I, like many others, know what is wrong with GFY. Here's a short list.

I'm constantly shocked that Lensman et al would allow known scammers to remain on the board. When several webmasters have been screwed by the same person, they need to be run out of the business instead of being allowed to change their name and return with a new name and a new scam. Other boards will ban your ass and make fun of your mother if you are a scammer. Not true with GFY.

Some of the infantile, WAY off-topic crap that goes on here.

Selling sigs and ESPECIALLY pay-per-post (see "Vitasoy") will be the death of GFY unless something changes.

Last but not least, news whores and anti-American trolls (see "directfiesta"). News posts are absolutely useless and people should get banned for repeatedly making them. Yes some controversial topics get a lot of views and replies but what good are they? Usually we just end up calling each other names. Is this allowed to continue because it generates so many banner impressions and sig views for advertisers? Threads like that just need to be locked immediately and I'll bet they stop.

Surfers. If someone is obviously not a webmaster, they should be REQUIRED to show a URL or two of sites they own. No URL, no posting. Period.

Wipe out postcount.

Make a 10 character minimum for posts.
