Which old timers are still here??
« on: February 02, 2019, 10:19:24 PM »
I haven’t been around in years. How many of the guys from way back when are still here? Kiwiol? Man of Steel? SSBG?

Kiwi - no.

MoS - Yes, but no. Comes back, then leaves, then comes back.

SSBG - No.

Offhand, maybe 10% of the old, old guard still posts semi-regularly. another 10 - 20% still pop in less than semi regularly, but regular enough not to be forgotten.

Facebook groups sort of killed a lot of forums. Other forums I was a regular on sort of went away and everyone posts on Facebook .

14 years vs 2 years.
for your comparison to be relevant you just need to wait until 2031. assuming you stop posting.

 I joined about 16 years ago, after John "Dirt Diggler" Romano's tirades got me curious.

15 years, with a few periods of inactivity.   IMO, the mid-late 2000's were the best of Getbig.

I'd say I started lurking and posting infrequently as guest / guest - using this name, and a couple of others around 22-20 yrs ago.  Registered in 2004

Wes pops up once in a while.  Wiggs is still here.  Others are using different names it seems. :-X

I think when MM and Get Big were both going strong and Bolex was up too, that was the best time for the boards especially.  GB specifically, probably was at it's best during that time thru about two years after MM died off, and later shut down....2007-8ish? ???

20 years hard time.

Musta been typing at the same time.

It’s gotta be 15-odd years. At least.
