Have you ever not hired or worked with someone over something they said on the boards

**polish_aristocrat** · 05-11-2007, 10:38 PM

hired or also not used their affiliate programs etc?

**CDSmith** · 05-11-2007, 10:42 PM

I'll congratulate you on your 30k post now

Since it's past my bed time.

**Deej** · 05-11-2007, 10:44 PM

not yet, i would hope everyone would understand my shit talking especially since its very limited...

**Sly** · 05-11-2007, 10:49 PM

Nope....

**janosik** · 05-11-2007, 10:50 PM

yes ... few days ago ;)

**Jamie** · 05-11-2007, 10:54 PM

Real life can be different than the boards. 80% of the people on gfy are assholes.. but IRL most are cool cats.

I prefer to hire outside of the boards. Train the potential from the ground up.

I second that

But as far as your question goes... Who give a shit what someone does on the board? It is what goes on outside this place that really matters...

Only a few uber tools I would not do biz with based on board personality.

if its any consolation, I just took my Lamictal ;) haha

**HighSociety** · 05-12-2007, 04:05 AM

more like how they act. I have a huge list of people to stay away from

When first impressions are made in text, you don't get to be picky pal. You could learn a lesson or two about this yourself.

**LadyMischief** · 05-12-2007, 04:26 AM

And yes I have made those kinds of decisions based on some people's posts.. There are some people, board persona or not, that really don't deserve my business, and what I see them post on boards just reinforces that (or sometimes makes me dig a little deeper and avoid disaster).

**BucksMania** · 05-12-2007, 04:28 AM

well people no, but programs, companies and so on, i always research about them on the boards first

BT · 05-12-2007, 05:22 AM

if they make a bad presence on the boards just imagine what their hi gene is like

**selena** · 05-12-2007, 05:33 AM

There are programs and people that I won't personally do business with because of how they or their reps present themselves.

While this is just a board, when it is the only representation that I have of someone, then that is what I go by.

**V_RocKs** · 05-12-2007, 05:42 AM

I wouldn't put it, "something stupid they said or did," but would instead say, "acting stupid."

GFY is like liquor and when people get to feeling too comfortable they often show what they are really made of here.

If someone is an asshole on the boards, then that just shows you how they are, and I deffinatly wouldn't want to work with someone like that.

You are a prime example

**Sarah_Jayne** · 05-12-2007, 06:27 AM

Yes, there are people who represent themselves so poorly that I just instinctively keep away from their ventures.

Alright, so let's talk about my blogs- some have very good domains and pr... besides crazy people need blogs, too.

I think you nailed it...

**jayeff** · 05-12-2007, 08:18 AM

Certainly there are people I would not work with because of their board personae. People get to choose how they behave on a board, the same as anywhere else, so board characters either reflect the individuals or the people to whom they wish to appeal.

I agree with that. I am looking for a designer to redo my website and I have had people from here send me requests. I will not hire them because of the wat they act on here. Yeah I expect some fucking around, but some people go way to far on here. If you are a looking for business on here then act like a professional, being a dick will get you no where in the long run. If you know of a good website designer let me know. I am also considering having my blog redone as well.
