Good to read you're still around Coach. You've helped me a lot in the past. Thanks again, made a big difference for me. I'm very grateful. (no homo).

To be fair, this has to be a labor of love for Ron at this point, so we'll have to deal with some hiccups. I'm happy to have it, old internet seems to be vanishing by leaps and bounds the last few years.

Are you kidding?  The first thing I bring up on in my browser is Getbig because it always loads instantly.  The forum software is so simple and robust and there are few sites on the internet that load as fast as it does.  I get the there are times when it's down, which can be confusing considering how few posters there are now.

Big thanks to Ron for keeping it up all these years.  He could have pulled the plug long ago and we all know it.

You must be kidding.  Most popular websites are owned by massive trillion dollar tech companies.  Getbig is a desktop server in Ron's basement.  It's an unfair comparison.  Getbig has no advertisements and Ron isn't harvesting our data to sell to other companies.

Remember, if it ever goes down for a while, we all meet to regroup in Hankins' Facebook comment section.  If that doesn't work, the second backup is the Youtube comments section of Vince G's latest Flea Market video.
