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

Hey, I didnt buy your video game either.

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.

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.

I FEEL VIOLATED.

it's a cheap fucking trick and not FUCKING FUNNY. there is a liability question as well within the industry.

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.

Gosh Sleazy,

immediately.

If you don't want to be associated with a sponsor that is randomly put under your nick and postcount, then get off GFY until the thing settles. You really think this will be permanent?

i know i have to explain things to a DUMBASS like you, but NEW people come here ALL THE TIME, and tons of high end people come here on a non-regular basis, and they can be led to believe that I or someone else endorses something I DO NOT ENDORSE.

Don't worry, I'm sure Lens will get right on top of fixing that for you. He's still waiting on his TGP VIP invite.
