there are certain members who think its ok to insult other members loved ones.
these guy's are bringing the quality of the board down in a major way.
they do nothing positive and they keep intelligent people away from the board.
I've been getting messages about reporting them to Ron.
well its the board that allows their behavior.
so I would like to know the boards opinions about these members.. who attempt to cut down and insult with every post.
I say enough of their shit.
they can tone it down or we will work to get them deleted... then the children will have to start new accounts.
we can get those deleted too.
its insulting someones wife or fiancee or girlfriend we shouldn't tolerate.
I don't care what they say about me.. they are scumbags after all.. but when they insult loved ones with obscene shit.. well we cant allow that.
when they call your wife a tranny or man... how does that make you feel? and these women often times read the board.
no wonder intelligent posters stay away.
PANDAEMONIUM, Jeffro and AXA.. these are the problems.
lets get the boards opinion on this.

Your clearly the boss around here with your 510 posts, mostly consisting of monsterous meltdowns.

dude i thought after last time on here going off on everyone and then calming down you decided to just relax a little bit, just have fun with it and stop taking everything so seriously, you'll have more fun.

Grab a tissue and calm down, "big" man, it ain't that serious. ::)

i agree that it's wrong to insult loved ones and family members but you shouldn't be posting pictures of your girlfriend in that type of "pose" or whatever that is, you can't expect people not to comment on a picture like that man.
-
Can't we all just get along? :'(
-
Anyone who posts pics of their Woman of family needs a Kick in the Nuts.Now if you haven't worked it out after 500 posts you may never get it.This place is a JOKE. ::)
-

I think the point is that the people whose pictures were posted (not necessarily with permission), don't deserve the abuse. Keep the insults to the person doing the posting.
-
sad thing is that they aren't kids at all. they are middle aged men who act like grade schoolers. i think they have driven off most posters. it wouldnt matter if the stuff was original and funny but its boring and old, moronic shit. they just insult and call people gay, then post meltdown pictures and the same stuff over and over. i would say that pandamoneum is the worst for doing this. he just deliberately says rude things about people - despite being obese and dressed in walmart seconds himself - and their loved ones to get a reaction. his posts are almost always the same. then you have guys like jeffro who post the same shit and its just so fucking boring for everyone else to read.
seriously, this place is being suffocated by a group of lonely, failed middle aged men typing the same shit every single day.
ron should ban them imo.
-
post in the positive board if you are so fuckign sensitive.

This coming from the sick cock craver who was posting about the size of Mustafa Mohammad's dick in another thread. :-\
Cry me a fucking river, you whiney kunt. ::)

Then why don't you tell "james0001" to stop posting your pic ::) This fruit is the one to blame for putting your pic out there. If you're pissed at us just because we make the simple observation that you look like a feminized man, well, you need to get some thicker skin.
-
any person that brings up there personal shit on there own is fair game.

You need to get some new material.

Never post a headshot. If you do, reap the consequences.
I agree that the insults are unnecessary, though.
-

Funny thing is, all this is about is saying some "woman" has the body of a man. It's not like anyone is looking people's names and calling their house ::)
You post a pic and get criticized, deal with it. How much shit did I get from my "enemies" when I posted my pic? Yet you didn't see me whine like a baby. And you never will, either.
-
Don't hate us cuz your "girl" friend is a transsexual
and you're skinny scrawny fruity looking twink
offyourself
-
You need to get some new material.
thats the problem, its just so boring. the sad thing is that no one really enjoys the shit that pandamoneum/ jeffro / chaos (when not being lovely on the positive board) / avesher do. the only people who like them and enjoy it are each other. most people keep quiet because if you speak out then they will stalk you all over the site. same old shit "bottom boy" "skinny twink" "meltdown" . i guarantee you that if you had an anonymous poll then most people would say that they are sick of reading the same shit all the time.
this place is being ruined by a group of fat middle aged losers who made nothing of their lives so they play juvenile games here to somehow try to forget the pathetic failure that is their life

The only one to "blame" is the person who is stooping so low as to insult a family member who cannot defend him/herself.
Now if she was a member of the board it would be another matter...

Um, she IS a member of this board. She is posting in this thread as "Sara."
And she's not a family member, which I totally agree is off limits under all circumstances. "She" is supposedly the ex of this dork "james0001", who dishes out more insults than we do yet get his wittle feewings hurt and complains he's being persecuted ::)

Getting along can be fun.................at times. :)
-

Exactly. This is an internet forum, people need to stop taking shit so seriously. ::)
"James001" shouldn't have posted her pics without her permission, and if he couldn't take some harmless jokes.
I have no sympathy for this emotional little whiner.

You talk about people stalking, yet the only one doing any stalking is you. You are all over this thread like stink on shit hurling accusations at longtime getbig posters. Funny that, eh? ::)
Next time post under your real name, not this gimmick. ;)
-
and being a longtime poster doesnt mean shit. since you been a longtime poster the number of posters has declined on here because you and your middle aged failure posse drive off anyone with under 1k posts by posting the same old shit time after time.
ron will sort you eventually
-
It seems you cant criticize this pegg character on here. he is one strong guy but looks fat and has shitty legs. i dont understand why its so great to be strong if you look like zz top reject?
you're quite the insult-machine yourself, "delta" ;)
-
PANDA we should stop picking on the guy....it's the best he can do, we should let him be :'( ::)
-
they can tone it down or we will work to get them deleted...
yeah. TONE it down fellas.
::)

If you can't take it, go elsewhere.
-

i have no problem with insults, just constant repetition. when someone says 'skinny twink' like a million times and posts 'internet, serious business' pics, then it's fucking boring.
its more about originality.
and pegg is fat and admits he is a bloater boy
-
free pandemonium

In a nutshell...

free pandemonium
what the hell happened? ???

yeah. TONE it down fellas.
::)
LOL
Hedgehog do these noobs NOT know what Getbig is like when they join? ::)
they should really read "the starter's thread"
-
what the hell happened? ???
???
why is panda in timeout?
-
fuck these clowns... lets get some more input on this.
this wouldn't be a shit board if they didn't run a muck.
the three I mentioned and anyone who supports them are problems.
insults are great.. fun even.. but insulting a wife/gf/fiancee shouldn't be tolerated.
only a cowardly piece of shit does that.
these guys are pathetic... speak up board.
your own fault for being an idiot and posting her picture on the hottest girlfriend thread
you asked for it
now you're melting down everywhere
-
I can't believe Panda is in time out for this. ::)
Say goodbye to the Getbig of old fellas, can't joke around with anyone or they run to the mods and put you in timeout.
It's not like personal shit was posted, James posted the pics at his own risk.
Next he'll be pulling a "Johnny Vegas" and seek legal action for the "big meanies" on the internet. ::)
-
WHY THE FUCK IS PANDAE IN TIME OUT? There are people here who do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING they want, but Pandae goes in time out? Are you fucking kidding me?
This is just like that bullshit that happened with Matt C. Fucking retarded double standards.
-
???
why is panda in timeout?
AXA you could be next inline for TO.

asdfasdkjfnasjkodfgfnjko asdfgonsdfjognoasjga

Honestly my Girlfriend gets insulted and I have never even posted a picture
and this noob posts the pic HIMSELF then melts down
HIS OWN FAULT
he is an idiot
-
I could be wrong, but I think the line the Ron had said shouldn't be crossed is making fun of someone's wife or GF and someone who say is dying. Other than that it seems that just about anything else is tolerated which leaves a helluva lot of other material to use as insults.
-

so when chaos and goatboy say things like "your girlfriend is BJ ing all of europe" I should go crying too?

-
nigger.

I don't know if disgusted is black or not but you should NEVER use the N word >:(
-

If you r bothered by it I guess, but would it really bother you if he did? ;D
-

keith does post alot of very explicit and DISGUSTING pictures
I don't even know where he gets them from or why he randomly posts them
he is bored I guess ???
-
dude that is very racist >:(
I don't know if disgusted is black or not but you should NEVER use the N word >:(
disgusted is a grand wizard in the KKK.
-
If you r bothered by it I guess, but would it really bother you if he did? ;D
No, I'm not bothered by it they can say whatever they want...and they do
they don't even know what she looks like
there is a difference between me and James001
he takes "internet" too seriously ::)
-
nigger.
Yeah that word too I guess, unless it was being used in a sentence without prejudice such as " I think that the word migger is wrong to use as a racial slur".
-
disgusted is a grand wizard in the KKK.
;D Yep, I can pass for black as long as I'm tan enough.
-
nice job goatboy for deleting your post
"it was only limited to italy, right?"
LOL getting rid of all evidence are you?
-
We need to rise up against the infidels such as "james001" and "DeltsaForce." Time to band together and get rid of these whiners once in for all.
They seem to be able to dish shit out, but they cant take it.
-
Off to Starbucks. :)

EXACTLY
they DISHOUT all they can
but don't like it when they get it back?
how many people did James001 insult in a matter of minutes?
I mean if he can't take it he shouldn't be on here
Chaos bashed me for months, and still does
we're cool now, but at start it was...you know how it was ;D
-
Off to Starbucks. :)

You're taking this too seriously. If you're confident enough in yourself or your loved ones you wouldn't get so angry at a few online insults.

when they call your wife a tranny or man... how does that make you feel? and these women often times read the board.
no wonder intelligent posters stay away.
PANDAEMONIUM, Jeffro and AXA.. these are the problems.
lets get the boards opinion on this.
You need to get over it. It's really not that important. When you're on GetBig, just laugh at the funny shit, ignore the stupid shit, and then go on with your life. End of story.
-
You're taking this too seriously. If you're confident enough in yourself or your loved ones you wouldn't get so angry at a few online insults.
The ONLY reason I even started insulting the guy was because he started with me FIRST
calling everybody on the board a "moron" is a sureway to get insulted back James001
here is an honest tip that I had to find out the hardway myself:
if you don't like being insulted here, stay on the positive board
-
You're taking this too seriously. If you're confident enough in yourself or your loved ones you wouldn't get so angry at a few online insults.
Exactly, thank you for your wisdom and support in this matter, "BigBobs."
I think it's the board consensus that "james001" overreacted, and gives people shit but cant take it.
-

we should find some of the things he said and post them here
in his 500 posts most have been epic MELTDOWNS
am I wrong everybody?
all he does is come on here and meldown ???
yeah.. because this board is a very important place.
I post here because its amusing.. but you're a tool.
nobody want to be bothered with you.. you're just a low life.
if he is "amused " by this board why does he ....... ::)

look at the thread he is melting down in
he even said he doesn't "give a shit what Ron does"
-
james-just relax-sit back and enjoy the ride
-
Thanks, I've had pics of myself or gf being made fun of, but never cried about it like this guy.
Exactly, your a true man and can take a few jokes, unlike whiney "james001."
Plus, your girls were actully good looking.

You say something like that, but look at the responses in this thread alone, there are alot of people in this thread that I attack and that attack me, that are ripping you and "jamesI'mawhinybitch001" apart.
If you're going to cry abou what's happening on the main board, post on The Positive Board(which has been mentioned) or go somewhere else, nobody wants to hear a sniveling baby.

how was the garbage route? ;D ;D
-
James001 says hi ::)
I didn't even know you had a complaints board. tell them they can kiss my ass.
-
I have no problem with James001, but his posts consist mainly of insults and bragging.
I'm not so sure why he thinks this would constitute a "positive, intelligent poster".
Many are like that, and I think it's funny as hell. It just might piss other people off.
The insults are unnecessary but not unexpected.

He posted a picture of his ex naked on the bed, claiming how he fucked her in her ass, acting like he's Mr. stud. ::)
What do you expect, of course he is gonna catch some flack for that shit, this is Getbig.
He took it a little too much to heart and melted all over the boards for hours, it still continues on as I type this.. :-\
-
It appears there are some issues...
-
It would appear that there are things
-
It would appear that there are things
Agreed.
Multiple things.
-
I'v heard some thangs
-
I'v heard some thangs
I too have heard some thangs.
-
I too have heard some thangs.
I don't speak jive, but i have heard of some things...
-
well what have the kids been up to?
I've never insulted someones woman.. I'll insult you.. I have no problem with that.
AXA, baby jeffro and chaos just randomly insult.. or try to insult. its grade school shit.. it consists of three things... insult the girl.. claim meltdown.. or the inevitable - you're gay.
saddest shit I've see on any board. you guys deserve abuse..
though I do find it extremely amusing I can get them in an uproar so easily...
I'd say I'm so deep inside their heads their dreaming of me now...
you guys are like puppets.
continue on.
As I said, I have no problem with being "insulted". Generally, I think it's funny, sometimes annoying.
And I agree that the insults towards the girl were out of line and unnecessary.
However, your original post was about how "positive" and "intelligent" posters are driven away by such insults, suggesting that you would be such a positive and intelligent poster. I can't comment on your intellect of course, but judging by your posts, I would neither classify them as particularly "positive" nor "intelligent".
-
understandable.. your opinion is every bit your right.
the abuse towards the women was my entire point.. especially when they read the board.
so I'll just come around and be even less positive to select assholes around here.
its a switching of gears for me if nothing else.. my work is very involved and often times tedious.
so reaming these clowns on a regular basis will actually help me.
and what the hell.. if you see bullshit - attack it. otherwise you end up with boards like this...
do you ever sleep?
-

so I'll just come around and be even less positive to select assholes around here.
its a switching of gears for me if nothing else.. my work is very involved and often times tedious.
so reaming these clowns on a regular basis will actually help me.
and what the hell.. if you see bullshit - attack it. otherwise you end up with boards like this...
LOL
this guy melted down for 26 hours straight :o
Ron, do we have a new record? LOL
-
Ron has always been partial to the ladies and no one ever said this place was a democracy.
that being said if you post pics don't be a whiney little cVunt when you get your chops busted.
guys like sev,xfactor,bigbobs...all got abuse over pics of girls they posted and they didn't melt.
-
not for a while... I often stay up for days... drug free unfortunately. insomnia.
I've got 4 paintings I'm working on.. and they have to be done soon
you're gonna age fast dude. . .
although the oldest woman in the world who im not sure if shes still alive would stay up for 2 days and sleep for 2 days.
-
oh.. strong words there. whine? what I do to you isn't whining.. more like anal rip... executed with a hot curling iron.
I like to play with you guys... I'm sure you'll be a blast.
off to paint kids.. chat later.
Anal rip,please ::) ,actually you do nothing but bore me :-\.all I'm saying is that you need to have thicker skin here on Get Big.
-
Just go back in this thread and check out his posts, they are all pure whiney drivel, what a fucking bitch. :-\
It's just laughable when he posts, he's utterly delusional. He thinks he is "owning" people... ::)
-
I didn't think being such a cry baby biaaaatch was even possible :o
he hasn't even slept
constant meltdown for 28 hours straight
do we have a record or what? ???
-
Yea, I've never seen a meltdown of this magnitude, this one truly takes the cake. :o
-
lets get the boards opinion on this.
Being an anonymous troll who spends time throwing insults at people for the sake of trolling seems to be a time honored profession on GB, which is a shame. Here's my macro thoughts for owners, mods, and users of forums:
Successful Internet Forums For Owners And Users
By Will Brink
As a student of human nature, as well as a long-time forum member and owner, I am in a good position to offer some general thoughts (call it a rant if you like!) and guidelines regarding ‘net based forums. I guess I am as qualified as any to comment from the user’s side of the equation. Currently, I read or post to a least a dozen forums per day, some revolving around my line of work and others related to my hobbies and interests: fitness, health, bodybuilding, longevity, weight loss, audio-video, military, law enforcement, firearms—to name a few.
I can also comment from the owner’s side, as my two forums—Fat Loss Revealed and Bodybuilding Revealed—have over 10,000 active members. Not the largest forums on the ‘net for sure, but not small time either.
This article is not about how to market a forum to “drive” traffic or anything like that. Rather, this article is concerned with the culture of a forum, which directly impacts its long-term success. These comments are based on what I have seen and experienced, as both a long time forum user and owner, about the major downfalls and mistakes that ultimately lead to unhappy members.
Forum Culture
Every forum has its own culture. That culture always starts with the owner of the forum. It’s a direct reflection of what the owner does, or does not do, with their forums, such as the moderators (mods) they choose, how much power the mods are given, how much personal control the owner maintains, how active he is, and so on. The forum reflects the personality, values, goals, etc. of its owner. The “buck stops” with the owner of the forums, as he is literally the captain of the ship. As an owner, if you wish to run a successful forum long term, you should be on the look out for the following problems.
The Member Cabal
The member cabal is inevitable on any forum, but it’s not inherently a negative. All it means is that a group of long term “regulars” have formed their own clique. It can be a helpful, productive group that’s supportive of new people coming into the forum, or it can be highly damaging. It’s up to the owner of the forum and the mods to keep an eye out, and keep firm control over the member cabals that form. The type of cabal will be a direct reflection of the forum’s culture, which reflects on, as mentioned above, the owner of that forum.
“Beating up the new kid”
This is a logical transition from the above, because it usually, but not always, involves the member cabal. Many forums have a culture where every new person is “initiated” or generally hassled, simply due to the fact they are new to the forum. I recall one forum I visited regularly, which had a guy with an avatar that said something like “I sh&% on the new guy.” Mods, as representatives of the owner, should not tolerate this behavior, as—if not cut off early—it will only grow.
It’s the perfect way to assure a small group of people run the forum, and if it’s not prevented early on, the owner can literally lose control. New members looking to join won’t when they see the abuse, or else it will turn into one of those forums with a few active members and a bunch of lurkers, as few will actively participate due to the abusive member cabal. On the other hand, a friendly member cabal welcomes and accepts new people, and helps the forum grow.
On my forums, for example, my “regulars” are one and all friendly, helpful, and welcoming people. That’s because I have great mods, and make sure the forums are always going in the direction I feel they should, based on my overall guiding philosophy and principles.
The Moderator Cabal
Similar to the member cabal, but potentially much more damaging to a forum, is the moderator cabal. Again, it’s pretty much inevitable such a cabal will form when you have people working together, even if it’s a virtual work space. And again, there is nothing inherently wrong with it, but the owner of the forum needs to keep a very close eye on the moderators. Pecking orders, cliques, etc. will form, and unless the owner of the forum keeps a tight handle on his forum, it can quickly get out of control. I have seen forums where there was more drama behind the scenes with the mods than could be found on the forum! Like any office space–virtual or otherwise–the culture starts from the top down, so the owner must put time into the back end of the forum, as well as the front.
I know too many forum owners who have let their mod cabal essentially take over their forums, chase off members they don’t like, chase off, or generally harass, other mods they don’t like, and so on. The owner of any forum who takes a “hands off” approach will have a mess on his hands sooner then later. I spend at least a few hours per day on my own forums making sure they’re all running smoothly, supporting members and mods equally, and assuring the ship is heading in the direction it needs to, as reflected in the mission statement of the forums.
To finish my point, and continue with the ship analogy: big ships develop a great deal of momentum, so setting the course early, and making small adjustments, takes less energy and time than attempting to alter course once that ship has gotten it’s full momentum up.
“Mod as God” syndrome
As the member cabal section transitioned perfectly into the “beating up the new kid” section, the mod cabal transitions into this section. The “Mod as God” syndrome is, without a doubt, my personal peeve. It can be all the members of a mod cabal, or an individual, and it’s very destructive to any forum. This syndrome appears to start when a mod decides the section they mod, or the forum itself is their personal fiefdom. These mods often set different standards for themselves than for the members. Like the member cabal, they may insult, belittle, or generally hassle a member they have taken a dislike to, and if that member attempts to defend themselves or respond, the mods will ban them or use other penalties at their discretion.
This double standard is damaging to the morale of any forum and unacceptable behavior by the mod(s) in question. It’s also a very common problem on many forums where a mod has decided he or she has additional rights above that of the members, and their word is law, even if they are often responsible for the problems.
A similar issue is favoritism, where one member can say or “get away with” far more than others. Mods should be objective and fair; once they decide their word is law, they are no longer able to objectively carry out their jobs. Again, this comes about due to the owner of the forum not being the true overall guiding influence on the forum. The only word that is law on a forum is the owner’s—period. However, if the owner is not an active participant, and/or allows mods to abuse members, then sides with the mod (even when it’s obvious that mod is way out of line), he loses authority and credibility with the members.
The forum ultimately suffers. Productive members of the forum will leave, the cabals will stay and grow stronger, and the forum will cease to be relevant within its intended niche.
Now in the spirit of full disclosure, I have been banned from forums. A few times temporarily (though I will generally not return to that forum anyway), and a few times permanently. I’m not proud of that fact, but I am also not the least bit ashamed of it either. Whenever it’s happened, it was for one of the reasons I mentioned above.
Personally, I simply will not tolerate the “mod as God” syndrome as either a member of a forum or as the owner of that forum, and when a mod attacks me—or is clearly being biased or playing favorites—I will let them know it. I will not tolerate it on my own forums, and if I feel a member is right and the mod is wrong, I will side with the member. That has never happened on my forums, however, and that’s because I’ve stepped in long before it ever got to that point. I don’t put my mods in a position where they have to defend themselves, and they know I will deal with it well before that.
The members of my forums know I always take a fair and objective approach to the issue or dispute. It’s part of my mission statement, and is an essential component of a healthy, successful forum.
The Missing Mod Syndrome
There are also forums where you know there are mods somewhere, but you can’t figure where, or even who, they are. They don’t seem to do any actual moderating, don’t keep the forum running smoothly, and may show up to lock a thread after some flame war has been taking place for days or longer. These “hands off” mods and owners tend to end up with a ‘free for all’ type forum. There’s nothing inherently wrong with that if that’s what the owner wants and the members enjoy, and such forums have their own niche, but they are not for me and not what I recommend owners strive for. They are generally a big mess of flame wars, member cabals, and a waste of time for those people who actually want to talk about and read about relevant topics that such a forum pretends to offer.
Conclusion
One or more of the above pitfalls can produce what I call “Toxic Forum Syndrome.” The forum is sick and is in need of fixing. Obviously, prevention is always better than treatment, so it’s best to be proactive and “hands on” as the owner of a forum, rather than reactive. Members of forums will probably recognize the above categories from forums they visit regularly, which should help them decide whether to move on, or attempt to be part of the cure vs. the problem. I identified these problems over many years as a member and user of forums, so when I decided to start my own forums, I was fully aware and prepared to avoid them. So far so good…

fyi - my skin is plenty thick. the issue was about abusing the gf's... thats just low.
so whoever does that.. I will abuse. if thats not you.. disregard.
you need to chill out james

post somewhere else
who gives a fuck what a bunch of anonymous posters say
get over it - it aint real life
-
its not being insulted its the fact that there is clearly a group of 5 or 6 guys who are unemployed, angry and bitter middle aged failures who come to a bodybuilding site just to cause trouble and act like pathetic teenagers stalking new posters and calling them gay whilst they quote each other and pretend its really funny. it's not and i bet the majority are bored to death of pandamoneum, chaos, avesher, quakeroats ruining the place

what about gimmicks ::)

James, from the pics I saw I think your girlfriend is quite pretty, and I also think it's nice to see you defending her and all that obviously your heart is in the right place, even though you are melting a bit too much. Better to not post pics really, can't just post pics in the 'hottest chicks' thread on GB and expect all to agree. No worries though, seems you two are happy and as uber ghey as this is, that is all that matters.

Whoa, dude, chill out. You rag on me for being negative, why don't you check out the hundreds of posts I've made on the training board encouraging the younger guys and trying to help them out with stuff I've learned over the years.
I've noticed almost every single one of your 90+ posts are attacks on longtime posters. You cry about people not being positive enough, yet your entire account revolves around dissing others (case in point: your non stop stalking of jpegg, ragging on his physique, his wife, etc). I think you need to can it with your gimmick account.
Just my 2 cents

Yes, whoever is running the "deltsaforce" gimmick is blowing smoke trying to fly under the radar. Non-stop attacks and insults coming from that account towards longtime members.....strange how some new account know everything about certain long time posters. ::)
Someone should be running a cross reference on that accounts IP.

I wonder if it's "Pumphard" :-X ;D
