          search engines aren't too difficult to code with php and mysql although 6 million posts is more data than i'e ever dealt with
          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 like JBM.
                              Congrats to Brad and MFM.

                              MFM doesnt like me I know.. We crossed paths one night at a stripclub 2 nights ago, he asked who I was, felt my shirt, guessed its brand name, and guessed it right (which was bizzare) looked at me weird, and then just stood up and left as I had just sat down next to em in hopes to finally get to know em.

                              Never came back.

                              Bizzare..

                                  Anyhow, congrats to the crew for the award. JBM is a great place to hang, and it seems the hitbots/postbots of postwhores isnt the epidemic it is here. Maybe who ever judged this award looked at quality as a large factor.

                                  Hopefully GFY addresses this problem of postbots and 10k posts in 2 weeks in those mega long thread issues soon.. Clearly any thread that is 200 pages long in 1 week with smiley posts and nonsense posts throughout are postbots of whores inflating thier post count. Threads need not to be just locked but deleted..

                                  Its an epidemic here for sure, something that was brought up to me many many times by people at internext. Someone needs to send out a memo that I dont work for GFY, but yeah I agree it is a quality issue that needs to be addressed.

                                  Could be easily fixed by deleting those mega long threads.. Post counts of botters would be corrected instantly by a click of a button by any adminstrator.

                                  Anyhow congrats to JBM. GFY will always be home for me, sad to see they didnt win. But its no secret of the quality issues that face the latest epidemic here at GFY. Clearly an easy fix.

                                  GFY will win it next year.

                                    That would require a mod that spends more than an hour a day here and actually does something usefull.

                                    Take a look at the sigs in this thread then take a look at the rules. People dont follow rules when nobody enforces them, and when they do enforce them they do it backwards.. ( i.e. i have had my paying sponsors sig removed a half dozen times )

                                      You make it sound like an impossible task.
                                      It has been done in the past around here.

                                      Currently there are enough mods here at GFY as it is.
                                      Total all thier active minutes here per day and i can only assume it totals over 60 minutes a day. Maybe...

                                      Anyhow, it only takes a few minutes per week to delete those over inflated threads, and by deleteing them the postcounts of the members using postbots would be in line and checked.

                                      The current behavior of turning the cheek towards this problem has created a quality issue here, and 10k posters in a matter of months from indviduals no one has ever heard of around here has become a problem.

                                      An easliy fixable one.

                                          yea, not being able to search sucked

                                          Often times I wonder why
                                          There's love and hate, theres live or die.
                                          When sickness comes I must decide:
                                          When feelings go, theres suicide.

                                              Take a look at the sigs in this thread then take a look at the rules. People dont follow rules when nobody enforces them, and when they do enforce them they do it backwards.. ( i.e. i have had my paying sponsors sig removed a half dozen times )
                                              Yeh, we've all said this a million plus times. Many of us made strong attempts at getting shit fixed around here, but the mods never made it to the threads. Hundreds of bumps for the mods, but you realized that none ever responded to the issue at hand?

                                              But then again, if things were setup right ... it would be alot more quiet around here.
                                              Without the surfers and without the random bullshit, this board would move slow and new threads would be cut in half.

                                              BTW: Is it me, or is the search not up to date? It's not returning recent threads for me.

                                                With his face all over the place 100X/day and the sheep backing him, I thought it was a good thing? Guess I'm missing something.

                                                Honestly I dont mind the fun and the bullshit, but it gets old after the 1000th time. New material is needed for 05.

                                                With all these retards trying to brand a word or a certain look, it just gets too obvious.

                                                            I'm pretty sure the reason is because XBiz is lame, that would be my first guess.

                                                                        I, like many others, know what is wrong with GFY. Here's a short list.

                                                                        I'm constantly shocked that Lensman et al would allow known scammers to remain on the board. When several webmasters have been screwed by the same person, they need to be run out of the business instead of being allowed to change their name and return with a new name and a new scam. Other boards will ban your ass and make fun of your mother if you are a scammer. Not true with GFY.

                                                                        Some of the infantile, WAY off-topic crap that goes on here.

                                                                        Selling sigs and ESPECIALLY pay-per-post (see "Vitasoy") will be the death of GFY unless something changes.

                                                                        Last but not least, news whores and anti-American trolls (see "directfiesta"). News posts are absolutely useless and people should get banned for repeatedly making them. Yes some controversial topics get a lot of views and replies but what good are they? Usually we just end up calling each other names. Is this allowed to continue because it generates so many banner impressions and sig views for advertisers? Threads like that just need to be locked immediately and I'll bet they stop.

                                                                        Surfers. If someone is obviously not a webmaster, they should be REQUIRED to show a URL or two of sites they own. No URL, no posting. Period.

                                                                        Wipe out postcount.

                                                                        Make a 10 character minimum for posts.
