We all like improving things here, and in such we're committed to making this place better in every way possible. The other day, we did a minor upgrade to the forum (we're still working out the kinks here, but for the most part it went smoothly). For those of you don't know, you can now:
Sometime soon, we'll be doing a major upgrade on the entire site. How long until this happens? It's hard to say - it could be two weeks or two months depending on how many more snags show up, but we are close. What's this upgrade entail? Three major changes. 1. CONTENT, CONTENT, CONTENT More articles, updated continually. Thanks to the editor team (special thanks to vegetarian, Big Al and PhibbysHammer) - we have dozens of new articles lined up. All of these articles will have a professional touch, similar to the "major" websites like MensHealth.com. We also plan to come out with several articles a week, with some cool new recurring features such as "Transformational Success Stories." Featured bloggers. This is a personal favorite of mine, as it builds more transparency on the topic of PE - something that is highly needed and the main goal of this site. We currently have 4-6 experts (doctors, authors, etc.), who will write about PE and male sexual health topics on their designated "PE Gym" blog. This feature depends solely on popularity - if the experts find that you guys are commenting on their blog a lot, then they'll probably continue to post (and this will enable us to get even more experts) More exercises / step-by-step videos and instructions. We're aiming to have every exercise cataloged with a step-by-step video and exercise. We're also making it easier to find the exercise you want based on your goal/experience. 2. MORE COMMUNITY & USER FEATURES User reviews. Another favorite of mine. A major question that gets asked here is: Do products help with PE? The answer in some cases is yes. But not all products are created equally, and this leads to a major problem in the PE industry: fake reviews and no transparency on which ones are worth buying. In such, we've gone to great lengths to catalog all the penis enlargement products you guys have discussed on the forum, this way you can write honest reviews about your experience - so the next guy has a more informed decision. The benefit of this will depend solely on everyone here. The more reviews, the better. User blogs. Want to track your progress, write about topics that interest you, or just have a "You" page on the PE Gym? Now you have your very own blog to do so. This will come as a standard blog, and will get improved as time goes on. Post of the month. This is completely voted on by you guys. We've set up the reputation system in a way that it creates a "post of the month" that will be featured on the forum page. Multiple other user features. You'll now be able to comment on all articles; save your favorite articles, exercises and forums posts; and more. 3. NEW DESIGN The design we've had for the past two years isn't bad, but it has several limitations and is need of an overhaul. This isn't the first time we've done this. For fun, check out the past versions at the Way Back Machine (Make sure to use ExercisingThePenis.com, as we've made a domain change over the past 4 years too!) We plan on keeping the new design for SEVERAL more years, as this one was much more labor intensive. We've been working on the new version of site for almost a year now, and we can't even begin to describe how many hands and hours played a roll in making it happen. FUTURE IMPROVEMENTS The best news: We'll now have the backbone complete for all future updates we'll be making over the next year. We'll be making constant improvements, and our goal is to always make the forum better. Some of those improvements include: -A profile-based survey that every user can answer regarding his gains, routine, and other variables. This will be as detailed as you make it, but what we have planned is to make it so we all have access to the data and then can find the "little variables that make a BIG difference." -Forum improvements - our goal is to make the forum simpler without taking all of the neat features we have. We'll be getting your feedback on this one. -Others ways to get more information out there, enable you guys to motivate each other more, and help us get more transparency on the topic of PE in a professional manner. |

Thanks Remek, the new changes sound kickass. Can't wait to see all the new updates, but most importantly thank you so much for all that you've done. And thanks to everyone who has helped out here on the site. PEgym can't stop growing, much like our dicks!

This is truly a fantastic, informative and just plain awesome site for us men (and women). I have only ONE small gripe and that is for me to get the new posts that I haven't read yet, I have to go through the "forum" section, move over all the way to the far left and find the "new posts" category and then I can read them. Is this the way it's supposed to be?

![]() We tried to put the links in separate areas - The top menu for different sections of the community (forum, groups, profile, photos), the right two menus divided into "My Menu" and "Forum Menu." It'll make more sense once we launch the new design. I'll tell you what - we'll be doing a poll here shortly that asks what features/buttons does everyone use here. It's clear that not all features are used by every member, or even most members. For example, the "Mark Forums Read" link was in several places - at the top, at the bottom and on the side. It appears not a lot of users use the bottom link, so we might ax that. Before we do that, though, we're going to do a poll here which will help us determine the "must have" features and the unnecessary ones. I personally use the new post one, and if we find that its the most have button, we'll can add it back to the top. | |
