    Why would the definition at GFY differ from anywhere else?

              Maybe I'm not a webmaster by GFY standards?
              My day to day job does occasionally involve fixing glitches. I went to school for it, and before I started working here I did manage a few sites, but to be honest the site I work for now is so over my head.

                a webmaster is someone who makes webpages. I work on web pages daily.

                An "adult webmaster" seems to be any one who works in the adult Internet industry, be it sales or what not.

                        Hmm. Most of my views were based on what the person knows and what they could do. Example knowing the html/php/mysql, building traffic, converting the traffic. Graphics editor being a plus and so on.

                          And for the surfers. Spending your time on GFY doesnt make you a webmaster.

                                      Yes it is true. the definition of a true webmaster is someone who can submit galleries in between changing out fry baskets from the deep fryer and answering the drive thru headset....

                                      that is what I consider a webmaster. we hire only the best.

                                            Is this why it takes so long to get my order? the fry guy is waiting on the hun to approve a gallery first? I knew something was up!!

                                              Webmaster is a superhero. He was bitten by a radioactive spider, which gave him superhuman strength and arachnoid powers such as the ability to climb walls without equipment and shoot webs from his wrists.

                                              He is a powerful force against evil in New York City. Evildoers, beware the Webmaster!
                                              Sleep well, and dream of large women.

                                                      Webmaster? That would be someone who has web creation / programming/ designing skills.

                                                      Webmaster as a short term for "adult webmaster"? That would be someone who makes some money in this industry.
                                                      I don't use ICQ anymore.

                                                            I think it's said best by modifying the literal definition:

                                                            web·mas·ter ( P ) Pronunciation Key (wbmstr)
                                                            n.
                                                            A person whose occupation is designing, developing, marketing, or maintaining websites. (As posted by bdjuf)


                                                            Should read as follows to be accurate:
                                                            web·mas·ter ( P ) Pronunciation Key (wbmstr)
                                                            n.
                                                            A person whose occupation is designing, developing, marketing, AND maintaining websites.

                                                            ..........

                                                            A true "Webmaster" is the sum of ALL of it's parts. Not a single part individually. Someone who solely "designs" is a "designer". Someone who "codes or develops" is a "developer", someone who "markets" is a "marketing rep or sales associate", and so on and so forth.

                                                            A "Master" by definition is someone who is a worker qualified to teach apprentices and carry on the craft independently. Now pertaining to the word "webmaster", when broken down to it's parts means:

                                                            web - Internet
                                                            master - A worker qualified to teach apprentices and carry on the craft independently.

                                                            And combined means: A worker of the internet qualified to teach apprentices and carry on the craft independently.

                                                            .......
                                                            Now, it can be argued that someone who "designs" is a "webmaster" since they "work with the web" however, the "web or internet" is not solely comprised of designer output. It also requres networks, coding, marketing, search engines, sales, and so on for it to to function in it's current state.

                                                            So to "master" the "web", one must be skilled in ALL areas of the internet to truely be considered a "webmaster".


                                                            "I'm selflessly supporting the common good, but only coincidentally looking out for No.1."
