    Anybody else find that GFY has become close to useless?

    It's all because of sigs.

    I used to come to this site and most threads were interesting or had some value.

    But now almost every thread on the front page is worthless. People are just trying to put their sigs out there, and then each worthless thread gets 30 or 40 one-word responses by other idiots trying to get their sigs displayed.

                  thing that annoys me is that, when you start a serious thread, it gets like 3 replies and ends up on page 3 within 10 minutes

                                        This isnt 2002/2003 anymore. Like everything else, GFY has evolved. There are still lots of webmaster forums out there that are strictly moderated and categorized with very meaty threads. For the most part, I find them dull and boring though.

                                        GFY is the #1 webmaster board on the internet for a reason. They must be doing something right.

                                            He's not complaining about seeing people's sigs. He's complaining that the sig whores have made this board useless with stupid threads and useless replies. Turning off sigs won't change that.

                                              been using that for a while now lol 'see sig' posts are retarded

                                              plus it helps the overall load time of a page here

                                                    One thing this thread does is make me wonder what the fuck we are doing here.

                                                    you dont like sigs ????? without them webmasters wouldn't find new progs to promote.. you dont like one word answers because you think its just people putting sigs up.... but because there is so mush shite and very little business in comparison thats what people have to do to get sigs exposed

                                                    we cant all afford to have our own skins and banner spots etc on here yet so thats how we start to build our business...or is that the real problem.

                                                    You got yours so fuck everyone else....

                                                    the real problem is there is too little business here and too many people talking shit... If i have had ten affiliates sign up to our shitty little one site (that converts very well BTW) from here i would be suprised...

                                                    what is it you actually want this site for ?????

                                                        It depends on the day. Some days I feel as if I am loosing brain cells here lol and others I actually learn something. A lot of it has to do with surfers leaking onto the board.

                                                              His problem is with sigwhores posting stupid threads and posts. He's complaining about the same thing you just did, lack of business and too much bullshit.

                                                                                          I used to come to this site and most threads were interesting or had some value.

                                                                                          But now almost every thread on the front page is worthless. People are just trying to put their sigs out there, and then each worthless thread gets 30 or 40 one-word responses by other idiots trying to get their sigs displayed.
                                                                                          So combat it by posting something interesting and of value...
