Here's what the site looked like in 2003-2004 just so you know ;D

For those who wondered what made it popular...it was the first forum that had a plethora of IFBB pro regularly posting
Chad's Athletes

I was there before I came here (I think) got into plenty of arguments with Tom Prince. Met at the 2006 Ironman and buried the hatchet.
-
those were good days
-
I remember.
Jennifer McVicar -- chick was hot AF. What ever happened to that ass?

Tom Prince was the one who hooked me up with the right people to really turn the business around. He's a great person and always was honest about anything you asked. Didn't bullshit or anything...he was the main Pro who posted regularly
-
But where are all the links to these old online feuds? None of these actually work, but for those of us who weren't there, can you olden time getbiggers share links to some of the 'all time' stuff or what? Prince? Titus? Milos? DA? Kamali? Hook us up!

A few cliffnotes:
Muscle Mayhem was way ahead of its time in terms of forum design. If you compare the site to what Getbig looked like in 2002-2003, its no comparison. The thing that killed the site was over moderation unfortunately.
People Around:
I was one of the first members. Chad actually asked me to join up to help build the Nutrition section. At the time, I was at Meso-Rx under the name Hefty Smurf 2000. It was also the first time I used the name "Vince Goodrum". King Kamali actually respected me for being one of the few people who used my real name even though Vince is a nickname. I spent the majority of my time posting articles in the Nutrition section...same thing I did here Getbig at the time....that's why some people didn't remember me as I hardly post in Gossip at the time
Keith Jones (Onlyme) mostly posted in Bodybuilding History. Contributed a lot of great material as well as some awesome powerlifting and strongman stories.
Layne Norton at the time was an arrogant little kid who spouted off some really stupid shit. Bob Chick and Tom Prince ripped him a new one and ran him off to BB.com. He got smoked pretty good
Tre....well he was still Tre... ;D
OneMoreRep was mostly posting MMA shit I think...could be wrong
True Adonis was pretty big husky guy at the time. Posted about his "calorie is a calorie" deal. Always been a good friend and helped me get payback at a very bad time in my life.
Tom Prince posted most often out of all the pros followed by Bob Chick, Craig Titus, and Kamali.
Chad Mower went by the name Ifearnoman
There was a regular poster named BigKev....scary dude. Threatened to kill King Kamali openly over the boards. Died in a shootout with the police....shot himself to avoid being taken alive

That stuff just isn't archived....sorry
-
I still have all the animated gifs somewhere.
-
I had like the first post in the chemical warfare section, asking Chad about insulin. It lead to a big discussion with Milos etc joining in. Then Milos got banned. I don't know if the thread could be found but it would be cool to see it again.
-

Those were the best thing
-
there seems to be other boards that still can be viewed
http://timwescott.proboards.com/user/85/recent
ifearnoman has posts from 2004 here, 300+ of them
-
I see myself in the active user list in the June 19th 2004 screenshot :D
-
I remember that forum , lots of pros and amat bbers on there posting , remember Steve kulco when he first got into bbing serious, we are around the same age and Titus, prince was always funny! Haha
What happened to the site?? That's gone but getbig is still here? ;D
-
That was a great forum, I mostly just read it, but lots of great info and entertainment...
-
Thanks Vince. Great thread!
-
Lana used to post a ton about her egg whites.
MassiveG was a poster who never revealed what he looked like, as far as I can remember. Just really hairy hands. Tore up his knee coming down the stairs.

Wow, meso-rx, I remember posting there. They had an open classified section there. I remember getting into it with a company call Redstar Labs and all his dudes had South Park names. He was underfilling viles and when I called him out he jumped my shit and had his dudes flame me. From what I understand he ended up turning scammer. I forgot all about that place until you mentioned it.
-
I remember it well, i was there 2003
-
Was there in 2003 and 2004. Think I became a member there the same time I joined Getbig..
-
I remember when kovacs was working with him, got on there and had a meltdown after a day. Very angry man.
-

I remember starting a thread about an issue of Musclemag that featured a nice photoshoot of Dina Al-Sabah and a quote from Milo concerning Chad's "phenomenal diuretic." Is that what it was? It was rumored to be that or plasma expanders.
-
Back then I was somebody else wreaking havoc on the board.
-
Web Archive can be weird about what it archives. Sadly, all of deep Muscle Mayhem stuff looks gone. Generally, the later the year, the better chance you get at them archiving full threads.
Watching arguments on that board was what lead me recheck out Getbig and join. I remember it was a Viking Power vs. Tom Price thread that got locked over there, but continued over here, much to Tom's dismay.
It got boring when they tried to transform into a nice forum, and I think Nichols finally got tried of policing the boards.
-
Was a great board.

I remember reading that "casa lana dora" thread and thinking to myself what a annoying c

Lana's Egg Whites.

Remember him?

Guy had more muscle tears then muscles

Unsurprisingly, Zone Capone is now a "5% athlete".

Makes perfect sense.

IDK never really read there even though I was active on forum boardings then too.
MD is a respawn of that board pretty much. But I never read there either. :D
Probably because people get banned when a mod or "pro" get buthurt so the discussions are stale and boring.

I remember the plasma expanders that milo talked about
When Milo owned that coliseum gym of his I worked out there a few times, milo was always one of the more open pros, he'll talk gear, insulin, gh, u name it
-
My name was Milly on there, it started out several years prior as Milhouse, but everyone called me Milly so it stuck from there.
That's why when I rejoined here a few years ago I went with Nelson Muntz, to keep the whole Simpsons theme going
I used to be a real dick to Vince back then, and I felt bad about it after the fact.
Cool thread Vince, trip down memory lane, I think that was when GetBig was at the peak of it's creativeness from 2004-2010 from what I have read over the years.
Honestly reading the boards back then during work both kept me training hard and laughing my ass off during some pretty dark times in life

lol yeah he was all over MD forums for a while

lol. massive g never posted a pic? He inspired a whole generation to permabulk as he was DC approved.
he pushed the eat like a 300 pounder but use a cc of test and a thimble of deca propaganda.
later some newb exposed private chats with him where he was telling the newbie lifter to take 3+ grams or something ridiculous after he was paid to coach him.
-

lol Massive G was a massive fatass.
He ended up over at ProMuscle with DC and he ended up needing heart bypass I believe.......

I remember Rich would talk about his acting.

I remember him posting this and gloating about reaching the legendary (for bodybuilders but normal for the average getbigger) 300lbs with abs. Blood pressure of piss.

Who made the Kamali/Frog comparison pic? They actually used it on the Mayhem homepage so someone had a sense of humor over there :D
-
good ol' times for sure, i remember i got warned (and/or my post deleted) just because i made a joke about sniffing either Monica Brandt's or Jenny Lynn's panties. Sensitive mods over there. :D
-

i like how you tried to impress my by using his real name ::)
i swear youre the legit dumbest spook yo
EDIT: btw-- i don't want to "mince words" or have the above read in a facetious/"jokey-joke-joke" tone
NO....I literally think vince is the most horrible human being in this subculture and my hope is that he jumps in a pool of AIDS someday
-
I joined there maybe 08-09. I'm still a member but haven't been on in months. It's gone the way of every other forum...everyone's a pro making guru trainer. Typical broscience.
I HAVE to come on here regularly, just to read the threads if anything at all lol...

When you meet people in person, its hard to call by their forum name. But it seems as though you're still a bitter little twink who is still addicted to amphetamines

To this day people who make underground gear, 98% of the under fill. Which is the dumbest thing ever considering how fucking cheap it is for those mother fuckers to make a bottle of test. So fucking short sided...

Remember him?
What ever happened to that guy? Trader to his tribe if I remember. Total wigger...Could barely walk because his calves were so big. Made Mattarazzo's calves look untrained if I remember correctly...

He is now a "5% athlete" (the head of 5%ers in Sweden in fact), "killing it" and doing "whatever it takes". Check out the previous page.

They were white knights. Fucking embarrassing watching the mods over there...

In Sweden you can be arrested if you look like you use steroids just walking down the road. Needless to say Zone Capone has never even been looked at by the police for gear usage...

Really turn the business around eh?
10 years later you're a minimum wage monkey (literally) working a school leavers job living in rented accommodation :-\

Muscle Mayhem was fun for a few minutes, but once I came over to GetBig on a fulltime basis (circa 2003), I knew this was the only place worth calling home. ;)
I have some good stories from that place.
