In a soup kitchen? Canned ravioli under a freeway overpass? Laying in a West Hollywood alley with a needle in his arm?

Not sure why he's taking up so much real estate in your head. But whatever the reason. He's winning.

The case of "Steve Arce" is fascinating.  Was it a long-running gimmick account, with the aim of scamming getbiggers for $1-2000?  Or was this really the account belonging to Steve, only to be hijacked for monetary gain?  Or perhaps Steve needed the money and purposely set up a scam?

Pretty interesting--so long as you didn't give him any money

What is going on with him then?  He took the money from getbiggers and pretty much disappeared.  I didn't give him any money so I'm not upset....just curious

People get desperate. When he can't pay back the money, whats he going to do, starve?

Reminds me of the time I let a buddy borrow $1,500 and it turned into me just giving him the money, lol.

Hey that's all good, but I don't think it'd be too much to ask to check in and let your benefactor's know what has been going on.

It just seems suspicious to ask for money and to disappear right afterwards.

There was only one occasions where I "lent" money to someone who was down and out. Although it was considered a loan I never expected to get it back any time soon. I would only lend money to someone very close to me and paying  me back I considered optional but I always presented as a loan as a way for that person to save face. It wasn't easy for this person to ask for money but when you get desperate pride takes a back seat.

I've always like Steve and he was one of my favorites on this board. Always positive and never a shit talker. I never really followed all the details of his situation but I do remember something about GBers donating money to him. I remember OMR confirming the veracity of Steve's story but I never really knew what it was.

Steve was on this board for a very long time so he's no gimmick and there was no grand plot to shake down the board.

Have you considered selling pieces of yourself to the high end leather industry?


You would look great as a pair of chukka boots or a panerai strap.

I thought it was the other way around. That Steve showed up to pick someone up that never arrived or even called to tell Steve his plans changed.

I have a set amount set in my head for family....li tell you what it is, say 5k....once you deplete it, done. You pay it back anytime it's open again....kinda like a line of credit with no interest and optional payback.

But I am very clear once it's drained, it's DRAINED. I will not lend anymore under ANY circumstance.

He has today to redeem himself,
If not I will be his greatest foe. Something not right,
He contacted me the day I left and then dissappeared.
One text "sorry busy with daughter" will suffice.


I haven't been able to contact him since being here,
Yet he texted me daily in Australia.

Weren't you the one that stood him up at the airport?

You seem to be pretty close to him. What happened? What led him to such bad times. He has/had a wife and kids and owned a gym/dojo.

I simply googled "would of been better to have never picked up a weight" and your picture came up.



and yes. I type fast/talk fast/think fast.





Its that mindset that will keep me from having to be a 70 year old online drug dealer (you wouldnt understand).

Thanks for the immediate response. I guess at over 6,000 post in less than a year this board is pretty much your life and you sit there in front of your screen all day waiting for responses to your posts. I  consider myself very active on this board and spend more internet time here than anywhere else. Still I manage less than 4 posts a day. You clock in over 4X the amount.
