      I'd bet a lot, it seems they post about 3 times on average.

      Original post, a come back to all the insults they got, and another come back.

      Then gone for good.

          It is a message board not real life. If I came in a room where people were really like they are on GFY I might be scared away.
          SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

            I find that to post on this board you have to be a somewhat seasoned webmaster...this isnt the place for newbies.
            Anyone that just shows up and posts without finding out what this place is like deserves the way gfy welcomes them
            on that note

              I would have if I took the time to read some of the posts before I initially posted.

              I wouldn't recommend any newbie to post here until they have read the board for at least month.

              I would have done things differently.
              I wasn't used to the many master bloggers that reside here.
              [hey - I own that... ; ) ]


              Hind sight is 20-20 ... oh well

                Indeed. But one can learn much from this board when starting out.

                  I'd recommend making 1 or 2 posts and not even reading any of the responses before you start making any proper posts.

                      Yes ... you can learn much.
                      I have.

                      But the newbie needs to implement filtering right off the bat now.
                      GFY is not like it used to be.
                      It's old school in a new information age.
                      Some haven't got that yet.

                          First time I signed on I thought you all were a bunch of assholes telling me to fuck off...

                          After 4,000 posts...

                          ....I now know that you are all in fact a bunch of assholes and I don't know why I continue to post here....

                            hahahahahahaha yep good point!!!

                            I surfed around this board for about 18 months before I posted!! Then I decided to go fuck myself and did!!

                            At the end of the day it's a board and you can learn from "some" of the posts here!!

                              I like you think it's fun.

                              Have at it.

                              My fulltime hamburger flipper job - keeps me grounded.
                              GFY is NOT reality ... if you didn't know.

                              Which would - I surmize - be good advice to the newbie.

                                true, but its mostly by reading some of the experienced posters posts.
                                Too many retards here for newbies to interact in any efficient way, plus the fact that they will get slammed for asking almost any question if anyone here even thinks hes a lil green

                                        It doesn't help that most new posters are spamming.
