Eh. Been here since 2000; same shit every year, different characters is all.

Squad sucked, by the way. Never understood the praise. Plenty other fellas far more clever and witty.

I think it was his ability to incite massive meltdowns through the simplest of insults that allows for many to hold him in such high regards.

Gayer than, is the type of guy,Monster triceps,  pics or it never happened, post a video, were used relentlessly.
His demand for verification,  while never providing his own, was classic trolling.

Sarcasm got to everyone,  pros included.

I think he thought himself untouchable and the "celebrity" from the ownings went to his head; thus his inevitable exposure.

He wasn't the most clever just the most relentless.

Being an asshole troll gimmick hero on Getbig takes as much skill as the typical American woman acting the bitch in movies and sitcoms!

I thought the dude was a joke, but ultimately all that matters is that he is still spoken of in hushed voices years later

Getbig's your last shot at a legacy, only reason you remain. Careful with your tone, Nothingman.

Vince when I reference you as a bodybuilding legend I sincerely mean it. Your accomplishments and friendships in this community speak for themselves.  In person I believe you'd be someone most here would enjoy to converse and learn from.

Online however, you project as an angry, arrogant, pompous goof. Over time we've seen you engage and insult everyone from Goodrum to Chic to OMR to Ron. Despite this behavior you demand respect and then cry foul that this site refuses to honor you.

You then have the stones to insult our hollowed legends, which, there is no debating this, you desperately desire to be.

Your very actions betray you Vince.  

You think  that by publicly identifying yourself you've given legitimacy to your hidden intentions , but a rose by any other name is still a rose.

We see you Vincent,  a getbigger recognizes one of its own.

Troll ahead and onward.

240 or bust deserves a lot of credit for the great 2005-2006 years on Getbig.

240 was definitely a force back then, yes. Worst name in Gb history, though.

Facebook has killed off a lot of the fun, back in the day the fitness/figure slots and ifbb pros used to have to use forums to get attention, now everybody in the world thinks they are a mini celeb with their Facebook page so no need to attention whore on forums.

The Asian guy, right? Whateva, with the silly wig. Dude was a ringer. Wasn't here before, didn't stay after.

Hahaha yup; that wig;  he was so afraid of being outted. Remember how after his win he started posting a little and everyone flamed him for his few post count.
Then TA found he was a natural pro in some random fed.
Didn't Waddy/Falcon take 2nd and Adam 3rd anyhow....

Mindspin got Dr. Connley involved or some prize from him, what a sweet contest.

I also think this was the beginning of Sarcasm's demise. He was originally supposed to be a judge and everyone wanted him to post pics and reveal himself and then it was decided he couldn't participate.  Seeds were planted.

Don't remember the other placings, but I remember DW was involved. Mesomorph, too, I think. All I remember about Sarcasm, aside from the stupid high school bully insults, was when Mindspin made him surrender his name over some bet.

I agree with most of whats being said.
Compared to places like bb.co this is heaven

Ive been here for 11 years and I've enjoyed my stay.

Positive: JPM on the training board is one of the most knowledgeable minds on this forum regarding weightlifting.

Negative: The whole "gimmick" things is/was out of hand

but i generally come here for fun these days so I'm satisfied.
