I see that the spam posts have views. Are people actually looking at these posts or is it the spammers themselves. Do the spammers actually gain anything, they must or they wouldn’t waste their time.

Right on! It's time for this thread to be restored and banished of all the spam crap. The Bodybuilding forums is my (as well as many others on here) main source for workout equipment talk, reviews, etc...I recently joined Reddit (not to replace the BB forums, but to see what it's about upon reading some posts here and there and contributing a bit).
As long as it's up and running I'll always post here as the first resource for new equipment, info, reviews, etc. Next up on the list of new things the Rogue Manta Ray Bench with leg hold attachment (coming soon to my home gym) the Powertec leg press (if anyone is interested) and another piece of equipment that I'll reveal soon as well...Last edited by Deep-Voiced-One; 08-03-2023 at 09:30 AM.

Hello
Amidst the chaos of social media and discord's negative impact, the Bodybuilding forums stand out as a reliable source. They've been around longer and offer a wealth of valuable insights, experiences, and reviews from the community. It's disheartening to witness spam taking over. Let's unite to preserve the bodybuilding.com forums. Count me in to support this cause!
Best Regard

Sure was a shame. Been here for a long while and built my whole gym from basics to done. Lots of super knowledgeable people on equipment and lifting in general. If I'm considering something I always google this forum or search it.
Tried a few other places when it was crapped out most bordered between "not impressive" and "crap filled with fools that have zero real knowledge or experience".▪█─────█▪ Rogue Barbell Crew #27 ▪█─────█▪

Haven't been able to "rep" many of you for a year or more...not for lack of trying.

First time back in years. A lot more spam than I remember, lol. I'm a mod on a different forum and it can definitely be tough to manage at times. Glad to be back here though, online forums have always been much more appealing to me for many reasons. I despise FB groups.
Can't wait to post an updated pic of my basement setup in the new house.▇ ▅ █ ▅ ▇ ▂ ▃ ▁ ▁ ▅ ▃ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▇

Welcome back. I should probably update as my current doesn't include the FT or some sales I did.
For what it's worth the spam is currently WAY better than it was. It would be a full page of spam and only a single thread during later covid period. Killed off 90% of this forum which as you know was probably the premier equipment forum on the net. Improvement is leaps and bound better but still shows up, though amount is at least managable and doesn't totally overwhelm the place. Lots of guys never came back after a year or so of it being destroyed though.▪█─────█▪ Rogue Barbell Crew #27 ▪█─────█▪

Yes the spam is much better. I agree this was the premier equipment forum on the internet. No one really hawking their wares (aside from Sherm), getting kickbacks, or overall having an agenda. Just people who used, bought, and sold gym equipment helping others. There was, and still is a lot of knowledge here. I learned a lot and owe much of my home gym decisions to the users here, you just need to be willing to listen. I don't think anyone has needed to be talked out of buying a Bowflex for a few years now.

Yup - whole first page. Indian escorts...is there even anyone from India in this damn subforum? They are stupid as hell if their goal was anything other than ruining this place. Then again most sites seem to be protected against this much better so some blame lies with forum owners for sure. Not a suddenly new problem and mods removing it is not a good sustainable answer.
