FACT: after 5 years MESSAGE BOARD POSTING you are likely to get....

serious mental problems..... And even if not, then you have to remember that:

Real life = outside
Real biz = done in private

everyone who posts every day on the same board and gets excited about other people's life's, or "board events" for a few years is wasting his life, and has his opportunities set wrong and he will probably regret it in future.

If you're posting here every day waiting to say "sig spot" where a big sponsor is accused of shaving, if you try to be the first one who makes a "woot, we have a new GFY skin" thread, or try to beat woj for a 50th spot.... or to see new pics of Tassy's boobs (nothing against her though) or to check out the newest Jimthefiend drama... you are most likely a loser and neither your biz is going as good as it could, nor is your social life anything close to exciting.

Oh and yes, this may be ironic that this is coming from a guy with 34k posts... but nevertheless it's still true.

There are obviously exceptions - you can be a prime sales rep, living a great life and posting here a lot, but mainly for biz etc

But the individual webmaster who neither runs an affiliate program, nor represents any company, is basically wasting his time with following all the bullshit that goes on here everyday.

That being said, I'm not leaving GFY yet... (right now, Im following closely the .xxx domain.... and later... we will see, but I will probably slow down... unless I get a better reason to be here as often as it was the case till now)

edit: Juicy's post inspired me, although he was prolly joking
