I personally don't see where it's a problem if a legitimate argument breaks out on any thread, but I do have a problem when say, one of the contestants post a pic and then some lameass shithead comes on and completely trashes her. It's juvenile, it's hurtful, and if he did that at a party in person someone like me would put him through the fucking wall in about 3 seconds. Why should they get away with it just because they think they're "safe" behind their little keyboard and anon nick?
People just need to focus on what they DO like, and forget about feeding their need to run down the ones they don't find attractive. There's a huge difference between saying "she's not my cup of tea" as opposed to saying something like "What an ugly tw*t!" and the like.
There is a lot more riding on a contest like this than what most people realize. I'm sure Lensman is expecting a good turnout of new faces, industry people who haven't yet checked out GFY but will come for the contest etc. It would be nice to not have all those people completely alienated but rather the contest be fun and well-run and enjoyed by all. That would actually attract more quality posters who are actual adult industry types.
I'm quite sure that publicity is definitely part of the goal for holding such a contest.

you are of course right.. it would be nice.. but would it be profitable.. I find myself coming back to gfy and posting more readily that on any other board, posting on the others is a chore.. posting here is fun..
I've asked myself why it's fun.. it's not because I learn anything, or even that there are more posters here than almost anywhere else on the net.. If I'm honest about the reason, it's got to be because of the constant drama, and let's face it, there wouldn't be as much if it weren't for the idiot posts that fodder the drama. Without them, it would be just like any other board where there are informative and intelligent posts by "quality posters".
Gfy is unique, it's like sitting ringside at a demolition derby. Take that away, and it's just another board
