Getbig is Back - WTF Happened!
« on: June 03, 2025, 12:54:36 PM »

Well

Needless to say, this has been a journey. With all the craziness, we went way over tons of gigabytes in storage and database blew.  Can't revive it, as data was corrupted, so we used an older version, and had to add another hard drive into the system just to hold all the attachments, and more. Took a long time with limited resources.  But I still enjoy our little world, so thank you to the ones that will help, as costs now are nothing like they were way back.   I met a lot of friends over the years from this site, and hope it will continue.

Ron

Nobody will admit it but Bhanks filed an injunction to suspend all getbig activity. Getbig is only back temporarily on appeal.

He’s the reason it crashed. Like Iron Man holding back Thanos’ gauntlet. Ron won out in the end. Bhanks turned to dust...
