    Not the right domain for that
    Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
    think about that

      GFY is still alive because it REFUSED to change

      Sadly, when marketing forums change, they usually end up dying.

      DP changed, they are dead.

      WaFo changed, they are dead.

      WiFi changed, they are dead.

      BHW is still alive because the changes they deploy seek to enhance users' existing experience instead of a radically new model.

        What's funny is you just proved my point, you work hard on this, so it must be worth it.
        And you're doing it without a 3 letter domain and the help of all the people of GFY.
        nah fam, the profit is probably important too don't you think? you can't make money on model fan sites because the margin is razor thin.

        i made about $3 an hour on that project.

        the thing you aren't seeing is gfy does not attract models. its not avn. there's 3 regular models here. it also does not attract fans. that's two uphill battles no one around here wants to fight for gfy.

        your entire business plan is based on the 3-letter domain. you keep bringing it up, but its just a domain. there's many failed 3-letter domains.

        a successful online biz takes a team working thousands of hours. you must think it will be a volunteer army? where's your investment?

        i'm not being negative, i'm being realistic. someone will have to build and manage this thing while you're staring out of a windshield all day.

          Would be cool if GFY expanded and did some new stuff.

            they did a lot more when the industry was excessively profitable. gfy awards, free sweatshirts and hats, etc. this front page would cycle 3-4 times a day.

            one thing i'd enjoy is more video conferences. the ynot conference during rona was cool. most of us are working in the dark coding shit. its fun to see other webmasters and talk about webmaster shit.

            that's the audience here. its not models.

              As GFY sits now, yes it doesn't attract models. Why it would need rebranding separate from the forum.
              The current state of affairs where we have a president that's known by three letters, FJB , proves yes you can promote a three letter domain differently than just a domain.
              You're thinking in the box, throw out the box.

                              The industry is always changing, you have to adapt and overcome as my stepfather would say all the time, yes he was a Marine.
                              This isn't about the adult webmaster industry, this is about using two outrageous domains for more than a redirect.
                              Let's say we got gofuckyourself clothing line running and got a couple rappers to wear them in a video. How many people would want GFY swag.
                              Then instead of just using GFY.com as a redirect, put it to work and develop social media for adults only, an onlyfans style plugin so models have a direct line to clients.
                              Make it so they have to spend $1 on a credit card to join to keep all the Karen's from complaining and then we can track users. If they misbehave, they can be effectively banned. Yes they can do that.
                              I could go on and on about it, but letting those great domains sit as a redirect is a waste.

                                Thanks, way back when I was with Playboy I asked why sex.com didn't become a social media site.

                                  I was doing well up until the mid 2010's... then when my kid was born and I quit doing cocaine, I found it hard to want to sell porn! I swear, I lost the edge and interest in selling porn.

                                  Got it back now after the NIGHTMARE of fucking COVID in Canada... goddamn... I could never work for someone else anymore. At any time they could bring back the "vaccine pass" and I could be fired from my jobs, again.

                                    Being a trucker protected me from the same bullshit, being an owner operator makes it pretty hard to get fired.
                                    I literally can't run out of work because I deliver food.

                                      I remember that many members where summoned (I bet you as well) when the new GFY administration took over and nothing happened after that.

                                        So I got him balloons, tied to a bottle of Jack Daniels, he was ok with that!
                                        Or is it because there are so many people here now that are not in the industry and driving trucks and such? Just sayin'.

                                          I have two websites (mainstream) in production, GFY has a mainstream section. Never assume , you'll probably get it wrong
                                          Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
                                          think about that

                                            I remember that many members where summoned (I bet you as well) when the new GFY administration took over and nothing happened after that.
                                            I was never summoned, but rarely read the emails from the address they have. I came back on my own accord and saw that nothing, literally nothing had changed.

                                              Guess they summoned those who had no idea what to do with the board (such as myself) . . .

                                                        Some of what I propose actually comes from things they were talking about while Texas Dreams was running the show.
                                                        The board software actually has some social media plug-ins available.

                                                                              i made about $3 an hour on that project.

                                                                              the thing you aren't seeing is gfy does not attract models. its not avn. there's 3 regular models here. it also does not attract fans. that's two uphill battles no one around here wants to fight for gfy.

                                                                              your entire business plan is based on the 3-letter domain. you keep bringing it up, but its just a domain. there's many failed 3-letter domains.

                                                                              a successful online biz takes a team working thousands of hours. you must think it will be a volunteer army? where's your investment?

                                                                              i'm not being negative, i'm being realistic. someone will have to build and manage this thing while you're staring out of a windshield all day.

                                                                              #

                                                                                DP changed, they are dead.

                                                                                WiFi changed, they are dead.

                                                                                BHW is still alive because the changes they deploy seek to enhance users' existing experience instead of a radically new model.

                                                                                          yea i think it requires higher level talent to run any site competing with OF.

                                                                                          the models have to stay engaged and adding content. verification is pretty easy these days. its the onboarding and continuous engagement that takes daily work. your average outsourced 3rd worlder can't do that work. they can barely do Amazon returns.

                                                                                          model engagement is in addition to daily traffic work. that part can be outsourced if it doesn't take too much brainwork. then you trade time for cost, which increases daily.

                                                                                          OF has many issues, but traffic and engagement aren't on the list. we're out of the sandbox now with fan sites, which means it takes a decent size team and budget to pull it off.

                                                                                          small biz in this industry always has to be looking at the next thing. get in early before the behemoths buy or destroy the market. then get out.

                                                                                            Not trying to be mean, but maybe you should listen to that guy who tried explaining to you how dumb of an idea it is. He had more patience trying to get through to you than most people would have.

                                                                                            1. Who is your target demographic, if they want to wear clothing that says "Go Fuck Yourself" on it? Edgy 13 year old kids, and people who live in trailer parks. Not exactly people who will be spending a lot of money.

                                                                                            2. Turn GFY into onlyfans? I don't think I've heard a dumber idea on this forum, and that's really saying a lot.

                                                                                            3. Having a 3 letter domain and an idea is not easy street to money. Everyone has a million ideas. Ideas are worth exactly ZERO. It's all about execution. You can become a millionaire today starting a business like cleaning if you can execute properly. Not everything has to be a novel tech idea.

                                                                                            I don't even know why I'm writing this. It's such a stupid idea it doesn't even warrant an explanation about why it's stupid.

                                                                                                  Not trying to be mean, but maybe you should listen to that guy who tried explaining to you how dumb of an idea it is. He had more patience trying to get through to you than most people would have.

                                                                                                  1. Who is your target demographic, if they want to wear clothing that says "Go Fuck Yourself" on it? Edgy 13 year old kids, and people who live in trailer parks. Not exactly people who will be spending a lot of money.

                                                                                                  2. Turn GFY into onlyfans? I don't think I've heard a dumber idea on this forum, and that's really saying a lot.

                                                                                                  3. Having a 3 letter domain and an idea is not easy street to money. Everyone has a million ideas. Ideas are worth exactly ZERO. It's all about execution. You can become a millionaire today starting a business like cleaning if you can execute properly. Not everything has to be a novel tech idea.

                                                                                                  I don't even know why I'm writing this. It's such a stupid idea it doesn't even warrant an explanation about why it's stupid.
                                                                                                  Its monumentally stupid but its a good “idea” when you have no actualy practial experience building a huge project.

                                                                                                  If 3 letter domains and easily brandable names were a huge key to success,
                                                                                                  Sex.com, porn.com, etc etc would be huge success stories. Yet none of them are?

                                                                                                  Is it because of “lack of vision” or “imagination”?

                                                                                                  No. Ifs because pulling off a successful brand or social media site is way fucking harder than just having a good name and having a few rappers promote you.
