The Gossip and Opinions board has gone to drivel IMO. :(
All these mega-fago "Squad" shit is boring and unfunny. :-\
Anyone else feel like it's turning into one big fag fest in there or is it just me? ???

A lot of members are quite conventional in their opinions, really don't think out of the box or appreciate anything outside of their rigid views despite the open nature of the forums. Basically there's an increasing no. of skinhead/red neck types.

It has changed alot.

For those who don't know, would be helpful to hear what has changed.

Have you seen this (http://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=102189.0;attach=113447;image)

What you referred to with the change in the profile of a typical poster. Increase in the gimmick accounts. You can not tell who is real and who is a gimmick these days.
The main board is used for owning's and trolling exclusively. Pros do not come around much.

hahaha...
I'll be photoshopping my face to his body and emailing it straight to my father!
For those who don't know, would be helpful to hear what has changed.
You're joking? What about all these "Squad" fags and posts along the lines of "Another colossal gym owning" etc...
It's a fucking bore now.

yeah i agree. the main board used to be a lot more entertaining

02-04 was great.

They are the main reason why the board is going in the shitter and this is why I say ban these idiots, all they do is try start they're crap, very few no anything about training therefore they have nothing to contribute.......thats okay, because their demise is in the works!!

It’s sad what’s happened. The antics and personalities of the Alternative Boards (X, Y, V) have bled onto the main Gossip board and become mainstays. What should be private messages/fights are posted publicly back and forth and participants carry on as if others care to read their tits for tats. We don’t.
The board has become far more mean spirited and personal. Accordingly, the pros have left in droves and actual talk of serious (or even not so serious) body building is being eclipsed. This board is definitely not what it used to be. :'(

It IS a bore, but i don't go back far enough on GB to remember anything but this tired crap.

Well, since I'm the one pushing for it, it's no story, the first one to go will be "The Squadfather", sarcasm's already gone, but came back as "The Squadfather", he'll be gone soon....again!

Emailed Coleman; he said exactly this as reason not to bother with getbig. I'm serious.
I wouldn't want to impinge much on the freedoms GB allows, but:
Any ideas on how to maintain most of the freedom of speech while bringing back what was or something similar?

I think Ron should institute a probabtionary period for new accounts so that all the trolling and gimick accounts might fade away.
If i had it my way, i would:
* Limit the daily posts of new members until they have proven themselves to be real people.
* Have certain discussion(s) off limits to new members
* Hazing, Hazing, Hazing!
* start up a premium membership account for 5 or ten dollars a year for those of us who wish to do away with the crap. Then we could have a "premium" member only board and actually debate things of a bodybuilding nature.
* Have a written test for new members to see if they are worthy.
I know all this would be a lot of work for the mods, but cmon... there are enough people here who actually care about this place and would like to see it back to the old days.
Things we've had to endure lately:
Klaus
TA / DA fiasco
The Mr. Get Big fallout
Mowernation
Goodrum
And the bad part is that some of it is directly related to bodybuilding. I think some people bring things upon themselves... but for the most part, much of it can be attributed to trolling and gimmick accounts.
I for one would be willing to take on a workload of grading and scoring new members tests (i think a commitee of moderators and established members could be established to do approve or disapprove members) to ensure that a higher level of discussion ensues. I am all down for ownings and wild debates and groups of friends as long as it doesn't interfere with the main idea behind the board. I also think that people definetely have the ability to redeem themselves as well. there was a time when a lot of people did not like 240 and the fiasco surrounding him, but in my opinion he is one of our most valuable members. These are all just ideas, but maybe some of them should be implemented?
That being said, i still think that Ron & co do a great job with this forum and it has stuck around for quite sometime now so they are obviously doing something right.

The most ironic part of your little cry baby bullshit is the fact you didn't have a problem with the SQUAD until we called you out on your obviously bullshit bench claim. So now, like the little child you are, you're upset about the fact that not everyone is bowing down to you for making a bullshit world record claim. Hope this helps. Douche. ::)
-

I believe it....again, it's the "Squad" I've said it a million times, the Mods need to realize this but they just seem to let it go!

The funny thing is that we generate more traffic for this site than you and the rest of the cry babies.

f**k you.......you'll be the second to go you little bastard >:(!!
You're welcome to try. Sorry that you have that much of a grudge against us for proving your world record bench claim to be complete and utter bullshit. Get over it or provide some proof you lying sack of shit. What a crybaby.
Yeah, you bring more assholes with you and drive away the legit people!
Traffic is traffic is traffic. Hope this helps.

I think it will all sort it out itself.
Nobody wants a fcuking Fascist Board with no freedom of speech.
So I believe that everyone will get their own shit straight.
And it will all be cool again.
For about another.... 4 months. 8)

Some truth to that; ironic but some small degree of control might facilitate a higher quality of freedom of speech.

I agree!
-
I don't believe in that.
The more freedom, the more people will put a leash on themselves. Look on this board, it works fine. Those who used to start lots of threads (too many, at times) have self-moderated.
Why? Because it makes the board a fcuking kickass board, and that's what everyone wants.

They already delete and move enough threads as it is. Stop crying.

Then secure ALL of the bullshit to another board like the V board and block the idiots from the other boards, it would be different if they had something legit to contribute but they don't, it's bashing and bantering...they literally have nothing to contribute!

The MODS have drastically censored everyone's post. The SQUAD needs to take over and overthrow the hideous monsters called the MODS. Then once again the GETBIG empire will belong to the people of GETBIG and not the concentration camp of censory.

All in good time my young Padawan. Our take over will be swift and no mercy will be shown to those who oppose. The blitzkrieg will be unstoppable!!!!

I think King threatening to sue anyone who dissed him was what caused teh recent advent of gimmicks. I know the true identity of a few of the more outgoing gimmicks, and it's all the same - they didn't want the headaches of people 'outing' them and wasting their time with frivolous lawsuits.
Also, any kind of creativity like you used to see back in the day... well, nowadays that person would call Ron and the poster would be in timeout. Remember how I used to make fake websites and animated gifs dissing people? I'd be banned in 5 minutes now. This stifles creativity greatly. When goatboy got timeoutted for calling someone fat lol... I mean, was he WRONG in his observation?
Monday nights. 11 PM - 12 AM, EST. Guest Feature Hour. Let it be said what needs to be said. And watch the numbers skyrocket for that hour ;)
-
But gimmicks were popular before King's episode.

I offer legit advice about training, rehab, nutrition etc something you and most of the "Squad" no nothing about, to people who want and need it, at this point I can really give a shit if people believe my lifts or not!

Monday nights. 11 PM - 12 AM, EST. Guest Feature Hour.

I asked Ron last year to please give us the guest feature back for 24 hours on April 1. He said he'd think about it. But.... he thought.....no :(

Superb example of getbig's new brand of ongoing personal stalking trolling. :-\ This Berzerk seems attached to him at the hip, in fact i don't see comments other than those involving the object of obsession. :-X
-
Personally I'm sick of all this "Squad" bullshit - I spend more time on General Topics these days because the G & O section is becoming like a school playground.
I can have a laugh with anyone but when it evolves into a personal slanging match containing nothing more than online bullying then it starts to get a bit tiring. Ron should do something about these idiots who seem to enjoy being part of this "Squad" as they call it. They pollute our board with their hating, insecurity and jealousy and take up bandwidth. Save it for the V board guys - I never post there anyway because I refuse to stoop to their level.

LOL...I've got one of these little bastards posting as me on the MD boards trying to ruin that board too, my guess it's that one of these little pussys like Berserker, The Squadfather or BerserkFury, I think their a upset because I'm in the process of getting their troll stalking asses banned from here!

Sorry if you think I messed up your board. It certainly messed up my life.

I hadn't a clue what a troll or a gimmick was and then I find myself in the middle of a full-on meltdown...
Perhaps you're complaining about it because you haven't seen a proper meltdown since. I took the biscuit.
