The overwhelming need to make a profound statement - GoFuckYourself.com

Amputate Your Head · 07-11-2003, 02:12 PM

I find it interesting, yet I'm not sure I quite understand it yet...

something like the Visa crackdown happens, and suddenly all these people feel they need to say something that will be agreed with. It usually goes like this:

"This is why Visa is doing this... it's the fault of this, this, this, that, and those people. Here I will talk about some philisophical stuff. I will offer my opinion on the overall impact here. I will close strong with a popular and favorable, albeit cliche line or two about the future."

and then lots of people post to provide support and thumbs up for him standing up, being a groundbreaker, taking a stand, and making such a bold statement.

Then the next guy tries to outstate the last guy with a more powerful and moving thread.

interesting indeed...

Do we need to say & hear these things as a form of security blanket perhaps in these trying times of uncertainty? No one around to reinforce us, so we do it for ourselves?

anyway.... just my observations.

And for the record, I have no statement to make whatsoever.

chowda · 07-11-2003, 02:14 PM

say something man.

Juicy D. Links · 07-11-2003, 02:15 PM

When is Diners Club gonna make there statement?

What I find really interesting is how several of the "big boys" have been forced to make changes in their business models because of shady activity, and yet everyone is ready to congratulate them and say "hey, good job!"

Uhh... hello? "Good job"? For what? Fucking it up for everyone else? Yeh, ok.

Like I said before, this is the perfect opportunity for some of the smaller niche sponsors to take a big step forward. Triple X Cash, Boob Dollars, etc. are just a few of the many programs out there that have quality content and great sites.

I'm not blaming the cookie cutter sites with shitty content... maybe I would have done the same... but to come away acting like angels? Come on...

Philosophical stuff, opinion, and a strong close with talk of the future:

Actually, I had no idea I'd get the warm reception I did on that thread, I was actually trying to stir up some shit and have a pissing contest.

I'm bored

Its because I'm selling post templates...

My templates are some of the most controversial, hard hitting posts out there...

With a simple search and replace you too can have an opinion, a theory, and seem intelligent.

For bulk pricing, check out the "post whore" package, and for a limited time I'll throw in my "Longest Thread" template for those in need of an xbox... Check out www.posttemplates.com

Dopy · 07-11-2003, 02:51 PM

They are only trying times if you followed the crowd.
What you never had you dont miss. I have only ever used revshare and stayed with sites that keep members for long periods. Maybe its not made me so much money but I can afford to take time off and get a life.

So again

More whiners please, its making my day

how's this for profound Brad...

Your desperate and failing need to be seen as someone important to those whom you profess to be beneath your inflated and hollow stature is so transparent that it's actually possible to see that it stems from your own self-loathing manifested by the stark reality of your own inadequacy.

I'm not 100% sure but I don't think I've given any of the big boys pat's on the back.
If I did I made a boo boo. I have thought's on way they have done somethings and it ain't nice, but It does put more money in there pockets. Don't get me wrong most people I know in this business got in it to make money, it's just the way some of'm go about it and some of the stuff MOST people agree with them without thinking, talk about sheep. I would say that's kind of kiss'e ass, and for why I have NO ideal because they wouldn't piss on you, me or them if your guts were on fire and You can bank that. And most have a memory shorter that my cock.
Got Some very good sales people in porn, the big boys do. They would do very well in main stream sales, IF they were able to keep there hands out of the cookie jar.
