First, before anyone accusses me of arse-sucking: YES I support what Robbie is saying. Here's why:
When I started a couple years ago I knew nothing about how to actually run a business. Zero. (Yes, now I know 2%.) So when I wanted to learn what to do I followed 3-4 people here on GFY. Read almost ALL their posts and threads, absorbed as much as I could. This is before I even joined GFY! I could tell by the intellgience of Robbie's posts that he was/is someone to learn from even though he's never given me any direct advice.
So, having a brain, I could discern who was full of SHITE and who had/has something to offer. Problem is Robbie no one will follow through on what you suggest.
So I suggest the following: We must police ourselves, those of us "in the biz" and we must use the ignore function to block out those we feel are NOT in this biz (i.e., trolls/surfers). Attention whores and shit-stirrers tend to go away if they don't get what they want: attention and shit. They seek it elsewhere.
So from now I do NOT want to see ANYONE with a join date of more than four years ago responding to ANY of the known trolls and surfers on here, and when in doubt (is he a troll? a webmaster?) don't respond either until you KNOW their role in the Industry.
Other than that: GFY biz as usual, sadly.
