You Got A Great Tour, But Your Member Section Sucks - GoFuckYourself.com

Fletch XXX · 02-17-2005, 01:52 PM

This is one I have wanted to write for a couple weeks now.

In hommage to "Sloppy Seconds - you got a great body but your record collection sucks," here is the latest CH33RS article:

You Got A Great Tour, But Your Member Section Sucks

if you care to read it, take a look.

if not, post a picture of your balls for me.

lickmymonster · 02-17-2005, 01:59 PM

no balls for you

Fletch XXX · 02-17-2005, 02:18 PM

no balls?

Great article.

We gave up on tours and just let the user browser a fully functional member's area with no access to the content. 1. Because designing tours was lame and time consuming. 2. Tours suck.

Nice.

and yes, Ive known people to do away with tours as well. Have worked with some companies that decided to do that ;)

People are too stuck in routines to actually "think" - and those that DO - yield a greater reward.

Others do "tours" while I do "presentations"...

Others may be "Rappers" but I am an "MC"

jonesy · 02-17-2005, 06:32 PM

what bugs my nuts is when an owner (usually clueless) of a site puts in their

about a tour, members section shit even content, makes you change it (even after a lenghty cordial conversation about the pros and cons of why not to change it) it looks like shit and you cant use anything for your portfolio, plus it not getting members because of the stupidity of a know it all owner.

then the bitch has the balls to complain about low memberships and low page views .... then doesnt acknowledge - after a tour and members are redone the right way - that memberships are up due to rediesign but something else which makes no sense.

nofx · 02-17-2005, 06:37 PM

Its funny, I belong to _1_ site. I've had the membership for years 'lifetime membership'. I login every once in a while to see if they've updated it. Nope. Oh, pardon me, they took down the movies, and everything else is upsell. Good domain too, fucking waste if you ask me. (for the curious, its live-teen.com )

MiLo · 02-17-2005, 07:49 PM

Heh, nice one, i was just listening to that record, coincidence?

"You've Got A Great Body, But Your Record Collection Sucks"

I think I'm gonna go home, 'cause you just ran out of beer
And there's nothing you can say that'll make me wanna stay around here
You're lying there half naked
But these tunes you're playing just won't make it
You got a great body, but your record collection sucks

You got every Tom Cruise film soundtrack ever made
They might get you off, but they ain't gonna get you laid
Modern country and gangsta rap
And what's with all this New Age crap?
You got a great body, but your record collection sucks

I'm afraid that I'll never learn to live
With what you call "alternative"
Unplugged albums and charity projects
And bands named for inanimate objects

But I gotta go now 'cause you just put on "The Wall"
Don't try to phone 'cause I won't return the call
I could never fall in love
With a member of a record club
You got a great body, but your record collection sucks

I'm afraid that I'll never learn to live
With what you call "alternative"
All your unplugged albums and charity projects
And bands named for inanimate objects

"All the great love songs that only two can share
On one CD for the first time anywhere"
You can save 'em for another guy
"Operators are standing by"
You got a great body, but your record collection sucks
