Discuss what's fucking going on, and which programs are best and worst. One-time "program" announcements from "established" webmasters are allowed. |

Why are people so concerned with board "spam?"
Why do people find the need to care if a program tells you they updated their site?
Why do people care if a sale's rep contacts you about a new deal? Why don't people want to know what is going on? Are people intimidated that the "would you hit it" threads will find the slums of page 2? I am not talking board owners either. General posters. I want personal accounts of why people find the need to be bothered. Personal experiences of how these things have contributed to decimating your life.

If you let the spam flow free this board would be useless. It would be 98% spam threads.

See Cory, back in GFY's days, the rule of the land was "announcements only by established webmasters"... nowadays no cows gives a mooh about it anymore.

It makes people feel important when they call out "spam". It's the same reason people post timeline pics, tell you that your news article has already been posted 2 times in the past or post about how much money they made today. It makes people feel bigger. Some people grasp at anything to really "stand out" on this board. I suppose it is because there are so many people here and so many things going on at one time. Basically, it's a cry for attention. Ofcourse that's my opinion and you know what they say about those...

You know I was thinking that today, isn't part of posting on the board, is to get some business as well as getting to know people in the industry. I know I want to know about changes to programs I do business with and I like to look at replies to it.

I am glad to see that my logic is not lost on everyone. Read 5 spam threads a day or 5 drama threads? Which has the potential to make you more money? Why are we here?

What is the 98% filled with now? Again, this isn't from the board owner perspective, obvious logic exist there...I am remarking on the constant "spam" post in others threads...that is the difference...

I agree that sometimes it is great to know everything that's going on, but sometimes people take it too far and then the board is contentless.
I personally enjoy clicking on promotions, just to see what they are and such.

Man, I used to get 10 media tickets mailers a day plus a phone call and I never once called them out or even remarked in the bashing threads! They were a bit much, no doubt. But damn, why pounce on a sale's rep for emailing you or posting a thread? No one has to click on it!

Program notices do not bother me, I read them for the most part, however, cory, I have yet to see you come through on your promise of all these fashion threads. Get out the pink dog, dammit.

I amazes me as well Cory.
We are here to be involved in this industry and to make money through it. Yet so many panic at every instance of an announcement, most having to do with efforts from the announcing company to make affiliates more money! I hear the same gripes when it comes to discussions of exit consoles... webmasters who work countless hours to earn a living despise consoles, which directly help them and others to earn a living. It's as if their personal preferences are more important to them.

basically they all feel that they are too good to have to hear you. they think they are eleet and shouldnt be bothered with new exciting business offers.
sucks. imagine the money that could be made if people took two seconds to analyze a new opportunity. case in point, two posts up. perfect timing to prove my point. |

"Sure we can help you with that. Hit me up and one of our designers can bla bla bla..." I fully agree with what you're saying though. It's like people don't want to hear about something new that could possibly be a lucrative money maker for them. It's like cutting off your nose to spite your face. They are so blinded by being ready to make the "SPAM!!!" reply that they have missed what could have been a great opportunity for them. |

In the beginning the boards were created
And the boards were without form and void And the porn gods said "let there be webmasters" And webmasters came. All at first saw the light. It was good. In time webmasters spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And spammed and spammed and spammed And then the porn gods became angry The path of the righteous man became beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil spammers. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of spam darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And the gods will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy his brothers with advertisements. And you will know he is the Lord when you are banned.

I agree. What is wrong with a content producer to offer up a few pics of a new model asking if people want sets of her. Spam? I say its business, not spam.

You have a point no doubt, but: 1) I am talking more about webmasters taking it on themselves to be hall monitors. 2) I want to know what is going on. Now, I don't want them to be able to carry the same sig as me, have pinned threads, banner spots and things of that nature, but I do want to know if a hosting company that does not advertise here has a deal to offer. I buy hosting for myself. I want to know if content providers have new deals. I want to know if certain paysites update content. And if I do not want to know, I will not click on the thread and I will most certainly not click on the thread and make a complaint. Admin needs to monitor things. Other webmasters need to monitor things as well. If scam artist come in to post a product update, I say let them stay and let everyone hammer them. Let the admins make judgement calls. But people who do not advertise here themselves should not elect themselves board nobility when they themselves are of no higher stature.
