If you're talking about bbcom, the forums are total garbage. All the forums are dead except misc, which is full of alt-right (not trying to offend anyone) covid denying, incel weirdos It's an absolute shell of what it used to be.

They had to put ads on the forum because the store isn't making enough money because they're losing badly to Amazon and know it won't stop. The mods don't pay any attention to the rules and just ban people who they have political disagreements with. It's really pathetic.

I have some history with them too, but my story is a little different. I'd love to tell it, but I can't expose the username I posted to over there.

Only forums i frequented back in the day were this one, Professional Muscle, and on rare occasions RX muscle. Bb.com forums always seemed like a cluster.

Dude the store is trash. They barely have any products in there. Just the latest Super Creatine Hypetrain NO2MAX Beast Mode Ice Razberry Blue flavor that the kids fall for but everyone else knows is just repackaged junk.

maybe new ownership?

when i 1st came to this forum nutraplanet was the company store and had the best overall prices/deals and customer service.

the nutraplanet black friday and new years sales were waaaay better than any of the deals offered today....those were good times. :)

The ownership of bbcom is very weird right now. It was bought some foreign guy who appears to have it registered under a shell company. Back when bbcom was popping Ryan Deluca was the owner and Liberty Media was a huge stakeholder in the company. Both of them are no longer affiliated with the site.

I frequent the Supps section occasionally, more out of muscle memory than anything. It’s basically just a certain BCAA-pushing rep, shilling, spambots and Controlled Labs & cellucor running promos to the same 10 people.

It really has become a shell of its former self. Rob’s disappeared without a trace too. Nice guy, I hope nothing bar’s happened to him.

the store might be trash for you US-facing guys but lawd almighty, the UK-facing store is atrocious, though I have picked up a couple of deals there recently and thanks to a combination of the free tub of EVL ENGN pre with every order and an error on their end, I ended up with 7 bottles of ENGN and double the amount of animal Pak & flex I’d actually ordered and then they ended up refunding the pak element of the order because of a warehouse error.

It’s an absolute clownshoes operation.

I used to read the BB forum from about 2005 until about 2015. I went back one time and the place was dead. Did interest just move on elsewhere?

I used to be on BB.COM then made the jump to Prohormoneforum.com for many years. I lurk here a bit but there doesn't seem to be the same board activity anywhere like there was a decade ago.

The downfall started when they created the new rep rules. It limited logging and companies ability to sell products on their. Sad how bad it has gotten.

I've been a member over there for a while and I still try to post honest reviews and if I can help
someone with a question I try, just like I've always done here but yes it's a shame it's not what it
use to be but honestly it's not the same anywhere anymore. AM and BB have always been my
homes where you could go to share and get supplement info when needed.

Bingo! I still get some NOW essentials (vitamins, taurine tryptophan, etc) from them. Their shipping, for me anyway, is faster than its ever been.

As far as the forum goes, I posted for 5 minutes on that forum 10+ years ago and jumped ship almost immediately. Its always been terrible IMO.

I think BB.com started to go downhill after they got rid of their Sex section and then the Pro-hormone section. I still love visiting the Misc though but most of the time it's the same old threads by lovelorn dudes with no social skills, desperate for female attention, and angry when they get none. By the way, somebody mentioned alt-right. In all fairness, you have a vocal far-left crowd as well and the two extremes often go at it in the R&P section.
