With all of the problems lately......
« on: June 09, 2010, 12:15:39 PM »
Are Getbigs days numbered ?

It's hard to explain, but does anybody else feel that "game over" vibe in the air?

And this brings up an interesting question.....Will we get a heads up, or will you go to log on one day and its just gone?

I was about to post a thread titled "WTF is wrong with getbig"

It has turned to a few little bitches posting useless threads one after another and the sheep flocking to them giving the little attention whores more attention. There's nothing funny, original or interesting anymore.  At least we had a few real bodybuilders posting and shit happening.  Now it is rife with bullshit and waste of time.  A post that I replied to yesterday morning is still half way down on the first page.  That is unheard of.  Usually if no one posts for a day on a thread it is already three pages down. Look at the top twenty subjects now.  Plain pathetic.

I’m surprised get big isn’t dead already. Its not exactly user friendly.. super slow, constantly down. Its definitely dying.

ron wont let this site go.  how the hell is he going to get his back stage schmoe card?  lift-ticket got a camera, and lonnie has a mic.  ron would personally invite every douche in time-out and one ran from this site such as special ed, blockhead, wackdaddy, etc.

who works for a hosting company to help ron's coke bottle wearing behind out?

Good question Groink there will be withdrawals if this occurs. We'll miss the daily war with you and Team Nasser as well.

Getbig has lost a lot of really good posters over the past year or two but there is still a good amount of high quality ones remaining and as long as they stay, I will keep wading through all the jerkoff spammers and trolls with zero personality and the horrible load times.

Board has been slowly dying for a while. The G&O isn't even worth reading anymore.

Getbig died 3 years ago.  Ron just hasn't gotten around to officially pulling the plug.

The frequent issues only serve to point out how much time gets wasted here.

GB has completely jumped the shark.

Nothing more than a bunch of 150 lb twinks, zero-genetic arabs and one HIV infested Romanian.

Not worth the 4-hour log-in....next.

This is the dullest time of the year for Getbig, but it will get a lot better in 2 - 3 months, closer to Olympia time. A lot of people start posting again and it will be very busy.

I'm with Poly - it's not as kickass as it used to be, but the good posters still make this place more interesting than any other forum. Getbig itself will never be gone, cause even if it crashes or gets hacked, Ron can re-install the forum software and restore the database within a day or 2.

I dont know mate it takes a day or two just to clean up viruses and malware here could be a week unless there is a DR plan.

It seems like a lot of the great posters have migrated to other boards or been driven off here..

But a lot of guys just stopped posting or moved on to other sites..GB has almost no classic posters left (guys like Alexxx, Falcon, Fat Dave, Jimmy, Mower, Alex23) and pretty much all the pro's stopped posting here as well, I remember when I first started reading this site there was like 10 pro's posting regularly (Titus, Prince, Kamali, Chick, Silvio, bunch of others) now all we go is Steve Namat

true,but alex23 is still here in some presence or another lol,,,the other guys moved on or banned,falcon was great but he gets banned immediantly after returning.chick still wields his sword,he has a family and hopefully obligations to attend for money.

I hope not but if GB dies then expect a international spike in productivity.
