    Boycott GFY? Where are you going to go?

    All the other board are clique-ish or are slow and hardly move. That's why GFY can take advertising from un popular sponsors because they know this and know you'll be back.

          GFY is NOT the business. You can do business elsewhere. There are forums out there without surfers and gallery submitters if you just look.

            why do people always assume that if you leave a forum that there must be some other forum you have to go to?
            Did you forget that there's life without message boards?

                  If you don't see the need for industry-specific forums then my suspicion that you aren't really a webmaster and never were is correct.

                    GFY made a business decision to skin the site with another adult business.
                    GFY is supposed to be a board, for and about, the adult industry to do business.

                    Whether you like it or not, for those of us that use the board for business, GFY has the most eye balls. So, regardless of 'other boards out there', it is a business decision to remain here instead of following the sheep over a cliff.

                        Good suspicion... wrong, but good.
                        And go reread what I said. I never said there wasn't a need for industry specific forums.

                                The idea of leaving a place like GFY has never occurred to me untill now. Watching people I believe in stand up for themselves should make those of us that are serious about this business take note.

                                Accepting this skin shows either or all of these 3 things

                                1. GFY is going to be sold they wanted to show cash and traffic to increase its value on paper.

                                2. Playboy is in really in such a bad spot they are willing to get paid to sell stolen goods even if those goods were stolen from them.

                                3. That they know that nobody cares anymore and all the sheep will just let it roll on past or whine and do nothing.

                                I have been here since before the user reset of 01 and have seen many things that made me wonder why we as an industry are so self defeating. I am proud to stand behind those that do whats right in the industry and fought for us against companies such as acasia.

                                It pains me to say this but I will be at



                                Consider for yourself what you think is right and who your willing to support.

                                  No.

                                  I am simply saying that GFY has the most eyeballs compared to 'other places'. I still visit, read, post, and participate in other adult social sites. However, if you need to get the word out, sell to others B2B, and what not. GFY has more exposure.

                                  Not everyone does B2B. So for those who do not. This board is a place to troll, social outlet. However, many of us do B2B sales and development. So your approach, versus mine, is going to be different.

                                  GFY is not the end all be all. More valuable to some then others. However, it has it's place in the adult industry. That is all I am saying chief.

                                                Btw, this isn't a slam against people leaving gfy. I always support those who stand up for what they believe in. I'm just saying that there really isn't much of a alternative these days.

                                                        omg, what will the people do?

                                                        maybe, just actually they will spend more time working and being more productive...



                                                        probably not, but it was a thought.

                                                                              GFY is supposed to be a board, for and about, the adult industry to do business.

                                                                              Whether you like it or not, for those of us that use the board for business, GFY has the most eye balls. So, regardless of 'other boards out there', it is a business decision to remain here instead of following the sheep over a cliff.

All of us at CraziesCash prefer to surround ourselves with honest, loyal and hard working people as well as companies only with integrity. All you guys that want to claim that people that stand up for what they believe in are whiners and cry babies, you probably won't last long in the business or make much cash. That's a shame because there is still a shitload of money to be made and we will continue to thrive just as we have continued to through the recent economical times.

Maybe the skin's a genius move, and those whining just don't get how dumb they are by keeping the board cruising along. And yea, OP's right, they always come back.
