"Maybe you missed the memo...the items on THIS board is for people who have access to it ONLY. I posted it here to get PRO'S and EXPERT'S opinions, not hear from the peanut gallery..."

Bob, is the money that those of us from the "peanut gallery" spend on magazines, supplements, DVDs and tickets as worthless as our opinions?

Isn't peanut gallery = gym with weights?

Monster elitism.  Thanks Bob.  Make sure to stop by and throw some peanuts to us circus freaks when you get a chance.  We're hungry.

Well, last year when he dropped from the Olympia didn't seem so concerned about his fans...
There is a not so subtle distinction between words and facts.

Oh, there have been others that have dropped out before, but I bet none of them ever went on record saying they'd compete for free.

People excuse me for defending Bob, but if you read the whole thread in context, as well as his other posts there he doesn't come off as elitist.

It's the "peanut" comment that threw me off.  Not sure how that could sound better in context.

BTW...Thanks Lee for putting this out there on the regular board. If I wanted it on the gossip/ opinions board, I wouldve done it myself.

Maybe you missed the memo...the items on THIS board is for people who have access to it ONLY. I posted it here to get PRO'S and EXPERT'S opinions, not hear from the peanut gallery...


Interesting I thought  :-\

Certainly there is an explanation for this!

 CQ said that the rest of the thread vindicated Bob. I hope she's telling the truth :'(

How polite :)

Like I said guys...I am just giving my opinion on how it seems having read the whole thing. I totally understand how that sounds bad, and was just giving my perspective that he does not come across as elitist.

Wow, Lee really let the cat out of the bag.  GetBig has a VIP section for pros and experts.  No wonder there was such a big deal about the STARS.  I hear "Special Guests" have access to the VIP Board as well.  What is the criteria for getting "Special Guest" status?

Probably you consider as "true" fans only those who always agree with what you do. Fine...

True fans understand where Lee is coming from, that is why they love him.

And it is in agreement - because ideas presented are just that. When they are refined, they will be brought up. Lee - very not cool of you to do that. Discussions are meant for various boards, eventually when it was refined, it would be brought out. This may not even happen at all..


Never the less, support for the industry would of been nice.

Why can't Lee just talk about things among the fans openly. Do things have to be behind closed doors?

ahhh...the thread is back...cool...this should be a sticky.  why not get the peanut gallery involved, especially if we're the ones who are going to vote the winner....

The fans are the ones who buy the tickets.  And some of us are more level headed and business-minded than many of the asskissers you're going to get in the VIP area.

"Great Idea, Bob!  You're just super!" - 15 schmoes in there.

Why the closed doors Ron? Its the "Peanuts" that support the industry. If it weren't for the "Peanuts" do you think the "pros" would support each other? buy their DVD's, maybe they would be forced to pay for their supplements?





agree.  its funny the peanut gallery funds bb.com,  and supports the talk radio, which in turn sponser getbig.  yet were the insignificant ones.
