I was wondering why Issac started this "free" service for and I knew good and well that it wasn't out of the goodness of his heart.
Well folks, I decided to examine it and apparantly Issac is actually going to make a lot of money from this and hears why. Below is the Terms and Conditions of using the Musclephone service and I have highlighted the area of concern:
By texting in, you are subscribing to a text alert subscription. Standard text messaging fees and other charges may apply. You may stop this service at any time by sending a text message with the word STOP, END, or QUIT to 64274. Your phone must have text messaging capabilities. You must be the owner of this device and either be at least sixteen years old or have the permission of your parent or guardian. The service is currently only available in the United States. We value your privacy and will not share your information outside the Muscle Phone Network.
Now this highlighted may not mean much until you read about "The Muscle Phone Network.
THE MUSCLE PHONE NETWORK: We're currently building the Muscle Phone Network to include the industry's best media outlets and businesses. If you're interested in becoming part of the Muscle Phone Network and how you can benefit email us for more information.
Essentially Issac now has a list of the numbers of people interested in health and fitness and is in a great position to sell targeting advertising to health and fitness companies who agree to sign on to the "Muscle Phone Network".
Eventually, you'll receive the gossip and news..... ::) But you'll also be receiving advertisements from those on the Muscle Phone Network
One more thing, Sprayflex is a member of the Muscle Phone Network........hope you enjoy those ads ;D
Great job Issac, I didn't think you could sink so low. Selling text message advertising to companies. How pathetic...... :D

My phone rang in the middle of the night with a Spray Flex ad. woke me up...had to take a wicked piss, so i ran to the bathroom shortly after discarding the ad. I felt relieved. Had Musclephone not woken me up, my bladder may have burst in my sleep. :-\ :o
THANKS MUSCLEPHONE!
-
Vince...I knew this ;)
Maybe suscribers will be able to get some specials and discounts soon!
I look forward to getting some news sometime in the millenium, Isaac! Havent received any gossip at all :(

I posted something similar earlier but it got dumped to the Z-Board in about 10 seconds. For more about Musclephone tune into tonight's Big Nation.

Its going to get worse. Issac has just about everyone's phone number and can sell the information to the highest bidder.
And he's not even spending any money. There is a new piece of software out for 49.95 that allows him to send out SMS text messages over an internet connection. He pays nothing!!!
-
Or he could manually send out each text msg from his own cellphone for free with an unlimited text plan!
How does one UnSubscribe before one starts getting spammed?

Without the Lift Studios Muscle PhoneTM, how on earth would I know that Cell-Tech is now 2,345.99% more anabolic than before?
Thanks, Musclephone! :D
-
Vince, Ed....dont you guys hate that you never thought of MusclePhone?
Now Lift is going to be filthy rich!!
I hope this business venture works out for him~!

We Need Musclephone in Europe!!

It's the only way he stands any chance of ever scoring some pussy.

vince would probably be a good lawyer
his technical capabilities are astonishing, im always impressed with his diligence in taking the time to actually read 'junk' or useless info but somehow manages to find a pot of gold somewhere where no one else would look
he could be a member of the gaylord/musclegayning/ division of the falcon brothers

Hey.... after hearing all the testimonials for the Lift Studios Muscle PhoneTM and seeing how many lives it has touched and changed, a little spam should be a small price to pay.
Thanks, Musclephone! :D

why do you guys hate on anything and everything in the bodybuilding community? this is a cool, free service that lift is porviding that we didnt have untill he came up with the idea. why bash it?
it seems to me that many of you are very anti-bodybuilding...yet you post here constantly..? doesnt make any sense
-
I posted something similar earlier but it got dumped to the Z-Board in about 10 seconds. For more about Musclephone tune into tonight's Big Nation.
I'm pretty sure Isaac also deleted the thread where I linked to his transformation article on BB.com. It's posted over there for thousands to see, so why not post it here too?

if you had any amount of intelligence you would know that i never once said anything about not using toothpaste. squadfather is a jackass and constantly mis represents me...for what reason..i dont know.. he is jealous that i am young and have my whole life ahead of me? probably. but point being... candidizzle never said anything bad about toothpaste
id appreciate if you cut out the libel

Ok Jerryme, I'm not sure if you're being sacastic or not but just to make sure. Take a note of this.
Issac has just 10 companies in the Musclephone Network.....
Those 10 companies send 2 messages to your phone a day offering discounts and coupons
That equals to about 600 text messages a month which means you better have an unlimited text plan or expect to pay $60.00 a month.
You get it now????

Amazing, but get real. Musclephone was created to give people the latest news on various subjects, maybe one a day, or one every other day, or so on. To get the results very quickly, even if you are not at home.
You are not going to get 600 messages a month. Come on.
Musclephone is a cool way to get information. You don't like it, you don't sign up.
But if you think people are selling your name, you are dead wrong. Even myself here, with thousands of emails and numbers, won't do that.
Isaac has a lot of respect and integrity, and loves to promote the sport of bodybuilding. Instead of trying to help push a positive trends on new ideas, and new creative ways, you don't. And no, it isnt about making a lot of money at all.
Hell - if someone gave you some free samples, you would create a conspiracy from it. Jeez
-
Nice try Vince but your efforts will be as productive as your contest history. No one is getting spammed. It's a free country if anyone who has signed up doesn't like the service, the site also shows how they can opt out at any time.
MattC - the thread about my transformation didn't get deleted it was moved to another board. I have no problem showing that I was once a fat ass and competed twice. What's the big deal?
Carry on and if you haven't signed up you can do so at www.MusclePhone.com (http://www.MusclePhone.com).

exactly, Isaac has every right to start whatever type of venture he wants, it's a free country, if you don't like it don't sign up for the damn thing but don't fault a guy for hustling and trying to make a few bucks.

Exactly, we all need to be more supportive and positive and think of ways we can help Isaac and Musclephone, instead of constantly bashing the man for no reason.
Isaac is a very smart businessman and most of you are just jealous that he thought of this idea and not you.
None of us could pull off Musclephone without the business acumen and industry contacts of Isaac.
Besides, how would anyone other than a Muscletech/AMI/Weider insider get the news that Jay Cutler has won the 2008 Mr. Olympia six months BEFORE the show? SpecialEdPhone.com would actually need to wait until AFTER the results were announced to send that information to your phone.
Thanks to getting in on the ground floor and investing heavily in the Musclephone IPO, I can rest easy knowing my children's education will be paid for.
Thanks Musclephone!

Ooooooooooo......a whole $60. Thats some serious cash there. I would venture that most people have unlimited texting now Melvin. You are such a tool that even Black and Decker wonder how they compete with you.

Yes, only JC Lopez and Isaac have the capability to pull off scams of this magnitude. ;D
j/k - I like Isaac and he's even got my number, but if I ever get a text message from Musclephone, I'm going to sock him in the nose! lol

Ron, I know you are partners with Issacs in the venture but the writing is very clear as to what Muscle Phone is all about. Yes, its a free country, however people should know exactly what they are going to get.
The fact is that the "Terms and Conditions" and the information of the "Muscle Phone Network" means that advertisers will have access to the Muscle Phone subscribers.
Now, if Issac can garrantee that no text message subscriber is going to receive any advertisements from supplement companies then I'll be the first to apologize ,however, I'm obviously not going to have to do it.....ISN'T THAT RIGHT ISSAC???!!!
BTW, very convenient that the title of my thread was changed.
-
Melvins theory could turn out to be correct. I hope you all have free unlimited text messaging or else have fun with the added expenses to you cell phone. ;D
-
I resent the use of 'Nazi' in the thread title.
I have Jewish relatives (and former girlfriends).

Ron is not a partner in the venture.
Yes, Vince it is clear, hence why there is terms and conditions. When you can spell "guarantee" come back and play.
Why would I sabotage myself by sending out things I wouldn't want to receive myself? Easy - I wouldn't. One thing I can GUARANTEE - no one will receive anything about your magic stick or bee pollen. :-*

So let me get this straight, no text message subscriber will receive advertisements from supplement companies including in the "latest results" or whatever the shit you're sending out???
Is that so, Issac, you're sending out the latest information without any return compensation to you.....is that what I'm hearing????
-
lift how come my gay phone hasn't gone off today?
i was looking forward to the exclusive lift studios content, eg- what time of the day phil heath takes a dump
when he sticks needles in his ass etc..

Word is, the Lift Studios Muscle PhoneTM fits prominently into the Fed's plan to bail out the banking system and maintain liquidity in the credit markets.
Thanks, Musclephone! :D

I am in no way partners with Isaac in that venture. I think it is a good idea, and will help him out, but I have nothing to gain. There will be no advertisements from companies, that isnt what text messaging is for. There will be a 'Brought to you by Muscletech or so' which is fine with me. The title of the thread was changed because I dont like caps in threads, and it is an attack instead of a discussion.
ron why are so naive? were you born yesterday?
I was born many yesterdays ago. What does naive mean?
I resent the use of 'Nazi' in the thread title.
Discuss and debate ok. But that is crap. Learn to discuss, and stop with the gay this and that.

Id rather have Squadfather phone, get messaged everytime a pro bodybuilder lies.

Now that we've established that information is being sold to supplement companies....the subscriber has the right to know that they will receive sponsored advertisement.
-
I have unlimited text messaging so I am thankful MusclePhone is a free service : ).
Isaac made sure to let everyone know that standard text messaging rates apply if you dont have unlimited texts on your cell plan...
-
I was born many yesterdays ago. What does naive mean?
It's a slang term from the hills of western North Carolina.
I believe it means, "he who wears coke-bottle glasses".

melvin goodrum! you deserve a pair of davana s legs breaking a few ribs of yours as a congrats on this thread ;D.
would love to hear how mel stumbled upon this.he does have a point here clearly , ron nor lift have said otherwise...hmmm
-
Now that we've established that information is being sold to supplement companies....
Information is being sold??? Are you high???
Next you will tell me that information is being sold here on Getbig too??? Because I have some banners on the main page. It is called 'getting sponsors' to help pay for the expenses.
-

Placing banners on a message board, Ron, is your right and people who come here know and expect the ads to be there. There's nothing hidden about that.
Issac on the other hand failed to mention or acknowledge the additional the there would be advertisements in the text messages or that it was possible that they may receive separate ads from the companies.
People have a right to know what they are actually getting especially when it comes to text message advertising.
One more thing, I would have been more polite about it but I didn't have any option after Special Ed's post about the same thing was deleted and moved immediately.
Simply put, Issac needs to put that information on his website as a lot of people really frown on text message advertisements.
Regardless of what you say Ron, in a court of law, its selling text message advertising to supplement companies without their knowledge
-

I'm not selling anyone's phone numbers and accusing me of such is a crock of shit. Trying to undermine a business with false accusations can land your redneck ass in court.

I'm used to dealing with legal issues in one form or another, and from what I can tell you didn't say anything illegal. You seemed to justify your point of view quite well. Plus, wasn't it more of a general thrust in pointing out Isaac may be selling your information, and not you actually coming out and saying that?
-
Regardless of what you say Ron, in a court of law, its selling people's cell phone information to supplement companies without their knowledge
OK... here we go... prove it. Prove that Isaac sold one cell phone to a supplement company. You wrote the statement. Go ahead. Back it up.
Of the years, people have told me that I gave my e-mail list, and more out. It is bull. I don't do it. No one has ever proved I did.
So go ahead, make a statement like that, and I am taking you up on it.
Proove it, back it up that Musclephone sold cell numbers to supplement companies.
or that it was possible that they may receive separate ads from the companies
Once again, prove it. Show me where any of the text messages were separate ads.
You made the accusations, you need to prove it!

Ron, I don't think you would like for me to prove it. I've already let Issac know about his other activities that he's been doing as well.
Actually, you made the statements. Back it up.
Since I have Musclephone, I know your two statements are not true.
Once again, prove it or recant it. Or goodbye.
You decide. I am not keen on false accusations. You have made some incredible ones in the past, but since I know this isnt true, it is up to you.
Proove it, back it up that Musclephone sold cell numbers to supplement companies.
Once again, prove it. Show me where any of the text messages were separate ads.

Actually, you made the statements. Back it up.

Ok, here's the very first post I made in this thread again:
I was wondering why Issac started this "free" service for and I knew good and well that it wasn't out of the goodness of his heart.
Well folks, I decided to examine it and apparantly Issac is actually going to make a lot of money from this and hears why. Below is the Terms and Conditions of using the Musclephone service and I have highlighted the area of concern:
By texting in, you are subscribing to a text alert subscription. Standard text messaging fees and other charges may apply. You may stop this service at any time by sending a text message with the word STOP, END, or QUIT to 64274. Your phone must have text messaging capabilities. You must be the owner of this device and either be at least sixteen years old or have the permission of your parent or guardian. The service is currently only available in the United States. We value your privacy and will not share your information outside the Muscle Phone Network.
Now this highlighted may not mean much until you read about "The Muscle Phone Network.
THE MUSCLE PHONE NETWORK: We're currently building the Muscle Phone Network to include the industry's best media outlets and businesses. If you're interested in becoming part of the Muscle Phone Network and how you can benefit email us for more information.
Essentially Issac now has a list of the numbers of people interested in health and fitness and is in a great position to sell targeting advertising to health and fitness companies who agree to sign on to the "Muscle Phone Network".
Eventually, you'll receive the gossip and news..... Roll Eyes But you'll also be receiving advertisements from those on the Muscle Phone Network
One more thing, Sprayflex is a member of the Muscle Phone Network........hope you enjoy those ads Grin
Great job Issac, I didn't think you could sink so low. Selling text message advertising to companies. How pathetic...... Cheesy
Other than your edits, Ron, its pretty clear as to what I said.
-
Oh and by the way Issac, if you decide to sue you'll have to do it without the "so called evidence of this thread".
Since Ron has edited the title of my thread, its considered altered information and cannot be admitted in any civil court case......
Whoops, I guess you'll have to find another bloody glove or sock..... ;D
-
Ron in all fairness the 2nd statement you chose is a bit selective isnt it ?
heres what he actually said :
Issac on the other hand failed to mention or acknowledge the additional the there would be advertisements in the text messages or that it was possible that they may receive separate ads from the companies
The 1st half of his statement above says he thinks Isaac sold ad space on his text service (which im starting to believe, which isnt a bad thiNG or wrong)
while the 2nd half above states the he thinks maayyyybe that its possible otherwise that ppl may recieve seperate ads - hes not sure about this...this isnt his sole argument, he`s assuming ,not claiming
so whats up WILL THERE OR WONT THERE BE ADS ON THE TEXT SERVICE ATTACHED TO THE NEWS AND GOSSIP???
-
Selling sponsored content is very different than selling numbers. Someone's number will never be given to anyone, which Vince is saying is/will take place. Simply not true. Could there be discounts to muscle phone subscribers for magazines, store purchases, supplements and other things? Yes, it is possible however the numbers have not nor will they ever be given out to anyone.
No one is forcing anyone to sign up for this. If you don't like it don't sign up. If you sign up and don't like it opt out. Hundreds of people have signed up and the number of people who have opted out are lower than Vince's IQ. This tells me people like the service and the only complaint I get is why isn't there more news being sent out.

Don't even bother Rampage, there's nothing Issac can do to me. He's been busted.....again.
Sort of like the time you did that shit to Kamali's website and posted that he didn't pay his bill for everyone to see.
-
It's entirely possible that Lift has agreed to include 'this message brought to you by x-powder company' in text messages sent out by his service WITHOUT having given anyone's information to the company itself.
When a television advertiser pays to support a network broadcast into millions of homes, they don't get the personal information of every viewer who watches a particular show. This is the same concept.
That said, I do not know how Lift is financing or generating revenue with his Musclephone service, but I DO know that he is not going to lie about something like that when his professional reputation is on the line. He might sugarcoat things from time-to-time when protecting certain individuals, but when it comes to his business, he's as straight as they come. Musclephone might be very gay ;D, but Lift is a straight-shooter.
-
Apparently all the negative press has taken its toll, as Musclephone was forced by its creditors to file for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy protection today. After Melvin Goodrum broke news about the sinister plot to profit from people's personal information, Musclephone stock slid down and the cancellations started rolling in. By day's end, Musclephone was in such poor financial condition that its owners were considering selling off the remaining assets for a Dave & Buster's $10 Card. It's a sad day in bodybuilding when a Schmoe can't make a living doing what he loves.
RIP Musclephone!

I will have my lawyer send you a letter should you continue to make false accusations against me and my business ventures. I'm not selling anyone's information and it would be in your best interest to stop the accusations.
You definitely don't want a piece of me, pal and I'm actually the least of your worries...... ;D
You're so tough Melvin....wow....everyon e shakes in the their shoes when you come across so tough. Does your boyfriend get all hot and bothered when you do that?
-
Seems like this Issac and Ron guy are both just having fun with this service.
No serious money, maybe a couple bucks from the ads on the site, some fun and a cool service for bodybuilding fans.
Melvin must be really hard up to be so jealous of a couple guys making some pocket change.
-
LOL
-
LIFT will likely add in a line "this story brought to you by ABD Supplements, the leader of XYZ muscle building supplements, available at www. "
It'll make it worth his time and make him a profit. Yeah, half the news story will be a "convenient link to save $ for our subscribers only!" but we know that's just spam. And it's his right.
Vince, it's almost April 1st. What lousy prank do you have planned for this year? Every year it's something with you. Working for the cardinals, selling your business... what'll it be this year?
-
NO!
Now where will i get my late breaking bb news?
-
Treasury Dept just rescued them! Holla!

Uh, that's what I said in the first post I made....... ::)
Yes, no one is forcing anyone to sign up but people have a right to know that you're selling text message advertising to supplement companies.
Things that make you go hmmmmmmmm.........
-
Hey Vince you should start Gay, Fat, Sloopy and Loser Phone. You would make a million off that cause it is something you know about.
-
Oh and by the way Issac, if you decide to sue you'll have to do it without the "so called evidence of this thread".

Altered information.....I suppose thats what your crack team at PrePaid Legal told you huh? Once again Melvin you are saying/doing things that you cant back up. Much like the bet you made with me for the Arnold. Cant wait to see what a pile of steaming shit you look like at the Metrolina.
-
Vince has been saying he has dirt on Issac for like 2 years now.
He's bluffing.
-
I'm not selling anyone's phone numbers and accusing me of such is a crock of shit. Trying to undermine a business with false accusations can land your redneck ass in court.
MUSCLEPHONE MELTDOWN
Don't waste your time. Vince has Pre-Paid legal and they are defending the some of the richest people in the world for only $29.00 a month. He would kill you just in your attorney legal fees. Plus Vince doesn't even make enough to pay for this service so you wouldn
t be getting anything but a big laugh

Uh you're wrong at this. There is a lot of money in text message advertising and even more in a targeted audience.
There's more than pocket change at stake which is why there has been a number of threads that have been deleted pointing out the same thing I did.
I didn't put out any groundbreaking news.....Special Ed already put it in a thread last week but it was relegated to the Z Dump.
-

hahahahahaha

I just got a message on my MusclePhone saying Vince is full of shit. Thanks

Actually, they could even take the case but this is a different firm on retainer. Some thing require a bit more money

So you think Pepsi is going to shell out big bucks for ~300+/- phone numbers to send "Join the Pepsi Generation!" SMS messages to them all?
Maybe so.
I would not sign up because I am too afraid of receiving unsolicited SMS messages from Pepsi.
-

Once again, you have not answered these accusations. This is what I care about. Don't give me a whole garb of wishywash. You said these statements.
Since Ron has edited the title of my thread, its considered altered information and cannot be admitted in any civil court case......
Lord... you have no idea.... coming from someone that has been involved in a few legal cases, including one of the biggest ephedra cases regarding AST and more...
so whats up WILL THERE OR WONT THERE BE ADS ON THE TEXT SERVICE ATTACHED TO THE NEWS AND GOSSIP???
Attached to the breaking news, as it always has, it will say brought to you by whomever. But attached ads - no. Brought to you, yes. You only have 160 characters per text message. And so far, it is a fun item to get, especially for breaking news out there...
-
Or he could manually send out each text msg from his own cellphone for free with an unlimited text plan!
How does one UnSubscribe before one starts getting spammed?
i bet its one computer with voip. ;D

No, actually the Fed is guaranteeing Musclephone's debt, and has brokered a deal for JP Morgan Chase to buy them out at $2 a share! (personally, I think Isaac should hold out for $10. ;))

"This just in... Phil Heath took his second dump of the day. Brought to you by Muscletech Cell-Tech... 2,678.5% more anabolic than bee pollen!"
Thanks, Musclephone! :D
-
I want MY musclephone ! >:(
-
But if you think people are selling your name, you are dead wrong. Even myself here, with thousands of emails and numbers, won't do that.
Now I can cross off Getbig being responsible for all those spam emails for penis enlargement!
Who knows what Goodrum has found on his journeys in the gay internet?

FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT

Ron, go to law school one day. This isn't a case about ephedra as there are thousands of paper documents over the course of 15 years.... ::)
The only so called evidence is this thread and it would be easily thrown out because you were proactive in editing my words. That leaves Issac without anything....
Issac's been busted.....he needs to get back to creating web sites instead of trying to skim some money off supplement companies with selling text message advertising.
BTW, if Issac is such a stand up guy, why did he screw with Kamali's website for???
-
on a side note........i pushed 945 on the leg sled last night for 2
-
Lifestudios is involved in it, hence it is doomed from the start.
-
I'm still trying to figure out Goodrum's offering of 'legal services' on his website...as it links to a real-estate company in Montana.
