Title: 25+ Years On Getbig
Post by: Vince G, CSN MFT on May 01, 2025, 01:03:56 PM
Just thinking and realized that I've been posting here for over 25 years since it was that funky chat.  All of the stuff...having my websites being made fun of for looking cheap, Keith and Me Beefing, Vince Basile, The PDI, etc.   


Well, here's to another 25 years

Legends don’t fake their death for attention.

You’ll never amount to anything more than a 4th tier poster.

22 years here. I wish I'd come up with a different handle. I chose some obscure TV wrestler's name from the 70's.  :(   
Some good threads over the years.

Nobody asked you fucks for your start dates.

This is about an S-tier poster celebrating a quarter century.

Show respect.

20 years ago for me.  I came over from Elite to check the ASC contest results where Dex won his first one.  The results always seem to be posted here first.  At this point, Ron had stopped guest accounts and made people registered.  I was always lurking in the background and rarely posting, hence my username.  Hard to believe it has been that long.

Goodrum is related to a professional bodybuilder who will deny that relationship. That is how he had some insider information over the years. Decades ago he was challenged to show the board what he looked like because he was so critical of others. From that exposure (see below) he has remained the certified board buffoon! He never won a contest or opened a gym.

didn’t he actually compete? And I remember Shaun Ray used to post her as well as Lee Priest. I think Milo did as well as fat tamale. Didn’t lead priest call somebody out to a fight? Lol.

You can lack a physique but it's way worse to lack self-awareness.

Coming up to 20years.
Didn’t even realize..

You 25+year guys have been here almost from the start of the online forums, not just Getbig.

I remember bumping into a frontpage of this a couple of times before finding the forum part.
At first didn’t even know what it was supposed to be.😊
