More racism.  It seems to keep the G&O going strong.  It almost sucks that eh Shizzo this day in history thread is a sticky, because you forget it is here sometimes when you check the board.  I never look at stickies.

Used to be the wild west. 

That time is gone.

People go from thread fight to private investigator to expose you.

Interesting members are long gone.

Gimmicks are rampant.

Virtually no one cares about bb.  It's just DLB and Piana and Genova.

Board is also strictly modded because the crazies can't stand being called poo-poo head so they have to destroy them completely.

All in all boring threads.   Members constantly trying to out someone, not "own" them.

No idea how to fix.

Can you list the rampant gimmicks? PM it to me and it will be investigated.
Interesting people get talked about, DLB, Piano, Genova all put themselves out there on social media and show a side to their lives that isn't "eat chicken, eat rice, lift weights" until other real bodybuilders start doing the same, the freaks will garner the attention.
I think sf1900 said it in another thread, social media in general has killed off some attention from message boards and people tend to change interests as time goes on.

Seems to be a weird combination of lower number of actual contributing members..But higher number of lurkers and people feeding off of the information given by people who actually know things...Seems like the hierarchy is trying to be eliminated...Which is not a good thing...Boards need structure..People need reasons to stay on track and not troll...
