Lensman - idea to stop surfers and fake nicks on GFY - Page 2 - GoFuckYourself.com

S P A N N O W · 02-23-2005, 01:11 AM

50 Fake Nicks!

Rui · 02-23-2005, 02:59 AM

Lensman - are you actualy thinking in implementing something like this?

erehwon · 02-23-2005, 03:21 AM

Sounds good!

nickjcuk · 02-23-2005, 03:39 AM

How about having 2 boards, one for the webmasters and one for the surfers.

Trolls=Page Views=Ad $$$

You can't let it be a free for all or else the serious webmasters will go somewhere else.....but for the most part the trolls are good for business.

Negative... as it stands now, your ads are going to 20% webmasters and 80% trolls.. I'd pay a higher premium to access a group of serious webmasters.

pay someone on here that needs the money $1 or $2k a month to do this every day.

noone needs INSTANT approval on a new nick name - and waiting 24 hours to get approved will help to stop a lot of fake nicks too and allow for ip cross checking.

just an idea

Like only sending the password to an email address posted on an adult site, effectively guaranteeing that only adult webmasters get accounts.

I wouldn't even say 20%...

brutus · 02-23-2005, 05:21 AM

Not a bad idea at all... There has been recently so much of carp out there that !!!

I could do that too, but I agree, if this has to be done correctly, some $$ incentive would be nice.

Trax · 02-23-2005, 06:17 AM

been saying exactly the same thing forever....

TurboAngel · 02-23-2005, 06:27 AM

That by far is the best thing anyone has come up with. I would love help do this.

Anything to stop your constant complaining

Peaches · 02-23-2005, 07:33 AM

Some folks make $$$ off the surfers. Including Lens since advertising fees are based on page views

Pornopat · 02-23-2005, 07:44 AM

This is the only nick I ever registered. I will register some extra now though.
If this plan gets reality I can make money selling gfy names.
Juicy are you listening? You can get filthy fucking rich selling all those extra nicks!

$5 submissions · 02-23-2005, 09:51 AM

Good idea. Hell, I'm down for the paid posting privileges idea as well.

12clicks · 02-23-2005, 09:53 AM

Its page views and volume.
The idiots wondering why GFY doesn't manually approve people are no different than the dopes telling TGPs not to give away free stuff.

Naughty · 02-23-2005, 10:25 AM

Why do many people think this is a hard job to do?

It'll take much less time than gallery reviewing, and even that is easy. Not like there's 200 new members daily on GFY.

view new members > check their website/job > (dis)approve

If GFY has 50.000 members now, that'd mean only ~30 new approvals a day. If it has WAY more members, I'll shut up ;)

axelcat · 02-23-2005, 10:26 AM

good idea

I sadly have to agree with you on this one...

good idea ... let's do it.

I think this idea has merit, and will help keep the riff raff out of here.

I have the same thought.

At first it would but once people realized that they aren't going to get an account instantly (like the idiots who create a new nick every few days) I bet that the number of registrations falls dramatically and would then take less time.

MetaMan · 02-23-2005, 12:13 PM

i was surprised when visiting a surfer friend his computer has GFY as his homepage. and to browse the board now you NEED a login, kinda makes me wonder. i should have wrote down his login to get his ass banned. cant people find a surfer board? or chat on AOL like normal simpletons do?

psili · 02-23-2005, 12:15 PM

Can't a user just be verified by their email address? It's a no-brainer to say this user from webmaster (at) SomePornSite.com is less likely to be a surfer that another user from dickhead (at) hotmail.com .

great idea, i also think if someone comes on with multiple nicks, ALL of them should be banned, that would be a good deterrant

I know what you are saying Peaches, but if the views were proven to be all webmasters/support businesses for adult, then lens could charge more, and I think that most advertizers would pay more.

It will stop the surfer morons from registering but certainly won't stop the fake nicks.

Basic_man · 04-15-2005, 05:57 AM

Sounds like a good idea to me.

all new registered nicknames are being moderated now...give one a try...you get the email and confirm andf then when you come back you get a message that says a moderator has to approve all new nicks

Doesn't mean they are being moderated.
They just turned of auto-aprove and don't accept new members.
