thats xxxoutsourcing he posts on every board every day every second

I see that I'm dealing with a moron here.

stfu and go back to sleep.

You guys missed the funny part.

He is the same as the kid "silent thunder". He posted 3600 times in one contest thread last month. At the end of the contest, he posted to collect his prize money, he accidently used the wrong username.

He changed to spideriux or whatever because he was busted chatting with himself to win the contest.

pretty sad really.

Yep, that's why he started posting over on that other board...paid to post. That didn't last for long after seeing how many post the guy could actually make :1orglaugh

I agree with you at all.
THERE ARE MANY kids from Lithuania right now, and all that shit starts to stink!!
I really can't understand some morons(read n00bs), which posts a LOT. They are posting only in those contests threads and nothing else. They are simply useless!! And they post here only for money!! Fucking idiots!!
Huh, I really get pissed when I see those pathetic n00bs, which are members for a month or so and they post 100+ per day, ONLY IN CONTESTS THREADS!!

Pathetic and poor, indeed.
:disgust

Pathetic...

shit not even 1200 for me and been here a while
k gave up for a while
tried the real world instead of posting

but had to come back

everytime I try to get out.. GFY PULLS ME BACK IN!!!!!

anyone else see the irony ?

P.S.
beta-tester, Russia =| Europe.

Yeah right Russia, LOL :)

Im from Serbia bro...what's up ?

50..........

beta-tester just wants less competition, lol.

LOL Manowar :)
Yep you're right :pimp ROFL....

I just want to get rid of those cheaters :thumbsup

Yeah, those contest threads bug me. I think contests should be allowed, but there has to be some sort of limit.

I am open to suggestions.

I agree with you Lensman. There should be a limit. Something like 50 posts per day max allowed per person, or something like that ??

Maybe arrange contests based webmaster skills and not on "whoever can post the most, wins".

Yes that's good idea too.
Something like: "Provide some proofs that you're successful webmaster, provide sites which you run, etc, etc. And after that you can participate in this contest".

shut up already.

Have the competition owners at least make sure that active affiliates are taking part, but then you face the problem of the programs lying so their thread just gets packed.

They should at least by slightly webmaster orientated by rule, instead of just a post frenzy. Posts are ad views, but some of those threads exploit ad money out of the board by taking it to the max, It's cool to have one once in a while but not like 10 on the front page at once.

But what do I know, I'm just a postwhore :winkwink:

bingo....

crazy shit

Even worse.

Affiliate Programs sponsoring the contests should come up with their own contest rules that are NOT based on the amount of posting.

Lensman, an easy way out: place a ban on contests that are based on posting.

Right now, these contests serve only 1 thing - to have the promotion thread on top of page 1 for weeks (because of all the constats bumps).

Come up with a liberal prices for sticky threads - for example, $1000 for a 10 day sticky thread.

This way you make money, and post whores are discouraged from posting thousands of useless posts.

DarkJedi is the fifth ninja turtle.

sticky threads for 10 day would be worth far more than that

btw the original contests were like "every 500th post wins $100" and now it's like "the user with the most posts in this thread wins $500, thread is valid for 30 days etc"

Well, I was hoping the contest participants would police themselves and "out" any of the cheaters and surfers. I've tried to do that to some degree.



A good and easy rule would be to qualify for a contest, you must be registered at least 6 months etc...

Instead of announcing prizes ahead of time like top poster gets 200 bucks, 4th poster gets 300 bucks, have it random and announced at the end of the contest.

Anyone signed up after feb 2005 should be banned

Do away with the most posts part of contests.
The part with the prize at post number such and such are ok.
Lenman should also charge sponsors who want to put on a contest a fee for letting them hold the contest on GFY.

Or at least look at them really closely and make them prove they are in the industry and were in the industry before before the paris thread.

No more than 2 posts in a row should do it.
More than 2, disqualified.
Person with 2 accounts, both disqualified.

And forcing people to be registered for 6 months would defeat the ability to get new members to the board for contests announced elsewhere (such as a programs support board or whatever)

Anyway, I mostly ignore those threads if they're based on raw VOLUME of posts. Thats just ASKING (literally) for people to post as much as possible..

No thats bullshit.

Stop all posting contests allthogether.
They are pointless anyway.

if your free to go golfing this weekend Lens, I'll give you some suggestions

stop crying

Another funny thing is the people right now winning all the post count contests are a husband and wife owners of a design company. Also, there "employee" of their company is coming in 3rd.

I'm talking about 20,000 post in that last two months.

their design site: = Unfinished.


Would you let your employee post 10,000 in a contest thread if your main source of income was unfinished.

Sure doesn't make me want to hire them

Perhaps its time to get rid of "would you hit it" threads.. Don't spam your content on the boards buy an ad spot.

News threads.. Honestly who needs 50 threads about the latest current event. Even surfers know how to get to news sites. Why does the same thing have to be posted over and over.

Fake personalities should be killed as well. Its against the rules to have more then 1 account. Why do these fake personalities get to post in every thread acting like idiots.

I hit x amount of post threads.. What the hell good are those? They should be banned.

Fake drama threads.. 80% of the board is made up of these. Always 2 webmasters fighting, calling each other names, threatening each other etc. These should be banned. Take it to email or the phone.

:winkwink:

I fear if all that was gone, we would only hear crickets chirping.

are you angry because we want to stop posting contests ?
i see you have nade a lot of posts in the last contest thread.

No just making a point. All things need to be monitored and regulated.
