actually. It keeps people honest. And even if you don't believe the numbers read the comments guys and you can see whats really going on. This system is of course still open to abuse and manipulation but from what I can see the MOD's do a pretty good job controlling this.
Can you rate steroids-usa for me?
hello i am new in Eroids and i would like to know how i can vote and rate the web i buy from
i received gear and i wrote already the review but do not know how to rate them
I believe you need at least 5 karma before this can be achieved
kool thanks i was wondering
Thank you for info--- so now i have to understand how is going here with karma i even do not know how i got the first one.
You don't just get Karma points in this forum, they have to be earned!! Which is one the reasons this forum is so successful and considered by most to be "the authority" concerning AAS's and acquiring them from legit sources. Try being helpful in the forums, giving cycle advice, diet, training, posting quality reviews, pics, etc. But just because you post, people aren't obligated to give karma. They are free to give it if they see fit. Asking is a sure fire way to get karma taken that's for sure. There's an immense wealth of knowledge from the eroids members. People call us meat-heads but we know our shit when it comes to gear lol. Hope you have great experience on here and I promise you'll always find answers for anything concerning the fitness world on here.. If you can't find an answer just simply post a thread and it'll get answered in better detail than you probably expected by people that have nothing to gain other than knowing they might have helped a complete stranger..
Cheers Bro
I'm definitely a meat head cause I'm not clear on who and how is giving and subtracting karma. The mods? Certain levels? I just wanted to vote for my lab (Naps). I wrote the best review I know how to write for them because they deserve it, but I guess I can't vote? I'm new to eroids but not to gear. I've been using gear consistently for about 15 years with wonderful results and no adverse health effects. It is actually a favorite subject of mine which is the reason I decided to join eroids - to share. Even on this site, some folk have some really strange ideas . . . LOL
Hey bro. Welcome to the board. I'm still kinda new as well, but you need at least 5 or 6 karma to vote. I was a little frustrated at first too. haha
I cant find genezameds.com anywhere and id like to leave a review for the can u help thanks
