              Ok better clarification, I thought ICS was paying per post not that using sigs that ppp are ok.

                I think the tone of GFY changed a while before pay per post came to be. I enjoy the interaction of the board, working from home I miss that but its not as serious of a business board as it was when I first got on it.

                  It's not the ppp that's bad, it's the fucken idiots who have no life, do no other work, and spend 15-20 hours a day posting ignorant shit in every single post on the board, that ruins it.

                  I don't even have sigs turned on, so I have no clue who's being paid. But I damn sure know who starts to annoy the hell out of me when I have to read some stupid ass comment from them in every thread I open, which 99% of the time is some meaningless string of words.

                    PPP is fine. I think more of a selective process might need to be made if it continues. Some people post normal regardless of PPP, but others make their living off of their sig, which is sad.

                      If the kids werent being paid .30$ per post, there wouldn't be so much crap posted here.

                        Definitely. That's really what I meant. I don't think ppp is bad. There are lots of people doing it properly. They post normally and I honestly have no clue who's getting paid. It's those dumbasses who take the ppp deal then post like a lobotomized retard 27/7, instead of actually doing any work, that ruin it. Kick them out and it would be fine, I think.

                          I would say just increase the word count. That would slow them down but then you would just have a longer more meaningless post.

                            I thought it was ok because of the 5 word per post rule, but it's obviously being abused by a few people...I doubt they'll get paid though and it should be better next month if Lensman decides to run it again.

                              I do that without getting paid. That's still ok, right?
                              ..and I'm off.

                                    Unlike ARS, there are very few posters with pay per post right now. It's really easy spotting those who abuse it.

                                    Anyway, those abusing it got the message.

                                        I think he's reffering back to the Dark Times... when GFY was not GFY but just another business board.

                                          GFY was PPP once, then ARS sig whores turned it into shit and Lensman banned PPP. After that the situation somewhat improved.

                                          Now sig whores are starting to take the board over again.

                                                I think the price on Pay per post for lensmans program will drop next month, but not be gone for good, because his program premiered this month, it was all over the board before its premier, and after its debut it continues to be all over the board for its first few weeks.

                                                Lensman is one smart cookie and understands the value of marketing, yeah there are people pushing his sig for 30 cents per post that are kindof abusing it, but in the long run it doesnt matter because strangers wandering in and out will see that sig all over the board, in every thread, all the time, and thats the whole point behind it.

                                                the majority of people who come here are looking to get into this business. to learn about what sponsors exist, how to build sites, traffic, etc...now odds are most of them will fail or just fuck off on the board but the numbers that do have low to moderate success, no matter how small, still add to his bottom line.

                                                The advertising money from his banner spots alone pay all the sig costs I imagine, and this site is just a tool, a plaything for him, his real money is adult.com. Its all about that bottom line, and the 30 cents per post deal, on the eve of his new programs premier was a smart move, no matter how people choose to promote it, he wins. Go lensman

                                                sorry for the long post, didnt mean to exceed my 5 word limit.

                                                  I don't think it's terrible.. you have a couple of tools that post just for the $ and don't contribute to discussions at all.. but it's not really THAT bad.

                                                      Anyway, those abusing it got the message.

                                                        Pay-per-post should be limited to 25 posts a day or something like that, with only one account per poster. Otherwise the board becomes even more useless than it already is...

                                                                      GFY has always been schoolboy humor, fake drama (including all the BS about the ARS "sig whores") and spam. I suspect the vast majority of visitors are surfers, newbies and the people selling to them and I would guess that's exactly the way it is supposed to be.
