Serious Question: Do you all realize the amount of people that read GFY? - GoFuckYourself.com

Jace · 12-07-2005, 09:41 PM

I often wonder if the people that actively post here (including me) know the insane # of people that just read GFY and never post?

if you all think it is a low #, you are sadly mistaken.....there are thousands of people that regularly check GFY and skim through the posts and barely, if at all, post.....

I was chatting with a buddy of mine earlier today, he says that everyone in their office comes on GFY at least once every 2-3 days and skims through the first few pages of threads....and none of them have ever even posted once on here

it just got me thinking, sometimes i seriously think the lurkers out# the posters

Jace, probably bunch of companies to make sure no-one is talking trash.

If you look at thread views, it should give you some idea

Spunky · 12-07-2005, 09:46 PM

Never really thought about it,I'm sure there is quite a few but probably not thousands

what amazes me about my friends company, is that they aren't even a internet based company, they are all video production, like 90% video....but gfy is an adult industry hub, that is for sure

i know of at least 10 news sites and 5 video companies off the top of my head right now that check gfy for info....all the people that work for them included....I am talking hundreds of people from these companies combined...LOL

Chris Malais · 12-07-2005, 09:49 PM

Alot of posters probobly started out that way also. I know I did.

You are mistaken. If the "who's online" feature was enabled, you'd see probably tons of nicknames with zero posts, and most likely more lurkers then registered posters.

it doesn't track gfy and gfy is #1 for adult boards.

brand0n · 12-07-2005, 10:27 PM

fuck em....

Tricksy · 12-07-2005, 10:31 PM

I can't really understand the point of ppl who just read GFY. I doubt that there are thousands of them though.

BT does not track GFY.

When I post here the lurkers are my target audience. I meet dozens of them at every major show I atttend. People that come up and introduce themselves, that have never posted here but know everything that goes on here.

I would say it is close to a 10:1 ratio of lurkers to active posters.

You are clueless. There are thousands that don't post for various reasons, including people here scare them.

gornyhuy · 12-07-2005, 10:45 PM

Hey lurkers....

See sig.

12-07-2005, 10:54 PM

that is cause you are a huge flaming homosexual

Jace · 12-07-2005, 10:59 PM

here you all go...a nice example

a while back I sold almost all my adult domains, I would say 75% of them...some with sites, some not......NOT ONE SINGLE active poster on gfy bought my shit, it was all inactive members that bought my shit up....I had 10+ sites/domains, good shit too, and all but 2 of them sold to inactive gfy members....

that is what actually got me thinking about it all, then I started asking around....TONS of porn stars that knew from LA read this board on a very regular basis, they search for their names and see what affiliates/webmasters are saying about them

xlogger · 12-07-2005, 11:00 PM

bla bla bla STFU already!

Edit: I thought you left GFY? Back after a week eh? You dont have the will power.

chadglni · 12-07-2005, 11:01 PM

Nobody remembers how many lurkers were tricked into posting when Smokey was playing with that exploit? Damn people, there are only a few hundred? regular posters but GFY is ranked sky high. Do the math.

2HousePlague · 12-07-2005, 11:05 PM

I have a perspective of this question I don't think anybody else does.
