It's bloody scary that I actually agree with Sleazy about something.
Silly question, but does anyone ever click on sigs, let alone the other stuff stuck up around the place? When someone writes a half-way imaginative recommendation into a post I may go take a look, but the rest I treat as spam and avoid like the plague.

I'm not saying he isn't or doesn't. I'm waiting the man's reputation, on GFY, to speak in his defense.
DUUUU, many new posters know who i am before they come here. You, no, but you're an idiot.
You call everyone sheeps in this thread.
You're the fucking PUSSY.
If you were any kind of a man instead of some attention-craving-keyboard-warrior, you would just walk away.
Its not that hard to make a fucking point instead of whining like a baby.
Leave, dont look back.
But you cant do it, you'll be back tomorrow, whining like a little bitch and flexing your ego.
You have about as much conviction as one of the wheels of the chairs my fat ass is sitting in.
Be a fucking man, walk away.

This is one of the fucking gayest attempts at advertising, by pushing this IN YOUR FACE BS.... what will anyone accomplish...esp since we are all a bunch of WEBMASTERS who have at least half a brain to not go clicky clicky everytime we see bright colors and fancy banners....
ARS Allways seemed pretty cool in my book, but this is just extremly gay...
I wouldent mind pop ups, because then we could at least block it...and not have to see it every single time

i'm not whining for the reasons you think dumbass. - and don't for one second think I don't think you're a total fucking dumbass. I'm not impressed to have a sig FORCED on me and all my past posts. even if I walk away that remains.
This dog, is dog, a dog, good dog, way dog, to dog, keep dog, an dog, idiot dog, busy dog, for dog, 20 dog, seconds dog!

Lol, oh no, you called me a dumbass! My life is over...
I understand your point clearly, all am saying is:
What are you actually going to do about it?
That's what it is all about. If you dont act, you're just a punk.

Sleazy you are a moron!! Thanks for proving that!!
Maybe you can ban Lensman and Marc De from you 3LIT3 party!
Make big money on your Domains! Why wait 40 days to get paid with the other guys? Parked.com pays the most for your traffic, and cuts checks twice a month!
Wow. Advertising at a whole new level of G Force on the eyes.
I love ARS, but Marc whoever selected this hideous puke green branding color for you needs to seriously have their eyes examined for color blindness. And I'm not saying that jokingly. Puke green is not a color that brands well with people and I've been studying marketing for 26 years.
So how do you best express your discontent at something that doesn't sit well with you? Crying and stomping your feet all night long like I've seen on this thread and others won't do it.
Just take your eyes elsewhere for the time being. I have tonight.
"Hi. This is my First Post on Oprano."
Gosh, you gotta love Democracy on the Net. At the click of your mouse, you can change your Vote 24 / 7.
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.
Who knows he may be getting paid to whine. Just look at all the thread views. SD just made ADS all the more popular.

I'm glad were talking about this. ARS and their dialer, ADS, are the top companies in this industry, if not #1. GFY wouldn't partner with anyone but the best. After all, just look at the corp. sponsors for Webmaster Access.
The inline button is nothing more than an ad spot.
Why every third post? So it would appear on most scroll areas.
Why there? It's an unused area. Would you prefer a 468x60 in between every third post? I think not. And no one thinks you put it there.
Functionally, the rest of GFY is totally the same, it's just aesthetics that changed.
Lens, you know I've supported GFY since I started her. And I'm not against new and creative ads and revenue sources. But I gota say I'm disapointed in you over this. (the ad on the left hand side of every third post)
My whole point is that you're making it look like individual posters endorses that company. It doesn't matter how good you think they are, no one has the right to speak for someone else. I always thought that was theme here from day 1.
That's why the space was valueable and that's exactly why it shouldn't have been done.
I'm sure you don't appreciate it when someone else speaks for you, yet looking at some of the posts in this thread that's exacltly how MANY people other than me preceive this .
I personally feel it's wrong, and I for one am VERY disapointed in your judgement call there and hope that you can step back and see that this may have really offended a lot of people here and correct the situation, as you may not have initially looked at it in the same light as others did.

Sleazy... I doubt he would take it down. May make a note of it for future campaigns. But it's a lost cause man.

actually mark is quite open to other options.....notice he added a disclaimer to the ad already.
once again I'm not against creative advertising options and I feel Lens DESERVES to make money from GFY. But understand, I don't don't want to be sceen as endorsing something I didn't authorize, and a lot of others think like that too.
sure it's happened on other boards before, but that's one of the reasons I don't post to any other boards. In FACT I don't think I've made 5 posts in total to ANY other board ANYWHERE other than GFY.
first time i saw the ad i thought it was some1 from the company posting....
ITS FUCKING GHEY....
SIG TOO SMALL! Maximum 1200x600 button and no more than 30 text lines of ALL SIZES and COLORS. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 6240x4800 instead of a 1024x800.
Never forget, its the People that make a board what it is.
Its the People that hold the power to determine its success or failure.
Yes, you control it, you own it, you can flavor it however you like, but at the end of the day, remember always its the People who are the true Landlords, because without our eyes and our words a board has nothing.
And of course it should be noted, the dot com graveyard has many plots still available.

Viva La Revolution !!
Who will lead the GFY sheep to freedom ?
We need a messiah !!
I haven't read the full thread, so sue me. Just the first page. But here's my thoughts upon seeing this for the first time only a few minutes ago:
To brand something that heavily is nothing new. Look at the bottom of Yahoo and MSN emails "Do you Yahoo? Brought to you by Yahoo mail." That person may have nothing to do with Yahoo, is not making money off that marketing, and may not even like their yahoo service. And yet, the advertising is there. And these things are understood.
It's an attempt to find a spot that isn't yet "blind" to advertising. Nobody looks at the top inch of a page anymore, because they just expect to see banners. It's a mental commercial skip function. So they're trying to put the banners somewhere where they will be seen.
If it keeps the board free, and helps defray the bandwidth and administrative costs, what does it matter? Everyone will quickly realize that nobody here is actually associated with or "pushing" the Adult Dialer Solution. Your sigs are still intact and fine, and people will still click on them.
I doubt that this is "the end of GFY as we know it." Seriously. The day that people stop asking girls for titty shots and telling each other to GFY and starting huge flame wars.. that's the day that GFY will have ended as we know it.
