Not only is it apparent that they are added to every 3rd post but its not a sig, its not part of your message, its in an area you do NOT control. So when your post count calls for a random statement like 'I know PK' or something like that is that liable?

This is marketing, the reason GFY exists is to create ad revenue for Lens and company.

I'm sorry you feel this way but resource sites should help brand products and this is one really effective way to do it. It is FARRRRR more effective than buying a banner that is in rotation with xx others and gets rarely seen :)

Sleazy raises a good point. No one wants to be seen as promoting a product they don't actually have anything to do with. Maybe a good fix for this would be some sort of text disclaimer.

At the cost of pissing off GFY's members?

GFY is an amazing board and has an incredible following but just like anything else something else will come out that is bigger and better. If advertising continues to increase like this people will simply stop coming back and find other boards to read.

Ludedude 11-14-2003 10:27 PM

Sleazy, get over yourself. You don't pay to be here, neither do I. If you don't like it, don't let the door hit you in the BigMac Lovin' ass on the way out.

I don't like that AT ALL.

I'd rather pay lens a regulation commision on my sig and post space and be able to promote who I choose in my own posts than have someone who I don't know and have no track record on be shown to somehow be associated with me.

infact I actually find that QUITE offensive.

I agree this is crap

Good point ... but the poster can then put a disclaimer. So both sides are happy.

This DOES put a new dynamic on sigs on GFY though. The left buttons" do take some thunder away from the marketing OOMPH of sigs.

You bring up an important point, there is no separation to state that it's an advertisment. Anyone new to the board, would assume that this individual is promoting what's below their name.

This takes co-branding to a bad level.

I figured out it was put every third post on the first thread I read, I imagine everyone will catch on. The fucking header says sponsored by Adult Dialer Solution and Lens can stick their logo wherever the fuck he wants.

why the fuck is it effective dumbass - I'll fuckign TELL YOU.

cause it's makign people think that I or someone else ENDORSES it.

regulate sigs and take a commision on them if you want to do this - but don't give someone the impression I endorse somethign that I DO NOT ENDORSE.

it''s liable. and fucking wrong.

Do you honestly think that people will see you as promoting ADS? Anybody with half a brain will see that you have nothing to do with them.

so the underlying meaning of all this is GFY stole steam from its other advertisers.
