As far as active Forums, I see Getbig, definitely the most popular and freedom of speech friendly. Elitefitness (A paysite I believe but around longer than Getbig, my first site) Anabolex is barely alive and bodybuilding.com may as well be dead.
Getbig is what it is. MD was more bodybuilding related but less volatile.
-
Anabolex......geeze haven`t thought of that board in eons.
I think lots of people will come over here from MD........if they can hack it at first.

I remember a guy named BigKev scammed a bunch of us over there way back in the day and people went after him and dude ate his gun...shit was real.
-
At one point there was tons of pros on here that had special places on the forum and they would actively be on here, so no, I don’t think that’ll ever happen again. And we had some really good members here over the time even poster like groink ,sev was definitely a pot stirrer, and would really get some threads kicked, but this place is still fun and good to come to and check in.lots of lost classic posters moved on.

I remember him and hearing about that.
I must have posted and/or modded on 3 zillion forums back in the day. LOL ;D
What a waste.......almost as much of a waste as having over 60,000 posts on getbig. ;D

Yeah, but that's only an average of 5 posts a year for you.

EliteFitness and Anabolex I believe are run by the SARM scammer "Swillin' YerGelli". (Dylan Gemelli).
The 160 lb twink who pushes his SARMS on everyone..

300 was on TV like a year ago so I told my girl we should watch it because I know one of the guys in it.
"Really? Which one?"
Not a main guy. He opens some doors.
"Ok. Show me when he does it."
"It's like 2 seconds. You just see his back."
"And you know this guy?"
I know him online. From a fitness forum.
"You know a guy on a fitness forum."
Well not anymore. He hasn't posted there for like 15 years. I didn't really know him. He was just one of the guys on there.
And after all that you know what I got when I showed her Alexxx's back for the 1.3 seconds it's on screen?
"Why doesn't your back look like that?"
Bitch.

Everytime a pro tries to fit in at Getbig, we make sure to insult them away: Shawn Ray, Lee Priest, Bob Chic...
So no, i do not believe Getbig is going anywhere better.
-
Getbig is all well. Me and van bilderass are still lurking. I came on here in 1997.
Actually in has gone way down. It was cool when we kicked Bob C:s ass about The Ice Machine at Mirage in 2001 and earlier.
Gh15 bible.
Lee Priests fucked up antics.
Sean Rei never knew he was Shawn Ray.
Tom Prince still being a human. That meant when he was Alien looking and Non Human. RIP Tom Prince!
Also Titus was here and we got into him so much he was our Menchurian Candidate...
Times we had!

Why not bring it back?
-
It’s come full circle to some extent. Forums were essentially the predecessor of social media. Then when Facebook blew up, forums became yesterday‘s news.
Now, that social media has clearly jumped the shark on many levels and the woke bullshit has made real discussion impossible as everyone is deathly afraid of getting cancelled, a board like this has a lot of value. At least you feel as though the posters are really speaking their minds and not just virtue signaling.
-
Why not bring it back?
The reason it was eliminated was because of too many gimmicks. Personally I wouldn’t care if it were brought back.
-
Why not bring it back?
No clue..........you`d have to ask Ron ???
EDIT: ^^^^ See Thin Lizzys post above.

Getbig was fun, and sometimes still is. But back then people cared more about bodybuilding, and I had help in various sections with people who actually did care. Never was the money, never really had advertising on the boards. Just a place to have fun. But many of us grew up, had kids, now have kids in college, other jobs, and other interests too. Would love to build up some areas here at Getbig. Articles, interviews, etc, but time is of the essence. Family health issues, friends with other interests, and overwhelming work related projects that are still there.
As for guests, can't have them posting because too many issues with people impersonating someone else, and posting threats and porn, and just ruining things on purpose because they feel like it, and it makes them feel good by ruining other people and sites.
I have met some really good people here over the years, and some moderators that do care, and stick with it, good or bad. Thank you all for making it fun.
If someone wants to help, and build up some parts lacking, I am all for making it better. I have not updated parts of the site in a long while, putting kids thru college, family is important, work needs to pay bills. Keep in mind, with high traffic and still around 60,000 people a day, the invoices to run and maintain it for still there every month. I just go to less events as those cost a ton of money too. Not asking for money, but help maybe in getting some parts of the site updated to make it a more enjoyable visit.

Ron, I'd genuinely be interested in articles and interviews.
-
Getbig is the best forum on the net, period.
If there is a place to donate some money for the site to help Ron, give me a link.
I have stalked this board for eons. Heck, I know who Medford, Flower and Goatboy were, lol And Jeff and Jodi and Chadwick.
But back to my point- I'll contribute to the site financially.

Whatever I can do / you need from me I’m in! ….Get Big literally changed my life (thinking I was “ the shit “ and getting challenged and to stfu and compete … something I don’t think would have done if not for this place! “ I’ll show them “ was my mantra that I actually used to say in my My head during my second or third bout of cardio at midnight around my neighborhood! …. This place had to destroy me so we could build myself back up …. “ Tough Love” I guess you would call it …,anyways whatever you and or this place needs I’m in!

------------------------------------------
As for the original question, I think we will get some stragglers, at least the ones that really want to talk bodybuilding and gossip with little filter. It will take some time before we see them though.
The Reddit boards are horrible, you really have to keep it super positive on all the big boards there, or threads get locked, or swarths of comments deleted. Tons of SJW types there too.
Promuscle is still pretty active, but again you have to be relatively positive, and a lot of gossip is frowned on.
RxMuscle is dead.
Youtube comments can be great or horrible depending on the channel, but that can go at any minute.

Dont want any money donations. If you have a good interview, article that you wrote, or an idea to make an area better, and want to help, email me, and we can add it on. Bodybuilding for the people.

you need to try and coax pro bodybuilders to come back to getbig so we can abuse them again

Basile created explosive muscular growth for many. Just visualizing working out in the bicep supinator contraption increased my arm measurement by 2 inches.

How could we, The Getbigmembers, help you in a better way? Would 80,000 people a day or even 100k make the invoices more bearable?
Without you Ron, we would never have had SquadFather, Tbombz, Goodrum, Wiggs et al and such epic gems like "Gayer than", "Hope this helps", "Girls and sons" and so forth. So much joy and entertainment for decades.
Such great memories and gems during the years, that never will pass like tears in rain.

We have some 9 figure bitcoin whales on here like gib. I'm sure they could make sure Ronaldo has enough money to make getbig great again.

To be fair, the reason pros caught flack here was because they tried to sell the magazine propaganda of steroids being the “Finishing Touch.”

Iron age was a great site. It stuck to bodybuilding. It was heavily moderated so the nitwits went elsewhere. So many really great posters there that were really knowledgeable.

The last time I watched anything of his was some video trying to get Howard to make a comeback and die big instead of living fat small.

I agree but in the sense that all political posting should stop. Literally the entire rest of the internet is full of politic posting, it would be nice to have this place reserved for bodybuilding and G&O type humor
ProfessionalMuscle is pretty dry and I don’t like the atmosphere over there but they do a good job of content moderation .. you go on the main board and it’s all bodybuilding stuff aside from maybe 2-3 off topic threads.
