What makes GFY attractive to its readers is the sense of community, let's not wreck it by calling people, en masse, idiots.

Just my 2 cents.
Pimplink, there was a sense of community, but the board is changing. I think half of these newbies aren't even webmasters. They fill out no profile, they start stupid threads just to get a shirt or win a DVD player. I agree with Redshoe. I hardly read anything here anymore. It's like being in high school. I'll bet half of these guys aren't even old enough to visit an adult site, never mind running one.
Because of the domain name, this board gets a lot of type in traffic. Little teenage boys find us and then act like the children they are.
What everyone seems to forget, is that this is a place to exchange ideas about our business. Yes, we have fun, but the bottom line is our work. If you see an asinine post, and you notice the poster has no profile, THEN DON'T REPLY TO IT! All you do is encourage them. These people contribute nothing to the community, they have no business being here. If someone feels they are a legitimate adult webmaster, they have no reason not to fill in a profile. it's a way of letting the rest of us know you do belong. Like DirtyHo. Who are you? Why do you feel the need to be anon? I saw one guy put his homepage as this site. This should be an indication people. You need to consider the source before you start responding to these people. If they're legitimate adult webmasters, they'll let it be known.
