Jasmin,
there is something I do not understand though. if you are going to make it very hard for them to find the forum, when they purchase these products, majority of the people who do purchase it are not going to understand how to use ammo, nor are they going to know how to look for hits.
IMO that is a very bad move for business, in the end many people who purchase it will be disappointed because they will take it spray it 5-30 times and say well now what? nothing happened? Yes I said 30 times, I have seen people at perfume counters spray themselves with perfumes 30-40 times thinking that is how they are suppose to spray perfume no joke. Meanwhile they kill everyone in a 50 foot radius LOL
How many times do we see someone purchase products and find out they have no idea how to use it, how to look for hits and it might take them a month to figure out what their ideal dosage should be?
All kidding aside I hope you plan on providing explicit detailed directions on how to use ammo? Even if it is a much less none version of ammo, if the person who bought it still thinks it is not doing anything they will not be buying it again and think it is a scam.
Otherwise I think everything you are planning on doing is great, but I don’t think ammo and pheros are that great they can sell themselves IMO, because as we all say it is 10% pheros, and 90% the person. Most people are not going to know that person just sprayed ammo and got secondary hits off of it, and neither is the person who bought it. Majority of people out there are skpetical becuase there are way too many scam artists.
I am not trying to be negative but a realist, I just do not see why you want to make it hard for people to buy it to find the forum? I know in the IT world, forums are our way of life and way of supporting users. A good IT company has a great support structure. I know this is not an IT company, but just to give an example when i first started in pheros I had no clue what I was doing and if it were not for this forum i would have thought they were a scam, and would have stopped buying them after the first time if it were not for this great forum, and it took me a while to grasp and understand them.
Believe me when I tell you we have spent many, many days and nights and the plan is amazing. That’s all I can say. There will be zero guessing.
like the NY Giants beating the Patriots in the superbowl? btw, i really really hate the Eagles. should be 4 time superbowl champs.

This forum isn’t really for people who have a mass market mindset involving pheromones. Mixing that mindset (the whole sex zombie thing that people get from the movies) with this forum only dilutes it. It’ll be a lot better here when we have only exceptional testers with remarkable acuity.
That said, I definitely do agree with you… many of these folks will need help!
The other projects will have their own forums, own stores, suport, etc. Completely separate. One exception – we will be hiring support people and such (including some writing and instruction guides) from people from this forum. Gotta get the best, you know…
As the certain few evolve out of the mass market mindset, then they can come here, I suppose… if they make the effort to look for something else. I don’t know what lengths we’ll actually need to go to hide it, but we do want at least stop advertising it. Advertising it makes it too easy to find.

So how close are you from the release?
It will be fun to see it on the shelves and say to myself “Yep, I got the good stuff”
..I can not believe after a month on here I just found this thread…
They are going to seriously have this in department stores?
Yeah just a “toned down -none down Ammo ..My question is what scent will be used? I’m assuming Game, seeing is that to get the scent customized you have to a)Be a reporting member, and or b)WIlling to pay the price diff. for n00bs.
All of which I agree with, lol..I hate to sound greedy, but this is one of the few things in my life that I dont have to share w/ alot of ppl…being in an exclusive club if you will..Kinda like being a member of AAA
” version of Ammo..My question is what scent will be used? I’m assuming Game, seeing is that to get the scent customized you have to a)Be a reporting member, and or b)WIlling to pay the price diff. for n00bs.
