Thank you for bringing up this important topic. I had planned to open my own investigation. The momentary giddy-schoolgirl excitement at seeing Galeniko's name cries for justice.

I don't think that it is malicious, truthfully. Looks like people using the search function, which is hard to fault.

And why can't they be bumped? They are on the board for a reason still. Is someone upset they are faced w/ the reality that we've not talked about anything new in over 10 fucking years?!?!?!

One guy (Rhino) was pulling that shit and it isn't cool.

One thing is to pull a thread or two that was started in 2011. Another thing is to pull up 10 threads.

That's an old forum troll trick. Many years ago, circa 2003, Jimmy (VikingPower) staged an attack on muscle mayhem under the gimmick known as "Excite_Bike". He and a group of mercenaries from GetBig went to Muscle Mayhem, clicked on the last page of the Gossip board and started to bump all of the old threads. Why isn't it cool? It detracts from the new material that is posted. It hides the quality threads created by members. In other words, their hard work is put to waste. The person is essentially shitting on the hard work of other members.

It was a decent campaign, but that crap won't work here.

But 20 pages of spamming an upcoming book about a murderer is A-O-K right?

If the owner wants to put up 20 threads with pictures of his cock, it would also be ok. He is the owner of this site and can do as he pleases.

Ron owns the forum, we don't. If he makes one thread every once in a while that involves a former, controversial IFBB pro, what's your problem with that?

I'm confused.

Are you saying Ron is posting as Ruidosored and Craigstwerp and bumping that thread every time it gets ready to fall off the first page?

Or, that Ron knows those two posters (one poster, one gimmick) and is fine with the spam?

Doesn't really matter either way, one more shit thread on the G&O is like throwing deck chairs off the Titanic.

None of the above. Ron created that Titus thread 2 months ago. If people still read it and find it interesting, that's fine.

If two guys are Titus fans and keep one thread going, that's also ok, because it's only one thread. When you decide to bump 10 threads from over 4-5 years ago, on the same day, yes that's a problem.

I think it's bullshit the main page of the bodybuilding gossip & opinions is just racist bullshit and political posts. Maybe bumping old threads isn't a bad idea.

Ron and the mods like racist and political topics. You never see those threads get deleted .

I was thinking more about having a little bit of common decency and showing some respect for the young lady that was murdered, in case her family ever came across those posts, but hey, it's Ron Avidan's board, so it should reflect him and his views.

Exactly. Acting like Craig is innocent is a slap in the face to the family of the victim.

It's a slap in the face to REALITY & TRUTH

I thought the same thing, lol. Figured old posters were coming out for Christmas, then quickly realized the fix was in.  >:(
