    I can't keep up on GFY anymore

    Is there anyway gfy can have a business section and a bullshit section. Politics section, religious section.

    Hell I would be happy with a business section and a bullshit section

    I look at it now and my eyes are tweaking

    I think its time gfy has more categories otherwise a lot of important shit is going to get skipped over.

    I look at GFY everyday and I can?t keep up anymore

    Or am I the only one who feels this way.

    Wooo hoo I'm the first voter.
    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.

        there is way to much bullshit now at least have a seperate section for business topics and a bullshit section for those who like to gossip etc.

        but personally I feel like I'm missing alot of important posts because I don't have time to filter thru it anymore its just to much now. at least for me it is

                            I said it once and I will say it again. A paid business section $10 a month, just enough to keep out the curious. This is becoming a big yahoo group with nudie pics not at all what it was like when I first got on it .

                                Creating divisions is a good idea in theory, but I would be willing to bet that people would still post most things in this forum (including business).

                                People tend not to adapt well to change or follow instructions.

                                    I think if there were a business section where sponsors posted updates or webmasters posted gossip about business it would be very popular.

                                    it just needs to be inforced by gfy. I don't think it would hurt GFY just make it more apealing to the webmasters who are trying to make money and keep an eye on the industry.

                                    Plus I bet there would be less sig whoring going on

                                    I'm tired of trimming the fat I just want to get to the meat of things. LOL

                                      I kind of like it the way it is.. but without the search function I'm finding it near impossible to keep up.

                                        I agree,

                                        There needs to be something done to seperate all of the bs from the business.

                                        This place is getting insane.

                                            there still is alot to bullshit about the industry

                                            at least a buisness section would filter out non buisness posts.

                                            I hope this is something GFY will consider?

                                              The business section is at JBM. I come to GFY to kill time and see what all the kids are doing. If search worked, I might consider coming to GFY for business reasons but it hardly seems worth it anymore.

                                                I totally agree I don't think GFY wants to push there business webmasters/Sponsors away. but I see it happening JBM is becoming the business section I would rather just go to one place and sponsor one place instead of a million boards.

                                                  Yup, GFY is the playground and JBM is the office. The other boards don't get enough activity for me to bother.

                                                      Bah, this is business place.

                                                      Whinning about "We need a more conducive area" is bleating.

                                                      Face it, many boards have tried "Business sections", "Tech discussions", "Graphics Forums".
                                                      They just don't work.
                                                      The reason why they do not work is for the simple reason that "The Piss Must Flow". It is inevitable and in eventuality it turns into a spam fest anyways, at first it's a guised effort and it widdles down from there.

                                                      Besides who is going to seriously start pushing Traffic for sale or design for sale or what have you without it becomming "Spam" in the eyes of competitors...

                                                      Its a collision no matter how you fuck it.

                                                        this board is big enough and ready for sections of interests

                                                        the reason i sponsor this board is for webmasters who are in the business of making money.

                                                        I think it would be a great move if they don't I'm moving on
                                                        It's not that I don't like GFY but I just can't keep up with the board anymore just way to much non buisness topics.

                                                        Maybe someone at gfy can filter out the business related topics and put it in a new section for the webmasters to view who are just interested in business related topics.

In the last few days I've seen people posting biz (and newbie crap as well though) questions in the Q&A area, not get any responses (because few people are reading it) and then reposting it over in the fucking around area.

                                                                          The Q&A area could be used for biz but no one does. Maybe if all the biz oriented stuff migrated over there it would justify a different forum.

                                                                            Unfortunately I have money to make and don't have the time any more to wade through posts by semi-literate 14 yr olds who should be in bed and GFY is now full of them
