So why is he talking about it? Obviously we matter to him.
What did he exactly say?
I heard "I mean Getbig is still ********** no one really goes on forums anymore."
Says we are irrelevent 3:00 or so.
Him and Romano obviously lurk here and still know we matter.I'm glad the 2 goofy trolls read my posts and know I think they look like bags of shit. ;D
He did not say that at all. He said getbig.com was the most wel known or most important messageboard back in the day but social media replaces messageboards in general.
Forums are dead, he is right, only a few remain popular (like this one).True, most forums have weeks between posts.
Which is a shame, Forums are great, FB, IG, Twatter all suck bad... And are libtardian to boot...
The hidden forum under the Y board averages 100 posts a day.???
It never really slowed down.

Why would anyone listen to a 5’8 guy with size 14 clown shoes16 shoe
16 shoe
Says we are irrelevent 3:00 or so.
Exactly, just like all the liberals talking about Trump all the time.
He's in their head 24/7
Says we are irrelevent 3:00 or so.Truth. Mainly old closeted men on here bickering with one another.
We named a disease after him, that's got to hurt. It didn't even stay in the bodybuilding community like some of the slang and other weird things. Palumbo is known the world over for being an odd looking man with a giant gut because of us. Sadly, John Romano will never have this type of fame :(.
I wasn’t aware of this. Who takes the credit?
Shit most of us have been here for eons...........getbig wont die unless we all leave.
I have many disagreements with the avg getbigger. But, collectively, we "are a pretty big deal". I like Dave but he is wrong. He needs to upgrade his crew. Aceto isacesan old muzzie in my book. :D Lee Priest needs to disappearfor a while. He isbetter in small doses.annoying. Romano is a piece of shit. Jimmy the bull = piece of shit. Valentino = piece of shit.
Parts fixed. :D
Start brining in some younger guys or better yet just watch these guys.
Legit fixes. LOL. Perhaps I was being too charitable. I like Fouad & Luke. Both work hard in the gym and are easy to listen to.
Those two elderly gargoyles are still upset about us goofing on them last week.
Ron should honestly do an amnesty on old banned accounts.Would get more old faces back.INDEED !!

As jude_2 said, Dave wears a size 16 shoe.
But he claims to have been 5'10.5" at this prime. He may have lost some height with age. Apparently we lose 1cm per decade after 40, and Dave is 51 now, which could put him at 5'10". Unless he was lying about his height before.
From seeing him walking around the expos he did look to be at least 5'9.5". I could be wrong though.
Getbig is the only forum anyone goes on. So he's right and wrong.
Professionalmuscle has (I am pretty sure) we’ll over 100K members and thousands at any time. They have a pretty large store now as well.
Granted - it’s more of a true training / bodybuilding site as opposed to gossip.
As far as gossip and a place where even slobs l(no names - not at all trying to start shit) can pretend to be in “the industry know” - Getbig has never been rivaled. There’s fatty boom-bahs / sissy’s / slobs / creepy fat weirdos / real life social outcasts / and even delusional liberals. Basically fagggs / sissy’s / asshole fuckers or just plain ole fckrs
There are some really cool cats here - quite a few that I bet are normal as fck in real life. But let’s face it - there are some major odd jobs that 100% are their local town retard here.
I’ve said it before bbingfansschmoes, aren’t too different than the creeps that go to the AVN convention. There’s a lot of cool guys on here for sure, but a lot of schmoes are the same type of schmoes at the adult convention in Vegas
This may all be true. So if you feel this way, why are you still posting on Getbig and where do you fit in?
Edit, Army of One beat me, but here were the pics used to illustrate Palumboism -Jesus, Palumbo would have been better off if he never started lifting.

We've been using it since mid 2005 at least.
Palumbo says Getbig is a sewer......And he's a turd.
Can’t blame him after seeing this thread.
And he's a turd.
Palumbo is obcessed with Getbig. Always making remarks about this great place. Frustrated fella. Palumbo and his absent pro-card can be compared to Basile and his absent blue stars.
Forums are dead, he is right, only a few remain popular (like this one).

Ron never ever ever ever approves new accounts so getbig will die pretty soon.
GETBIG is still and has always been the best FNG place on the web - bar none

"What is Palumboism or Palumbism ?
Palumboism is a rare, complex disease only seen in the nether ranks of competitive bodybuilders.
There may also be a high level of vascular distension which never seems to go away in the patient, this will often result in veins having a 'worn out' apperance.
Yep, i left some local forums but once i logged into getbig, i was hooked. This place is insane :D
I'll bet Palumbo's wife makes him wear pajamas to bed and only has sex with the lights off so she doesn't have to look at that awful body.Three kids, she loves the cock!
Three kids, she loves the cock!
I am a fan of Dave and the RXMuscle content. Love Romano, he is very articulate and knows how to communicate his point of view. Why dont you like Romano? Aceto is great also.
It’s the best site on the internet. Nothing else even comes close.Best by far. One of the few forums that does not censor speech. Social media is useless in that regard. Getbig is a nice little snapshot of different views. I hope it does not change. I would venture if Getbig opened to advertisers for income the censoring would start. But Ron has mentioned that he runs the forum for pure entertainment purposes. And it delivers that in spades lol!
I feel the same way - they all bring their opinion and you can determine what you like or dislike -I like Palumbo. I think it was shitty how Arnold dissed him a few years back when he tried to interview him. I don't agree with Dave's Holocaust view though. But other than that he is a good interviewer.
ask dave is the best 30 minute bodybuilding youtube out there
Palumbo was confusing Getbig with Rxmuscle, he thinks because his forum is dead the rest are too.
Just popped in to RX's dead forum and it appears as though someone has set the record straight for Mr. Palumbo.
What did he exactly say?
I heard "I mean Getbig is still ********** no one really goes on forums anymore."
EDIT: I think he said "Getbig's still up but...".
It's a shame forums dropped in activity, they are/were infinitely more entertaining than whatever people use these days with their real names on it.Anonymity allows people's true opinions.
I sure am glad I'm not a zoomer and I actually got to experience the golden age of the internet & video games before social medias and SJW/feminist culture.

"What is Palumboism or Palumbism ?
Palumboism is a rare, complex disease only seen in the nether ranks of competitive bodybuilders.
The condition is first characterised by the sudden development of an enormous midsection whereby the entire width of the trunk, ribcage and pelvis grows disproportionately whilst the oblique muscles will thicken rapidly and the abdomen will become distended with the patient unable to hold in their stomach.
The condition is further characterised by chronic metamorphasies of the facial and cranial features, culminating in thick folds of dermal tissue round the mouth and thickening of the Levator labii. Mandibular and mental protuberance hypertrophy and overall cranial hyperplasia, accompanied by a dramatic increase in the size of the frontal ridge follows. Premature aging is also common with Palumboism
A particularly spectacular symptom used to confirm diagnosis are disproportionally small limbs on the otherwise gigantic upper body. This is first observed in the upper limbs, where the arms seem to remain in a catabolic shrinking state compared to the torso who's internal structures are growing out of control in all directions. The reasons for this are not yet understood. The quadraceps muscles of the legs also seem to be ever shrinking.
Overall a more neanderthal type structure develops:
In advanced Palumboism the outer dermis takes on a crackly brittle look, almost as if the patient has been glazed or varnished like a ceramic souvenier. The color of the skin will become uneven displaying varying hues and shades from grey to bright orange throughout the entire body, whilst the skin may appear weathered and abnormally aged.
There may also be a high level of vascular distension which never seems to go away in the patient, this will often result in veins having a 'worn out' apperance.
Perhaps the most unusual and distressing issue is that the patient seems totally unaware of what is happening to him.
Post mortem examination of patients sometimes reveals large quantities of a foreign oil-like substance in the biceps and anterior deltoid muscle heads.
What causes Palumboism ?
It is not fully known what causes the disease, although it is speculated that a genetic predisposition combined with an over reliance on high and never ending doses of various anabolic drugs accompanied by a gradual 'shut down' or mutation of the patient's own endiginous endocrine system possibly awakening dormant cro-magnonesque genes are causative factors.
Although Palumboism shares some symptoms with Acromegaly it should not be confused due to the additional conditions described above when making a diagnosis.
Treatments
There is no known cure for Palumboism, as long as the patient remains on his drug regimen there is little comfort and the condition will continue to deteriorate.
Promptly discontinuing drug use may halt further development of the condition although it cannot be fully reversed.
Palumboism in women
Although Palumboism can occur in the female sex it is extremely rare for the condition to reach the advanced stages witnessed in men, therefore accurate and prompt diagnosis becomes more difficult.
Whilst it should be noted that female Palumboism must not be directly confused with the seperate condition of virilization which is more commonly encountered, more cases of female Palumboism are being diagnosed and reported everyday."
I emailed Mr. Palumbo and asked him to post on getbig and his response, "I don't even have time to post on my own forum."His schedule is so packed. ::)
