It seems to me that a lot of the board has become a place of juvenille, smear attacks and retarded back and forth pissing contests. Sadly, poor Ron , Issac and Chic can't really do much to weed out of this idiocracy. Get Big could be a great BODYBUILDING fan site and we need not be like the ladies garden club.
Funny , witty and clever is GREAT.
Dumb , shallow and without merit is a bore.I suspect some here are so clueless they will think me the A-hole here, which is fine. Good luck , I will be back from time to time to keep up with the sports latest, but find many of threads pretty lame and useless here now.
-
oh, please don't go ::)
-
Howie, I disagree about "can't really do much to weed out of this idiocracy"... plenty could be done. I told you before I respect you and admire your great sense of humor and am now kissing your ass officially. Makes it even more sad to see a positive guy like you coming to this conclusion.
-
This board here has a extremely delicate balance, police it too hard and it will go down the same road as the getbig board.
It's extremly hard for Ron and Co. to find the right balance at getbig I suspect.
One thing that i have briefly seen on bb.com is that people put a *Serious* quote in their Thread header, the rule here is that Only serious replies are allowed.
And Alex that was a cheap shot, promoting your board in here ::)

You should try http://bignationradio.com/smf/index.php as an alternative; only a week old but show plenty of potential.
I have been over to your site and think it has promise. the thing is I really like Ron and have huge respect for what he has done. Thanks for the positive words , but the vast majority here are just way too negative and it ceases to fun when it is chlidish and dumb.Most of the posts are senseless bashing, reminds me of a Jr HS class
-
In facto what you are doing Alex is to use this golden opportunity where Ron and Getbig is furn able to get people to "move" over to "your" board, that's quite cheap and I in fact I cannot believe you were doing so.
I love what Jason have build up so far, I'm a member on big nation as well, but I think this was extremely cheap, you basically stabbed Ron in the back here.
Well done big guy.

Here we go... calm down sweetie. I'm now officially the Getbig antiChrist. Wait, Ron's Jewish so doesn't make any sense. I wish I could lay it out to you in german living in Dublin but fact is we never intended to compete; more of an extension. We've also raised the shit spam issue to Ron many times but nothing gets done. Pretty much every person of interest has stopped posting on here.
It's a pattern on the web; a good subject specific forum with a a very libreal approach gets highjacked by clowns who makes it their little battleground.
If getbig has jumped the shark, be it. There has to be a sucessor.

First of no need for German I understand you perfectly well you know that, next thing what do you mean with "here we go?" I wasn't bashing you, I simply think this wasn't fair to Ron and believe me I'm not the once sending you pm's calling you traitors, THAT is childish.
Got to go to work, but I'm very interested in your reply.
But there is a time and a place for advertisement especially when you are talking about direct competition here,
-
Getbig's the only forum worth reading and it's just as good as it's ever been. Howie, if we ban all the gimmicks and trolls and what not, this place is going to suck. When it's contest season, lots of threads on bodybuilding crop up. When it's in between, people BS about other things just for a laugh.
And Alex, releasing members' IP addresses isn't cool for a website's admin to do. That leads me to believe you also check out people's PMs in the database, since you obviously have no respect for privacy. Good luck getting people to believe you guys run a legit board which is all positive - there's just as much bashing in your board as there is in Getbig.

Those are pretty strong accusations junior. Can you back this out? We have no access to the DB brother. An interesting coming from the guy who begged to mod a board over there. Your name is still listed as a mod...
We do know how much emotions you put into those PMs.. what makes you think they (Isaac, 240, chick & others) don't you think they read it on here?

I was talking about your thread in the Y where you posted Mars' IP address. And No, I never asked to be made mod or anything. I don't even mod the V anymore. I was asked to sign up and so I did cause I know all you mofos, that's all.

Here, I was talking about this
http://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?topic=202092.msg2782516#msg2782516 (http://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?topic=202092.msg2782516#msg2782516)
And I agree about my accusation of breach of privacy being baseless - if you got Mars' IP addy through some other means from Getbig, then I'll take back what I said about BigNation's privacy policy. No big deal either way cause no one cares

You don't need to "scan" the db to get the IP address, Ron would be stupid to give anybody apart from himself access to the db, Alex has most likly no access to the db, but there is maybe an option for mods to see the IP address under peoples posts, I know you can do that with vbulletin, it's simply an option.
Sof if Mars has been posting in one of the boards Alex is modding and the option is on, he could have seen the IP like that, and traced it simply with an IP tracer.
Come to think, there is actually no way why the db should "store" or output the ip address of a user, the db stores the users nick and other settings but not the IP address
-
Oh, Alex is gonna "crowbar" his site in every second that he gets a chance too.

Alex doesn't mod any board here and the mods here can't see someone's IP addy - I'm a mod myself. Only admins can. Which is why I thought Alex might have gotten Mars' IP when he posted in big nation (assuming Mars posted there).

Oh I though he was mod of one of these Z Y C boards or what ever, but seriously mate, if he is not a Mod he has obvioulsy no access to the db, any Board/Page Admin would only give his SubAdmin access to the db.
But there are a lot of other ways to get an ip address as well.

He was modding the Y for a while, but got de-modded cause he was promoting BigNation here in Getbig. And Yeah, I realize mods don't have access to the database man ;D - like I said, I'm a mod here myself!
-
You are in the "gossip & opinions" section. My opinion is current pro bodybuilding is a god damn joke. Bodybuilding on a personal level is one of the greatest pursuits to me. If you can't handle that or others opinions....leave. Getbig would really suck if you had it your way.
um...he isnt talking about what you think about bodybuilding, he is refeering to the fact that every second thread here is seemingly hating or negative on bodybuilding in some way. It amazes me how many people here have 1000+ posts yet appear to hate bodybuilding.

True that. I can understand bashing specific individuals who have done something disgusting or unacceptable, but a lot of the peeps here just bash bodybuilding in general and everything it entails :-\

For the most part i just ignore it, but its things like the people who go through an entire post and highlight the word "athlete" or "sport" and rolleyes and say oh brother...
I don't know, just get sick of it after a while.

I think everybody here has some form of love for bodybuilding, but I also think that a lot are disgusted at what they see "their" sport turn into.
And they air their concerns, that doesn't mean automatically that they hate Bodybuilding quite the difference somebody who criticises should be valued.
-
I think you're taking things a bit too seriously mate. Chillax.
Now go out and do something nice fr yerself.

It has always been irreverent and comically negative here. It's part of what gives GB its charm (and I've been on here or browsing since its inception).
The one thing that does bother me is that it appears that the board has lost a lot of members over the years. The G & O section used to be a hive of activity with threads constantly being started and bumped..nowadays you can check back after a few hours and only a handful of replies will have been posted.
I am not sure what caused this..it is not the negativity because that has always been there and out of it has come some of the funniest moments in GB's history.
I don't know what happened but at some point a lot of guys left, or newbies got ran off, something! I don't know because my real life was kinda great back then :D
Something happened to change the G&O..maybe they started moving more threads to different boards, more modding, less things allowed to stay up?

Well, Howie, you and a few others are known individuals. They are rare on this flotsam site. Goatboy and other cowards are free to say what they like and take no responsibility for what they post. The known posters are easy targets. It is the opposite of being a level playing field.
It all depends what we want from this community and why we post here. All that anonymous posturing is rather pointless. I enjoy humour but not witless insults.
This post already exceeds the comprehension ability of 80% who post here!
-
Howie and Vince, I think that I should point out that you are posting in the "gossip & opinion" board. Which be definition gives a lot of latitude to the range of topics.
why not post on the other more focused and serious parts of the getbig?
and yes I agree that the "g&o" has turned into a high school cafeteria

There's plenty of us who sling shit even after having posted names, pictures and other personal info. Having a few anonymous posters like Bluto and Goatboy who are pretty funny, is cool and keeps the mix interesting. This place would suck if trolls, both known and unknown, were banned or discouraged from posting.

actually I find it funny you post on this thread as you are one of the main people who floods the board with shitty attention seeking crap.
does it make up for having no life?
-
synthol. no leggs.
-
Getbig is the shit!!!
sure there are some tits wandering around here but we have our resident sharks who tear into them and make them look like silly kids.
Thats the great part of Getbig, Ron is pretty liberal to letting people put other annoying members like Team Nasser in their place.
Plus with the sheer diversity and number of posters on here, it guarantees the place evolves and changes constantly.

It seems to me that a lot of the board has become a place of juvenille, smear attacks and retarded back and forth pissing contests. Sadly, poor Ron , Issac and Chic can't really do much to weed out of this idiocracy. Get Big could be a great BODYBUILDING fan site and we need not be like the ladies garden club.
Funny , witty and clever is GREAT.
Dumb , shallow and without merit is a bore.I suspect some here are so clueless they will think me the A-hole here, which is fine. Good luck , I will be back from time to time to keep up with the sports latest, but find many of threads pretty lame and useless here now.
you're starting to sound like "Mr. Intenseone" aka "The Coach" aka "Joe Local" now, Howie. ::)

You make threads like this every couple of months. Just leave if you don't like it.

The majority of the people who post on this site are actually fairly smart
I think the general average IQ of getbig is higher than most think
Their are also some of the most witty and clever people on the internet here

He was talking around Xmas about how his old lady makes a point of farting in his face and makes him smell it and guess what she ate for dinner(no I am not making this up). Only a bitch of a "man" would put up with a foul woman like that, no wonder he is whiny on here.

Howie you're def right and like many I always enjoy humor and owning (if done right) but these days it just seems like there is nobody to keep these dicks in line, sad to say but we need the Squad back and all those other groups. It's like everybody and their pet goldfish has a gimmick but they aren't the great ones from years past.
Oh and you are the A-Hole on here, I thought you knew :-\
-
I think there are too many subboards...
Yes, I hate having to check 487 boards to stay up to date. Mods need to grow balls and not be afraid to come down on new guys who are abusing the freedoms here so those who have been loyal to the site for years aren't driven away.
-
oh brother.... ::)
HAHAHAHAHA exactly it's funny when the vets do it but when you have hundreds of new guys basically copying old material it gets old and take the funny out of it.
-
It only cost Howie 2 cents for his thoughts but it cost me 5 minutes outta my life reading this thread >:(
-
Everybody with their "good ole days of getbig past" stories... It's a shame to see a great section such as Gossip & Opinions being filled up with a bunch of crybabies :'( now. Take it to Positive bodybuilding talk.

It wasn't always postive and never will be but it used to have more to it, now it's just a but of copy cats regurgatating old material and trying to claim it as their own. Also there is a lot of douches who try to hard to be "cool" on here and it just makes for annoying posters.

To me your post come to the heart of the matter . It is a lot more than some wiseass , lame humor or some negative posts. I never really get too upset about that. It is a matter of the "critical mass" of useless trivial , pissing contest threads that gratly outnumber any really funny or actual bodybuilding threads.
It reminds we of a bunch of high school kids that make fun of other people . Unless you are deeply involved with their lives you just don't "get it".
Thanks Vince B, for the kind words, but really this is no big deal on any personal level for me.I was merely pointing out some issues on the direction and current atmosphere of this board.
I will be back as always , but not get involved in many of the threads. Most are a bore, not funny and of no intertest to me. No more, no less.
I am will enjoy Pro BB radio and meeting folks at shows, etc.

Instead of making general statement about what sucks and what doesn't, post up some specific examples, names of posters, etc......if that includes me then so be it.
-
Separation anxiety? Co-dependency issues?
No, it is more a case of pathetic middle aged loser with no life and only has his dogs for company.
I admit it at least.
I ne v er said I was never posting here again or melting down. I was simply pointing out the subtle change in atmosphere here at GET BIG. No biggy.
Ok to be be specific, that recent back and forth thread about Mr fake pecs. I mean one thread was funny with a couple pics, but they way some went on and on you would have thought it was his ex gf that posted or he shot someones dog....geeeeeeeeeeeeeesh .
Overall, what bugs me is not just negative or retarded crap as I have been guilty of that myself.
It is these obscure, very detailed and specific soap operas between guys. This "he said/he said" crap over events I am mostly clueless about and they seem pretty trivial and petty.
-
It only cost Howie 2 cents for his thoughts but it cost me 5 minutes outta my life reading this thread >:(
Now THAT was funny and vintage get big. Ya want to learn how to crack on somebody, this is it.

I’ve been visiting the getbig forums since before it had this yellow format… back when it had white background and the threaded message format (anyone else remember that?). The board has really gone down hill in the last year or two. I thought the Alternative Boards would give the kids and haters a playpen to keep them happy but it hasn’t. The threads worth reading here are becoming fewer and farther between. :-[

BUMP FOR THE NATION!!!
You should try http://bignationradio.com/smf/index.php as an alternative; only a week old but show plenty of potential.

Yes, sad but true. I got here during the middle of the golden age right before the population here started growing out of control. It was def a much funnier and controlled then now. The other boards were nice at first but now there is way to many and a lot of subjects get moved before anyone can even see him. I now scroll through G&O and there may be at most 4-5 threads worth reading.

Some of those threads should have never been on the Gossip board to begin with and it's a lot of work, I think, for the Mods to keep moving some of these USELESS threads to the appropriate Board.

Yeah, that pretty much sums it up. Endless replys to the fake pecs guy thing is exactly the kind of obscure "inside jokes" is what I am talking about. Most of it is pretty much a bore. I am not mad just disapointed is all.

there's a reason a lot of us don't post like we used to, although it's funny how many "legends" (much as i hate that term) i talk to off the boards and we all kind of agree that GB as a whole has gotten eaten up by the "owning" mentality.
really, the negativity is just stifling here. people are leary of posting pictures or saying something mildly against the crowd because there's a cabal of people who will go absolutely apeshit and next thing you know they can't post anywhere without getting flamed to hell and back.
even milos, chick, and shawn, who normally leap into the fray, have been AWOL. pros won't post here and we can't get any industry people to hang around because the environment is just retardedly toxic. i pop in periodically to see what's up and update my training log, but dammit it just ain't fun any more.
cue "meltdown", "oh brother", "calm down, gloria", "settle down, tiger", "it ain't that serious", etc.

really, the negativity is just stifling here. people are leary of posting pictures or saying something mildly against the crowd because there's a cabal of people who will go absolutely apeshit and next thing you know they can't post anywhere without getting flamed to hell and back.
even milos, chick, and shawn, who normally leap into the fray, have been AWOL. pros won't post here and we can't get any industry people to hang around because the environment is just retardedly toxic. i pop in periodically to see what's up and update my training log, but dammit it just ain't fun any more.
cue "meltdown", "oh brother", "calm down, gloria", "settle down, tiger", "it ain't that serious", etc.
Exactly I have spent more time on here the past two days talking about this topic then I have everything else in the past 3 months. It's not as bad when something is said in a thread and left there but the douche bags now a days stalk people from thread to thread and keep it going non stop until either the person leaves or Ron has to put someone in timeout which hasn't been happening at all that I know of lately. Speaking about that anyway WTF Ron you havn't been enforcing any of the rules around here and things are getting worse then ever, why aren't you attempting to do anything about this?

I think you're taking things a bit too seriously mate. Chillax.
Now go out and do something nice fr yerself.
Chillax. I like that.

In a nutshell the former Squad and posters of the Y have ruined Getbig, chased off the pros, experts and new folks that just wanna talk about bodybuilding in a stimulating, fun way. The owning tone has ruined a once great bb resource. There's no freedom to post pics as people get so horrendously flamed that they have no choice but to leave Getbig altogether. In essence, if the former Squad and current Y board members were punished for their actions and/or forced off the board altogether the environment would once again become healthy and inviting for fun and stimulating conversations while still including just a touch of owning thrown in for good measure, correct? Basically, everyone wants it to be 2005-2006 again on Getbig where things were fresh and new and everyone was equal. No cliques, no clubs, no squads, no cool kids, no mock frats....none of that stuff basically. Just want a casual environment in which grown adults and young kids alike can talk about their bb heroes, bb contests, diets, drugs, training and life in general while sharing pics of their development in a positive way that encourages people to want to continue posting on Getbig and draw others back to the board to reaffirm why we joined this board in the first place.

When the groups first started it wasn't so bad, some of their threads were very comical but after a while it was starting to get a little too much and all the newbs were trying to "get in" and be accepted by them. That's when it went downhill, everyone that wasn't an immature dick wad was pretty much driven away and all the immature dick wads stayed around and made this place a shithole. It's rare I meet anyone whose new that's worth talking to these days, I mostly only chat with guys I have been cool with for a year or more lately.

So, what do you suggest to change it? Cause I'm very much a part of that group that has ruined things for everyone.....should I be banned, my account deleted and forced to start over with a clean slate?

All the orignal Squad guys have seemed to get over that phase and moved on (but you guys still strike comedic gold at times) but it's the newer guys youv'e influenced to come here and be douchebags that's the main problem. They still think it's cool to gang rape members over mundain things and take it too far with the stalking and nonstop bashing of other guys. It's like when the Soviet Union disbanded and left all those countries to fend for themselves with no organization or structure and then most of them became complete assholes.

Certain people also litter the G&O forum with shit completely unrelated to bodybuilding. Sure it's okay to post something unrelated once in a while, but there are members constantly posting stupid shit that's totally unrelated to bodybuilding. And as others pointed out, there's also a huge tone of bitterness from certain posters. The former members of the Squad have toned down their posts, and most of them are actually very good posters. However, now there's these jealous anti-steroid types, youtube video posters, police brutality investigators and a bunch of other morons. They post shit off of the top of their head and put hardly any creativity into their topics or posts. They don't understand punchlines, nor sarcasm, and are generally too dumb to engage in any sort of debates without petty insults.
Despite all that, this is still a great place. I wont be pulling a Coach, and neither should you guys. :)

There are people posting in this thread who I never respond to. I don't have to interact with dickheads.
Ironically, this isn't one of the crap threads on Getbig so what does Howie think about that?
I chose Getbig to debate a serious training theory. I chose this forum and not the training one. It went for over 20 pages which wasn't bad but in the end it was a total waste of my time.
I chose this forum to show the world my biceps supinator machine. It is the only one in a gym on this planet. Predictably, many bagged me so I ended up removing all those photos and seldom post anything from my gym. I definitely won't post any images of my family on Getbig. The way some target an ex or family is just plain appalling. No one would say that shit to my face. But some come on this forum and think they can say anything they like. Most of these cowards are anonymous and have to stay that way.
That we have a resident netstalker in Goatboy reminds me of the grumpy troll who used to live in the garbage can on Sesame Street. I watched that show when my kids were growing up. This forum would be better if everyone were known and not hiding behind gimmick accounts. I mean, where in the heck do all these 'new' identities come from?

You never respond to me but even though I have insulted you and crap I have also said goods things about you outside of the "Lack of willpower" thread. One thing I never did is get into your personal life or take it above any level that most on here would find absurd yet you still ignore me all the time whenever I respond to something you have written. Why is this?
-
Where are all the pros? Lee Priest gone. Milos mostly gone. Shawn on MD. No one is his right mind would post regularly on Getbig. Chick is a poor example of how pros should behave on Getbig. He attacks and insults everyone who doesn't agree with him. Anoint him as athletes rep.
Why on earth should attacking fat people be allowed on an internet discussion board? Ron is allowing some very ugly stuff here by not removing that shameful stuff. Just because some people are fat doesn't mean it is acceptable to bag them. I don't see that shit as being amusing. Bodybuilders should never bag how anyone else looks.
Just about every interesting threads ends up with insults being exchanged by various combatants.
I take my hat off to Melvin Goodrum. He posts as himself and debates with everyone. He is gay and is still posting here. Either the guy has no shame or he has a lot of nerve. We all remember how he bagged Derek Anthony for what he did on line.
-
I like all the stupid, childish shit, sorry guys. :-\
Now Lightweight4Life on the other hand...it's scum like that that clog Ron's servers. they should get teh DELETE.

Ya know Vince I think it stems from older guys like us thinking that you post on a forum , the same as you would talk in person. Many of the young bucs like having the fake names and crazy avatars, etc
Here is my impression(s):
1. Most of the really negative posetrs arenot really into serious bodybuilding, but casual fans.Young guys that admire strength and power, so they follow MMA and WWE pro wrasslin' along with bodybuilding.
2. Since they have no real intersted in actual, serious bodybuilding, they start crap to amuse themselves and those that think like them. Reminds me of when a student cuts up in my science class, gets bored and not mature enough to control themselves.
3. I bet most of these naysayers would walk around all wide eyed at a real expo like the ASC or Olympia.
Can you imagine how different they would act training with either of us or guys like us in an actual gym.
I sincerely think they would have a lot of respect for you Vince if they ever had trained with you when you were MR Canada ya know.
I would love to see that unique bicep machine again myself, thanks.
4. In the end we can't let the morons win with plenty of good guys like you still posting here.
The only practical solution is to finally IGNORE 99% of the nut jobs and kiddys.

Maybe he wouldn't snap at people if they didn't constantly accuse him of being part of a big BBing conspiracy and basically tell him he's a no good piece of shit lier who doesn't give a rat ass about bbers when he's been one for 3/4 of his life and fought longer and harder then most to get where he is at today in the industry. I don't know but I think Bob is a stand up guy and a honest one at that, it seems the minority of pro's don't like him (mostly guys who never touch the top 10) and not the top guys who actually carry the industry and make it what it is. It's like when guys attack Gene Upshaw when he's probably the best thing going for the NFL players union. Oh and BTW from what I have read Gene is a great man and someone everyone should aspire to be more like. So basically I don't knock Bob for being a dick to guys like you and others who slam him for no good reason and with no solid proof of any of your accusations.

i don't give a shit what anyone says about me 'brownnosing" or whatever but i have to say that Bob has one of the most underrated, underappreciated physiques in bodybuilding in the last 25-30 years, height, width, shoulders, quad sweep, back width and detail, he had it all.

Basile and other older guys around here would meet nothing but a respectful young man if I met them in person. I wouldn't debate or respond to guys if I didn't like them or thought they were shitbags, I would love to meet Basile and try out his machines and some training techniques but I don't feel like talking about it with him online I come here for fun and pro BBing talk not to hear about nutrition, training or any of that nonsense. Onlyme is someone I would like to meet in the future and have spoken to him about it before because I am looking to move somewhere far away within the next year or so and I know he's got the connects and he's cool enough to other his help to me. You seem like a fun guy to go out to the bar with and get a little shitty but also someone who can engage in a serious conversation.

It really shows when he's doing interviews, dwarfs everyone except Jay Cutler and Ronnie Coleman and makes most look about as narrow as Laura Flynn Boyle .
Oh and he can actual pose which is a fading art.

Honestly, Ron's board has changed a little since he started allowing sponsors on the frontpage, but, Ron's still a good guy and as long as he's a good guy I'll still post. Even if his friend Isaac calls me a "dick".

Did you say something you FAT FUCK. Isn't it time for another feeding. Punching you in your FAT fucking face would bring me joy. You are the scum that is reaking up getbig. Everyone here knows your gimmick. You must have been the fat kid everyone spit on when you were little so you come to getbig to try to make yourself feel better at this point in your miserable life. I can't imagine a girl wanting to be with you, your family probably sees you as a failure obviously no one in real life not these internet warriors here would want to be friends with a fat fuckin slob who posts shit on getbig 12 hours a day. You are a miserable worthless piece of trailer trash. You should go directly the the bathroom find some razors and slit your fat fuckin wrists because you are doing this world a diservice by being alive you FAT FUCKING PIECE OF WORTHLESS SHIT.

It seems to me that a lot of the board has become a place of juvenille, smear attacks and retarded back and forth pissing contests. Sadly, poor Ron , Issac and Chic can't really do much to weed out of this idiocracy. Get Big could be a great BODYBUILDING fan site and we need not be like the ladies garden club.
Funny , witty and clever is GREAT.
Dumb , shallow and without merit is a bore.I suspect some here are so clueless they will think me the A-hole here, which is fine. Good luck , I will be back from time to time to keep up with the sports latest, but find many of threads pretty lame and useless here now.
isn't that what getbig is for? juvenile smear attacks and pissing contests? (juvenile has only one l)
i just realized there was a "positive bodybuilding discussion board" on here... damn...

nailed it in one.
the problem is that it's impossible to post here because of the flaming. take candidate for example. i don't like the kid, i think he's an idiot. however, he gets bombarded with that old picture of him on a dirtbike in just about every thread he posts in. we're at a stage where you have to be even careful about showing before and after shots because people will harangue you with a picture from 2002 before you started working out.
or the "exposures". panda, you know i like ya and all, but i don't think that's particularly cool. consider this: getbig is indexed by google. when you repeatedly post someone's real name (and ESPECIALLY where they live), a future employer or whoever could google their name and find them on here, which many people don't want. don't believe me? i googled "john stromm" (http://www.google.com/search?q=%22john+stromm%22&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:unofficial&client=firefox-a) and the first two results were getbig posts, from you no less.
there's that joke going around now of "everyone on getbig is a millionaire that looks better than dennis wolf". you know why? because any time someone admits to being anything other than that, it gets used to flame them into oblivion. if someone gets into an argument about something and they have a pic up, but they don't look great, then every time they post someone's going to respond by putting up that picture.
and then there's the racism. i've said it to a lot of the regulars in private but i'll say it here now: the racism has made the Y completely fucking intolerable and it's bleeding up here, too. it's not even funny, it's just absurd. someone gets into an argument and suddenly there's "well i'm a white man so i win, sandnigger" or something similar. it's ri-goddamn-diculous and it's why i stopped posting there except i think once in the past few weeks.
to answer MOS: no bannings for most of you guys, but i think time outs and such should be handed out a little more liberally. there's a line to draw between over-censorship and letting the inmates run the asylum and lately it feels like getbig is dancing on the wrong side of it.

Did you say something you FAT FUCK. Isn't it time for another feeding. Punching you in your FAT fucking face would bring me joy. You are the scum that is reaking up getbig. Everyone here knows your gimmick. You must have been the fat kid everyone spit on when you were little so you come to getbig to try to make yourself feel better at this point in your miserable life. I can't imagine a girl wanting to be with you, your family probably sees you as a failure obviously no one in real life not these internet warriors here would want to be friends with a fat fuckin slob who posts shit on getbig 12 hours a day. You are a miserable worthless piece of trailer trash. You should go directly the the bathroom find some razors and slit your fat fuckin wrists because you are doing this world a diservice by being alive you FAT FUCKING PIECE OF WORTHLESS SHIT.

When I was a PE teacher we occasionally played dodgeball. You know the game with those small rubber balls. The rule was if you were hit below the waist you were out. Well, Getbig reminds me of how some played that game at one high school I taught at. Instead of throwing the balls at the opponents some lunatics would hurl them at heads of unpopular guys.
If Ron doesn't have more guidelines then it becomes open slather. I think Howie and others have regretted posting personal stuff about girlfriends, etc., here. The way many comment on women is so crass it is embarrassing to all men.
If some thread is an embarrassment to Getbig then it should be locked or deleted. That way the lads soon know what they can't say and that should be the bottom line. The moderators have been fair when it comes to really objectionable personal insults about people not on the forum so I salute them.
I am still waiting for the vile thread on fat people lacking will power to be deleted. That silly debate about Dorian vs Ron should have been locked and left locked. No newcomer could read that many pages. In other words, if things become unreasonable then it is time to do something. Of course, we could argue all day over what is reasonable.
